Talk:Super-Poincaré algebra

message: In a supersymmetric world, every boson would have a partner fermion of equal rest mass. To explore the consequences of this assertion—and to attempt to explain why the present-day world does not appear supersymmetric—physicists and mathematicians have developed an algebraic method for describing the symmetries involved.
Isn't it the other way around? The SUSY algebra came first and it predicts equal masses for the superpartners if it's unbroken. Phys 20:33, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Good article 

message: Isn't the formula given the energy required to assemble a charged sphere with all the charge on the surface? If it's constant charge density, I believe a prefixed factor of 3/5 is needed.
Actually the correction factor of 3/5's is for a charged sphere with all the charge uniformly distributed over the volume, not over the surface.
So for a uniform volume distribution you should get
U = 3 / 20 * whatever
and for a surface charge distribution you get (if I remember correctly):
U = 1 / 8 * whatever.
-- Eugene Y.
:Thats where "approximately" comes in. For the energy E of a sphere of radius R containing a constant charge density I get:
::E=\frac{3}{5}\,\frac{e^2}{4\pi\epsilon_0 R}
:and for the energy of a sphere of radius R containing a constant surface density I get:
::E=\frac{1}{2}\,\frac{e^2}{4\pi\epsilon_0 R}

thread_title:  Exact energy of charged sphere

message: Given a (classical) sphere with a radius of 2.818×10−15 m, this yields a spherical volume of 9.378×10−44 m3. Combined with a mass of 9.109×10−31 kg, this gives a matter density of 9.718×109 g/cm3. This is about 30 times greater than the approximate density of an atomic nucleus of 3×108 g/cm3. — Loadmaster (talk) 22:52, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

:I suppose, but the classical electron radius is most interesting as it is bigger than the actual electron. Classical proton radius is smaller than the proton.

Portal talk:Human sexuality

message: I was wondering about the choice of the intelinked male and female symbols and man and woman hlding hands. These seem to illustrate a very specific type of heterosexual sexuality.

message: WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.
As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals.  So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely,      — The Transhumanist    07:44, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Order of Hermes (Mage: The Ascension)

message: In addition to needing clean up, there are two major problems.  First, the original writer or writers apparently submitted their incomplete rough draft, including headers without accompanying body text.  Second, no indication is given whether the "history" presented belongs to the Ars Magica version or the World of Darkness version of the Order, or whether the text presented is in some way meant to delineate occult mythologies (such as those embraced by the various decendants of the Golden Dawn) that might have served as the inspiration for the game versions.  I strongly suggest that the article be reduced to a stub including only the opening paragraph, until such time as the original writer (or someone better motivated) can do a clearer and more complete job. --69.138.67.141 21:06, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Arcturus

message: The Wikipedia description of the name Arcturus appears to be unique; every other source I checked says that the name came from Greek arktos — bear, and ouros — guard (or tail), meaning guardian of the bear.

thread_title:  Nomenclature 

message: The article says Arcturus is an "old-disk star" but the link leads to an article on "Thick disk" which is a possible galactic structure that has nothing to do with the star itself. Arcturus is not in the so-called Thick Disk. I believe the article is trying to say that Arcturus, which moves perpendicular to the disk of the galaxy, is moving through the galaxy from the so-called Thick Disk region .
MrNeutronSF (talk) 01:39, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: No.  The two terms are more or less synonyms.  "Old" is effectively synonymous with "thick" because stars form, for the most part, in a very thin layer and so the "thin" disk consists of young stars.  Older stars form a thicker disk, at least in the solar neighbourhood, although the detailed reasons why are still debated.  Very old stars form a more spherical halo around the galaxy.  This is obviously not clear. The claim for Arcturus itself is poorly-sourced and the source given for that sentence doesn't appear to reference the star at all, only other members of the Arcturus moving group.  Thick disk does mention that it consists of older stars, but it isn't exactly prominent.  What makes you think that Arcturus isn't actually in the thick disk?  It is, and there are sources aplenty to confirm it.  I'll add one.  Lithopsian (talk) 13:58, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
