Model Definition and 1000 Threads

The Ford Model T, affectionately known as the Tin Lizzie, is thought to have been the first widely affordable/accessible automobile. Production of the Model T started in 1908. I'm looking for a cosmo-friendly time unit that is short enough to be real and familiar to all of us, but at least an...

A new experimental result from BESIII finds that there is isospin violation in the decays of J/Psi mesons in a path involving scalar mesons (with a narrow width in tension with world averages) and notes that a previous experiment found isospin violation in another decay chain...

In QM there is no cloning theorem that says "we can't clone or erase quantum state". But in classical macro world we can copy information and erase it. If we should describe classical information as a very complex quantum state then we shouldn't be able to copy or erase it, right? And obviously...

Hi! I feel like I've understood none of this stuff! A 1D chain of springs and masses modeling a chain of atoms has a dispersion relation ala ## \omega## ~ ##|sin(k a /2) |##, where ##k## is the wave vector and ##a## the distance between atoms. As far as I have understood, the debye model (in...

Does anyone know where can I find the deduction of all terms of the updated SM lagrangian? Although I have already looked at some lagrangians and theories like local gauge invariance, Yang-Mills theory, feynman rules, spontaneous symmetry-breaking and others, I wanted to see the deduction and...

Hi, I'm trying to get how well a known function fits to a set of data. I'm not interested in the data's line of best fit or anything, I just want to know how close it is to my model. I've tried using curve_fit and linregress but neither really give me what I'm after. My data follows a...

Hi Everyone, I am simulating(using HSPICE) HR neuron model using analog computer technique but I am not getting the required response. I am using uA741 model of opamp and MLT04 model of multiplier. I have tested these components individually and they are working fine. I doubt there is something...

In this thread, I would like to discuss: "which is more natural for a simple cosmological model: taking the long term Hubble time as a timescale (as Marcus has done), or taking the Hubble time as a timescale". I will start by paraphrasing Marcus' OP and replacing his '##\Lambda##-timescale' with...

People queuing to pick up photos at an event. They have a bar-coded docket. By scanning the docket, printing is initiated on one of eight printers. Each printer takes 40 seconds to print a photo - the software chooses the least heavily loaded print queue - or uses a round-robin approach if print...

Homework Statement The question is how to get the mass term for the W Gauge bosons within the Left Right Symmetric Model (LRSM). My main struggle is with the Left-Right Mixing part. So the LRSM has the gauge group $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{B-L}$ and with an additional discrete...

I have several questions about the process of determining the value of cosmological parameters by LMS fitting tunctions of the form z = f(DL) (where DL is the luminosity distance to astronomical data points), for example, as shown in the following diagram: The five cosmological parameters I am...

I'm trying to get my head around what this means exactly. I've plotted the graph to help verse me with the functions that I've derived. From the free electron model, the wavefunctions are treated as planewaves of the form \psi_\mathbf{k}(\mathbf{r}) = e^{i\mathbf{k}\cdot\mathbf{r}} Due to...

Homework Statement In a course I am studying, I have been asked to calculate the distributed parameters of a line whose Pi model has been provided. I simply quote the question here for clarity of my question: Homework Equations C = \frac{{2\pi \varepsilon }}{{\ln \frac{b}{a}}} R =...

My target is to make a Adaptive cruise controller(ACC) for a car model. So i divided the task into two parts, first--- I made a speed following model, tuned a PID controller for it. Second---- I made a distance following model, tuned a PID for this. Now i integrated the two models into a single...

I'm studying periodic boundaries in 1D for which energy gaps occur, i.e. values of the energy which are not allowed, according to the Kronig-Penney model. My question is when these band gaps occur what happens to the wave-function, because it still has to be continuous, so it can't just...

This is a follow up to another thread (https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/something-about-calculating-the-age-of-the-universe.807250/), but I post it as a separate thread since it is not clear to me (a) this is actually correct, and (b) assuming it is, whether it actually provides a...

1) The Feynman Diagams which provide the dominant contributions are just those with the greater amplitudes? I have the doubt because I read could be more dominant contributions for a single process and I am not sure amplitude would be the same for them. 2) How to compute the cross section in...
