John Turner: N-Body Simulation with 70,000+ Particles at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSeEg5XwGGo John Turner, I can think of many ways to make this easier for humans to see, to monitor for useful event and situations, to visual new things. First, you are showing position. You can also show velocity and acceleration, you can summarize statistic on changes, you can

Infrared Detectors, Detector sensitivity, “the Jones Unit”

Richard K Collins Assistive Technologies, Units Dimensions Formats Reference Values June 11, 2023

https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Antoni-Rogalski I came across this entry for your book on ResearchGate but it does not seem to be connected to your profile. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/343958463_2D_Materials_for_Infrared_and_Terahertz_Detectors I am looking at infrared detector sensitivities to see which might be getting close to where they will pick up gravitational variations. Many new detectors now can pick up what is termed

THz imaging in quantum Hall conductors and superconductors. Gravitational energy density and gradients

Richard K Collins Assistive Technologies, Electrokinetic Electrodynamic Field Methods, Electromagnetic Gravitational Field June 10, 2023

Susumu Komiyama, I was looking for your paper, “Electron temperature of hot spots in quantum Hall conductors” and found this THz imaging paper on ResearchGate. I think at zero temperature the magnetic energy density and its gradients are important. “hot spots” are just part of it. I was looking at ways to push the fields

Florida High Magnetic Field — Reentrant Superconductivity, Spin Flop, near gravitational magnetic fields,

Richard K Collins Assistive Technologies, Electrokinetic Electrodynamic Field Methods, Electromagnetic Gravitational Field June 9, 2023

APS Physics: Large-scale Scientific Facilities and Diplomacy at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtKEWt-WuCo Laura Greene, I have been studying (looking for ways to create and maintain) high magnetic fields (over 400 Tesla) for more than 50 years now. Every few years I check to see what MagLab has been doing, but the website always seems a bit chaotic and incomplete.

The Action Lab: Lasers, LEDS, lenses and focusing intensity to burn or illuminate things, vortex pressure

Richard K Collins Assistive Technologies, Collaborative Model and Data, Efficiency Prizes, Gravitational Engineering June 2, 2023

The Action Lab: What Happens if You Focus a 5W Laser With a Giant Magnifying Glass? Negative Kelvin Temperature! at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdjTYlReE-I The intensity in Watts/meter^2 is roughly equal to the Stefan-Boltzmann constant times the 4th power of the temperature in Kelvin. When you focus parallel rays to a smaller area, the intensity goes up, and the

Global molecular research is hampered by every group creating their own website policies and practices

Richard K Collins Assistive Technologies, Collaborative Model and Data, Internet Best Practices, Internet efficiency June 1, 2023

  I am reading at https://www.opnme.com/opnMINER/document-data?ocDocId=5604694&repo=pmc. The background, text color and layout are difficult to read. Is there any way to turn off the background animation, set the font weight and size to readable values? I came across a note on ResearchGate asking for proposals. I was interested in your site and purpose. For the

Atacama: Teaching radio astronomy and science and measurement to students in nearby countries, should help all countries

Richard K Collins All Sky Cameras, Assistive Technologies, Collaborative Global Model of the Sun May 29, 2023

Atacama Makers teaching radio astronomy and science and measurement to students in nearby countries https://almaobservatory.org/en/announcements/atacama-makers-innovating-from-the-schools-of-the-desert/ Valeria Foncea, I visited the Atacama Makers page.  It was very dissatisfying.  None of the pictures was explained. If you are helping one country’s children, but could post materials online for 5 billion Internet users, that is just sad if
