As @renormalize mentioned, you have arbitrarily high frequencies for switching on an ideal source.

Are you sure? The idealized version of "the power is turned on" is a step-function in time, which contains Fourier components with...

The time constant will depend on the radiation resistance of the superconductor. Superconductors have no resistance at DC, but at high...

He's just a poor boy, nobody loves him.

I'm always reminded of Asimov's Relativity of Wrong in those discussions. A new theory must explain all existing observations, and there...

Hello @Dale The motivation for this foundational approach comes precisely from the fact that, despite the vast literature, fundamental...

That is a depressingly standard excuse. Best of luck

This will not impress anyone, and makes it much more likely that the content is already well understood. You should start by fixing that...

I publish in the medical technology literature and it was all journal first. I think that it is common in physics to post to arxiv at...

Your request is not about publishing. To publish something is easier than ever. What you really want is to be read. This means you...

Desk rejections are not done because the paper comes from an “outsider”. They are usually done because the submitter did not follow the...

Orodruin beat me to the physics answer, but I'd started typing the rest. A suggestion: use ##v=\frac 35c## or ##\frac 45c##, since...

Just to note that, in my opinion, that way of teaching/demonstrating the relativity of simultaneity is extremely clumsy, with several...

The two frames are equivalent - either may regard itself as "at rest" and the other as moving. The two figures are not - they are...

Note that the figures you've reproduced show two different experiments. In figure 2-1 the strikes are simultaneous in S, and if that...
