    Good progress in my studies, bad progress in my self-esteem

    Hi Powerflow, There are many things to answer here, especially concerning your personal issues. I'm 22, so I can relate to some of these. I feel some duty to share my personal solutions and experiences, but this can be quite long, so I'll do it a bit later (my English is far from perfect, so...

    Drop a charge in a neutral black hole

    No idea ? Even if you don't have a full answer, a qualitative argument would be interesting.

    Drop a charge in a neutral black hole

    Hello, What would happen if I sent an electron into a neutral black hole? Assume basic (undergraduate) knowledge about black holes. I have studied in some details the Reissner-Nordstrom solution including maximal extension using Kruskal coordinates. Thank you!

    Incertitude relations from QFT

    Hello, There are no incertitude relations in QFT. On the other hand, these incertainty relations do exist in non-relativistic QM. How can we reconcile these two facts ? Is it possible to "derive" uncertainty relations from QFT by "taking the non-relativistic limit" ? Thanks !

    Music Guys next to my room just keep turning the music with loud bass

    A friend of mine also has a big problem with noise. To eliminate high and low frequencies, he wears ear plugs and a headset for professionals. I've tried this combination, and it's quite impressive. When someone talks 2m from you, you can't hear a sound.
