The strong nuclear force

Nuclear Glue The nucleus of an atom is made up of protons and neutrons.  Both have about the same weight although protons have a positive charge and neutrons have no charge (they are neutral).  Like charges such as protons produce a repulsive force agains ...

Help Category Theory- Fund A Female Scientist

Category theory is a branch of mathematics which attempts a formalization in terms of simple elements and associations between them. A rather abstract construction, indeed, and certainly one above my head (I am an experimentalist, for god's sake!). ...

Space-times-time Invariance as Gravity, Part A: the Proposal

In this blog, I will again define the space-times-time invariance proposal using simple graphics, an explanation intended for a wider audience, videos, and information for nerds. It is taken directly from my own web site that has nearly exactly the same i ...

Statistics Lectures For Physicists In Traunkirchen

The challenge of providing Ph.D. students in Physics with an overview of statistical methods and concepts useful for data analysis in just three hours of lectures is definitely a serious one, so I decided to take it as I got invited to the " Indian Su ...

Space-times-time Invariance as Gravity, Part B: Equations of Motion

In Part A, the core idea behind the space-times-time invariance as gravity was detailed. When one treats events as a 4-vector, the contraction of that 4-vector generates one number. When one treats events as quaternions, the square of a quaternion generat ...

One Dollar On 5.3 TeV

This is just a short post to mention one thing I recently learned from a colleague- the ATLAS experiment also seems to have collected a 5.3 TeV dijet event, as CMS recently did (the way the communication took place indicates that this is a public informati ...

More on Relation of Standard Model Flavor Hierarchies and Euclidean 3-Space Geometry

Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4     The remarkable coincidence of the empirical Pythagorean equation for SM flavor hierarchy angles with the outer euclidean symmetry 3-space metric equation for constant vector direction angles is the data evidence of ...

Researchers' Night 2015

Last Friday I was invited by the University of Padova to talk about particle physics to the general public, in occasion of the " Researchers Night ", a yearly event organized by the European Commission which takes place throughout Europe- in 280 ...
