The Mystical Dooyeweerd Once Again

Schwarzschild and Synge Once Again

We complete the historical overview about the geometry of a Schwarzschild black hole at its horizon by emphasizing the contribution made by J. L. Synge in 1950 to its clarification. KEY: Schwarzschild solution; Synge; black hole; horizon

Measurement without Theory, Once Again

Bailey and Collins (2011) argue that Greenwood, Seshadri, and Vandenbroucke’s (2005) hypothesis that the baby boom was partly due to a burst of productivity in the household sector is not supported by evidence. This conclusion is based on regression results showing that appliance ownership is negatively correlated with fertility. They also argue that the Amish, who limit the use of modern techn...

Once again about interchain hopping

Renormalization group equations and a phase diagram are derived for a system of two chains with a single-electron hopping between chains in order to correct the results of a recent paper by F. V. Kusmartsev, A. Luther, and A. Nersesyan, Pis’ma v Zh. Exp. Teor. Fiz. 55, 692 (1992) [JETP Lett. 55, 724 (1992)]. In a recent paper [1], the effect of a single-electron hopping (SEH) between chains in ...

Singularity: Raychaudhuri Equation once again

I first recount Raychaudhuri’s deep involvement with the singularity problem in general relativity. I then argue that precisely the same situation has arisen today in loop quantum cosmology as obtained when Raychaudhuri discovered his celebrated equation. We thus need a new analogue of the Raychaudhuri equation in quantum gravity. PACS numbers: 04.20.Jb, 04.2.Cv, 98.80 Dr 1 Singularity and AKR ...
