Some Science News

Hello.

Some of you might have seen some of this or not but the link to the first article is actually quite something. The standard model has predicted more baryonic matter (protons, neutrons, electrons) then we have ever been able to observe and calculate. Well, turns out it is out there.

The second link is to a nice little article that is not too complicated. I have mentioned this on chat a couple of times. It is a new theory that gravity as a force (with gravitorns and such which have never been found) is not really that but what is called an emergent phenomenon. Think of sound. Sound emerges from the interactions of molecules it does not exist on its own.

What is really interesting here is if this is true, it puts paid to dark matter (which has not been found either) and matches the observable structure of the universe.

Now some ideas are circulating that time itself is an emergent phenomenon as well. Interesting stuff.
