Talk:Kalari

message: How do some people claim that Kalari is a exclusively a Malayali Marital martial art when Kalari is about 3000-5000 years old [atleast that's what Malaylis themselves say or what is said in National geographic channel.But Malayalam itself was a language that was created in 14 th century after a chaos due to immigrants in Chera Nadu.Moreover in National Geographic Channel that Kalari said that Kalari is practiced since Sangam era.Malayalam and Malayalese came into existence only after 14th century.But Sangam era mentioned in Tamil literature 2000 years old.Malayalis may practice and preserve Kalari but it's not an art created by them but by Tamils.Someone said that it was not practiced by Chera Kings [Tamil Kings] but by his warriors.It's funny to see someone saying that some great kings didn't knew the art that a normal warrior under him was knowing  (arun1paladin117.193.192.15 (talk) 21:27, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

message: When will you see diffraction rings in a PSF and when will you not? In photography, bokeh generally doesn't show it but microscopy seems to.

thread_title:  Diffraction 

message: the image formation process is linear in power and described by linear system theory. This means that when two objects A and B are imaged simultaneously, the result is equal to the sum of the independently imaged objects. In other words: the imaging of A is unaffected by the imaging of B and vice versa, owing to the non-interacting property of photons.
Since photons have been scientifically been proven to interact, the explanatory conclusion is outdated.
Thus, my question is: what has been attempted to be explained with the 'other words'?

message: I like the argument presented here: The FT of a uniformly illuminated circle creates an airy disc, therefor the FT of an airy disc is a uniformly illuminated circle. However, in this discussion there is the term: kr tan(Θmax), but I believe it should be kr sin(Θmax) to match what the FT of a circle aperature is.

message: I think adding a ray diagram explaining terms like θ_max and r will be more helpful in understanding the process of partial interception of spherical wave field by lens.

replies: text: I'm not aware of any data that mentions whether Kammerer was a head of COMCON-2 ot not and who exactly was a head of COMCON-2 after Sikorski or during the Great Revelation. The only place where such data could possibly be found is VGV, and I doubt it is there. In VGV the highest official of COMCON-2 mentioned is the president of "Ural-North" sector (Mikhail "Athos" Sidorov). Because of his illness he was temporarily substituted by Gennady Komov. See Document 15 in VGV (VGV), where Athos mentions this (once again, Kammerer is referenced as the head of UE department, as in Document 20, etc.). Also Komov is referenced as a acting president of "Ural-North" sector at the very beginning of Document 19 in VGV (VGV). Kammerer calls Komov his direct boss in conversation with Logovenko (Document 17). I'm not aware of any discussion in VGV about how important the "Ural-North" sector is. I believe that UE department is just based in "Ural-North" sector, or Kammerer being the head of UE department has his office in the sector, but UE department is not strictly the sub-department of the sector. There is no much data given about subordination details in COMCON-2. My position on information presentation is the following: 1) if the information is known to be wrong it should be fixed; 2) if we don't want to fix it claiming that the information is not important, it is better just to remove it; 3) it is better not to say something that is just our fantasy. --Misha Stepanov, 128.165.96.84 06:06, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
