How are popular scientists considered in their Field?

I always wondered, how does the popular scientists, like Weinberg, Feynman, Sagan, Bill Nye, DeGrasse Tyson, Lawrence, Krauss, Hawkings, Einstein etc, score on the "newton-scale"? (Where 1.0 is Newton)? Is DeGrasse Tyson 0.3? 0.2? How does the other scientists score?

Nomenclature Regarding Acceleration

Im a physics student in high school, and we are on the circular motion chapter right now. I know that centripetal and angular acceleration are different things. For instance, an object can be accelerating centripetally but not necessarily angularly. However, if an object accelerates angularly, it also necessarily accelerates centripetally. Heres my question: Is radial acceleration a synonym for centripetal or angular acceleration? And if you can answer this one as well, what are other synonyms for centripetal and angular acceleration?

Faradays Law Question

Hey guys, I'm trying to build a faradays law flashlight and I was wondering if I could create a current by placing the flashlight inside a solenoid so the two poles are facing the wires all the time and just spinning it around (so on the same 2-D plane). Or would I have to place the two poles away from the wires and spin it around so that they face the wires for part for part of the spin cycle and away from the wires for the other part? Thanks for any help.

Initial thoughts on the Feynman Lectures

I'm a student who's going to start a degree in Physics this October. I've just started reading the Feynman Lectures on the Caltech website and I just find it amazing how Richard Feynman can explain topics in physics so well and manage to make even stuff I personally didn't find as interesting before (such as kinetic theory) fun to learn as well.

I was wondering, what have been the most major advancements in physics since the lectures were written that relate directly to the topics he discusses, and that I ought to know when reading them? For example, he discusses the muon and the electron, but not the tau. I'm guessing this is before the tau lepton was discovered.

Is there anything discussed that is extremely inaccurate now?

EM wave antenna reception response and reflection

When a receive antenna intercepts say a radio wave, it causes the electrons in the conductor to oscillate according to the characteristics of the incoming radio wave. This causes a small current in the wire which is then further processed by the circuit. What is confusing me is that as the electrons in the antenna are moving about by the intercepted radio wave, would they not at the same time be creating their own radio waves in a sense reflecting back the em waves that are causing them to oscillate in the first place? (i.e. they are behaving as if they are at the transmit antenna) I must be confusing myself somewhere. Thanks for the clarification Redditors!

Recommendations for Easy-to-follow Physics Papers?

I'm currently in my 2nd year of Undergraduate physics in the UK. Our laboratory module requires the completion of two 4-page lab reports, which thus far I've only performed averagely on. According to my supervisors the best way to improve the writing style is to simply read lots of papers. The only issue with this is that a lot of them are extremely dense and difficult to follow at my level.

So my question is this: do any of you have recommendations for fairly digestible physics papers suitable for my level?

Thanks a lot!

Graviton detector thought experiment

I was recently thinking of a thought experiment:

Assumptions
Graviton detectors can exist
The equivalence principle will hold in the final theory of quantum gravity
We can accelerate the graviton detector

Thought Experiment
Lets say I have a graviton detector (it detects the number of gravitons). In presence of a gravitational field we expect it to detect the graviton. However, in absence of a gravitational field we can also make it detect gravitons by accelerating the detector (by the equivalence principle). However, if we accelerate the detector then how many times will the detector "click"? Will it "click" at all?

Resolution
If it clicks (under acceleration): it will imply that acceleration too is quantized
If it doesn't click: It would imply there is no such thing as a graviton or a graviton detector (personally I think there's no need for a "or"). It could also imply the equivalence principle does not hold.
It is impossible to accelerate the graviton detector and for it too remain a graviton detector: I don't think this is likely but wrote it for completeness sake

Question
Is the premise of the experiment even correct? (I think I must be missing something)? If it is correct what is the resolution of the paradox?

Does anyone have information on the late Karla Turner and certain aspects of her abduction research?

A few months ago I heard more than one reference to her research and how it revealed apparently aliens running a "meat processing plant" where the "meat" was, horrifyingly, human remains.

The abduction research community supposedly downplayed and ignored such allegations for various reasons, from wanting to believe EBEs are helpful, enlightening beings and refusing to consider alternatives, to just being fearful of what going down that path may uncover.

