/sci/ - Science & Math

Good news everyone. I figured out what that thing you just incinerated did. It was a Morality Core they installed after I flooded the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin to make me stop flooding the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin. Incidentally you should all get comfortable im going to warm up the Neurotoxin Emitters.
You've been wrong about every single thing you've ever done, including this thing. You're not smart. You're not a scientist. You're not a doctor. You're not even a full-time employee. Where did your life go so wrong?

And we need to blast it with massive amounts of super high frequency photons constantly.
It's like a Farnsworth–Hirsch fusor for fucking light and gravity.

So /sci/, you are a scientist trying to test a hypothesis through an experiment.

If confirmed, it could mean a great breakthrough in your field of knowledge. If dismissed, valuable resources and personnel working on this hypothesis may be allocated somewhere else, possibly leading to other developments.

However, the experiment requires the use of human test subjects. Under the laws of your country, you are required to ask for written consent for this kind of experiment.

Said experiment can be carried out without the knowledge of the test subjects. In fact, knowledge of being part of this experiment might alter the test results, rendering the experiment useless.

You are faced with a decision: You choose to...

a) Fake the consents and carry out the experiment, breaking the law and disregarding ethics, but arriving at a correct conclusion and contributing greatly to science.

b) Get the consents and carry out the experiment, knowing that your data may be off, possibly leading to a wrong conclusion, that is bad either ways. But your conscience is clean, and you don't have to worry about being indicted or arrested.

c) Not carry out the experiment. You are convinced that it's best to wait until someone, maybe yourself, comes up with a better experiment.

d) Other (tell us)

So /sci/?

Ah, that brings back memories.

The reflection's equal. Means force is equally distributed. You would be shoulder to shoulder with yourself, but you wouldn't me exerting force. Imagine immersing a 3D person in 2D.

Let us graph this in 3-Space using rectangular coordinates. Up and down on OP's picture would be along the z-axis, left to right would be the x-axis and front to back would be the y-axis.

If we pull the blue portal to the exact middle half of the troll would be poking out of the orange portal. Vice versa for the orange portal. If we brought both portals to equal distance such that you're finger tip to finger tip with yourself, you could reach through and hold your own hand. Left hand to right hand. Topologically like a Mobius strip.

Now, the weirdness begins to set in as the portals approach the middle of the graph (you). I believe you would asymptotically approach your spacial reflection.

Imagine you grabbed your left hand with your right hand through the respective portals and the portals began moving slowly to encompass more of you going up your arms. You're still holding your own hands, but your reflection has begun to fold on itself.

I'm not yet versed in Calculus, so if someone can do vector analysis and approaching an axis using spacial reflections, I'd appreciate the help in formally expressing this.

It would tear the arms off and toss them into LEO. It does project force near the breaking point of as-yet uninvented materials after all.

why?

Science doesn't care who's in charge.

Urectum!

"If" is purely related to mass of star. "When", a star will start going nova happens if the "iron catastrophe" begins.

All heavier elements are produced when protons and neutrons add together, making heavier elements. This is fusion. Heat is also tearing apart the heavier elements, in fission, but mostly, stuff is being made. A star will create stuff with various atomic reactions until it reaches iron. Iron is special, it is energetically the middle ground between heavier things and lighter stuff. Iron starts accumulating in the core.

Heat no longer creates fusion or fission. However, pressure starts compacting the core of the star. Electrons and protons are squeezed together, and creates neutronium. The core compresses down to a tiny ball of density 10^17 kg/m. This happens incredibly fast... like 1/10 of a second. Stuff will keep falling inward, due to the sudden vacuum, making Neutronium even MORE dense than usual. So it bounces back, like a spring, and creates a supernova.

Now, it only gets to Neutronium when the star is around 8 solar mass or more. After its supernova, a black hole happens if the Neutronium is sufficiently massive to overcome light's speed. This is around 3 solar masses.
