Talk:Dirac string

message: Does Dirac string scatter electric charge? (or electron)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.229.241.187 (talk) 05:21, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The Dirac string should be viewed as the line limit of the field of a solenoid. the only nontrivial scattering would come from deflection caused by interference from going around different sides of the solenoid, from the Aharanov Bohm effect. The dirac quantization condition guarantees that this interference phase is the same as in empty space. So the Dirac string doesn't scatter charges--- it is invisible. This is why you can take the limit of infinitesimal solenoid without anything blowing up.Likebox (talk) 10:10, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Toph Beifong/Archive 1

message: I am curious. Do you guys think that Toph can bend the rocks in the metal or the metal itself? It is shown that sections Toph bends in metal is seemingly created as if it itself were bended, but when Toph "sees" the metal she is viewing the rock and mineral inside. So....which is she bending?

thread_title:  Toph will be lost 

message: Recently aired episodes ("The Library" and "The Desert") have revealed more about Toph's capabilities.  Most significant is that Toph's seismic sense is severely degraded in sand.  The soft and shifting nature of sand dampens the vibrations Toph uses to see.  She describes this as "everything looking fuzzy".  Because of this limitation a group of sandbenders was able to approach her undetected and steal Appa.  She bumped into Sokka in the desert as well.  The episodes also reveal that Toph feels most comfortable on solid ground as she was elated at the discovery of solid rock.  Also confirmed in this episode is Toph's inability to detect anything airborne.  A group of buzzard-bees attacked the group and Toph could not detect where they were.  Katara eventually acted as her eyes, telling Toph where to direct her fire.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by  70.57.68.12 (talk • contribs) 20:07, 15 July 2006  (UTC)

Talk:Elastic scattering

message: I think these two pages should be merged.  Please continue the discussion at Talk:Elastic_collision Flying fish 02:14, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge with [[elastic collision]] 

message: I personally see a reason behind keeping Elastic Collision and Elastic Scattering as distinct pages.  While there definitely are paraellels between the two processes, elastic scattering is inherently a quantum process whereas elastic collision is within the realm of Newtonian mechanics.  Rephrasing this distinction, elastic scattering is a sub-microscopic, relativistic process whereas elastic collision is primarily a macroscopic, sub-relativistic process.  Approaching the one model from the vantage of the other often leads to incorrect description of phenomena and so-called paradoxical behavior.  Thus separating the models by having two different pages should be pedagogically accurate.
Billyziege 21:04, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  I disagree with such a merge. 

message: In fact, "Elastic Scattering" is also a term in high energy physics which relates not only to electron-atom scattering at the keV level, but also to highly relativistic scattering of almost any two subatomic particles.  I would propose to expand the current page to include information on this, rather than merging it with the more Elastic Collision. Michael Schmitt 03:57, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  I also disagree with merging these two pages 

message: "the scattering intensity is expressed as a function of the momentum transfer defined as the difference between the momentum vector of the incident electron and that of the scattered electron."
contradicts:
"the energy of the incident photon or particle (electron, positron, or neutron) is conserved"

Talk:Equation of state (cosmology)

message: This article is clearly written. So the following statement stands out because it is confusing: "This is the origin of the flatness and monopole problems of the Big Bang: curvature has w = − 1 / 3 and monopoles have w = 0, so if they were around at the time of the early Big Bang, they should still be visible today." Several questions here: How can curvature have an equation of state? Is this an error? In what sense would curvature have pressure and density? Does this statement relate to the cosmological constant? Maybe it's just a matter of explaining the concepts more clearly. Also why do these values of w mean monopoles should still be visible today? 71.32.45.99 (talk) 22:10, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
