Did Newton know Quantum Mechanics?
My insight of the day. Quantum Mechanics makes Newton’s Law consistent in its two forms. Otherwise they would be inconsistent. So Newton knew some QMech. He knew 1. F=ma=mdv/dt and 2. F=dp/dt. These two are consistent in a framework where wave-particles are central. Because F=ma corresponds to particles and F=dp/dt corresponds to waves. I will…

Triangles and Particle Physics !
Phase Space. When we deal with what we call particle physics, we always have to bring into discussion; whats a phase space. Its the most basic thing to do, in that involvement. Its like each time we make pizza we have to think of whats the dough and whats the topping. At-least the theoretical and…

The Discovery of Subatomic Particles by Steven Weinberg .. review
I own this book but haven’t read through much of it. Excellent history of particle physics. If one aspires to write books for Physicists and allied scientists one shall follow the ethos behind such book .

The nature of Physical truth and our approach to find it
The Unification of fundamental physical interactions is a result of that abstract thinking, and look at it, we are successful because nature nods “agreed”. One example of this unification is is how the electric fields (E) are same as a magnetic field (B) if you recognize that the E, B fields are not fundamental but…

The story of particle physics
sitting here on my desk, a self-procreated office locus, on a rainy and lightening midnight what can I do? My love for physical isn’t too much a secret. I try very hard to transcend that to Physics. And without much self-organization I can not weave the scattered threads. So I will just pick randomly on…
