21 hours ago · In physical cosmology, cosmic inflation, cosmological inflation, or just inflation, is a theory of exponential expansion of space in the early universe. The inflationary epoch is believed to have lasted from 10 −36 seconds to between 10 −33 and 10 −32 seconds after the Big Bang. Following the inflationary period, the universe continued to ...

21 hours ago · The volume rate of flow of liquid through a source or sink (with the flow through a sink given a negative sign) is equal to the divergence of the velocity field at the pipe mouth, so adding up (integrating) the divergence of the liquid throughout the volume enclosed by S equals the volume rate of flux through S. This is the divergence theorem.
May 29, 2024 · In particular, they themselves raise the issue whether expansion mechanisms are actually compatible with reversibility. Barbour et al. [ 10 , 11 ] use the \(n-\) body problem, with (non-local) Newtonian classical gravity turned on, as an enlightening analogy of big-bounce-then-eternal-expansion.
21 hours ago · Up until that time, attempts to make the old quantum theory of the atom compatible with the theory of relativity, which were based on discretizing the angular momentum stored in the electron's possibly non-circular orbit of the atomic nucleus, had failed – and the new quantum mechanics of Heisenberg, Pauli, Jordan, Schrödinger, and Dirac ...

21 hours ago · The English word Germany derives from the Latin Germania, which came into use after Julius Caesar adopted it for the peoples east of the Rhine. The German term Deutschland, originally diutisciu land ('the German lands') is derived from deutsch (cf.
