Humans can colonize Milky Way Galaxy through intelligent devices, and search for gravity signals

Humans can colonize Milky Way Galaxy with intelligent devices, and search for gravity signals. — Galactic civilizations using intelligent devices can live billions of years. So the most likely “species” for human devices to meet would be intelligent devices. Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope might look for intelligent messages in the galactic plane. And space

Eventually all the vacuum, quantum, noise and gravitational engineering groups will work together

Put the data from your devices on the Internet and share it live 24/7 with everyone in the world, so it is “all humans” not just “us”, then I will start to believe your words.   Archive the noise so it can be studied. You can get to where your systems are sensitive gravimeters, and

All “exact” models have to live in the real world, even Rapunzel had supplies and an early form of Internet

Physical Review Letters @PhysRevLett An exact full set of matrix product states of highly degenerate tricritical Lifshitz points in the quantum spin model with anisotropic interactions has been discovered https://go.aps.org/3Q3Pxna https://pic.twitter.com/w22Em2B3EZ Replying to @PhysRevLett It only looks simple because you use simple potentials with no real world inputs. In the real world, every tiny cubic

Sub nanosecond flash 3D video sampling allows gravitational imaging, “imaging accelerometry”

I am interested in your “double exposure”. 200 ns would be 5 Mfps. Can you say which specific cameras from Imperix or elsewhere can support that? I am also interested in LWIR “thermal” camera for passive radiometry. Do you have anyone interested in camera interface standards? There are many cameras, and the cost of storing

Add diamagnetic gravimeter to the list of ways to make chip scale gravimeters and their imaging networks

Diamagnetic magnetic levitation at nanoscale is one way to make chip scale gravimeters. A “gravimeter” is an accelerometer that can track the sun and moon by their gravitational fields precisely. https://arxiv.org/abs/2105.13555   The three axis signal allows “gravitational GPS/GNSS” and “gravitational compass” in 3D. Array for imaging atmospheres, oceans, magma and interiors of things. After

Updating a link on Hackaday.io for Low Cost, Time of flight, gravitational imaging arrays

​https://hackaday.io/project/164550-low-cost-time-of-flight-gravimeter-arrays/log/208711-more-information-posted-at-researchgate-on-3-axis-gravimeters/discussion-195371 https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Richard-Collins-16 ResearchGate canceled their project support last year and I managed to save some things before they erased everything. I had/have a few dozen followers and collaborators.  I have been working on many things and still many different designs and things related to gravitational imaging.  But I am not making devices, only checking components. Do you

Every day gravity is Newtonian, and gets more interesting at higher sampling rates

https://twitter.com/RichardKCollin2/status/1741046739237228715 Sensitive three axis gravimeters show that vector sun moon tidal signals are nearly perfectly Newtonian, only requiring three linear regressions (6 numbers) to lock a station to the sun and moon for position and orientation sensing. Many types now.   https://twitter.com/RichardKCollin2/status/1693165581329985565   This is one month for the vertical component of the vectors signal.
