Paper Definition and 1000 Threads

I've been up all night writing and I want to go to bed, but for the life of me I can't find the paper or even the title of the paper that has been referenced in another paper. All I have is... M.A. Margulis, A.N. Maltsev. Russ J Phys Chem, 42 (1968), p. 1412 Which should be enough to locate...

I'm writing a thesis for my high school research paper on dark matter. It's difficult to come up with a claim that is argumentative, engaging, and related to the research I've done on the scientific process in relation to theories about dark matter. Do you think I could reasonably argue that...

Firstly I apologise for the most basic of questions... I want to know the odds for the game Paper Rock Scissors. What are the odds of winning What are the odds of drawing Thanks in advance :)

Hi, Anyone here still buy paper technical books? Most of the material in them is available on the web, although nor in the organized format provided by the book. So it would seem for it to be worthwhile buying a book on topics one is mostly unfamiliar with, in that the value of the book is in...

Who can help me? My paper was submitted to Physical Review Letters in October 25, 2018. But the paper first rejected by Associate Editor of PRL in October 30, 2018, and he gave me a few comments on my manuscript. But I found that his comments were incorrect, so I resubmitted my manuscript to PRL...

I teach group theory for physicists, and I like to teach it following some papers. In general my students work with condensed matter, so I discuss group theory following these papers: [1] Group Theory and Normal Modes, American Journal of Physics 36, 529 (1968) [2] Nonsymmorphic Symmetries and...

Hey, This is more of a discussion rather than a question. A lot of movies (e.g. interstellar, Event Horizon), have a go at trying to explain how the Warp/Alcubierre drive could work, and usually, the argument goes like this: They take a point A and a point B, connect them with a line on the...

I'm writing a mathematical paper on time dilation. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to incorporate math into the topic? I'm considering applying a Loedel diagram. The emphasis needs to be on the math, and not the physical aspects, though they can be introduced through the use of math. The...

Does anyone have any recommendations for databases or other (presumably online) resources that I might use to determine citations of a particular scientific paper. That is, I wish to see not only how many times a particular paper was cited, but I would also, if possible, like to see...

In the paper "Steady-state spin synchronization through the collective motion of trapped ions" it states the following: "Steady-state synchronization of atomic dipoles forms the foundation for ultra-stable optical lasers utilizing narrow-linewidth atoms coupled to a lossy cavity mode. The...

https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.01847 https://www.theguardian.com/science/2018/oct/10/stephen-hawkings-final-scientific-paper-released I hadn't realized he was still researching, I assumed he'd retired a long time ago.

In most popular explanations of entanglement, the quantum information of an entangled two-particle system changes without regard to the distance between the two particles. The following paper seems (to my unprofessional eye) to be questioning this interpretation...

Earlier this morning I came across this article -- https://phys.org/news/2018-09-errors-quantum-world.html -- which is about an open for all article in Nature Communications -- https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-05739-8 I've yet to fully work through the paper, but if this thread is...
