What do you make of this recent paper of Chamseddine and Connes? Resilience of the Spectral Standard Model The version of the Standard Model based on a product of the spacetime manifold with a finite noncommutative space had previously predicted a Higgs mass of 170 GeV. Supposedly this paper...

I live in Mexico and I am about to begin my PhD. Here in Mexico the standard books for a Msc or first terms of a PhD are almost the same in every univesity in Mexico. For example the Msc traditional program is something like this: First Year - Classical Mechanis-- with Goldstein's Book -...

Hello, Just had a question regarding statistical analysis. I'm trying to calculate the average of 4 numbers from a data set of 6 numbers in excel without manually choosing to average only the 4 numbers. e.g. 85 20 32 45 27 3 (total mean = 35.3 desired mean = 31) 100 30 27 40 21 1...

Of course we all know the standard symbols to use when drawing electrical circuits, but is there an analog for optical setups? I'm working of a poster and most of the symbols I'm using are just boxes with labels next to them, or just lines for mirrors and lenses.

Hello People, I'm and just somewhat confused about this topic. Lets say I have a sample set A with sample size= 101 mean =10 and sample stdv of 1 then sample set B with sample size= 100 Mean=15 with sample stdv of 2. If i add these two samples sets together I should get a new stdv that...

Sorry if this was posted in the wrong section. I'm only going to be a senior in high school and have never taken physics but I think I might want to study/major in it in college, obviously not for sure yet since it's still a long ways away. I've recently become interested in this stuff and have...

Hey guys! I'm debating learning a little non standard analysis but I have two problems; 1. I've seen a lot of critisism directed towards non standard analysis and I don't want to spend time learning about non standard analysis only to find out that it is logically flawed in some way 2. I've...

I can't even begin to type out the entire equation for the standard model of particle physics, it is just so immensely long and I don't have the time, energy, or patience to do so. So please excuse the fact that I don't have the equation on here to show exactly what I mean. Now, I understand...

i've read a lot of authors claim that the SM is enormously successful, that it has passed every experiment with flying colors, etc etc, i won't bother with quotes because i think everyone agrees on that. yet I've also read that the amount of dark energy that the SM predicts is off by anywhere...

Can someone explain me what is mass according to the Standard Model? I read that the Higgs boson "gives" mass to particles but I don´t understand what that means. :confused: Here's what I think I got so far : There is a field called Higgs field in all spacetime. It has a value for empty...

Homework Statement Given a polynomial P(x) and a divisor D(x), divide P(x) by D(x) and return the answer in the form P(x)/D(x) = Q(x) + R(x)/D(x) In this case: P(x) = 4x^2 - 3x - 7 D(x) = 2x -1 Homework Equations The one given above The Attempt at a Solution I solved the...

Homework Statement Just as the title suggests, although this is more to do with the formula. I know that for a sample, it implies it's a subset of a population. Why in the formula do you divide by n-1, whereas for calculating standard deviation for a population you divide by the total amount...

1) If X~N(μ,σ2, find the value of c in terms of σ such that P(μ-c ≤ X ≤ μ + c) = 0.95 Attempt: Ok so I have a feeling I will eventually need to reference a standard normal table, but I tried to standardize the rv first: P (-1 ≤ (X-μ)/c ≤ 1 ) = 0.95 Now here's where I'm stuck, what...

How do we graph a quadratic equation in the form ax^2+bx+c =0?, or an equation like , f(x)(or y)= [(x+b/2a)^2 - (D/4a^2)], where D = b^2 - 4ac? or how do we get a parabolic curve intersecting at its roots(of the quadratic equation) in the x axis?

I've done a decent amount of reading on the subject, and I used this method of course when reporting errors during lab experience I got as an undergraduate, but it was never quite fully explained to me why exactly we report a value +/- the standard deviation of the mean as our result. Why not...

Homework Statement Homework Equations ... The Attempt at a Solution Can someone just point me how to approach this? Do we take a random second degree polynomial and input 2x + 3 instead of x, then find the constants (eg. denoted by a , b , c) by putting the new equation equal to...

I was wondering if someone could please help me understand a simple problem of error propagation going from multiple measurements with errors to an average incorporating these errors. I have looked on several error propagation webpages (e.g. UC physics or UMaryland physics) but have yet to find...

There are 5 types of supersymmetric string or superstring: I, IIA, IIB, HO, and HE. Their low-energy limits have forms of supergravity, and some of them also have gauge fields. Here are their gauge symmetries: IIA, IIB: No gauge field I, HO: SO(32) HE: E8*E8 The gauge fields are all...

Must all models of ZFC (in a standard formulation) be at least countable? Why I think this: there are countably many instances of Replacement, and so, if a model is to satisfy Replacement, it must have at least countably many satisfactions of it. Does my question only apply to first-order...

Is it true that for every standard formulation T of ZFC, T ⊢ the power set of {naturals}? After all, the empty set axiom and the pairing axiom are in T, and so we get N. Then by the power set axiom we get P(N).

Standard from book: v(t)=K1e^(s1t)+K2e^(s2t) Can I have this below instead? v(t)=K1e^s1 + K1e^s2 - K2e^s3 - K2e^s4 I'm really confused, I sometimes get this when I do calculations. Any ideas? Thanks!

I hope this isn't deemed school related. It is something I learned in school, but I'm now trying to figure out a reaction model for my work. In the process of calculating the reaction constant, usually you first determine the Gibbs energy of formation of each species, find the difference...

Hello, I am trying to calculate what the margin of error for the standard deviation would be if each data point has a margin of error E. The standard deviation (for 3 data points) is defined as σ = \sqrt{\frac{(x_{1}-μ)^{2}+(x_{2}-μ)^{2}+(x_{3}-μ)^{2}}{3}} Where μ =...

Weinberg in his 1st book on QFT writes in the paragraph containing 2.5.12 that we may choose the states with standard momentum to be orthonormal. Isn't that just true because the states with any momentum are chosen to be orthonormal by the usual orthonormalization process of quantum mechanics...

I'm working with a \documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article} document and plan on adjusting the margins using the geometry package, but for this it would be handy to know an estimate of the current margin widths. Does anybody know them, or where I can find it?
