There has been a torus fusion reactor at Culham in Oxfordshire for some years now, soon to be decomissioned with ITER taking over. It has never...
Also synchronise two atomic clocks then take one on a lane journey and they are no longer synchronised. SR and GR are both accurate the only...
Physics is not mathematics. It involves a lot of mathematics because maths happens to do a pretty good job of describing the real world but they...
I should point out that gamma plotted against velocity is actually curved not a pyramid but its hard to describe shapes. For mathematically fluent...
Thats not as stupid as you might think. One of Einsteins key equations representing a variable, gamma, can be plotted as a graph of energy against...
I think it does work but a lot of the calculations which seem to be floating round the net look oversimplified. Of course a perfect mirror does...
My instinct tells me it'll work and now im getting obsessed with this damn problem, still its keeping me sharp. All this dielectric stuff ive been...
From Earths orbit you get around 4 micro pascals of pressure. So you need a pretty impressive area to get any kind of force behind that. Of course...
I never thought it was particualrly practical as a long term idea but I was looking forawrd to seeing how it would perform.
I guess by American standards then in Britain nothing is very far. But I do live within about 30 miles id guess. Not right next door I guess but...
Smokers in my family dont have a history of living very long, but I think thats genetic, there are some genotypes where smoking is fatal pretty...

Its worth it, the H bomb gives you way more bang for your buck (or rouble)
They're looking at introducing one in the UK, I hope they hurry. To work with class 2 and 3 carcinogens in a fume cupboard and thick gloves. I...
strange, I dont live all that far from Bletchly Park, never been though. The Enigma story is quite interesting, more from a military perspective I...
A neutron, cannot take part in a chemical reaction, they have no net charge on the scale overwhich chemical reactions occur. That is why I am...
So it really does only work by destabilising other nuclei.Still I guess that could be quite effective. Im sure there are more effective ways after...
Just out of curiosity why can an athiest not believe in a soul. Athiest only means you dont believe in God. Theres plenty of scope for beliving in...
I never really understood that only kills living things argument. To my mind a netron can only interact with an atomic nuclei, far too smaller...
Intrestingly im also one post short of 300, oh no not anymore. I did actually have a point to make a quick correction to the challenge of fusion,...
