I noticed recently the content of TASI 2023 lectures, a lot about "generalised symmetries" and a particular one, "non invertible symmetries", that seems to propose a new way to understand the ABJ anomaly. Have you guys read it?
I'm building a replica of the Antikythera Mechanism; a device that was conceived and manufactured around 50BC.

These days, most particle physics anomalies (meaning, observations suggesting beyond-standard-model physics) eventually disappear under closer scrutiny. This one caught my eye because it can be attributed to the neutrino sector, which we understand least and which therefore has the most room for...

I have a MATLAB script for modelling a two tone signal (a sum of two sinusoids) going through a non linear transfer function (such as an amplifier). The amplitude of a signal is amplified non linearly, and also the phase is modified depending on the input power of the signal.

With regard to solar radiation effects causing the onset of effect, have any here investigated whether this is consistent with the observed residuals? Because the power of solar radiation is proportional to inverse square of distance from the Sun, it seems plausible to me that the mis-modeled...
For many years, the measurements of the Landé g-factor of the muon have been puzzling, as the experimental value and the theoretical predictions showed some disagreement - 3.6 standard deviations for the last years. Experimental and theoretical uncertainties have a similar size, so work on both...

During some spacecraft fly-bys at Earth it was noted that their final speed didn’t match the expected values. The difference was too small to be relevant for their missions, but too large to be explained by simple measurement uncertainties. It is either a poorly understood or forgotten part of...

Hi, everyone!
I'm trying to find the period of a satellite orbiting the Earth by the next formulas

II. 84.489*(a/Re)^(3/2)min
III. 0.00016587*a^(3/2)min
And I got aprox. 19 hours from both formulas (I. and III.) which is correct.

I like the spectral-flow viewpoint on chiral anomalies, as described for instance in Peskin & Schroeder, last part of Ch. 19.1 This appears to depend crucially on the concept of fermi sea level, making it specific to fermions. However, bosonic self-dual tensor fields also have an anomaly...
A question came up to my mind while thinking about probabilities and Born rule in the context of the Everettian approach.

Hi, so during an experiment, I spun a magnet inside a coil of wire in order to induce an emf, and measure the input power and output power. One of the things I found was that the slower the magnet spun (ie the smaller the input voltage to the motor) the larger the induced...
So, I'm to understand that "0 - -a = a" and I can understand this, in the context of say, being at an arbitrary reference point called "0" and then on a 2 dimension Cartesian graph of + shape and the operator "-", which can mean to reverse (so turn around 180 degrees) and then the second minus...

OK, this is embarrassing, but I never looked carefully at this elementary point. We say that if
p implies q
P is the set of all things for which p is true
Q is the set of all things for which q is true
then Q ⊆ P.
Also that the set of all things for which p&q is true equals P∩Q
But p & q...
