Well if e=mc2 then mass of an atom should be change when the electrons change their orbit releasing energy because the mass is converting into energy.

Ther are known for me only Bell's inequality in which the projections of spins figure. Whether exist Bell's inequality in which the impulses figure for example?

Theme: I write article on local, realistic interpretation of a quantum mechanics which compatible to Bell's inequality violation. Therefore I want to understand known not local realistic interpretations of a quantum mechanics. Prompt please references on them (from internet). I would not like deeply to press in a detail (for example, mathematical). But only it would be desirable to understand an Bell's inequality vaolation explaination in these interpretations . So that about it was told briefly, clearly, is accessible, on "physical language". Thank.

Hi, This is my first post! The speed of light could be wrong! I have read a book about Cats and Kittens by someone with an unusual name similar to Schrodinger. Apparently some individual photons were fired at a phto-sensitive piece of paper to see where they went. They could either go through a hole in the top of the card, or a hole in the bottom. I am giving a very brief account of the details, if you don't know about this then you should look it up. Anyhow, there is a situation where a single photon went through both holes. This suggests thet the particle travelled through time. It could then hit both places. This suggests to me that the speed of light could be man…

Hello everybody, I'm Geistkiesel and this is my virgin post in this forum. I made a protracted study of Stern-Gerlach transition experiments described by Richard Feynman in "Lectures on Physics" Vol III chap, 5. An intriguing discovery shows RF making some rather inelegant and obtuse errors in physical reasoning. One of the "errors" (translated: bad choice) was using an 'interference amplitude' model, which effectively screened out consideration of altrnative models that would have better served all purposes in that particlular situation, at that particular time.. The experiments are faithfully reproduced in my link below with a slightly different notation, whi…

Bell has received his an inequality, guessing, that there is a joint distribution function for four projections of spins. Then the proof of inequality was received from the unique guess radiating: all four projections of spins was exist simultaneously. Who was first received this proof and where this clause was printed?

Why light converges or diverges when they passes the centre plane of the lens(middle of lens)?? When we draw graphs, we redirect the rays when they exactly passes at the middle.

what is a quantum string magic? i know it's somehow tied into the strings theory, but if anybody can elaborate on it, that would be great. also, one of the maths that i was able to skip thus far is calculus(i'll need to take it sometime in the near future) but for now, if you guys can keep the calculus terminology either to a minimum or better yet null, it would be even better.

I and someone was discussing something about entropy and energy transfer, etc. stuff when we came to the conclusion that energy can't be transfered from one isolated system to another. That we know. But can the isolated system transfer energy within itself? And can it if it's in absolute zero in the first place? I know that no motion exists at 0 K, so the isolated system should not have any energy to transfer at all. But according to the Uncertainty Principle, energy particles can pop up from all of nowhere and disappear very quickly. Wouldn't that cause energy transfer to take place? My questions seem confusing, isn't it? Well, please answer as best as you ca…

The famous infinity paradox is there are infinite fractional numbers between lets say 55 and 56. Then how it happens that a car's speed reaches from 55 to 56..?? Just how it happens? because it would have been impossible for the speed of car to "cross" infinite numbers. In the same way I see the cursor on my monitor screen moving from left corner to the right corner. Why it happens so..?? because between the two corners, there have to be infinite fractional (numbers) distence. It is noticeable, however, that cursor do not move contineously. It only move pixel wise. There are a few number of pixels on a monitor screen and the cursor only moves from one pixel to the…

I found this article on CNN's website. It didn't seem "newsy" enough for the news forum, so I thought I'd post it here. It talks about some of the possibilites of nanotechnology, such as detecting cancers, and some of the surprising discoveries scientists have made, such as that atoms make noise when they're moved. There are also some pictures, including a cool one of electrons interacting. Here's the link: http://www.cnn.com/2004/TECH/science/04/15/nanotech.ideas/index.html

Anyone whos worth their salt should know that every few million years the earth switches polarity. But does anyone know why? I dont think it has anything to do with the earths orbit of the galaxy, but is it something to do with the fact that it is on the edge of it? is it instantaneous or over the course of a long time? And I heard some crazy person say that it causes the earth to stop spinning for a few days, is that really true???

Hi, I understand how a rainbow is created through dispersion of light etc. But I was just wondering how does the physics explain the curvature of the rainbow. Why isn't it just a straight rainbow? Thanks Jd

I understand a few things about microwaves that i am not sure if my source of information is really correct. Food is heated in the microwaves when water molecules in the food vibrate. Could you guys give me more information on how Microwaves work and why the reject materials that conduct electricity? Help will be appreciated

This was something i wan thinking about yesterday. Imagine a room, where no light can enter or espape. It. There is NO light whatsoever. You can't see a thing. You are inside the room (just imagine this). Now, u have a flashlight. When u start it, you will see a beam on the walls of the room. Shouldn't the room evenutally start to get brighter overtime? Since the light is only reflected off in all directions, no light is lost. Or is there something I am missing?

I've heard that the EM force is 1e39 times bigger than the Gravitational force of earth, and that infact what stops our bodies from continuing on to the center of the earth is the Electromagnetic force between our own atoms and the atoms of the ground. If any of this is wrong, please let me know, it's quite a new subject for me (Only recently I've started reading seriously about quantum physics). So I have a question, to understand that amazingly powerful force. There are (the way I see it) two options why our bodies STOP on the ground and not move on -- [*] The EM force of the ground's atoms together with the atoms in OUR body are preventing "passage" from b…

Were they invented purely because of the math or do they actually have basis in measurable reality? And if energy waves produce gravity, would tachyon waves produce anti-gravity?

I`ve done alot of work with thermionic valves (vacuum tubes) in my Lab. I`m wondering a few things about an interesting phenomenon I happened to notice a few times. when a magnet is placed by, over or around a valve it seems to shut down? the cathote`s still lit but it function ceases. now that part I can partly onderstand as the electrons are being dragged away from or not reaching the plate. but at the same time it doesn`t emit RF energy as a magnetron does? and yet it`s exectly the same principal, and when checked for X-Rays it even seems to damp them too? any ideas?

Whether somebody knows where it is possible to read (in the Internet well) about the theory of passage of a wave package of a quantum particle through a potential hill (For example, through a rectangular potential hill)? I am interesting potential hill probability passage for given energy and breadth wave package. Whether there are appropriate numerical experiments? Give please the references. P.S.: Inform please about the answer by e-mail: lesha74@rambler.ru

Whether there are any realistic local interpretations of quantum mechanics which do not contradict to the Bell inequality failed? Where it is possible to read about it (on the Internet, for example)?

I don't know why there aren't many people speaking about this subject but any way, does any know anything about the thought experiment of Schrodinger's(how do you pronouce that?)cat.

ok. I was reading in a book I bought from Canada about polarization of light. What exactly is polariztion. I know it has to do with straighteneing of light waves. But how exactly? And, they also said, that if you stuck a clear plastic fork through two polarization filters, and started to bend the tongs, then the weakest part would appear black. Now what is all this about?!

A friend posed this question... To date we are unable to manipulate gravitational energry or store it. I've been thinking of a way to store this energy to use as a form of transport. Ok, to the point With electricity, if you run it through a wire wrapped around a screwdriver, you can create a magnet. Additionally, if you spin a magnet, you can create electrical engery. With gravity, if you have a large amount of mass it creates gravity. However, gravity can cause light to bend. So I was thinking if you could bend enough light, it would create gravity. If you placed this gravity in front of say a spaceship, you could use it to pull the ship along, remo…
