Black Body Radiation and Planck
At low frequencies, the black body radiation spectrum was well explained (by the Rayleigh Jeans formula). At higher frequencies, it wasn't. In fact at high frequencies, the formula predicted infinite…
Relativity – Theory of Invariants
Relativity just saws that certain physical quantities should remain invariant regardless of the reference frame they are viewed in. A Vector is invariant regardless of the frame it is viewed…
The size of a pulsar
It is not possible for the size of a radiation emitter to be greater than the wavelength of the pulse emitted. Pulse Widths are found to be 10 to 20…
It is NOT the particle that is ‘wavy’
Wave Particle DUALITY This whole idea of a 'waving' particle is misleading. It is not the whole, lumpy particle that is wavy - the particle is indeed ALWAYS lumpy. It…
Is everything in our brain also 1s and 0s
When we 'process' an image or a sound, is that ultimately composed of 1s and 0s like an ordinary classical computer? Or is there a broader based representation of images?
One Photon at a time – Quantum Interference
The Photon Beam Splitter Take a beam splitter - send the two split halves down different paths and recombine them down the road. You will see the expected interference pattern…
Amplitude and Energy in a Schrodinger Wave
Typically, for any wave, the AMPLITUDE of the wave is related to it's energy content. The Schrodinger Wave ISN'T REAL Since the Schrodinger wave is simply an informational wave, how…
A photon inside the core of the Sun
A photon generated inside the Sun's core, can take over 10 million years to reach the surface. This is because the majority of the core consists of protons and electrons…
Creating black holes and baby Universes in a lab
Take a solid sphere and compress it. The Internal High Density will cause a negative pressure (dense on the inside, pulling the outside in) This will lead to an implosion.…
