electrodynamics and it related to a particle accelerator. I have researched the particle accelerator online and watched videos over the CERN, largest particle accelerator in the world. I would like to further my studies in this topic so I can develop a large understanding of exactly how and why the particle accelerator is used. Also, if possible, make one on a way smaller scale than the CERN. If I could meet a character from a book, I would like to meet Ender Wiggins form the book Ender’s Game.…
Niels Bohr was born on October 7, 1885 and died November 18, 1962. Bohr was one of the four outstanding scientist who helped construct the atom. Niels contributed to the atomic structure and quantum theory. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922 for his work. Bohr was a physicist, philosopher, and a promoter of scientific research. Bohr’s proposal stated that the electron revolve in a stable orbit around the nucleus and that the energy levels in which the electrons are on are discrete.…
Stranger Things is a Netflix original series that takes place in 1983 Hawkins, Indiana. Throughout the first season, three boys discover the reality of another world that coexists with our own while trying to find their lost friend, Will Byers. With the help of a government experiment named Eleven, the boys are able to understand that Will is stuck in another dimension. Using the boys’ Dungeons and Dragons game board, she explains that Will is stranded a world very much like their own. According…
As this topic is so broad, it would be impossible to investigate all the benefits and drawbacks that spirit science has offered on our world, so instead this paper will focus on a few: Knowledge and Social/Political Change. Spirit Science’s the idea that our are all connected. The idea that through love, anything is possible, we are the creator, people in general and through our awareness of the world around us, we can create a massive change in the way that we do things. Spirit Science shows…
In book one, the story begins at a control center for an organization called CERN. At this scene, the audience is introduced to particle physicist and Canadian researcher- Lloyd Simcoe, his fiancé- Michiko Komura, and his research partner- Theo Procopides. They, along with numerous other unnamed scientists, were working on an experiment of some sort using a device called the ALICE, A Large Ion Collider Experiment, detector to produce a particle named Higgs Boson. Although it is not clear what…
Space is a huge sea of unknown. We are simply specks of dust, trying to figure out the behaviors of giants. Thus it is apparent that the specks can not know much. For now. One of the biggest mysteries is the expansion of the universe; in the 1990s, we knew that theoretically, our ever-expanding universe was slowing down due to gravity, and that it would eventually collapse or keep expanding, just slower as time went on. However, thanks to the Hubble Space Telescope, we now know that to be dead…
I’ve been on this ship with the Hesperis crew for two months now. We are somewhere in the middle of space between Earth and Venus. Travelling to Venus takes about 5 months, which means I still have three months of living (a very generous term for this situation in my opinion) in a 300 ft3 room with three other people [1, 2]. Trust me it’s not fun. It is difficult enough to live in a cramped living area by myself. The most common topic when discussing human space travel is the effects radiation…
The understanding of the atom and the purpose of the atom has changed a over the past couple of years. Today’s society understanding of the atom is completely different compared to the past years. Over the years the understanding of the atom has changed. Scientist have made breakthroughs that have discovered new things and use of the atom.Scientist like J.J Thomson, Ernest Rutherford, and James Chadwick have made it possible for other scientist to improve on their discoveries and change how…
Vetra was a top physicist in CERN and made many discoveries but, he was also a Catholic priest. “There was one recurring thing, it was that science and religion have been oil and water since day one… Archenemies… unmixable.” This quote was said by Robert Langdon after seeing Vetra’s…
