WEEK #5 Assignment



First I want to share this link to an animated explanation of the Higgs Boson which I found to be hugely entertaining and educational. 

http://vimeo.com/41038445

CP violation is when the assumption that all particles decay at the same rate whether time ran forward or backward, is violated. This happened when researchers experimented with the decay rate of the kaon particle.

There seems to be connections between sacred geometry and physics such as the Tree of Life in kabala and string theory, and the spiral and the golden mean.

My world is often asymmetrical - for example, my nose will shift to the left or right, seemingly randomly! (or maybe it depends on which side I sleep...)

  1. Thank you for the vimeo link. That was a great way to find some clarity for a non-physics person like myself. the animation made it more clear for me the patterns and relationships they play with one another in trying to determine the Higgs Boson findings.
