I like physics, especially experiments on amateur level. From making like a syringe generator, demonstrating the diamagnetic nature of water, making a small pump etc. If you know ArvindGupta or Overengineered videos on Youtube, I like to make things like that and learn the physics behind them.

Thread 'Introduction: Independent Researcher in Foundational Physics'

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...
