John Ellis | Full Interview | Supersymmetry, Dark Matter and String Theory Is there a theory of everything? Clerk Maxwell Professor of Theoretical Physics John Ellis explains how supersymmetrical particles and string theory could provide a theory of everything and help us understand the dark universe. John Ellis is a British theoretical physicist who is currently Clerk Maxwell Professor of Theoretical Physics at King's College London. He was Division Leader for the CERN theory division, a founding member of the LEPC and of the LHCC at CERN and currently chair of the committee to investigate physics opportunities for future proton accelerators. Ellis' research interests focus on the phenomenological aspects of particle physics, though he has also made important contributions to astrophysics and cosmology and quantum gravity. He was one of the pioneers of research at the interface between particle physics and cosmology, which has since become a sub-specialty of its own: particle astrophysics. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfHtA1b4ijg

ICYMI: Einstein’s theory of gravity only describes our universe if we assume the existence of dark matter and dark energy. It’s a fact that “kind of leaves a bad taste in some people’s mouth,” says theoretical physicist Leo Stein. Some researchers are striving to create a general relativity replacement that doesn’t rely on these dark forces, but new research is showing that’s a difficult proposition. LIGO’s detection of a neutron star collision last summer, in conjunction with studies on extreme star systems, are reaffirming many of Einstein’s ideas. In the process, they’re providing death blows to some alternative theories of gravity. www.quantamagazine.org/troubled-times-for-alternatives-to-einsteins-theory-of-gravity-20180430/

ICYMI: A technique chemists use to understand the organization of atoms has made its way into the realm of number theory. By tracking the way X-rays bounce within a material, researchers are able to divine whether the molecules are orderly or disorderly. Now, computer experiments diffracting light off prime number sequences are highlighting the elusive order in their mysterious patterns and giving us a “crystallographer’s view of what the primes look like.” www.quantamagazine.org/a-chemist-shines-light-on-a-surprising-prime-number-pattern-20180514/

A Path Less Taken to the Peak of the Math World From the archives: A bad score on an elementary school test convinced June Huh that he was not very good at math. Now he’s at the pinnacle of the math world, thanks to a chance with a legendary mathematician who somehow recognized a gift in Huh that Huh had never perceived himself. www.quantamagazine.org/a-path-less-taken-to-the-peak-of-the-math-world-20170627/

"This technique opens a way for us to figure out the behaviors in a lot of systems in which we don't have a good analytical prediction of what the relationship should be," Holt said. "This study combines expertise from a leading academic institution with state-of-the-art instrumentation of a national laboratory to develop a novel technique for probing matter at the atomic scale, revealing the ability of sound waves to control semiconductor quantum technologies," added Argonne senior scientist and PME Liew Family Professor of Molecular Engineering David Awschalom, a collaborator on the research. phys.org/news/2019-09-scientists-acoustic-interactions-materials-atomic.html

SPECIAL RELATIVITY AND THE LORENTZ SPHERE (PDF) ~STEPHEN J. CROTHERS~ The postulates of the Theory of Relativity are incompatible. A spherical wave of light is not transformed into a spherical wave of light by the Lorentz Transformation but into a translated ellipsoidal wave of light with a moving centre, even though the speed of light in vacuum is invariant. Consequently, the Theory of Relativity is logically inconsistent. It is therefore invalid vixra.org/pdf/1911.0013v1.pdf
