Talk:Superradiance

message: It is useful to state that it was Yakov Zel'dovitch who first described this phenomenon and Robert Dicke who formulated it mathematically in 1954. Then it was Igor Novikov at the University of Moscow who mediated this theory.--luxorion  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:7E8:C99E:E500:A1:555B:A406:D2C3 (talk) 14:20, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Zel'dovitch's first citation on superradiance is 1971: Zel'Dovich, Ya B. "Generation of waves by a rotating body." ZhETF Pisma Redaktsiiu 14 (1971): 270.
It's also referring to the astrophysical/relativistic effect rather than quantum optics. I have added the citation and moved the text out of the Quantum Optics section. Sgrer346rht (talk) 11:41, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  History

message: Propose merging from Super radiant emission into this article. Why? Because this article gives an incomplete and fractured discussion of superradiance, carefully avoiding any mention of lasers and astronomical masers, while the other article gives the formulas/equations, while also failing to mention this article as the general overview. They'd be happier together, I think. 67.198.37.16 (talk) 05:25, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Robert Lang (actor)

message: I AM CONVINCED THAT THE CREDITS FROM THE '59 THEATRE COMPANY BELONG TO HAROLD LANG THE BRITISH ACTOR WHO DIED IN 1970.  HAROLD LANG CERTAINLY PLAYED ROBESPIERRE IN "DANTON'S DEATH" FOR THAT COMPANY ON STAGE AND TELEVISION.  IN TRYING TO CHECK THEIR "BRAND", WHICH WAS ALSO TELEVISED, WITH IMDb I FOUND CONSIDERABLE CONFUSION ONLINE GENERALLY BETWEEN THE BRITISH AND AMERICAN HAROLD LANGS!
I KNOW LITTLE OF ROBERT LANG'S PRE-1960 CAREER TO PUT IN ITS PLACE, SO AM RELUCTANT TO TAKE THIS OUT. BUT I FEEL CONVINCED SOMEONE HAS CONFUSED TWO LANGS.

message: The mass formula seems to be wrong if it is for the Bosonic string. I don't know what the formula is for the fermionic one so I dare not edit it. In any event, left and right movers aren't distinguished, and there is no zpe contribution--Lionelbrits 17:07, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mass formula 

message: Anyone else experiencing an intuition that circular dimensions might have some relation to circular arguments, sylogisms, or some such notion? Do concepts such as T-duality have some application in such fields as representation, meaning, implication, comprehension, reference, circular reference, omains of disscourse, universes of discourse, or some such notion(s)?

Talk:Tangloids

message: How can 
S^{-1} (\vec\sigma \cdot \vec v) S = R\vec v
be true? The left hand side is a 2x2 complex matrix and the right hand side is a 3-dimensional real vector?
Ok. If we consider that (\vec\sigma \cdot \vec v) is trace zero and Hermitian then we can use the isomorphism between the real vector space of Hermitian trace zero 2x2 complex matrices and 3-dimensional real vector spaces but still this is a non-trivial isomorphism and not an equality!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tigelriegel (talk • contribs) 16:50, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Technological applications of superconductivity

message: It might be worthwhile stating what the benefits/advanatages are of applying superconductor technology to electrical motors are.  Am I correct to state that the key advantage of superconductors within this application are not that those superconductors can generate intense magnetic fields, but that the superconductors can conduct phenomenally large amounts of current.  Thus, if dealing with highly expensive superconductor, it is still possible to generate an efficient electrical motor that uses only a small amount of superconductor by forcing large currents through the wire (well, obviously, but it could be stated somewhere).  
Oh, yes, what about electrostatic motors?  Surely superconductors can make these lighter, cheaper and more efficient?

message: There's no mention of the Holbrook Superconductor Project in this article. To be honest, I couldn't even find much info on it, which was very disappointing.

