I am wondering whether there is a possibility to somehow intuitively explain how does that happen that gauge field acquires mass after spontaneous symmetry breaking? I mean something visualizable, not just referring to Lagrangian and the algebra. I would suspect it might be possible at least for...

These days have been full of news of the Planck Telescope. The most popular is the actualization of the CMB picture (the ellipse with dots red and blue). I know the idea of it. Each dot represents the "temperature" in some direction (from the earth) in some sort of (θ;ψ) chart -0≤(θ;ψ)≤2\pi ...

The single most common obstacle to understanding cosmology is probably the picture of expansion as an explosion outwards into empty space from some central point. It's a mistaken picture instilled in the public mind by popular media channels and reinforced by time-honored slang: the misleading...

Im sorry, I accidently edited my opening post instead of posting a new one.. The question was regarding the statement that the state ket is stationary in the Heisenberg picture when the basis kets are transforming in time. Because the state ket is a superposition of the base kets it should the...

Hello, The time-derivative of an operator A(t) = U^\dagger a(t)U in the heizenberg picture is given by: \frac{dA(t)}{dt} = \frac{i}{\hbar} [H,A(t)] + U^\dagger(\frac{da(t)}{dt})U Now, I know that under some conditions, we can write: \frac{dA(t)}{dt} = \frac{i}{\hbar} U^\dagger[H,a(t)]U +...

This idea is based on the metaphor: Line->Paragraph->Book->Bookshelf->Library It is an idea that several small things make up something bigger. From just the metaphor above what could it be used to represent. For me I have: (1) 1D->2D->3D->4D->5D? (2) Visual->measurement->observed...
