Quote For Young People

Linus Pauling was a brilliant scientist and a social activist. He was awarded Nobel Prize two times. Here is one of his quotes for new generation that tells how to treat the ‘sagacity’ of ideological bosses.

The world progresses, year by year, century by century, as the members of the younger generation find out what was wrong among the things that their elders said. So you must always be skeptical — always think for yourself.”

Electric Dipole Ver 2.0: Physics Simulation

Electric Dipole Ver. 2 simulation lets you vary distance between two charges in any direction and distance from the charges while interacting with the model figure itself. In Horizontal and Opposite modes, selected from the GUI only positive charge, RED disk, can be dragged. In the independent mode RED and GREEN disks representing +ve and -ve charges can be dragged independently. The blue thick line is dragged vertically.

Early Universe in LHC:Science News

” …….. Physicists from the ALICE detector team have been colliding lead nuclei together at CERN‘s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in an attempt to recreate the conditions in the first few microseconds after the Big Bang. Early results have shown that the quark-gluon plasma created at these energies does not form a gas as predicted, but instead suggest that the very early universe behaved like a hot liquid. …… “
