Quantum of Solace

How do scientists know there are such things as atoms? The short answer is that they don’t. No one has ever seen an atom. However, there are many more ways to show that something could exist than to have ‘seen something’. The idea of the atom has been hypothesised since around 440BC, but the idea has only been widely accepted since the early 19 century, when the atomic theory was first proposed. Since then, our understanding of the atom has significantly developed. But why is the atom so widely…

Moving Target Defense The current cybersecurity environment is based around a static defense that has been employed for the past few years to protect information systems (See Figure 6). Unfortunately, this cybersecurity paradigm is not effective against current and future cyber threats. According to Zheng (2014), the weakness of this cybersecurity approach is its passive and reactive nature towards safeguarding information systems. Additionally, this method also allows threat actors the time…

could be affected, moved, or changed without being physically affected by another object, has raised different arguments throughout history. Some believe that action at a distance would describe all the uncertainties of quantum physics and would help us understand the unknowns of quantum mechanics. There have been varies experiments that support the claims of action at a distance and those who disagree and look to disprove this concept. One of the experiments that disproves the argument is the…

where does this energy originate from? Currently, there are two prominent theories in the physics community that predict a vacuum energy. These are Quantum Field Theory and Supersymmetry, referred to as QFT and SUSY respectively. Each of these theories predicts a different value for the constant vacuum energy density (Lecture 1). According to Quantum Field Theory, in every point of space, there is a small harmonic oscillator of every possible frequency. When these oscillators are excited with…

secret, of course) of the main villain. The quirky spy cameras were a big hit in the sixties and seventies, with people buying them for different spy-tastic purposes. You could even find one these days through eBay. Multitouch Table from Quantum of Solace…

Julian Schnabel released in 2007 that tells a touching true-life story of Elle editor Jean-Dominique Bauby. Schnabel made this film based on a book that was written by Ronald Hardwood and Jean-Dominique Bauby (“The Diving Bell and the Butterfly”). Schnabel is an American director and had one Oscar-nominated performance for Javier Bardem in Before Night Falls in 2000 (“Schnabel”). The Diving Bell and the Butterfly is a true story of Jean-Dominique Bauby. Bauby was in a coma for three weeks after…

Answers to these questions are often agreed upon over time, but in some cases, our understanding of the world can be too narrow to be able to fully explain a phenomenon. A paradigm to this idea can be found in quantum physics where physicists are unable to concretely understand the results of the two slits experiment. A brief summary of the experiment is that when physicists observe photons going through a set up where they have two slits and a sheet of photosensitive…

During the latter part of their evolutionary cycle humanity was deeply worried about its own demise. Perusing through the numerous, surviving records of the era, it is fairly easy to identify some of humanity's most common fears: zombie apocalypse, disappearance of bees, evil artificial intelligence, different types of nuclear Armageddon, genetically modified foods, biological weapons gone wild, evil alien invasion, meteor impact, religious rapture, Ebola epidemic, and others. Humans were right…
