THE BEGINNING. “In models introduced to explain the observed neutrino masses, hypothetical heavy partners to neutrinos would have been copiously present in the early Universe and subsequently decayed. In the presence of CP violation, these decays could have generated the observed matter–antimatter asymmetry.” (CP = charge-conjugation parity-reversal). https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-01000-9 View in LinkedIn

ACCIDENTAL ERRORS. “Even if perfect graphene is able to be manufactured, subsequent integration or assembly processes into functional computing systems continues to create imperfections in graphene.” https://link.springer.com/article/10.1557/s43577-021-00135-y View in LinkedIn

ASYMMETRY ORIGIN. “How did this tiny excess arise from an initial Universe that was perfectly symmetrical? The amount of CP violation observed in quarks is not enough to cause it, so scientists have looked at leptonic CP violation in a well-studied mechanism called leptogenesis.” (CP = charge-conjugation parity-reversal). https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-01000-9 View in LinkedIn

FRAGMENT FROM NATURE continues from last weekend and concludes this weekend on the moiré interference caused by stacks of imperfect graphene and their tremendous applications. Carbon is now threatening to augment or displace silicone electronics. It is no accident that the strange properties of this atom resulted in carbon-based life. View in LinkedIn

MATTER>ANTIMATTER. “This imbalance, at a level of a few particles per 10 billion photons, is ultimately responsible for the existence of Earth, planets, stars and ourselves: if there were equal amounts of matter and antimatter, they would have destroyed each other in the early Universe and annihilated into photons. No matter would have remained.” https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-01000-9 View in LinkedIn

THE OMINOUS NUMINOUS. “The sense of presence considered here is an 'other' that is radically different from, and hence more than a mere projection of, the self. Such a numinous sense of otherness may constitute a primordial core consciousness of the animate and sentient in the world around us.” https://lnkd.in/e8k2TGHC View in LinkedIn
