Physics far beyond

The question where we've all come from has been fascinating for the ages. Quite many of us have heard the scientific explanation of the Big Bang that gave the birth for the universe. Georges Lemaître, a Belgian cosmologist and Catholic priest, introduced Big Bang in his scientific paper in 1931, stating that the observable universe began at a definite point in time. Edwin Hubble had confirmed through analysis of galactic redshifts in 1929 that galaxies are drifting apart. Thus expanding universe could be traced back in time to an originating single point that is actually approximated to be happened nearly 13,8 billion years ago. There were different theories of the steady-state universe still in the following decades till 1964 when the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) was  discovered,  that had been a prediction of the Big Bang theory. The CMB is an uniform background radiation throughout the universe caused by the high temperatures and densities in the distant past. Act...

In the classical physics Newton's laws of gravitation explained gravity as a fundamental attractive force between any objects having mass. According to a legend Isaac Newton realized that there must be a force when an apple dropped from a tree. Around 1687 he presented that the force behaves same way between the Earth and moon or Earth and any object. Later the mathematical presentation of the gravitational force was determined as it's strength was proportional to the masses and inversely to the their distance square. Additionally, to make equation to work in the standard units a multiplier called gravitational constant was needed. By1862 James Clerk Maxwell described that electric and magnetic fields are generated by charges and currents. Analogously, Gauss's law for gravity presented gravity as a field caused by mass according to Newton's law in the classical physics.  In the early 20th century the modern physics changed our understanding of the reality.  The theory o...

After a couple of years following physics news, blogs and other articles the idea of creating this blog just happened today. It had been over 15 years from my university physics courses and all the math behind it was forgotten. Meanwhile there has been a journey to find personal sources of inspirations. A curiosity to understand and learn about fundamental questions of existence was one. It keeps mind young and is good exercising like crosswords for someone. One source of inspirations is the book Physics and Beyond written by Werner Heisenberg who was one of the key pioneers of quantum mechanics. No wonders for the name of this blog. The book contains discussions with famous scientists from many fields not only physics. This blog follows the novel research but revisits the same questions at the time the book was published in 1969. The blog is written in a commonly understandable way for persons having not deep expertise. It also presents some intuitive reflections that are not based on...
