Re: Relativity drive

Can anyone give me a hint as to why the conical shape ought to make the wave guide dispersive?

Quantum theory says that the wave must determine a positive-definite, conserved probablity density because this is how it realistically represents the particle's behaviour. Which are the crests and which are the troughs?

Build one (easy, if you have a bit of dough to blow) and suspend it, with an optical system to amplify any horizontal change in equilibrium. If, observing none, you suspect this balance of not being sensitive enough, put two equal ones on a torsion balance and make the arms as long as you please...

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
