or should we let “reality” define our imagination. Unfortunately many physicists attempt to define reality based solely on what they measure and do not attempt to conceptually integrate those measurements into the realty we see around us. One example can be found in Brian Clegg book Before the Big Bang: The Prehistory of Our Universe … Read more

Deriving the fundamental constants of nature

December 15, 2018January 15, 2014 by jeffocal

Please follow and like us:

One of the most fundamental questions in physics and cosmology is why the physical constants are what they are. For example the fine structure constant is one of the about 22 empirical parameters in the Standard Model of particle physics, whose value is not determined within it. In other words their values are not determined … Read more

The geometry of antimatter

Please follow and like us:

The existence of antimatter was predicted by Paul Dirac when he realized his relativistic quantum theory of an electron yielded up twice as many solutions as he thought he needed. Two of the solutions correspond to the spin-up and spin-down orientations of the electron. So what did the other two solutions correspond to? He had … Read more