All that said, does anyone have information on this? Outside of her, I haven't heard anyone mention human processing plants, so perhaps it's a sign that there were errors in her research or methodology. Nonetheless, I want to do a little research of my own and see if it turns up any "leads" to other areas. Thanks!

Zeta Retaculi?

Ok this isn't a very extra terrestrial occurrence but I am a very seasoned star-gazer. I can point out any constellation that is visible from my home in mid-western Illinois, so I know for a fact that the constellation Reticulum (home of the infamous greys) should not be visible north of the tropics. Now, two nights ago I was out star-gazing with my girlfriend and i realized that Reticulum was clearly visible. At first I thought that I was seeing things. Due to facts. I took a few pictures to examine later but when I tried to view the photos, only to see that the photos had either been not taken properly, or deleted. I asked my girlfriend about it and she said that she hadn't deleted any pictures recently. I know that this is a kinda stupid story, but it really happened to me. Please leave your thoughts on the matter below.

Regarding the law about aliens

Hello everyone. English is my second language. I posted this in the NASA reddit and got a few replies before a mod deleted it for being off topic with NASA things. This is what I asked:

"Lets assume one day a real UFO lands in my property and I manage to capture it and the pilots.

Now, even if the aliens are intelligent they're not people so they have no rights. I can own them like they're cattle and their UFO is now mine. Correct?

A group of scientists confirms that what I say is true.

Will the government now confiscate my UFO and aliens or can I sell them to whomever I want? I imagine if scientists confirmed something to be alien I could easily sell it for a billion dollars."

The answers I got before my post was deleted was that in that case the government will just take the technology and the aliens will be given sentient statue like people so I wouldn't be able to own them and also I would have to be in quarantine for a long time for coming into contact with them.

What do you believe would happen? I mean we live in a crazy world!

Ways to minimize extraneous interactions in an amateur Cavendish apparatus?

I have decided to recreate a Cavendish apparatus for my high school's senior capstone program. My ideal goal is to calculate G, however I understand that the accuracy of an amateur device would probably preclude accurate calculation. If need be I will simply rebrand it as a way to observe small scale gravitation.

That being said, I would like to do everything I can to isolate gravitation from any other forces. I'm still in the design phase, but I was hoping to get a little insight from some more experienced physicists and engineers. Keep in mind that my experience is limited to BC Calculus and AP Physics, with only minimal knowledge of E/M; what little E/M I know was self-taught for the SAT subject test.

From what I have read, both on reddit and elsewhere, it seems that every amateur Cavendish apparatus is criticized for ignoring similar factors, namely the following:

  1. Electrostatic interactions between the large and small masses
  2. Air currents
  3. Any ambient electromagnetic field interactions

Most of my questions stem from number 1, which I have seen pointed out most often. Given my limited experience, I don't have a good grasp of the nature of minute electrostatic charges, how they are acquired, and how they can be avoided/discharged. Much of the difficulty of this experiment is that interactions ignored by many textbooks become quite problematic when dealing with gravitation, and so it has been difficult to answer my questions through research alone.

For my masses, I am using spherical lead fishing weights. I understand that most triboelectric series place lead somewhere on the positive end of the spectrum, which is to say it can acquire a static charge. I am considering also encasing the apparatus in a box constructed from plywood, with one side of Plexiglas for observation, in order to prevent air current disturbances. Both materials can acquire charges. My questions are:

  • Outside of any sort of friction or contact, would it be possible for the lead, wood, or Plexiglass to acquire any static charge? If so, what would be the most efficient way to remove this charge?
  • Would it be possible for even a minute electrostatic attraction to develop between two objects of the same material (the lead weights)?
  • If so, would it be sufficient to "ground" the two masses to one another in order to neutralize this attraction? Or would they have to be grounded to a larger body e.g. the earth?

I apologize for what probably seems riddled with layman misconceptions, but any input would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Did anyone ever hear that zetas have a bone structure problem?

I just reposted this from conspiracy., but realized it would belong better here....anyways....

Had an expierience last night, as i type this i am awake for 1 1/2 hours and feeling very confused. I woke up and it took me a while to even remember who I am.

I was inside a hallway/room. Beside me was a human looking being and we were in front of a tank or sorts housing a typical zeta reticuli looking being. (His skin was more of a gold color than grey) I felt excited that I was seeing him (again?) I felt like I knew who he was.

