Hmmm. I dimly recall something called "K capture" google google google... Yep. In this case, an electron is captured from the innermost electron...
I didn't say you were. I said you were confusing an axis of rotation with a dimension.
Potentially exciting, but we'll need more data. Luckily that's just around the corner (once they get the whole weasel thing worked out).
Nope, I have to contradict myself: a gravastar would confirm GRT as well.
I would say that a gravastar or wormhole would be a far more unusual discovery than a black hole. I'd also say that a wormhole would confirm GRT just...
Thanks! Well, you've come to the same conclusion I essentially did, so I don't think your analysis is incorrect here. But I do take issue with the...
The short answer is "Yes, pretty much." There is a lot of confusion inserted into the conversation due to the speed-of-light postulate in SRT and...
This is great stuff, Fednis48, and I will try to respond when I have more attention to give to the matter. Just briefly, I think that...
Wow, thanks Fednis48, I'll have to think about that for a bit. But I do have a couple immediate questions that I think might help me understand: 1....
Hi rpenner, not sure where you think I ignored tangential velocity in #6, though I didn't use that term. I did say: Emphasis not in the original. In...
I saw Rachel say on her show that the Republican Party is becoming unpopular with some Republicans. Now let's see if I can find a linkie... Got a...
I liked it then and I like it now.
I found a paper you will find interesting, Write4U, on exactly the subject you're curious about, though it's a bit heavy. Give it a try and tomorrow...
Tomorrow when I can think better I'll hunt up some references for you on galaxies receding faster than the speed of light. Short answer is, yes they...
And since I'm handing out kudos, thanks to you as well, Dinosaur. I'd never have known what to look for in the first place without you.
Your proper time as you fell into the hole would appear to run slower and slower to someone watching outside; eventually each of your seconds would...
Probably just out the other side of the ring singularity, but it would be worth the ride if you lived. Your trajectory would have to be incredibly...
Correct. Thank you for not telling me the whole thing. I did remember you had mentioned it when I found it. It was good for me to work it out for...
danshawen, let me put that thing about planes of rotation another way: you are confusing an axis of rotation with a dimension. Maybe that will help....
Not a total loss, though: 1. I (re-)learned L'Hopital's Rule. 2. I found out that you can't use trigonometric identities in a calculus proof. But...
