Signs of a Stranger, Deeper Side to Nature’s Building Blocks

The holographic duality, discovered in 1997 by Juan Maldacena, says that events inside a region of space that involve gravity and are described by string theory are mathematically equivalent to events on the surface of that region that involve particles and are gravity-free.

“Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine.” Sir Arthur Eddington, but Werner Heisenberg said something like it too. That’s a pair to draw to. BTT

I knew it! I just knew it! Lounging on my couch watching "the fireworks" on tv IS just as much fun as being there!

HELP RECEIVED: Parents supervised the liquid nitrogen use ...

*sigh* I'm too old form modern Physics experimentation; both of my parents have passed away.

Costs $40 to read the actual article!

This the part where I usually say something to the effect of “this sounds like science” and put my hands over my ears. :-)

Costs 10 years and $half a million to acquire the education to be able to understand it.

40 flaming DOLLARS?????

Thanks bigheadfred! teehee

Interesting stuff.

You can certainly add me to your Ping List.

Physics is ripe for a breakthrough, a different way of looking at things. I hope the “strikingly literal” comment turns out to be true.

if they keep screwing around like this they are going to prove the existence of the soul

Should be required reading in public middle school in Sanford, Florida.

"The strange properties of superconducting materials called “cuprates”...may correspond to properties of black holes in higher dimensions. "

Well, I guess we ought to press on. We're already in the evil parallel universe where America spies on it's own citizens, Russia lectures us on Freedom and the Boy Scouts are gay.

What's the worse that can happen? Either we find our way back to normality or we get sucked into a black hole.

Here’s the article (which can’t be posted on FR) link from Fractal Trader that had me looking for one that’s permissable.

Please add me to this list.
Thank you.

Reviving that old saw, ‘not necessarily’ don’tchaknow.

[Georgia Girl 2]

I’ll have to get Mr. GG2 to splain this to me as he is the science guru in our family. Is this like a parallel universe?

Thank you gentlemen!