The being beside me I felt was trying to explain to me that he was sick. On the tank I was displayed a zoomed in picture of his face. Now I'm not sure but I felt as though it was his skull/cheek bone.

I was showed a webbish/cavernous structure and was explained that he lacked something in his physiology. Something about his bones, like his flesh rejects his bones and that his bones were too hollow.

He was not conscious but I was explained that he was OK and not dead, it was a procedure that is normal for them.

Again the display zoomed in a little more and I saw more of a hollowish web pattern. I felt as though the being showing me this was thanking me for something. And that everything will be OK and not to worry...

The being in the tankish thing was lying down slightly in a fetal position but not exactly, he was visibly naked and had no clothing, his skin felt like it was a lot thicker than ours, reminiscent of shark skin but more of a golden yellow. I was confused but not remotly afraid. Everything was calm....

END..........

Im wondering, has anyone ever heard of anything like that, that their problem isn't reproductive but more some type of bone/flesh problem.

We have a lunar water problem: all detections so far are consistent with very small amounts of hydration from solar wind hydrogen ion deposition

Primary source: http://ift.tt/1UxTtaw

Spectra of these pristine samples contain features near 3 μm wavelength similar to those observed from the lunar surface by the Chandrayaan-1 Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3), Cassini Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS), and Deep Impact Extrasolar Planet Observation and Deep Impact Extended Investigation (EPOXI) High-Resolution Instrument (HRI) instruments. Spectral feature characteristics and inferred OH/H2O concentrations are within the range of those observed by spacecraft instruments. These findings confirm that the 3 μm feature from the lunar surface results from the presence of hydration in the form of bound OH and H2O. Implantation of solar wind H+ appears to be the most plausible formation mechanism for most of the observed lunar OH and H2O.

What can we do about it? We could send rovers with drills, but it would be easier to use remote laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) from lunar orbit: http://ift.tt/23AoKj1 Instrumentation review: http://ift.tt/1UxTtaA

What is the best book which presents a survey of all the interpretations of Quantum Mechanics?

What is the best book that compares all the various interpretations of quantum mechanics? What is the "key text" that everyone must have on their shelf? I'm wanting something more technical with equations, but not so technical that it has problems at the end of the chapters.

Tips for a physic student?

Hello Fellas, I have signed up to study physics at the major university in my country. I will be starting in a few months. I graduated 2 years ago from high school, and worked at my fathers animal clinic as an assistance for some time. I`m now 20 years old, with the knowledge of first year university math, high school physics, and pretty fleunt in programming. I wonder, do anyone have any tips for me? The university offers students to do research from the third semester. Should i take it up? What should my focus be in the 3 year long bachelor program? Should i do more math, outside of the curriculum? If yes, what? I plan on going to a good graduate school, what should my focus be? If anyone made any mistakes, i would love to learn from them. Best,

Theory as to how we MIGHT be alone

Like most things, in the end life comes in waves, this goes as deep as the quantum world and the universe. Maybe it's possible that other life is either only close by considering a few light years or non existent. I say this because, as far as we have observed, everything we see is in the past. So maybe, the universe is dying and we only see what it used to be, and destruction could be at our back door, having wiped out or forced life to come close to our space in the universe. Possibly when we're gone, the explosion will make more star dust and push life even further away in its wake.

[[ So, the show was interesting. It said all sorts of stuff. Like it discussed like what aliens could come here, like maybe needing our resources and stuff.

It talked about how in the long run guerrilla warfare with us (The word) being the guerrillas could over time be victorious due to the surprise nature of the attacks and lowering of morale.

It talked about like how if our weapons were useless, we could attempt sicken them with like our infectious diseases by sending sick people up to them. Like on the show due to the like apocalyptic conditions this far into the scenario, we were sending the sick people up in balloons..

I can't remember if at the end of the show the earth won, but I hope so! ]]

Do you believe there is there a link between EBEs and BEKs (Black-Eyed Kids)?

