Talk:Dag

message: what about the slang term I know i've heard in the US "dag, yo" or "dag"... almost like saying dang if you have a stuffy nose... I suppose it originates from the australian slang but lost the meaning when it crossed the big pond. 168.103.188.73 19:10, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Hello - I'd like to ask for the following updates:
-In 'Athletics and recreation,' the entirety of the 'In 2020' paragraph could be removed as it is now outdated.
-In 'Awards and acknowledgements,' the U.S. News info is now outdated with the newest rankings released. I propose changing the language for everything above 'Additional recognitions' to the following:
In the U.S. News & World Report's 2024 Best Colleges Rankings, Marymount University was listed among 'Best National Universities' for the second-straight year. Marymount's newest rankings include:
* #320 overall among Best National Universities (#3 among included Virginia private institutions)
* #15 nationally for Campus Ethnic Diversity
* #35 nationally for Schools with the Most International Students
* #1 Undergraduate Nursing Program among private institutions in Virginia
Marymount also appeared on the America's Top Colleges list by Forbes for the first time, one of only four Virginia private institutions included. Nmunson (talk) 18:03, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

message: Especially in the short description and, in my opinion, the plantation history section, there's content that's written in an overly positive way and sounds like it's been lifted from the college website or some similar promotional material. I believe this article could use editing for neutrality, to fix this issue. Maybe it could also use editing for length- it could definitely be more concise.

message: On the page on Paul Sabatier started with "Paul Sabatier (August 3, 1858 – March 4, 1928), was a French clergyman and historian", the section Works includes two volumes entitled "Bibliorum Sacrorum..."  produced by the benedictin monk Pierre Sabatier (1682-1742) and published in 1743 (more than a century before Paul Sabatier was born). Clearly, two different personalities are being confused.

thread_title:  elastic scattering 

message: So the cross section turns out to be proportional to this, right?
 csc^4(Θ/2)
Csc^4 is infinite at Θ=0, so how does this not lead to an infinite density at the center? For confirmation, Wolfram Alpha gives the integral of csc^4(x) as -1/3 cot(x) (2+csc^2(x)), which is also infinite for x=0. Λυδαcιτγ 03:23, 20 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The cross section does tend to infinity as the deflection angle goes to zero. Of course. What is the total cross section of a star or a naked nucleus, with a coulombic field around it? Infinite! Anything that goes past will be deflected, and the smaller the deflection, the farther away that can happen. So the gravitational cross section of our Sun is infinite.  Now, this is not true of an atom, ONLY because at large distances and small angles its bare charge is screened by electrons (which the Rutherford equation doesn't take into account). So real atoms (unlike naked Rutherford nuclei) really have finite cross sections to alphas. But again, not from this equation, which doesn't take that screening into account. There really is a "singularity" there, for tiny, tiny deflection angles, tending to zero deflection. The cross section there for that should go to infinite. In this model, it does (in reality, for real atoms, it doesn't). This model fails for very, very small deflection angles and only works well for particles that penetrate fairly closely to the nucleus so they see its full charge.
