Physics Week 5

My (a)symmetrical world

I see the world as much more asymmetrical then symmetrical. It is much more rare for 2 sides of something to be exactly symmetrically the same. When you look at something like a face it seems symmetrical if you divide it down the middle. There are an eye on each side, an ear one each side, etc. But when we look closer there will be differences in the 2 sides. I think this is with a lot of things. Something seems symmetrical but when we take a closer look there are actually not. I do not think the world would be as beautiful of a place if everything was perfectly symmetrical.

Just what does CP violation really mean?

I was very confused when reading about CP violation. From the reading what I got was that it was a theory that is potentially flawed, like the uncertainty principal. Scientists had assumed that all particles would decay at the same rate whether time ran forward or backward. There was a flaw when experimenters changed the charge and parity of the particles in the koan system. What happened was the koan’s decay rate changed when the theory said that this would not happen. Therefore the theory was violated.

Are there connections between Sacred Geometry and Physics?

I think that Sacred Geometry is more mysterious and uses more spiritual practices while physics tries to figure out the mysteries of the universe. While reading it seemed to me like Sacred Geometry as future went on showed to have a lot of mathematical value that physicists could use. There is many similarities between sacred geometry and newer discoveries in science. They are just presented and discovered in different ways.
