# gst: how to create a helix from a straight rod, “twist” or “bend” approaches.

<< There are two independent ways of creating a helix from a straight rod: curl the rod into a circle and then twist the rod all along its length to convert the ring into a helix (“twist” method), or deform the rod into a sine wave and then bend it with a sinusoidal distortion that curls at right angles to the first sine wave (“bend” method). Both procedures produce the same shape, but they generate different internal stresses within the rod, and their implementations require different amounts of energy. >>️

AA << say that their experiments could serve as a model for many physical systems that undergo handedness transitions, including the tendrils of plants, the flagella of microorganisms, and the strands of DNA molecules.  >>

# gst: local elastic properties of strongly disordered matter

<< The local elastic properties of strongly disordered material are investigated using the theory of correlated random matrices. A significant increase in stiffness is shown in the interfacial region, the thickness of which depends on the strength of disorder. It is shown that this effect plays a crucial role in nanocomposites, in which interfacial regions are formed around each nanoparticle. >>️

# game: noise-induced Parrondo's paradox in discrete-time qu-walks

<< Parrondo's paradox refers to the apparently paradoxical effect whereby two or more dynamics in which a given quantity decreases are combined in such a way that the same quantity increases in the resulting dynamics. >>

AA << show that noise can induce Parrondo's paradox in one-dimensional discrete-time quantum walks with deterministic periodic as well as aperiodic sequences of two-state quantum coins where this paradox does not occur in the absence of noise. >>️

# gst: emergence of chimeras driven by non-normality


<< The emergence of order in nature manifests in different phenomena, with synchronization being one of the most representative examples. >>️

<< Particular attention has been paid to the emergence of chimera states, where subsets of synchronized oscillations coexist with asynchronous ones. Such coexistence of coherence and incoherence is a perfect example where order and disorder can persist in a long-lasting regime. >>

<< Based on a symmetry-breaking mechanism, in this paper, (AA) shed light on the role that non-normality, a ubiquitous structural property of real networks, has in the emergence of several diverse dynamical phenomena, e.g., amplitude chimeras or oscillon patterns. >>️

<< Specifically, (they) demonstrate that the prevalence of source or leader nodes in networks leads to the manifestation of phase chimera states. >>️

# phys: a quantum gravity hypothesis on infalling matter (hunting for extreme Kerr black holes)

 << Quantum gravity refers to a group of theories—string theory, for example—that aims to reconcile the microscopic world of quantum physics with the macroscopic world of general relativity. >> 

 << Now theoretical work by Grant N.  Remmen (et al) shows that celestial objects called extremal Kerr black holes are highly sensitive to quantum gravity. >> 
 
  << A Kerr black hole is a rotating, electrically neutral black hole. It is said to be extremal if it has the highest possible angular momentum that is compatible with its mass.  Extremal Kerr black holes have yet to be detected, but many theories predict their existence. >> 
 
 They << point out that quantum corrections to general relativity would provide specific contributions to a quantity called the effective action, which describes the dynamics of a gravitational field. (..) under quantum gravity, the event horizon would develop curvature singularities—regions where the gravitational field is infinitely strong. >> 
 
 << the next step is to hunt for extremal Kerr black holes and to try to detect these curvature singularities through their effect on infalling matter. >>

# life: a proposito di '1or2achoos' (da Wuhan (?)), qui la cronologia

a proposito di '1or2achoos' (da Wuhan (?)), qui la cronologia di inizio dei 6 flu|covid che ho contratto dal gen2020 ad oggi con i relativi tempi di 'smorzamento' dell'infezione, trattati nebulizzando una miscela di alcool e H2O2 ( https://flashontrack.blogspot.com/2022/07/life-aproposito-di-1or2achoos-da-wuhan.html )

(1) 2020.04.11-16:04 ~12h (non vaccinato)
(2) 2021.09.01-07:40 ~12h (non vaccinato)
(3) 2022.06.11-08:26 18-36h (+1mese post vaccino, 3dosi)
(4) 2022.12.24-07:52 ~24h 
(5) 2023.02.28-12:09 ~24h 
(6) 2023.04.08-09:32 24-36h 

I tempi necessari per 'spegnere' questi  flu|covid sono tutti notevolmente inferiori (~80%) rispetto alle pregresse forme di flu che ho contratto delle quali ho memoria.

Invece non ho altre parole da aggiungere per commentare i diversi argomenti associabili a '1or2achoos' dal febbraio 2020 ad oggi.

Potrei (e.g. expectedepidemic, lockdown, greenpass, indicatori, statistiche, accademieacucciabili, sadichepredazioni, bucodibilancio, pastroky, ...) nelle bizzarre forme della poetica quasistocastica ( https://inkpi.blogspot.com/ ), ma mi astengo.
