The story so far:

In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination.

    iusedtobeapizza: Cherenkov radiation is electromagnetic radiation emitted when a charged particle (such as an electron) passes through a dielectric medium at a speed greater than the phase velocity of light in that medium. Basically it’s like a sonic boom but for light. Like when a charged particle moves faster than the speed of light in a local medium (e.g. light is 15 percent slower in water) It makes such a pretty colour. And reminds me of Einsteinium.

    Data sheets are the best thing known to man.

    Need to differentiate arctanh(x)? Got it here.

    Need to integrate (x^2-a^2)^-1? Got it here. 

    Need to know the series expansion about x=0 of sinh(x)? That’s right, got it here!

    ikenbot: scinerds: Two More Elements Added to The Periodic Table You can now greet by name two new residents of the period table of elements: Flerovium and Livermorium. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry officially approved names for the elements — which sit at slot 114 and 116, respectively — on 31 May. They have until now gone by the temporary monikers ununquadium and ununhexium. Welp, better update cho’ periodic tables

    Lumen series by Michael Taylor

    A current passes through copper electroluminescent (EL) wire, causing the surrounding phosphor coating to emit light. The wire is wrapped around the custom-made costumes worn by models or mannequins, and the movements are then recorded, capturing the kinetic energy.
