THE REAL ROOTS. “Space is a violent place, strewn with galaxies that have cannibalized each other to survive. Some of these survivors are galactic fossils, revealing glimpses of the past because they formed in the early universe.” https://lnkd.in/dVQCih6 View in LinkedIn

PSYCHOANALYSIS “has further taught us that our intellect is a feeble and dependent thing, a plaything and tool of our instincts and affects, and that we are all compelled to behave cleverly or stupidly according to the commands of our [emotional] attitudes and internal resistances.” (Freud). https://lnkd.in/dawKbt4 View in LinkedIn

THEORY CRITICAL. “In general, one cannot observe the dense matter directly, but the observations of stellar properties like mass, radius and cooling behaviour have to be interpreted using theoretical models in order to constrain the equation of state of stellar matter. In order to calculate strong interaction matter relevant for compact stars as well as heavy-ion physics we have developed and studied hadronic and hadron-quark models within the so-called chiral mean field (CMF) approach.” https://lnkd.in/dGXZSrf View in LinkedIn

PHYSICS = ASTRONOMY. “Studying the phase structure of hot and dense strongly interacting matter is central to many experimental and theoretical efforts in modern nuclear physics. As a complement to a range of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collision experiments targeting in particular hot matter, the environment of neutron stars samples high-density matter at very low temperature.” https://lnkd.in/dGXZSrf View in LinkedIn

PASTA MATTER. “In the first part of this paper, we investigate the possible existence of a structured hadron-quark mixed phase in the cores of neutron stars. This phase, referred to as the hadron-quark pasta phase, consists of spherical blob, rod, and slab rare phase geometries.” https://lnkd.in/dSt3xgn View in LinkedIn

THE NATURAL INGREDIENTS that Theophilus mentions include various plants, human urine, teeth and hair of very specific animals, and both human and animal blood. Dung was a key ingredient of one recipe. https://lnkd.in/d7yzXt5 View in LinkedIn
