Phi Definition and 130 Threads

Dear Forum, My goal is to rotate several points on a sphere by a theta and phi. For example, I have a sphere where the elevation is theta (90 to -90) and the azimuthal is phi (-180 to 180). I have the following points on the sphere: theta = [45 45 45 45] phi = [-180 90 90 180] This generate...

For example, after the Lagrangian is renormalized at 1-loop order, it is of the form $$\mathcal{L}=\frac{1}{2}\partial^{\mu}\Phi\partial_{\mu}\Phi-\frac{1}{2}m^2\Phi^2-\frac{\lambda\Phi^4}{4!}-\frac{1}{2}\delta_m^2\Phi^2-\frac{\delta_{\lambda}\Phi^4}{4!}$$. So if I were to attempt to find the...

The unit vector r roof points in the direction of increasing r with phi fixed; phi roof points in the direction of increasing phi with r fixed. Unlike x roof, the vectors r roof and phi roof change as the position vector r moves. What I was thinking of the image is Although, I was thinking why...

I know Phi appears often when modelling exponential growth and, probably because of that, also in Biology/Ecology. But does it appear spontaneously in the mathematical description of some fundamental physics phenomenon at all? (As does Pi, the ubiquitous irrational number) Hope I'm posting on...

I know in the Heisenburg picture, $$\Phi(\vec{x},t)=U^{\dagger}(t,t_0)\Phi_{0}(\vec{x},t)U(t,t_0)$$ where $$\Phi_{0}$$ is the free field solution, and $$U(t,t_0)=T(e^{i\int d^4x \mathcal{L_{int}}})$$. Is there a way I could solve this using contractions or Feynman diagrams? Because otherwise, it...

I know $$ i\mathcal{M}(\vec {k_1}\vec{k_2}\rightarrow \vec{p_1}\vec{p_2})(2\pi)^4\delta^{(4)}(p_1 +p_2-k_1-k_2) $$ =sum of all (all connected and amputated Feynman diagrams), but what is meant by 1 loop order? In other words, when I take the scattering matix element...

Hi, I have this formula ## f(\theta, \phi) = \frac{sin \theta}{4\pi}## I have this statement that say if I integrate this formula above on a sphere then p = 1. what does integrate on a sphere means? I know ##\int_0^{2\pi} ## is used for the circle.

Let ##\phi_{+}=\frac{d^3k}{2\omega_k (2\pi)^3}\int(\hat{a}^{\dagger}(\overrightarrow{k})e^{ikx})## and ##\phi_{-}=\frac{d^3k}{2\omega_k (2\pi)^3}\int(\hat{a}(\overrightarrow{k})e^{-ikx})##. Then ##\phi^4=\phi_{1}\phi_{2}\phi_{3}\phi_{4}=(\phi_{1+}+\phi_{1-})(\phi_{2+}+\phi_{2-}...

There are two subjects which pop up a lot as having physical examples (or, more precisely, where their approximations have), but many (not all) of them seem rather indirect or forced. For example: [1] phi (the Golden ratio) or 1/phi: (a) trivia: sunflowers and pineapples giving the first few...

$$\int_{0}^{\pi\over 2}{\ln(\sin^2 x)\over \sin(2x)}\cdot \sqrt[5]{\tan(x)}\mathrm dx=-5\phi \pi$$ $\phi$ is the golden ratio Any help, please. Thank you!

Suppose I have a self interacting real scalar field ##\phi## with equation of motion ##\partial^i \partial_i \phi + m^2 \phi = -A \phi^2 - B\phi^3##, and I attempt to find constant solutions ##\phi (x,t) = C## for it. The trivial solution is the zero solution ##\phi (x,t) = 0##, but there can...

If you know phi it is about 1.618...=2cos36. The equations when x=phi which is equal to 0 is x^2-x-1=0. I took the first derivative squared and the second derivative cubed. The equation with x=phi is: [2x-1]^2+2^3=13 Check for yourself, if you fill in phi you get 13. Anyway, I do not know what...

Hi, Does anyone have any experience with the Perkin Elmer PHI 600 Scanning Auger Multiprobe? I ran into a problem with my system. Please respond so we can discuss this in detail. Thanks.

In the case of two fields interfering with each other when calculating the total electric field, cos (phi1-phi2 + kx) = cos( kx) where kx is the path difference between the two fields. How does cos (phi1-phi2 +kx)=cos(kx) Isit just algebra?

Moved from non-homework forum section, so homework template is not present. Express Cos(t - pi/8) + Sin(t - pi/8) in the form A*Cos(wt - phi). I got sqrt(2)*Cos(t-3pi/4). Not sure if that's right though

I think it is not true that a discontinuous ##\nabla^2\psi## implies a discontinuous ##\nabla\psi##, because a continuous function can have a discontinuous derivative, eg. ##y=|x|##. Is it true that ##\nabla\psi## must always be undetermined at the boundary where ##V=\infty##? Attached below...

Homework Statement My textbook states that when ##\theta = c ## where c is the constant angle with respect to the x-axis, the graph is a "half-plane". However, when ##\phi = c ## it is a half-cone. The only difference I see is that ##\phi## is the angle with respect to the z-axis, rather than...

Looking at blogs about the 2-5-15 Planck data release, I noticed a couple of them claiming that it rules out some of the simplest models of inflation, including one called "phi squared inflation". I can't read the specialized characters in physics notations, but I'm figuring this is the same as...

hi guys, can someone please tell me how to find Theta and Phi from Yaw Pitch and Roll? I use my smartphone orientation sensor on a project and i need to calculate the smartphone's normal vector projection.

I was looking up information about phi and how it seems apparent everywhere in nature, debatable. I stumbled upon this photo which is quite funny: This got me thinking about how people try to fit and force data to match whichever hypothesis they have. This is more jokingly, I think. However...

Given a position vs time graph of simple harmonic motion of an object and using the equation x(t) = xo = A sin (ωt +Φ), how am I supposed to find Φ? I can easily find A and the period (T). I also know T = 2 pi / ω, so I can find ω. But I don't know x(t) and t. I tried finding random points in...

So, while solving a problem a friend came up with involving the Totient function, I ended up doing a bit of research into the average asymptotics of the function. On page 268 of Introduction to the Theory of Numbers, it's mentioned that "The average of order of ##\phi\left(n\right)## is...

What is most motivating way of introducing this function? Does it in itself have any real life applications that have an impact. I can only think of a^phi(n)=1 (mod n) which is powerful result but is this function used elsewhere.
