Extended Einstein–Cartan theory à la Diakonov: The field equations

Extended Thermodynamics: a Theory of Symmetric Hyperbolic Field Equations

Extended thermodynamics is based on a set of equations of balance which are supplemented by local and instantaneous constitutive equations so that the field equations are quasi-linear first order differential equations. If the constitutive functions are subject to the requirements of the entropy principle, one may write them in symmetric hyperbolic form by a suitable choice of fields. The kinet...

Consequences of the Extended Field Theory

We all learned from our textbooks, that the field equations according to Maxwell do not describe potential vortices in the dielectric such as vortex losses in capacitors. But this was yesterday. Since Science and Nature have reported in 2009 about the development of magnetic monopoles by the German Helmholtz Society [12] the 3rd Maxwell equation (divB = 0) is describing only a special case and ...

Médecine à la Molière.

Of Moliere's thirty six plays, seven deal, to a greater or lesser extent, with medicine; the medicine as practiced in Paris during the reign of Louis XIV. In these days, Moliere satirises the recalcitrant conservatism of the Paris medical faculty. It is, however, an informed satirisation. This paper explores Moliere's motives and attempts to place Moliere's medical plays against a broad canvas ...

Death à la carte

Delegates arrived at the hotel on a rainy Sunday evening where they were immediately made welcome and encouraged to relax over dinner while chatting to other EWCD (European Workshop on Cell Death) participants. The EWCD is a bi-annual conference that focuses on all aspects of cell death. Each conference is held in a different unique location, with this year’s being no exception. The six-day mee...
