  1. I hope you're just yoking about this.
  2. No, that's not "logical" at all. The laws of physics are the same everywhere, so far as we know. We usually like to check the dimensionless constants, owing to the problems of any artifacts of using a particular set of units. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-variation_of_fundamental_constants
  3. ! Moderator Note It's against the rules to hijack threads with speculations. Right there in rule 2.5. It's a specific example of what you aren't allowed to do. Stay on topic. Posts should be relevant to the discussion at hand. This means that you shouldn't use scientific threads to advertise your own personal theory, or post only to incite a hostile argument.
  4. No such change is required. In relativity length and time both vary, such that c remains the same. Alternately, you can analyze a situation from one reference frame, where the value is known, and not have to worry about this at all. The BB does not go all the way back to the singularity, but to the extent this question makes any sense, the BB does not say there are any photons flying past any event horizon. Since your scenario is not predicted, it's a moot question.
  5. Are you claiming that a particle moving at high speed will deflect at an acceleration greater than 1g? If not, how does this matter? What is the frequency of the photons that would be emitted by the particles?
  6. ! Moderator Note Good grief, no. Kindly refrain from linking to non-mainstream sites. Answers to questions need to be established science
  7. ! Moderator Note Enough of this nonsense Your opinions about what the legal system should be are not a substitute for facts, and you’re permitted to attack arguments, not people.
  8. It's not clear that gravitational singularities exist, and we don't have the physics to describe such things. "fundamental form of energy" doesn't make sense.
  9. You're responding to the part which was not in question and to which I was not objecting, and ignoring the part I was. You were lumping all of the vaccines together under one umbrella and ignoring (possibly important) distinctions between them. Your OP was about Pfizer and lipid nanoparticles, and all of the sudden you're talking about blood clots, which are not associated with the Pfizer vaccine.
  10. An excellent point, which serves to show that the monkey argument carries a hidden, unsupported, and probably very bad assumption that life could only arise through one particular path.
  11. This would be your opportunity to provide a link to support your claim. thrombocytopenia is a rare result in 2 of the vaccines https://www.uptodate.com/contents/covid-19-vaccine-induced-immune-thrombotic-thrombocytopenia-vitt VITT has not been reported after mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines such as the BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) or the mRNA-1273 (Moderna) vaccines despite administration and safety data collection from hundreds of millions of recipients. At least one of the available vaccines, (Oxford- AstraZeneca) is not an mRNA vaccine https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/health/oxford-astrazeneca-covid-19-vaccine.html The Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine is based on the virus’s genetic instructions for building the spike protein. But unlike the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines, which store the instructions in single-stranded RNA, the Oxford vaccine uses double-stranded DNA.
  12. Which is not evidence that this is of biological origin. Repetition of claims is not evidence for them. Again, no evidence being presented, even if some elements of this are true. And so on...
  13. A behavior you have admitted to not studying and having no expertise in understanding. Analogies are limited in usefulness. Analogies of quantum systems are typically more limited. Again, it’s preferable to actually discuss QM.
  14. Also, how many legs did the individuals in the control group have? (and were these in vivo tests?)
  15. Designed to be? Any evidence to support these rather sexist claims? Repeating a claim is not evidence
  16. The 1S wave function varies as e^-r/a, which is not proportional to the electrostatic PE
  17. Meanwhile you are still not a quantum particle. The physics of your behavior is quite adequately described by classical physics, and this is still not relevant to the topic of the thread.
  18. And? You need to include the part where you explain how this has relevance Not clear what your position is. So this, too, is irrelevant to the topic. That’s not what I said, so I don’t know what prompts this question. Reading comprehension issues? Rule 2.5 Stay on topic. Posts should be relevant to the discussion at hand. This means that you shouldn't use scientific threads to advertise your own personal theory, or post only to incite a hostile argument.
  19. I don’t see how that’s relevant to the topic. You can look at the graph (or equation) of the probability density for various n levels and compare. If you have questions about it you should ask. You perhaps overestimate how much I keep track of others’ backgrounds. If you want to discuss QM, and especially if you assert that it works a certain way, I assume a certain level of familiarity. If that’s lacking, then this is a waste of time; you can’t build a proper model or assess criticism of your idea. The topic here is the electron’s wave function and probability density. Tying in to other speculative ideas is against the rules.
  20. Not really. You are not a quantum particle, and location isn’t a property that has a quantum number. Can we deal with actual QM and not analogies? That removes much of the ambiguity. Answered. It’s because of the math, both “this is what the math is” and “because you’re using spherical coordinates”; the volume element depends on the radius. The probability density isn’t the quantity with physical meaning, so there isn’t a physical justification I can give. Answers get merged. And if I edit immediately, I usually don’t annotate it.
  21. And yet what you wrote is in agreement with what I wrote regarding the PEP No, there is nobody identical to you. In hydrogenoid atoms, the energy of an orbital is only a function of its main quantum number, n, which means that all the orbitals of the same shell will have the same energy. In a single-electron atom, an electron in a 2s orbital will have exactly the same energy as an electron in a 2p orbital, because they only interact with the nucleus through a Coulombic interaction Citation? You quote something, you need to provide a link. There’s probably something that says this is what’s predicted by the Schrödinger equation. This turns out to not be true, once you delve a little deeper into quantum physics. It’s called the Lamb shift. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamb_shift This also ignores the hyperfine splitting, where the spin of the electron matters in determining the energy.
  22. “all due respect” usually indicates disagreement. One of the components of the PEP is that you have identical particles, as I indicated. If they are unique they aren’t identical. If it’s on “another shell” then there is some difference in its state (whatever you mean by A or 1; we do have actual physics terminology we could use) e.g. an electron in n=2 and the s state, can be spin up, and also have an electron in n=3, s state that is spin up. Such as you’d find in Ar. “on the left” really has no meaning in this context.
  23. If electrons were unique they wouldn’t end up in all these different states. It’s because they are identical that they need to be in different n, l or m states to satisfy the Pauli exclusion principle
  24. What I said conveys pretty much the same information about hyperfine structure as the quote you provided, so yes. Why do you ask?
