Roger Penrose, of course, needs no introduction. At 85 he is as productive as ever, publishing papers, giving guest lectures. He also has a new book on the way and a kid currently in primary school. Here is a somewhat recent interview detailing a few aspects of his life. Happy birthday to you...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-36675894 On a personal note, he was very kind and encouraging when I spoke to him about some of my unconventional ideas about physics when I was a student (on the Computing Science course) at Imperial College in the 1970s.

Hi everyone. I'm not sure if anyone from here on PF is familiar with Sir David Mackay, but he was a physicist and mathematician known for his contributions in information theory and machine learning, as well as serving as Chief Scientific Advisor of the Department of Energy and Climate Change in...

I was trying to make a full list of the contributions of Sir Roger Penrose. What is missing? 1)Twistor Theory 2)Penrose Tilings 3)Penrose Triangles and stairs 4)OrchOR 5)Conformal Cyclic Cosmology 6)Tensors, geometry, and topology 7)Gravitational Wave 8)Penrose Interpretation 9)Penrose...

I would like to get opinions when calculating Source Impedance Ratio (SIR) on a Power System. Usually when calculating a three Phase fault it only takes into account positive sequence components, obtaining the source impedance ratio via the ratio of the source positive sequence component...

Hello, I have a question or two about Sir Author Eddington's proof of Einstein's GTR. 1)How did or what technique did Sir Eddington use to know where to get the best photo of the eclipse. 2)Can someone explain the experimental technique behind his proof of Einstein's GTRMany thanks from a...

I just read Sir William Blake’s Auguries of Innocence. Reading it, I’ve been left in a quandary. It brings to light some of my own doubts about ourselves. We as a people, no, civilization, no not even that, something more than a civilization, more essential, the building blocks of civilization...

Sorry if I posted in the wrong place. Does anyone know where to get the Sir Isaac Newton contest solutions 2007? The site has solutions for 2008, but not of previous years. Thanks.

From the Sir Isaac Newton contest: A 1.0*10^3 kg plane is tryin to make a forced landing on the deck of a 2.0*10^3 kg barge at rest on the surface of a clam sea. THe only frictional force to consider is between the plane's wheels and the deck, this braking force is constant and is equal to...

HI! I've looked everywhere for help for this question but i just can't seem to understand it...:frown: The question is below. It is from the SIN contest from 2001, question number 4. I wish they would have the answers posted up on the Waterloo website, but they only have the most recent...
