How did you find PF?
Just searched for a forum
Hello
I am a retired person who had a colorful career in education and science. I was an instructor in the Navy and taught at ITT technical school, not a big item on anyones resume. I was a Physics major in college but unfortunately, I never got a Masters or Phd. The money available for working was too good to pass. That was over 40 years ago. I did get an interview at Cal Tech to work on the LIGO when it was still a test concept, but the job went to an undergrad, as it should.
I am here because I strongly miss intelligent conversation and I love Physics.

You'll find a lot of physics here. How much of the former you'll find is another matter!

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...
