AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the Reststrahlen effect, which is often miswritten as "Restrahlen effect." Participants note that while the term is frequently cited in various sources, comprehensive explanations are lacking. The Wikipedia article and references from Britannica are suggested as helpful resources for understanding the effect. The confusion arises from the German terminology, where "Rest" and "Strahlen" may not translate clearly into English. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the need for clearer explanations and reliable bibliographic sources on the Reststrahlen effect.

I search it on google, books, articles, everyone cite it but no one explain fully what it is. If you can: bibliography please! Thanks a lot!

Do you mean Reststrahlen effect? "Restrahlen effect" is a redirect to this page. As "Rest" and "Strahlen" are german, it might look a bit funny in english, and maybe the second "st" was left out somehow.
If yes, do the wikipedia article (and its references) help?

Yes, in fact in many publication is write "restrahlen" with reststrahlen I find much more. Thanks a lot!
 
Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'

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...
