How did you find PF?

Hi All,

Glad to be on this forum, I'm an imaging software developer mainly turned physics researcher in photonics and it became apparent how closed off some science institutions can be contacting and getting any engagement with any science proffesional if your not affiliated to an institution however, speaking to a junior doctor once you get face to face and describe any research its pretty easy to engage even though you may not have a Phd etc and with this kind of science discovery finding "how to" best move forward in the arena is the key.

Firstly though its worth noting some journals are more accessable and even bigger ones like AAS but above all It all starts with credible empirical evidence and more so speaking the language of science journal writing. Not all science papers are calculation heavy but even so you need it to communicate any factors of anything as a rule. If you've re-written an abstract and introduction 50 times thats tenacity. Advice from a thesis adjudicator. Keep on coming back to it!

Welcome to PF.

Please be sure to read the PF Rules (see INFO at the top of the page). We discuss mainstream science as published in the peer-reviewed scientific literature and mainstream textbooks. We are not a website for publishing your own work.

Hello everyone, I was advised to join this community while seeking guidance on how to navigate the academic world as an independent researcher. My name is Omar, and I'm based in Groningen The Netherlands. My formal physics education ended after high school, but I have dedicated the last several years to developing a theoretical framework from first principles. My work focuses on a topological field theory (which I call Swirl-String Theory) that models particles as knotted vortex...
