  • Never trust an atom .. they make up everything.

    (thats true in two sense, they makeup everything as we know, and what it also implies, the myth that empty space does not constitute anything, thats what atom is lying about, its lying about empty space if we are to believe it, but our new knowledge even empty space weighs) And Lawrence Krauss says there…

  • How simple is Relativity?

    On the top line is given what people like Galileo knew. Its called Gravity. It says as you go away from center of gravity your energy increases as the force of attraction you experience goes on decreasing with the increase in square of r, r is separation of you from the center of the gravity…

  • To tip or not?

    As you read from what Wikipedia has compiled countries like Japan and Australia prohibit such. Many countries are very low tip expecting countries. But there are many not just the USA which demand or expect large tips in many different kind of services. I don’t have experience in many countries, but I have lived for…

  • Searching for the “unparticle” and other new physics at Amherst College

    Searching for the “unparticle” and other new physics at Amherst College. A new force which if exists would be weaker than gravity force which to-date is the weakest force known in nature. This new hypothetical force being a millionth of the strength of gravity would be equivalently scaled to an Universe 1 million the size…

  • The photon saga.

    5. Photon is a zero mass particle (not a zero rest mass particle) and its deflection in gravitational field, called gravitational lensing is due to two reasons; i. single photon effective mass is due to the definite energy and momentum of the same. ii. multiple photons have non-zero invariant mass, hence they behave like any…
