Did you know that hydrogen has been around for so long, that it began to wonder where it came from?

We are nothing but hydrogen at a fundamental level. The hydrogen isotope deuterium, really--we need some protons, too. Hydrogen was the very first matter element created--heavier elements were created by nuclear fusion in a star's dying core. We are the product of this. We are stardust. SPAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!!! And SAAAAGAAAN!!!

Nucleosynthesis and cosmic ray spallation are my main sources for what I study. I study in the where chemical elements first began, how they began, why they began and all of the different possibilities of the formations. Primarily nucleons and protons create a new nuclei. Deuterium is governed by nuclear weak force. Deuterium producing events are very rare because the diprotons in a star immediately decay back into two protons. Getting into a quantum level which I enjoy. Neutrino Oscillation which is like implying a non-zero mass won't have properties of particle physics, like quantum electro/chromo dynamics. I guess so I don't write a novel on EP, there is 4 key things to look for. Energy of the mass eigenstate, the time propagation starts, three dimensional momentum, and the current position of the particle, starting with which particle undergoes such a process of randomness. Oh boy this is gonna get me into solar masses and the 6 main elements of a star. lol but it's cool to see someone is as interested in this subject as I am. Much respect.

In my bed, NOW.
o.o

I'd put a more intelligent answer here, but I'm fried from the schoolweek, so if I remember, I'll reply to you tomorrow with a more thought-out response to your response. But really, if you talked like this to me in real life, you'd surely win me over. Please, continue your rant. I *love* it. Go ahead and write that "EP novel" haha :P

mGunt92

Yea you would win me over to haha, my friends can't even begin to comprehend any of this so I never get to talk about it. I just do my research and write down what I know. If I don't know something or maybe got something wrong, I learn and correct what I can. Knowledge really is power, I strive for it on a daily basis because it is my passion. Just these couple messages made my day and the next couple. Knowing I'm not the only one. No worries on replying right away, or at all for that matter. I'm a forgetful person at times, so It's completely understandable with school being your main priority (◕~◕)

Primarily "nucleons" do you mean neutrons? I haven't heard of nucleon. Are they a fundamental particle? Or a class of particle? Wow, you're talking about things over my head--but please explain! I'm hungry to learn! I have never even heard of "eigenstate." Please continue ranting about solar masses! Although, I do know about the six plain elements of the star: the first six elements on the periodic table, right? Once it hits iron, it's doomed. :D

TetrisGuy · 26-30, M

You made my day, too! I never thought I'd find someone else my age, especially on EP, as passionate in a subject as I! Knowledge is most definitely power: It's the only thing I find attractive in a human. Intelligence is the only thing that'll further humanity--and thus is the only thing that's important. I live for math and science. I live for future research. I live for my dream of discovering something big. I like to say "Doing math is like having sex with the universe. The universe is like a stripper, waving its gloriousness in front of my face, enticing me, calling me to take a peek, to take a snatch, with all its beauty. I grab it and strip off all its visuals--its clothes, so to speak, and underneath is nothing other than math." :P

¬_¬ I'm completely confident that either it's coincidence, you and I, or we were separated at birth haha. Each and every thing you are describing is how I've always felt. I just wish you were someone that lived in my town so we can share knowledge in person. I've got something big for this world, and I know you do too. I remember hearing someone talking about how each human brain has an exact twin inside someone else somewhere on Earth, but I never believed it for some reason. Now I can see it is viable an every level. Ahhh the human imagination, puts a dash of creativity in my coffee everyday ☢

It's one of the particles that make up an atomic nucleus

And Eigenstate is something from quantum mechanics, a value that depends on the state of the wave equation. Eigenvalue is a set of values used to describe a different equation with a non-zero mass, any number like a matrix, minus the number, times the identity matrix, has a zero determinant. All of these 'eigen' definitions(eigenmode) would best be described like this; When a normal oscillating system and all of it's parts t move sinusoidally with the same frequency. A normal eigenmode for example can be resonance.

Where DO you live? I live in Orlando, FL, heh heh. Yeah, I'm never able to nerd out in person with anyone... no one wants me to nerd out on them. Heh heh, I never thought that this earth housed my twin... either they'd be far out of my age group, or they'd already be taken. Well, quantum duality states that there's an *exact* copy of me elsewhere, but you know what I mean! Haha! Human imagination: few use it properly, but those who use it are capable of great things!

TetrisGuy · 26-30, M

Ah, I see ^_^ Like gluons?

TetrisGuy · 26-30, M

I see ^_^ Means I'll probably soon learn about eigenvectors and such in AP Physics; we just started up on Simple Harmonic Motion. That class is so dense! But fascinating!

mGunt92

Ahh yes, direct proportion meets displacement. I never got to learn that one in physics class but I guess I am my own teacher in ways, more or less the internet itself is my teacher.

TetrisGuy · 26-30, M

The internet and documentaries are my teachers :3

mGunt92

Haha yes! I thank YouTube for the free documentaries, as well as torrent browsers so I can actually download the whole video. Michio kaku would have to be my favorite when it comes to any science and the explanation of it all.

TetrisGuy · 26-30, M

My god I LOOOOVE Michio Kaku!!!
