Q_1_09 — Fate of the Universe

How will the universe end? This question has moved from philosophy and eschatology into hard physics, driven by the 1998 discovery that the universe's expansion is ACCELERATING (Riess et al. 1998; Perlmutter et al. 1999

Q_4_05 — Modified Gravity Theories

Modified gravity theories propose that the observed discrepancies between luminous matter and gravitational dynamics — traditionally attributed to dark matter — instead result from a breakdown or modification of Newtonia

Q_4_31 — Water Memory, Anomalous Properties, and Homeopathy Critique

The "water memory" hypothesis — the claim that water retains a structural or informational imprint of substances previously dissolved in it, even after dilution past Avogadro's number — sits at the center of one of 20th-

Q_4_06 — Baryon Asymmetry and Matter-Antimatter

One of the deepest unsolved problems in physics is the baryon asymmetry of the universe — the observed predominance of matter over antimatter. For every ~10⁹ photons in the cosmic microwave background, there is approxima

Q_4_16 — Chandrasekhar Limit: White Dwarf Physics and Stellar Death

The Chandrasekhar limit — approximately 1.4 solar masses ($1.4 \, M_\odot$) — is the maximum mass of a stable white dwarf star, the dense remnant left after a low- or intermediate-mass star (initial mass up to ~8 $M_\odo

Q_4_32 — The Fundamental Constants: Physics, Life, and Mathematics

The universe runs on numbers — and not arbitrary ones. A small set of fundamental constants, mostly dimensionless, determines every property of matter, energy, space, and time. Change any of them by a fraction and atoms
