AI Thread Summary
Graphite sheets may serve as a substitute for carbon-loaded Teflon in millimeter wave dosimeters, as they are semi-conductive and can heat when exposed to electromagnetic radiation. The discussion highlights challenges in sourcing carbon-loaded Teflon, prompting the exploration of alternative materials. Teledeltos Paper, a type of resistive paper with a resistance of 800 Ohms per square, is suggested as a potential option, particularly when layered. The feasibility of using these materials hinges on their ability to replicate the desired heating effect. Overall, the conversation centers on finding effective alternatives for the original experimental setup.

Hi I'm trying to duplicate the experiment in the paper I've attached. I'm having some trouble sourcing the carbon loaded teflon described in the paper. Would something like graphite sheet work? I guess as long as you had something semi-conductive that heats so when EM radiation passes thru it, it should work?

WE have recently been discussing resistive paper on the Forum, maybe it will work, especially two layers of it? It is 800 Ohms per square. It is called Teledeltos Paper and is available from education suppliers.

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'

I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...

Thread 'Why is the 3 body problem unsolvable? And what will happen if someone solves it?'

I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
