Talk:Two-photon physics

message: The article has a "citation needed" request following the "matter can be created" by the two-photon physics of two just above 0.511 MeV photons. I am going to add a citation though it may not be precisely the one needed. I hope this helps. Marshallsumter (talk) 00:53, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Matter can be created

message: It is spoken of "center of mass" of photons. The problem with that expression is that according to actual knowledge, photons have no mass, then it is nonsensical to speak about a center of mass.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.77.24.38 (talk) 19:24, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: You are right in a classical way, since Photons have no rest mass. However, a baryon can lose mass when it emits photons, and since mass is conserved in a system, it has to go somewhere. This is where the concept of invariant mass gets into the equations. Photons do have a relativistic mass, which can be derived from their energy. By the way, I find this article and the underlying concepts difficult to grasp for an ordinary reader. 66.131.220.35 (talk) 04:03, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Center of mass of photons 

message: The line "but half wavelength is a positive charge and the next half wavelength is a negative charge" is incorrect and misleading. Photons are elementary (no structure) and neutral. They aren't "half positive and half negative."  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.176.0.33 (talk) 11:43, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Links 

message: It would be nice to have something about how gamma rays can pair-produce with EBL (Extragalactic background light) which includes ultraviolet, visible, and infrared. This usually occurs with gamma rays in the VHE range (very-high-energy, 100 GeV - 100 TeV) and is thought to be the primary cause of gamma-ray flux attenuation in intergalactic space. In the UHE range (ultra-high-energy, 100 TeV - 100 Pev) gamma rays should pair-produce with photons of CMB (Cosmic microwave background). About halfway through the EHE range (extremely-high-energy, 100 Pev - 100 EeV) radio photons start to kick. At least theoretically. In fact, no gamma rays have yet been observed at any higher than 80 TeV (Crab Nebula) near the high end of VHE. Zyxwv99 (talk) 01:07, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Pulau Palawan

message: Based on the street directories available (both official and unofficial), the island as mentioned in the article and in the photograph is not Pulau Palawan. The one in the article is just an unnamed man-made islet. Pulau Palawan lies further out to sea and is not linked to Sentosa. I believe the photo (right) shows the genuine Pulau Palawan, which lies nearer to Siloso Beach. —Sengkang 02:09, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Is it directly south of Sentosa? I was looking at the locator maps at commons. There is indeed one small island between sentosa and st. johns island and it is unnamed. You think this is the one? --Vsion 02:38, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Hmm ... no. The small island visible on map is Pulau Tekukor, according to my source map; and I can't find Pulau Palawan. --Vsion 02:48, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: There are several islands south of Sentosa that lie between Sentosa and St John's Island, which include Pulau Tekukor and Pulau Seringat. I've made a search at streetdirectory.com (you can click the link to go directly to Pulau Palawan's location map). Pulau Palawan lies much nearer to Sentosa, and is relatively smaller than those islands. —Sengkang 02:53, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That proves it, excellent. It was like finding beans on the map. I guess we can transfer the current content of this article to Sentosa. But, what to do with this article? --Vsion 03:07, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess we can retain this as a stubby article on this insignificant islet, after the transfer. Similar to Pulau Anak Bukom and Pulau Biola. —Sengkang 03:24, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Universality (dynamical systems)

message: (This comment also applies to the notes on universality in the scale invariance article.)
Avalanches in piles of sand are not examples of self-organized criticality, or not in general at any rate.  You're mixing up a metaphor used to visualise a theoretical model with a real system (to be fair, you're far from the only ones:-).
More urgently, I don't think the sandpile model per se is an "example" of universality.  Universality is about systems with diverse details sharing the same common dynamics at heart.  To give an example, with the sandpile model, you can drive it continuously (all sites being continuously increased until one breaks threshold), or you can have the toppling consist of resetting to zero and equally sharing all the energy among the neighbours (this needs a continuous "sand" value of course).  These two alternative dynamics have the same exponents, they belong to the same universality class as the original sandpile model.  But ... change it so that both the driving is continuous and the toppling consists of resetting to zero and evenly redistributing among neighbours, and you are in a different universality class, that of the Olami-Feder-Christensen model.
See what I'm getting at?  Examples of universality are not given by single systems, they're given by different systems that can be shown to be equivalent at heart. —WebDrake 01:46, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Universality and SOC in piles of sand 

message: Some articles on statistical mechanics link to this page ("Universality (dynamical systems)"), whereas others link to "universality class", which redirects to renormalisation group. Both seem to be talking about the same concept - should they be merged or something?
But also, neither article seems to go into a lot of detail. This is a little frustrating - there are references all over Wikipedia to the concept of universality classes, but both this article and the renormalisation group are purely descriptive when it comes to universality classes. They say there are only a limited number of them, and outline some of their properties, but they don't go into the technical details of why this should be the case, or even give any idea of what kind of mathematical object a universality class is. I guess either this article or the renormalisation group could do with one of those "needs attention from an expert" signs?
(Unfortunately I am neither an expert on the subject nor particularly experienced with Wikipedia, so I probably can't help much. I'm just someone who's looking for this information and can't find it.) 240F:7C:FC1A:1:D50E:E423:8FA7:F411 (talk) 01:44, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

The strongest hydroxyl lines are (as far as I know, which is admitedly limited) at 1665 MHz and 1667 MHz. One official-seeming site () shows other hydroxyl lines at 1612 MHz and 1720 MHz, but neither seem to explain where the 1640 number originated.

