  • Still some gravity !!

    So talking about gravity fondly I have made a remark “Its not gravity that makes you fall”. You would be shocked as if you fell down but its not due to gravity but something else is at work, Am I a Physicist propounding a phantom theory? The actual statement I made is “Its not gravity…

  • Gravitation and Cosmology: Principles and Applications of the General Theory of Relativity by Steven Weinberg .. review

    A highly sofisticated and an elegant text book on general Relativity and its application. I would say a super book. I have read this book and solved for now a few daunting problems in Physics by applications of the content in this book. My research is available on my website but for context I recommend…

  • The new glitch in OPERA.

    ( UPDATE, 19.11.2013 — Establishment here refers to the standing of Theory of Relativity in making speed-of-light as 2.99 x 1,00,000 kms/second, therefore they have attacked speed-of-light hypothesis and a cable glitch doesn’t take away their claim, as their claim was made on the basis of Physics in their paper, the glitch only deletes one…

  • The relation between 3 anomalies of OPERA, FLYBY and Pioneer.

    The very nature of earth-based gravitational effects is, at-least a fallout in the order of mm/second and application of Quantum Mechanics in case of OPERA apparatus brings out this inherent truth clearly. One would see at minimum a (+ or -) mm/second order excess beyond speed-of-light = 1, no matter what. On the other hand…