Some people have theorized that BEKs are the hybrid children resultant of alien abductions. While I certainly think this is possible, I do take issue with a couple things.
1. The children created from (and witnessed in) abduction experiences are described as having large eyes and perhaps larger-than-normal heads. BEKs are witnessed to look completely normal except for completely-black eyes.
2. In some experiences where the human Terran father/mother was allowed to meet their children, the children seemed to display more child-like features - the children seemed more passive, but they still would interact, albeit in limited ways, with the human parent. BEKs on the other hand behave very unnaturally. They don't speak normally (as in they comfort the victim they are trying to persuade) and they display very limited movement.

Those are just my personal thoughts. What about everyone else?

Looking for an encounter story I read years ago

Hi all,

Years ago I remember reading a report of a family of 6-8 people who were terrorised for an entire night in their isolated farmhouse by a group of aliens. They would shoot at the aliens, and the aliens would "float" to the ground when they were hit by bullets. It's an old story, I have come across it a few times, but cannot find it now.. does anyone know what I'm referring to ?

Also, I have been reading the George Knapp Skinwalker ranch book, as well as listening to a lot of podcasts and talkback radio (C2C AM etc) about the ranch. It's probably one of the best encounter stories I've ever read, and I wonder if any of you have any recommendations about looking up similar types of encounters?

thanks

Why doesn't the Pauli Exclusion principle apply to our Sun?

I understand how the Pauli Exclusion principle prevents the collapse of a white dwarf, but why isn't there a resistive pressure before the star collapses into the size of a while dwarf? There are just as many electrons before and after the star collapses into a white dwarf, so wouldn't we need to fill just as many quantum states? I'm guessing it has to do with the fact that the elections are more spread out in the star before it collapses. Does the Pauli Exclusion principle only apply to elections occupying the same space? Is there some arbitrary diameter where electrons begin to function as a single system and the Pauli Exclusion principle begins to apply?

Theory of how to handle "First Contact".

First off, I would be very skeptical of a species' intentions when first making huge appearances to the masses. The whole colonization thing would be unsettling, and the whole religious upset thing would bring most parts of the world into chaos.

I would strongly advise that if in our lifetime, first contact is made, be very hesitant to these beings. If I second species happens to visit as well, I would be more inclined to be more settled towards them.

Reason? 1. If the intentions of the first beings are positive, why would a second species or race follow? Protect us against the invaders?

I have got my GATE exam tomorrow. Give me some last minute tips and advise.

I think I can solve most problems of these topics since I have studied them, I have solved a lot of problems and understand the fundamentals.

  • Vectors, Differential Equations, Transforms, Complex Numbers and Numerical Analysis

  • Lagrangian Mechanics, Newtonian Mechanics and Special Relativity

  • Electricity, Magnetism, Maxwell's Equation, Gauge transforms and Electromagnetic waves

  • Semiconductor devices, OP-Amps, Digital circuits, solving networks, and signal processing

  • Eigen values problems, Schrodinger equations, Hydrogen atom, Pertubration theory, WKB and viriational principle

However, I have not studied these topics and I really have no idea. I don't think I can solve any problems on,

  • Atomic physics

  • Nuclear physics

  • Statistical mechanics

  • Solid state physics

I am thinking that I will dedicate all my time on the topic I have thoroughly revised and and not even the read the questions on the ones I haven't. I am scared that even if I could solve most of the problems at home, I have nightmares that I am in the exam room and I couldn't solve a single problem. What if all the questions are so difficult that I can't get my head around them.

If you have sat through a GATE or a similar test, then please give me some last minute advices.

Bad lab partner - Advice desperately needed.

I have a terrible university lab partner and need the world's advice on how to deal with it. He's not practically bad, in the sense that we work well enough together to get the lab done on time, and we get reasonable results too. His pitfalls are invisible to everyone who doesn't experience them first hand. He's also a pretty unpleasant person to be around when he wants to be, but the annoying part is that he's very nice, likeable and sociable when he wants to be. I'm being pretty generous there to be honest: He's horrible to me when we're with one other particular person and when in labs, but otherwise annoyingly likeable.

