  • What you really are?

    There is no answer to “what you really are”. Because there is no answer to “what you really are”. There is only what you understand. What you create. And its what you create that answers what you are. Because that’s what you understand. Nobody talks what your mother is really like. She makes lovely pies.…

  • The quality of a scientific paper … A casual reposition.

    The quality of a scientific paper are not ZERO if citation is zero. Perhaps we need to define two parameters, quality and significance of scientific communication. Quality; a well done research in the best traditions and methods available. Significance; the outreach of the paper to bring effect into others work and others understanding toward the…

  • Why is the helicity for a mass-less particle Lorentz invariant?

    Result; now that photons are mass-less, their energy, momentum, speed, etc are no more variables, in the sense of arbitrariness. They are constants, taking only a few values, but constant in a given situation. But other particles have these properties; arbitrary. So electrons energy and momentum are not fixed, but arbitrary. But as long as…

  • Why Bose is not the scientist after whom Higgs is named.

    A very few particles (out of 1000s) are named after scientists, eg the so called mu meson was called a Yukawa Meson, although it turned out to be a misnomer. Mu-meson was found to be a lepton, rather than a meson, as was thought by Yukawa and others. Now called Muon it belongs in the…

  • Ideas that changed our notion about the Universe.

    1. Aristotle Fallacy; A notion that objects need force for their movement. It contradicts the idea of inertia. Newton corrected this by introducing the first law, things continue in their state of motion, a quality called as inertia, without requiring force and the motion changes due to application of force. 2. Earth is flat; that…
