  • There is only one physical favor the Universe did on life.

    But all of them are not stable. We have made great strides in understanding them collectively called as standard model of particle physics which involves electroweak and strong interactions. Its a weird mess of beautiful list of particles and their behavior toward each other. Sometimes there is symmetry breaking sometimes there is symmetry and sometimes…

  • The hinterland of particle physics

    The hinterland of particle physics

    Particle Physics is collectively an effort to study the exciting world of subatomic particles and the nature of their interaction. By subatomic we mean anything that happens within the atom or below and not above. The implications could cover as much above, as it would be entailed by the precincts of natural laws. eg If…

  • Addendum to Coriolis Force; Definition of Centripetal Force.

    We need to understand first that Force can be categorized into two types. One is called tangential or collinear force. This component of the force is always along the direction of motion and changes speed of an object. It can change direction once the velocity of the object has become zero. Its NOT centripetal force.…

  • Coriolis Force; an interesting idea

    Coriolis Force; an interesting idea

    Coriolis Force The article is 5.34 K worded.  I have been thinking of writing a basic introduction, on this important physical concept — of, what’s known as a Coriolis force. It is one of the interesting ideas of physics, which does not get as much of a mention perhaps, unless you just happen to know…

  • Quantum Entanglement .. a short primer !

    This fact is inherently, nothing but the concept of Quantum Entanglement. Unlike classical particles which are completely independent of each other the quantum sized objects are not. For physical intuition they are at a very small and subtle level intertwined with each other as if threads are kind of tied onto each other. We can-not…
