AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a website featuring unique images of atomic nuclei presented in a layered format, which raises questions about its scientific validity. The term "nucleus layered view" yields limited results, suggesting the website may be the primary source for this concept. Participants express skepticism about whether the information is pseudoscientific, noting that while some content appears accurate, the layered depiction of nuclei is not scientifically supported. Further exploration reveals that the site may be related to a game focused on building atomic nuclei, potentially referencing the shell model of atomic structure. Overall, the conversation highlights the need for critical evaluation of unconventional scientific representations.

Hello, I happened to randomly come upon a website showing some interesting images of the nucleus of different atoms in a layered format I've never seen before [external link redacted]. In fact, when I googled "nucleus layered view", a term found on the website, it only had similar image references to this website. Just curious what this is about if anyone knows.

Hard to tell if this is pseudoscience or just silly, as other information on the site appears correct. But the nucleus does not have such a "layered structure."

I've redacted to link in the OP as this is not useful to learn about nuclear physics.

Thank you, having looked a bit more, it looks like some type of game where you build atomic nuclei...fun!
 
Perhaps it refers to the shell model? As in "shell" being treated as a "layer"?
 

Thread 'Why can't Solar panels be hemispherical, or a curved strip type?'

comparing a flat solar panel of area 2π r² and a hemisphere of the same area, the hemispherical solar panel would only occupy the area π r² of while the flat panel would occupy an entire 2π r² of land. wouldn't the hemispherical version have the same area of panel exposed to the sun, occupy less land space and can therefore increase the number of panels one land can have fitted? this would increase the power output proportionally as well. when I searched it up I wasn't satisfied with...

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...
