How do these two papers fit in the hole AS discussion, or are they unrelated. Ambjörn and Loll visited the Asymptotic safety conference at PI in november ! http://arxiv.org/abs/0911.4211 Proper time is stochastic time in 2d quantum gravity Authors: J. Ambjorn, R. Loll, Y. Watabiki, W...

Has anyone used the new e-readers with scientific papers? I'm looking into getting a kindle or something similar. But am concerned about the formating of the pdf files on the small screen. While it would be nice not to have to carry a stack of papers the screen needs to be easy to read...

On 14 November we got news ( https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?p=2441424#post2441424 ) that an International Center for Quantum Gravity was being created at Erlangen. This will be directed by Thomas Thiemann, who has a joint appointment at AEI Potsdam, the other main place for QG...

Homework Statement I am a beginning quantum mechanics student, and I need to solve a journal paper that uses the step potential fairly simply. I've been searching for (literally) days, but everything seems to be far too complicated. Can someone please point me in a direction, or offer some...

Could someone recommend some papers or books on Inflation? I know nothing about it, so I need some accessible ones. Thx.

Can anyone recommend a style for writing theoretical physics papers? I'm just a first-year undergrad but I want to get used to writing papers in a style that is suited, or generally accepted, for theoretical physics papers by practicing on my class notes. Can someone also suggest an...

At a meeting at work today a colleague mentioned that he is currently spending a LOT of time reviewing papers, it has reached a point where he felt that it is simply taking too much time from his other responsibilities. But on the other hand it is also part of the job so he did not really feel...

There's an interesting series of papers by Bahr and Dittrich, and a related video talk by Dittrich at the Planck Scale site. The papers bear on issues discussed in the Lewandowski thread. The first in the series is a good introduction to the rest. Here are some links and abstracts to show what...

I find it difficult to understand mathematical papers. Please can someone help by giving me clues on how to understand current research works on mathematics?

All I've done at uni is Physics, math and computer programing papers i was thinking of adding some chemistry papers, but not quite sure because it won't go towards my degrees do most physics majors do a few chemistry papers? - Most of the papers I've done so far are just electricity...

So my summer research adviser asks me to read a bunch of papers, and I am just a freshman, so I don get like 85% of the stuff in the papers.. what should i do? what does he expect me to get out of it? thank you.

In the stupid quest to know everything about a subject, i just wonder if there exist databases out there that include all the existing journals to search for an specific topic. I currently use Science Direct, but that is restricted only to Elsevier journals. For example, it does not include...

I am a freshman at a university (I'm 16 years old- skipped 2 grades in school) and I'm planning to major in physics. After reading more specialized books in the library, and having some discussions with professors I have come up with a couple ideas that I would like to develop further and...

What was the name of Einsteins paper of General Relativity and where can i find it on the internet (not the exact original, the translated typed version). sorry, for this lame questions.

If someone has written a paper on physics (e.g. like Einstein, papers on Relativity) and wants to publish it what to they have to do? Who do they sent it to,,, you get the point?

I know this question has been asked before but does anyone know where I could find some of Einstein's original handwritten papers? Obviously they would be in german but its no problem. There is so much junk about him on the internet its hard to sift through it all Thanks, Jeff

I am communicating with other researchers in neuroscience. Sometime they don't have access to a paper we may be discussing. For example the university access i have (Athens) has limits with each major publisher having some journals subscribed to Athens and some not. I wanted to know what...

Looking for an online source for papers of Einstein, Lorentz, Planck etc. -old enough to be public domain and free

I've been looking for (free) papers (probably 100+ pages) that are introductions to eleven-dimensional supergravity. Rigor and mathematics is preferred. Does anyone know of any specific articles that satisfy these conditions? I've looked at ArXiv and Google Scholar but I'm having trouble finding...

Questions: Where can I obtain the most advanced published papers regarding valid unification theories? If there are none, which published papers will get me closest when combined in their respective categories? Comment: It is obvious to me through speculation, physical laws have yet to...

I don't know which forum this question pertains to. What are the best programs that can be used to create without too much effort good quality smooth diagrams in a scientific paper? A colleague of mine used CorellDraw. What do you use?

How did Einstein come to pushish his general theory of relativity? Was it in a series of papers over a few years, or in one definite article? In either case, are these (or this) papers available on the internet in engligh? Thanks.

I have some great math ideas I want to write, but the most accepted format is latex. I go to the latex website and see that it is a complicated program. I don't want to be a programmer . Seems like too much work for just some symbols I can easily write by hand. Then you have to somehow put it in...

Which books or papers explain "short-channel effect" very clearly and detailedly? Either books or papers are OK! Thanks!

Just thought i should flag this page, there seems to be some good stuff there. http://www.atmos-chem-phys.net/recent_papers.html

I've recently had a paper accepted to be published in a maths journal. This is my first paper to be published, but the problem is that I currently work outside academia and have no academic affiliation to give them. I do have a PhD in maths, but that ended about 10 years ago. Does anyone have...

How does one go about referencing / citing one’s submitted, yet unpublished pending peer-review, papers? Specifically on something like a CV, is something special done to distinguish it from published papers? Would it be just like an ordinary citation, but only including the title and authors...

Hey fellas, I'm giving my SAT subject tests in Dec 2008, And I would like to know where I can give practice tests for : Math 1-2, Physics ? Please Help, as I intent to score 800 on all three of them. I presently use Princeton for both math, barrons for physics; but the practice tests are'nt...

I'm using the search engine INSPEC to find some physics papers that I need. The problem is that I need to know the number of citations but can't find this anywhere. I know there is a way of finding them, but I just can't work out how. If anyone knows, I'd be very grateful :D

I am having a problem with bibtex when I have a second paper by the same author (or at least the same lead author) in a single year. For example if I have two papers, with the following authors: Paper 1 - Author 1, Author 2, Author 3, Author 4 (2008) Paper 2 - Author 1, Author 5, Author...

So much potentially important QG reserach appeared this quarter (April-June 2008) that for simplicity I have split the list in two. Papers solely by graduate students and postdocs (no faculty co-author) are discussed in another thread: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=243004 In...

Which of these papers do you think will prove most valuable for future research? For brevity, papers are designated by their authors. So much potentially important QG research appeared during the second quarter (April-June 2008) that for simplicity I split the list in two. The following are...

What is your favorite way of finding out about what is going on? I don’t suppose that anyone has the time to read all the papers that are published. If you are not working in a particular field, ( hehehe … meaning … you are an amateur) but are interested in finding out what is happening, what...

does anyone know where i can find english translations of his papers?

We have had some discussion of this in earlier threads. Alain Connes et al have been able to derive the standard menu of particles from a certain spectral triple, in Noncommutative Geometry (NCG). On the other hand, Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) as developed by Rovelli, Smolin and many others is...
