Physics: Symmetry

My (a)symmetrical world -
If we're talking life, I'm neatly bookended by birth and death: transition thresholds which are crossed to enter/exit our seen world. As I near these thresholds, I become less complex, less independent, and contain less mass. In that respect, life looks like a perfect palindrome. In between those transitions, there are little symmetries that I look for because it feels comforting: synchronicities; finding things in common with other people; seeing 11:11 on a digital clock; recognizing shadow/light issues in self, society and history; patterns in natural forms. And word games like palindromes: "do geese see god?" Finding these symmetries sort of feels like the Universe is giving me a friendly poke.

Just what does this CP violation really mean?
At this moment, I really wish I had heard the lecture last week, because it's all very confusing.

C refers to Charge Conjugation - all processes involving particles should carry on independently when particles are changing into antiparticles; and P for Parity Change says that symmetry is maintained during Parity Inversion, which is the switch from the flip in the sign of one coordinate (left to right, etc), functions should be unaffected during (Charge Conjugation)(Parity) transformation. T refers to Time inversion - whether time is running forwards or backwards. This variable is very difficult to study.

The violation means an exception was discovered.
The Kaon's pedigree is: subatomic particle ==> Meson ==> Kaon. When decaying, Kaon matter and antimatter forms break down in different arrangements. According to the CPT theorem, this shouldn't be, because these changes shouldn't affect the process of decay. Yet it does. The time variable would also be affected by these changes. Although it can't directly be studied, deduction tells us that for the CPT theorem to remain true, the whole system of Kaon decay would be behave differently whether time was running forward or backwards.

Conclusion options: 1.CPT theorem is incorrect; or 2.Kaons are just weird. Since it would be too complicated to reconfigure CPT theorem, scientists have decided that Kaons is sensitive to time direction.

Are there connections between Sacred Geometry and Physics?
Thanks to this handout, I can say, yes, absolutely!

Sacred Geometry is how we refer to a language used by the ancients describing the world and its functions. Science is another language to describe the world and its functions. Physics has developed to describe the finer, more inaccessible and difficult functions.

Biochemistry Paper: The Microbiome and TCM

ACCHS Biochemistry Summer 2018 Professor Spears Sarah Donnelly The Microbiome and TCM The microbiome is an enormously interesting area right now. With steadily rising rates of gastrointestinal disorders, despite all the best that western medicine has to offer, people are looking for a solution which isn't worse than the illness. Clostridium difficile (C.diff) infections alone have doubled in the United States in the last decade. There are many variables which can contribute to all this gut-sickness, but the underlying problem is our western medical model. Our current model, with the finest technology and equipment at its disposal, has distilled all functional parts of the human body – flora and fauna, vitamins, probiotics, antioxidants, amino acids and the like – down to their very basest constituents. We have the machines which tell us exactly which nutrients we lack, and we pack it into pills and swallow it down. This is our preventative medicine. The body ...

Physics - Vibrations

Are all vibrations 'good'? - A 'good' vibration depends on who's involved! If good = beneficial, then no, not all vibrations would benefit all involved parties equally. The vibration which brings down a bridge is not good for the bridge, the workers, or anyone on the bridge. It is good for me, in that it's incredibly interesting and makes me wonder whether my humming could ever stop traffic, or if a cat's purr could cause an electric can opener to operate. Resonance in my world About 2 weeks after our class on vibrations, I got to use the new information in a dream. There was a guy who was showing me his new personal sound device – the ear buds were just tiny pieces of cheap styrofoam he broke off to put into my ears. No cords or anything. I asked him if they worked because they were attuned to the resonance of the player. He said no, the pieces of foam were sentient and only worked if they enjoyed what was being played. I went to a m...

Physics - Synchronicity

Prompt: "What evidence can you find for synchronicity Based on what you know, how would you explain connectivity?" This is such an interesting subject. It gets me tangled up and I don't know if I'm able to write about it. How to write a blog post on something I know to be true and real but don't have the vocabulary to describe it satisfactorily to another party. Who's satisfaction? Synchronicity depends wholly on the witness - who is viewing it? A synchronistic event can't be untangled from its viewer(s). Should it be? Does synchronicity need to be recognized? Any evidence I have for synchronicity is going to be subjective, and describing a subjective experience isn't evidence in a laboratory-objective-textbook way. And that's where I get stuck. I want to come across as very logical and full of right angles, and this subject is very irregularly-shaped. This entanglement idea - that teeny tiny bits in me are unfathomably connected to...
