    B Einstein's Gravity Model: Explaining Its Creation

    When we do the stretched rubbers he etc analogy of gravitational well, there are two differences 1) the ball moves into depression because of gravity of the earth. 2) stretched rubbersheet is physical and prevents ball from falling down while space would allow you to move anywhere as space...

    I Gravity well model going through a sphere

    would a gravity well resemble a angle food cake pan well traveling through a sphere? being you start outside the well. travel inward towards the core then outwards to the edge of the well again. wouldn't this also mean gravity wells would be replaced with pressure wells at the core?

    A The Hamiltonian of the XY model -- when is it called the XX model?

    Hamiltonian of XY model is defined by ##H=J\sum_i (\sigma_i^x \sigma_{i+1}^x+\sigma_i^y \sigma_{i+1}^y)## and because it is isotropic it is sometimes called XX model. If we do some unitary transformation, and get hamiltonian ##H=J\sum_i (\sigma_i^x \sigma_{i+1}^x-\sigma_i^y \sigma_{i+1}^y)##...

    B Does the Drude Model Account for J Cross B Force in Hall Conductivity?

    I was thinking about hall conductivity, when this question popped up. If there is a magnetic field and an electric field perpendicular to it, then a hall current is generated since the ions have larger gyro radii compared to electrons. Now this current would produce a J cross B force in the...

    I Mass in the early universe and the CCC model

    Penrose's CCC model posits a mapping between our big bang and a future one. This is based on the idea than in the far future there will be no mass and at the big bang there was no mass. So in both cases the universe looses track of scale. I am aware that the idea of there being no mass in the...
