Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4   The main number of free parameters in the Standard Model comes from the Higgs sector. If the many Higgs sector free parameters in SM are ultimately…

Today in Science Codex I read this article Monster mystery solved The Monster is a strange fossil, found only in the Mazon Creek fossil beds, roughly 30 miles south-west of Chicago.  It was…

I am very happy to report that Professor Giorgio Parisi won another prize. Parisi is an Italian theoretical physicist who is very well known for his decisive contribution to QCD, with the DGLAP…

For Pi Day 2016, I’ll demonstrate how to flash a Snap Circuits LED with the Kano Computer (my version of the Kano has the Raspberry Pi 2). I've lost count of how many computers I've built over the…

Back in January, Bradley Schaefer published a finding that promised to be a bombshell: KIC 8462852 had been dimming at a rate of nearly 20% per century since 1890 (Schaefer, 2016). The finding was…

PLOS One has been criticized again, this time America's most popular open access (no subscription required to read, scientists instead are forced to pay to publish) journal has been criticized for…

Majorana or Dirac Neutrino Masses? Small finite Majorana masses assume very heavy mass scale symmetry, considered in mainstream theories, but the predicted values of light neutrino masses from the…

People who are searching for the best natural arthritis pain relief remedies generally have a few traits in common. For one, people who are looking for the best natural arthritis pain relief remedies…

You might think your options for arthritis hip exercise are limited due to range of motion problems, as well as your pain. However, you might be surprised at just how many choices you have. Of course…

In this research we derived absolute neutrino masses by geometric interpretation of the Standard Model hierarchies. Numerous confirmations may indicate that, besides the problem of Higgs sector many…

A running meme throughout most of my life - and I came of age in the late 1960s and '70s, when pot was all the rage - is that people get stoned, then they get hungry. Any number of media portrayals…

Radioactive isotope in your tea, blatant patent theft and manuscript theft by a peer reviewer? Yep, these are all real actions by scientists who have screwed over other scientists just to get ahead.…

In my 2014 article about large systems I wrote that "what makes a system large is our inability to observe everything within the system".  Large systems theory has been one of my personal…

Information is not destroyed but it is even more scrambled up than anyone thought by black holes. I have used the framework of relativization, to compute the temperature of the proposed firewalls.…

               Higgs sector is the least advanced one in the Standard Model. There are two ways of developments – theoretical and semi…

Keeping the Gate is a "science and society" blog, which is to mean that it explores the relationship between science and society.  Journalists and producers play critical roles in regulating…

September 14th 2015, 09:50 GMT. A far spread out distortion of space crossed earth's path. The distortion had traveled at the speed of light for more than a billion years, all along the way spreading…

I HAVE A VIRTUAL REALITY machine in my fridge. It’s a banoffee pie, and when I eat two of them in the dark while listening to the Beatles’ White Album, I am far, far away on another planet, no…

LIGO the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory may announce the detection of gravitational waves tomorrow at 10:30AM Eastern time.  I will watch it  and  live…