I think he has a chip on his shoulder about my background (compared to his). He seems to expend a vast amount of energy trying to make me feel solely responsible for it through little digs at me dressed up as 'banter.' Things about how I dress, how I speak, my mannerisms - really most of the things that make me who I am. His #banter can range from a trivial scoff at my choice of words, to something as personal as directly insulting my upbringing and by extension my family. I guess the best way to deal with it is to just take it on the chin and ignore it, which I do. I've also made a concerted effort recently not to give him any 'ammo' (This is virtually impossible though - he'll make stuff up if he has to). Sometimes though, it really does rile me, in which case I just leave if I can. When I do that I know he makes some quip behind my back like "oops, pissed off Jake (me - name changed) now," to the great amusement of whoever he's talking to. I'm fairly sure he discusses me behind his back too because he will happily discuss everyone else's faults with me behind their backs (Like I say, he can be friendly to me - talk about two-faced).

With regards to labs, I find him an extremely demoralising person to work with. If I seem a bit too disinterested he'll say 'Stop being so patronising' (He's very blunt with his criticisms). If I'm too interested he'll say 'You're over-thinking this and we'll run out of time if you do.' Today, someone came over and asked how we were getting on and he said "We're doing OK but we'd be doing better if Jake hadn't been thinking about it too much." I nearly boiled over at this point because it had been an entirely mutual discussion in which he did most of the talking. I let it slide. A few minutes later he said "What have you written for this question?" To my shame, still bubbling under the surface, I came out with the snarky "I don't know, maybe you'll have to think about it," referring to his previous comment. He didn't get it. He responded with an angered "Oh fuck off Jake." He clearly doesn't know what hypocrisy is.

A large part of his faults revolve largely around hypocrisy. He'll have a go at me for taking over a practical (unintentional on my part) so I'll let him takeover whatever I'm doing (because I know that disagreeing with him will only result in more grief). If the roles are reversed (when the most I can say is "Can I take the next set of measurements") he'll basically say no. His hypocrisy is even at the level of having been quoted as saying "If you have to say it's #banter, it's not #banter." (If I had a pound...!!!).

He'll also do things like dismiss what I'm saying or talk over what I'm saying (and never actually listens anyway), only to 'work out' for 'himself' what I've already said/was about to say - thus gaining even more self assurance. It also doesn't help that he knows he's probably cleverer than me, and makes sure that I know it too.

What I hope you're getting a picture of here is that of an extremely self-assured, hypocritical person with a concealed arrogance and a serious moral superiority complex. Combine this with a cold, manipulative and deceptive mind and you've got him. Looking back at what I've written, I feel like I've described a closet psychopath. This is not far from the truth.

The worst part in all of this is that I have no-one who knows him to talk about it to because everyone else loves him!

TL;DR: My lab partner is a low-key nob who takes digs at me and only me (he calls it #banter) so that no-one else can see his true nature as a closet psychopath.

Advice please!

I've discovered how to travel the infinite and also how to meet countless sentient beings.

Hi friends,

I'll be posting in here more, especially my next post but I want to let you know all my writings will allow each and everyone of you to come in contact with sentient alien beings. This also includes hyper dimensional entities which are different from biological aliens.

I've met the aliens called the Grays and they are not bad at all. Who started this idea anyways? I also have a cosmic serpent that is always around me. Reptiles in general are not bad or the ones I've met aren't. I feel the government perhaps started this myth to scare people away from actually communicating with alien life.

Before you can communicate with aliens you must first make friends with a massive cosmic serpent. If you fear reptiles that will be very hard to do. My theory that the government has started this fear about reptiles makes perfect sense if you realize how badly they want to keep us from finding this stuff out.

If you've never read the Rogers Commission report on the Challenger disaster, now is a good time. Chapter 3 has a timeline of the accident and images from NASA engineering cameras. Also all memos internal to Morton Thiokol warning about the o-ring breakdown.

Which will win? Genetic manipulation or Cybernetic implant??

When reading the Futurism app I noticed two very different approaches to fixing the same sight issue. I winder d what you all thought of it. I think initially cybernetics will win due to the pace of change we can do with electrical devices. But I can't wait to be able to grow eagle eye replacement eyes for myself :)

