Interactive Hasse Visualizations and StereoScopic viewing
Along with added options for Left-Right and Red-Cyan Anaglyph stereoscopic outputs on the left side control panel…
I’ve added Interactive Hasse Visualizations to the #2 Dynkin Demonstration Pane. There is now a checkbox for showing the detail root vector data and Hasse visualizations (instead of the default interactive Dynkin pane). This is done from an integration of SuperLie 2.07 by P. Grozman.
If you have a full licensed Mathematica, use ToE_Demonstration.nb. For use with the free CDF Player, use ToE_Demonstration.cdf or as an interactive web page.
Universal History Simulations Added
I’ve added more features to the Universal History N-Body Gravity OpenCL GPU Simulation. Here are a few snapshots…
Big Bang – Planck Epoch
Inflationary Epoch(s) w/Pre & Post (These are built into my ToE as an accelerating space-time, varying FineStructure, c and hBar)
ElectroWeak Symmetry Breaking Epoch
Quark-Gluon Plasma Epoch
Meson Epoch
Baryon Epoch
Lepton Epoch
Big Bang NuceloSynthesis Epoch- Nuclei of Hydrogen/Helium/Lithium
Photon Epoch- Atoms of Hydrogen/Helium/Lithium
Matter Dominated Stellar NucleoSynthesis- Quasars
ReIonization- Galaxies
Dark Ages- Large Scale Structure
Recombination- Solar Systems/Chemistry/Biology/Sociology
Hacking (virtual) Reality
This weekend I hacked a version of the Oculus Rift stereoscopic 3D headmounted displays using household items.
The main technique was from Andrew Noske.
But not following the instructions, I made it out of lightweight card stock and used an $8 3 pack of 3+ reading glasses, and a bit of velcro on a nylon strap (which holds the weight of the iPhone or Android from the brim of your favorite baseball cap).
The pictures only show 2 pair of glasses, but I added the third to fine tune the focus. Unlike Google Cardboard, this has a full screen field-of-view (Google’s is only a small circle in the center of the square left/right halves).
BTW – Some of the free Hasbro My3D games work great (sensing head motion and use the holes in the bottom for iPhone to control the buttons).
If you’re wanting hands free utility, the baseball cap as a head strap works better to accommodate the weight of the phone (which is a bit further out from Cardboard’s shorter/smaller focal length). Without this, it is a bit heavy on the bridge of the nose and pulls away from the eye-glass ear grips.
New demonstration capabilities added
- A Universal history epoch selector on the N-Body gravitational cosmology pane.
- A periodic table physics particle display for each element.
- A calculation of the dot product of multiple Dynkin diagrams of the same rank.
- Source code visualizer button on the left side pane.
Higgs Mass Prediction Confirmed!
CMS closes major chapter of Higgs measurements
http://cms.web.cern.ch/news/cms-closes-major-chapter-higgs-measurements
Glad to see the more accurate CMS (as well as ATLAS’) Higgs mass homing in on my prediction of 124.443…GeV/c^2 (see http://theoryofeverything.org/TOE/JGM/ToEsummary.pdf).
Can’t wait for more data next year. Of course, validation that the theoretical model works as expected is as important as the experimental verification.
Added 3D and 4D Fractals and Surfaces (e.g. Calabi-Yau and Boy) to Pane 7
Another Wolfram Demonstration by Zeleny added – Navier-Stokes Chaos in 3D
I’ve added an interactive (Chaos) pane (#7). It is taken from Zeleny’s Five Mode Truncation Of The Navier-Stokes Equations. It now includes 2D and 3D visualizations of these equations. This will be a basis for study of a superfluid space-time theory to merge GR with QM.
Zeleny's Hadron Decay Wolfram Demonstration added
This weekend I integrated a fantastic demonstration by Zeleny which allows the visualization of the composite Quark particle decays. I’ve integrated it into the sixth (Hadron) pane which starts with Blinder’s demonstration to visualize the composite Quark-Gluon particles. These demonstrations are extended by allowing the selection of 2 Quark Mesons, 3 Quark Baryons and recently discovered 4 and 6 Quark Hadrons and also drives content of the E8 sub group projection pane (#3). I also added a query to show all experimentally discovered composite Meson/Baryon particles with the same quark content and added a decay mode button when decays are in Wolfram’s ParticleData Group curated data set.
