    Undergrad Could Space-Time Curvature Enable Time Loops?

    If space-time is curved like a klein bottle, is it theoretically possible that events could loop back in time ? :wink:

    Undergrad Compute Relativistic Velocities of Photons & Neutrinos

    Does this imply that neutrinos have rest mass ?

    Behavior of charged particles in Free and Bound states

    If there are 3 positive charges of +1, +3, +5 coulombs equidistant from a negative charge of 1 coulomb what positive charge will this negative charge be attracted to ? Is the result different if the charges exist in a “bound” state (resulting in electrovalent compounds) where a positive charge...

    Undergrad Compute Relativistic Velocities of Photons & Neutrinos

    Can we compute the relativistic velocities of 2 photons or 2 neutrinos ? :))

    Undergrad Light Acceleration: Does Light Really Accelerate?

    A beam of light bends when near a star. Since velocity is a vector, although the path still follows a null geodesic, a change in direction implies that acceleration is present. Light does then, in fact, accelerate. Is this correct ?:frown:

    High School Regression of Universe: Is Time Repeatable?

    If every particle of the Universe was made to occupy the state at which it was 2 years ago, would there be an action replay of events from (T-2) yrs to T ? Or would subsequent events be different ?:rolleyes:

    Undergrad Imposition of relativistic constraints on Bell's theorem

    Bell's theorem states that super-luminal communication exists between particles that are separated by space-like separation viz. faster than light transmission of information. There is spontaneity in this. Relativistically this would amount to going back in time. The state of creation of...

    Undergrad Density of matter in the expanding Universe

    As I understand it, the Universe is red-shifted (emission spectra) from any point of reference looking outwards. The Universe is expanding, but is matter being created at the same rate ? Does this mean that the density of matter in space is decreasing ? (density = mass / volume). What does this...

    Undergrad Why Is Gravity Always Attractive?

    Why is gravity always attractive in nature ?:frown:

    Undergrad Do anti-matter particles have a secret agenda to annihilate matter particles?

    Any anti-matter particle in Nature seeks out and gets annihilated by the first matter particle it encounters. (always the first). Is there a kind of superluminal communication between matter anti-matter particle pairs ? Is this consistent with the laws of physics ?:))

    MSSQL: Checking for Equality of Tables (Hints only, please)

    To first compare the structures of 2 tables you can use the system view information_schema.columns.:cool:

    MSSQL: Checking for Equality of Tables (Hints only, please)

    I think you can check UNION of both tables and find the rowcount which should equal the rowcount from table T1 as well as table T2. o_O

    Dynamic Arrays (One, two, three dimensions)

    https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/A_Little_C_Primer/C_Dynamic_Memory_Allocation_&_Deallocation For simple programs, it is OK to just declare an array of a given size: char buffer[1024] In more sophisticated programs, this leads to trouble. There may be no way of knowing how big an array needs...