An inspiration of truth

I am just trying to explain to the best of my ability of something that is unknown.
As human nature is divine and precious under 99.99999% of the minds that exist, I want to open a new realm in which fate is indeed an algorithm and life is fate within an infinite amount possibilities.
As I am human just like everyone else, I see my body as a lease for my mind and my thoughts. Everything that I know, came from me harnessing other thoughts from other minds. We all know the same thing essentially. All humans basically share the same storage box and we are all connected universally, based on opinions and theories. There is nothing that is set in stone other than cold hard facts that we have created.
Imagine yourself being born. You cant remember, but you know that it happened. Your brain finally developed a small capsule that let you started memorizing things, and that is why we can think of the past. Imagine dying. You cannot remember dying, because it has not happened yet, however it will happen, and fate will decide that. How will it happen? That all is determined on the decisions that you make. "Being at the right place at the right time" kind of stuff. Those kind of situations are planned, they are foreseen however you want to look at it. Whether you fall in a hole during an earthquake, or if you fell off of a skyscraper. There were decisions that were made, by particles of matter, that created that story. Basically we are running from death by using fear, and the decisions we make create a shield from death, but it is the "below surface decisions" that are sub consciously built into our mind that give us an intuition. Those intuitions give us options with what decisions to make. All of this is created by physical history that humans have created. Wars, and different good or bad deeds that have gone on throughout history. These things give us the analysis we need to make the decisions that we want. In this theory it explains that there are NO coincidences. Everything happens for a reason based off of any decision that you make, and you will be a product of a decision, that was made by someone completely different. There is no way to escape death, just a way to escape different hostile situations by observing many different decisions. All of this would intel that we are programmed. Meaning we are an algorithm. A very long algorithm. And there is a situation for every single thought that has been created by any mind that has ever existed. This narrows down to beyond elementary particles, and the particles that make those up. Those are the matter's that make up life. It is science, not rocket surgery..

Now I am terrible at explaining things, so I am using the best words that I can think of to explain what I can.
Consider the option of Time travel. If time travel is possible then most likely it has already happened, as we could be that product of time travel. Consider that time travel is done under those small tiny particles that make up elementary particles. Those are the beginning of life, and that would be why we were not able to remember our birth and death. If used in Time travel, then one would not remember if they had time traveled until they figured it out from memory. Now by learning this, you would have to leave yourself hints and clues to tell you that you were a product of the future, because you cannot see the future without actually knowing the algorithm of life. If that algorithm is known, then you could see what would happen under any situation. You could tell/predict when anything happens. Look at life as a real life assassins creed, but leaving behind clues to let yourself know that you were in the past.. This could also work in smaller partial solves within algorithms. Universally however you look at it, we are all connected with numbers. And even the longest algorithm is a simple or complex pattern, depending on your mind operation. Just like any computer, there is a reboot or refresh sequence, just in case shit gets real. That algorithm most likely exists within our mind, but it is so long, that we have to find it, and the way to find it, is to understand everything that you can know.
Back to time travel. We think aliens exist, because they do. We use logic and space to create an image of "there is no way we are alone". So whoever in the future did this, would have altered everything all the way before we sprouted on this planet, to connect everything around us. Giving us different thoughts and emotions based on mysteries and logic. The pyramids are a case in which, nobody really knows exactly how they were build, and it will always forever be a mystery. But time will actually tell, because the pyramids have survived many disasters, and those many disaster have wiped out species on earth, and started new movements and civilizations. Jesus I believe was one of them, and I believe he was an illusionist like me. I think he saw a small chunk of that algorithm and convinced folks that there was something more than just the sky, and that we are a product of something we call God, but in reality we are a product of the future. Da Vinci saw these things, and was not afraid to use the imagination he had. The Bermuda Triangle might exist to hint at the future. We just dont know yet, because time will tell. But if we figure out who we really are, then we will discover alot more than just our galaxy. We will discover that Life is just the small gap between the infinite amounts of universes that were created in the future. We are machines, just like computers with longer math equations than that of a rock, or a tree. Yet we all contain the same element of what is reality. That small gap between you running a red light, and getting t-boned, or you winning a powerball. We are the aliens, we just don't know it yet, because we are stuck in that gap. We created these plants to help us understand what our mind is. This could have been figured out, and that is why it is made unavailable across the globe. Death is only another life, and you need life to get wealth.
Imagine how the IRS is going to collect taxes if nobody is alive. Pretty hard.

That is a small junction that my brain decided to stop at today, and I think that, logically there is not another way to look at things. Especially when you consider the possibility of time travel.

IMO, we lived in imagination only for thousands of years, yet it only took a 100 years to go from nothing to now. We are halted now, and we will continue to halt until we find out who we really are, and that will take us to that next level.
