    I Is physics of living matter an undiscovered territory?

    Thank you everyone for all their inputs. The aspect of consciousness is very intriguing. Is consciousness only a philosophical concept or there is more to it than meets the eye? And even amongst living matter, how different it is between humans and the rest? Are these three different systems...

    I Is physics of living matter an undiscovered territory?

    Is the physics of living matter different from that of non-living matter? If yes, how it is different? What makes it different? Does biophysics present itself as an example of interface between quantum and classical physics? Any information that you think might shed light on the subject will be...

    I The life cycle of a star and the bell shaped energy emission curve

    Thank you all for your replies. It is possible that the shape of the curve for one star is not an exact bell-shape. However, if the same curve is plotted for a large data set of stars, it might approach a normal distribution. There is a broader point that I have in mind. Is the bell-shaped...

    I The life cycle of a star and the bell shaped energy emission curve

    Energy generated (y) by a star plotted over its lifetime (x). My basic understanding comes from looking at the process of stellar evolution. How their luminosity increases with time before they run out of fuel.

    I The life cycle of a star and the bell shaped energy emission curve

    Do all stars in their life cycle (t) emit energy (E) that follow a bell shape curve? If yes, is the curve symmetrical always? How is this related to nuclear and thermal time scale?

    I Quantum fluctuation and classical physics

    Thanks for using some 'kind' words in your reply. Still, I am trying once more by giving an example. In a natural course of action, human earliest ancestors would either stand or squat or walk or run. In an unnatural (if I may use this word) course of action, the humans invented chair and...

    I Quantum fluctuation and classical physics

    Thanks for your reply. What I was thinking of was human induced energy fluctuations in classical systems? Here humans are the "cause". From a metaphysical point of view, at classical level, its only living organisms who have the capability to introduce energy fluctuations in the entire...

    I Quantum fluctuation and classical physics

    Hi, Can we derive an equivalent concept of quantum fluctuation in classical physics using correspondence principle? Also, how can we account for transfer of energy back and forth at the quantum and classical border? Thanks

    B How to calculate the energy released?

    Would Earth's moon also collapse into the Sun? In that case, how much energy will be released with that collision too? How will it compare it with the earth-sun collision? Is there a possibility of this situation arising in the lifetime of earth?Thanks in advance.
