    Classical Landau
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on Landau's "golden list," which includes the Oppenheimer-Snyder collapse paper, as mentioned in the book "Black Hole." Participants inquire about the availability of this list and whether similar lists exist. The book references the list in Chapter 6, specifically on pages 82 and 99, but does not provide the actual list. There is a suggestion that researching in Russian might yield more information, given the Soviet embrace of the Oppenheimer-Snyder work. The conversation highlights the historical significance of the paper and the need for further exploration of related resources.

In the wiki page about Oppenheimer-Snyder collapse, it says that Landau added the paper to his golden list of classical papers. Is the list available somewhere? Are there other similar lists?

The citation from the wiki page is to Chapter 6 of the book "Black Hole: How an Idea Abandoned by Newtonians, Hated by Einstein, and Gambled on by Hawking Became Loved", chapter 6. The book mentions that list on pages 82 and 99. However, the book does not appear to include the list.
... the work of Oppenheimer and Snyder was a forgotten skeleton in the cupboard ... dismissed as the wildest speculation . ” But the Soviets had embraced their papers far earlier . Having those articles on Landau's "golden list" gave the ...
 
Maybe one should do research in russian. I'll try later, I know cyrillic so maybe that will help :wink:
 

Thread 'Need help on understanding particle physics and quantum physics'

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