Talk:Weakless universe

message: Not being a regular wiki-user I will probably forget I wrote this... 
ANYWAY: There isn't a single citation in this entire article, and the references suggest it's based on only two pieces of work (which... would indicate that citation should be easy?)
At any length, it's not very easy to follow, and contains such bizarre lines as "Within this approach one assumes that there are many other patches of the Universe (or Multiverse) in which physics is very different" (the problem here being that the 'Universe' and 'Multiverse' are categorically different [one being a subset of the other] and can't be written this way).
Methinks some serious work needs doing. Which is odd because the History suggests such a thing has already happened :/

Talk:Tranquillity Park

message: I have heard rumors about some or all of the columns functioning as "ventilation shafts" for underground parking. No? Jay77tx 06:35, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: The name of the park was originally (and still is officially) Tranquillity Park, with two L's. That's visible on the engravings in the park (including the wall photographed in this article), and the city council discussions on it can be seen in the Houston Municipal Arts Commission's records in collection RG A 0033 at the Houston Municipal Research Center. Apparently, it was an acceptable spelling back in the 1970s. While the City of Houston's webpages use both spellings, the official Parks Department page does spell it as Tranquillity. I propose retitling the article to reflect the official spelling of the park's name, rather than just the common spelling of the word "tranquility." (Looking at the talk page for Tranquility Base, it appears that the title of that article also once used the spelling Tranquillity. I am making my argument based on council actions and official names of the park in Houston, though, not on number of google hits or whether or not they should have spelled its official name differently.) 207.126.220.33 (talk) 20:26, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Template talk:Magnetic states

message: I wonder whether remanence is a good property to use in classifying magnetic states. @ReyHahn, do antiferromagnets really display remanence? My (possibly naive) theoretical intuition tells me they do not, since the domains that form in them will have internal antiferromagnetic ordering with close to zero net magnetic moment once the field is turned off. Jähmefyysikko (talk) 13:22, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: you are right, remanescence is for a remaining magnetic field. One alternative is to move antiferromagnetism to "non-remanescence". A second alternative is to change the category. I think we need to separate diamagnetism and paramagnetism from anything that has a frozen-magnetic structure at zero field.--ReyHahn (talk) 10:31, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Changing the category name would probably be more useful. Find the correct word is bit tricky though. How about Induced and Spontaneous, and the latter would link to Spontaneous symmetry breaking? "Permanent" could also be an alternative for the latter, but that is harder to link without making an WP:EASTEREGG. Jähmefyysikko (talk) 12:49, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

text: They could also be Unordered/Ordered (in the sense of having an order parameter). I feel there should be some wikilink to explain the intended meaning, but e.g. Magnetic ordering is not currently very useful for that, since the unordered and ordered states are not distinguished. Jähmefyysikko (talk) 12:59, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem is the terms "order" and "disorder" can also relate to the crystal symmetry, e.g. ferromagnetism vs asperomagnetism. Magnetic structure also does not help for the same reason. I am trying to look for a good distinction from textbooks but cannot find any.--ReyHahn (talk) 11:37, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

thread_title: This article is difficult to find

message: The comments "documentation is far inferior" and "Matlab is far easier to learn than Scilab" do not seem to make justice to version 4 of Scilab, currently available. These comments seems biased to favor Matlab. I'll replace them with more objective versions. I have been using Scilab since Matlab decided not to release a version for WinXP64, and I have found Scilab superior to Matlab in its programming interface. Scilab is actually simpler to program than Matlab, and more flexible, making it better for many scientific purposes. Matlab beats Scilab in the amount of toolboxes, and performance is some scenarios; but Scilab beats Matlab in ease to produce large programs and the ability to distribute code with colaborators that belong to heterogeneous domains (Matlab is NOT readily available to everyone). After trying Scilab, there is no go back.
: I agree that the previous version was bad, but the newer isn't better. Storing public function in separate files seems minor with respect to other features related to functions, such as visibility (public/private), subfunctions, anonymous functions, etc. Comments like "harder to implement", "more flexible", "easier to program" (contradictory but provided without details), "common myth", "that is not true", and "in fact" don't have their place here.