Talk:ESPN International

message: Merged content from ESPN International to here. See Talk:I propose merging Fox Sports International into ESPN International. I think the content from Fox Sports can join as the Walt Disney Company slowly dissolves its assets into ESPN International. The former's article is much shorter..
New page should be made for ESPN stations
ESPN Australia / Pacific Rim on same page as the only difference between the two networks are:
* PTI Australia is shown on ESPN Australia while ESPN Pacific Rim generally get PTI (US Version) as replacement program
ESPN Africa / Israel on same page as the only difference between the two networks are:
* ESPN Israel do not get the UEFA champions league
* ESPN Israel in regards to Euroleague Basketball *do not get Maccabi Elite Tel Aviv games
ESPN Australia, Pacific Rim, Africa, Israel all get ESPNsoccernet press pass

Talk:Thermodynamic process

message: A natural process does not have to be only as described in the article applying to multiple interacting systems, namely "For thermodynamics, a natural process is a transfer between systems that increases the sum of their entropies, and is irreversible."  A natural thermodynamic process can occur within a single system because entropy can increase even when there is merely a redistribution of internal energy and/or some conversion of internal energy to a different form of such.  Examples are: (a) the redistribution of thermal energy in a sealed perfectly insulated cylinder of gas which started from a state of unequal temperatures,  (b) a chemical reaction including fire, (c) phase change such as melting, condensation or evaporation,  (d) the equal conversion of gravitational potential energy such as is approximated by a meteorite in Space in the shadow of Earth and falling towards Earth, thus converting gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy.  All these single processes are thus also examples of the Second Law of Thermodynamics in operation, because entropy increases when there are unbalanced energy potentials, that energy being internal energy in any form, not just kinetic energy.  Footnote:  This is why the Clausius "hot to cold" statement is really only a corollary of the Second Law of Thermodynamics which, for heat that is not via radiation, only always applies in a horizontal plane in the absence of phase change or chemical reactions.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.33.9.174 (talk) 23:13, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Thermodynamic state

message: Aside from being one of the cornerstones of thermodynamics, the definition on this page is a natural stopping point in the travels of people without science background using Wikipedia to understand and make their own judgment regarding the theory of conservation of energy.  It would be useful to add more material explaning the relationship of states to energy.  A beginning would be to further explain that energy is uniquely determined by state.  But more useful would be examples where difficuly in reproducing states has led to the discovery of new phenomena and new state variables.  I believe there are examples where an apparent failure of conservation of energy has guided the discover of new forms of energy and associated new state variables that lend themselves to systematic measurement and description.Pvkeller (talk) 22:11, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

text: a state, in my opinion, is the first order of identification and recognition as an independent juristic entity that consists of a collection of natural variations which makeup the structure of that state. The initial outline of a state can be understood as the above, coupled intradependently with borders and boundaries that are subjected to a constitution and memorandum that describes the phenomenon within that state and the view points by those outside of that state. to add value to this, verified, authentic infomation from actual experienced external states should be compared to those internal ones in order to find a balanxe of passivity towards a state of growth. the same applies to the mind and the genitals. lmimp 152.110.109.168 (talk) 10:56, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  So how does it work? 

message: A set of edits made the article worse, so I reverted the whole edit. This has been reverted, so I'll comment here before reverting again. 1) "their composition of elements heavier than helium (metallicity) and their mass" -> "their metallicity or their mass": "metallicity" is a jargon term which should be defined in this article at first use. I don't think a wikilink is sufficient when it can be explained very easily for readers who are not versed in astronomical jargon. 2) "and" -> "or": ok, kept. 3) semicolon to period: "they are a standard candle..." comes very directly from the statement that the luminosity is insensitive to metallicity or mass, so I think should be separated by a semicolon, not put in a different sentence. 4) "This makes the technique especially useful as a distance indicator." -> "This makes it an especially useful tool as a distance indicator." I think the pronoun "it" is somewhat ambiguous, so using "the technique" is more clear but makes "tool" unnecessary. —Alex (Ashill | talk | contribs) 17:07, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The same editor changed "they [TRGB stars] are a standard candle" to "they provide a standard candle". Candle refers to the object (the star in this case), so "are" is the correct verb. If the star just "provides" a standard candle, what is the standard candle it provides? —Alex (Ashill | talk | contribs) 15:51, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

message: * In August 2023 Irkut Corporation changed its name to Yakovlev however that page remains Irkut Corporation.
* A.S. Yakovlev Design Bureau which is a subsidiary of Yakovlev formerly Irkut Corporation, uses the Yakovlev page.
* So does A.S. Yakovlev Design Bureau keep its own page, in which case we should maybe change the page name to Yakovlev Design Bureau which would then free up the name Yakovlev to enable the Irkut Corporation page to be renamed Yakovlev or Yakovlev Corporation
* If the design bureau does not need its own page, it is necessary to merge Irkut Corporation with Yakovlev
