If the universe is infinite and matter is distributed randomly and uniformly, patterns have to repeat. This is because there’s a limit...

This is a misconception. When people say it's like a particle or wave it doesn't mean it's actually either. It's just in general...

I guess that makes sense. You already have engines and a fuel tank so the weight savings (if any) of adding in a parachute system...

Parachutes don't give you precision, so you can only do an ocean splashdown. That's bad for the engines, and the corrosive salt water is...

In QM we can look at two different update rules: $$|\psi\rangle \mapsto U|\psi\rangle$$ with ##U## unitary. This evolution of the state...

Like before, a global measurement of the screen’s total momentum gives which-path information only if the two recoil states are...

The universe appears homogeneous and isotropic on large scales. The lower bound for the size of the universe is much much larger than...

This is basically what you're asking: https://arxiv.org/pdf/cond-mat/0101157 A global momentum measurement of the screen only yields...

I mean, you just kind of make it up and pick a definition for it so everyone is on the same page. You could argue for exact invariances...

The delta between Griffiths and Jackson isn't that large. Jackson goes into more detail on certain topics, like BVP, chapters 10, 15, 16...

It's kind of a given that they don't. Even after reading all of Jackson this would be true. You plug in the holes as you're reading.

Why land boosters at all though? Why not just parachute them down if you want to refurbish them? The shuttle used to just drop them in...

##(A \otimes A )\ket{\Psi^-} = \det(A)\ket{\Psi^-}## in the above context is always true. The proof is trivial. For invariance you need...

I don't understand how you could get a masters without doing graduate E&M. Seems crazy to me. Anyway. How much do you know about...

You’d be better off imo focusing on coursework and undergraduate research. Adding in the editing and production of a YT channel to that...
