Graduate Can antiparticles annihilate different types of particles?
It can be boiled down to the collision of quarks and anti quarks.- Andrekosmos

Graduate Test set-up for full dark matter simulation
The hydrodynamics is important for the active liquid xenon to search for xenon nuclei that recoil in response to collisions caused by an impinging flux of dark matter particles (WIMPS). So your simulation can involve what we would expect from http://lz.lbl.gov/detector/- Andrekosmos

Graduate Four random quasars in a straight line?
Notice all the irregular blobs deformed by the gravitational interaction between them and quasars which appears to have played a role in the formation of this relationship thus possibly reducing the chances as mentioned due to the dense cluster nebula, we would need to do more observations to...- Andrekosmos

Graduate Can you have an antimatter black hole?
I forgot to mention these are just claims made by theorists, also quantum black holes could be the constitutes of dark matter and is being considered a candidate...- Andrekosmos

Graduate What are the different forms of Virtual Photons?
We approximate using Feynman diagrams and the concept of virtual particles in this case is part of perturbation theory. Virtual particles have no other role other than in Feynman diagram calculations. I think the vacuum fluctuations of quantum field theory will be of further relevance.- Andrekosmos

What Makes Physics Forums the Best Online Community for Scientists?
Best forums of 2014 & 2015 for me <3 I Highly Appreciate Physics Forums! Hello I am Andre, nice to finally and formally introduce myself. I've been greatly enriched by browsing and reading the forums for about a year now and love all the curious and intelligent questions & topics which are...- Andrekosmos

I don't get the purpose of programming
Programming is very useful in physics and astronomy research (Python is a popular language). "Only 50 years ago, most physics and astronomy research relied on the analytical skills of the scientist, on the tools of classical mathematics that were taught to them as students, and in some cases...- Andrekosmos

Graduate Black hole fireworks: quantum-gravity effects outside the horizon spar
McVittie spacetimes represent an embedding of the Schwarzschild field in isotropic cosmological backgrounds. Depending on the scale factor of the background, and the presence or otherwise of a cosmological constant, the resulting spacetime may contain black and white hole horizons, as well as...- Andrekosmos

Graduate Suggested topics for a beginner in QP? What got you hooked?
The mathematical skill sets fascinated me and kept the initial interests for QM alive for me since I was 16, now if only I can get my head around quantum field theory :P Mathematical Prerequisites for QM: http://www.worldscientific.com/doi/suppl/10.1142/9038/suppl_file/9038_chap01.pdf...- Andrekosmos
