The problems of DEW (Directed energy weapons)

The major technical problem of direct energy weapons like laser guns is overheating. The laser element rakes very much heat, and that's why it must have an effective cooling system. That's why navies of the woŕld are the first users of laser guns. Ships are rounded by sea, and seawater can be used in cooling systems of laser weapons.


Those Laser guns are the same type of lasers that are used in metal industry, and most of them are carbon monoxide lasers, what give extremely powerful radiation in the infrared area of the electromagnetic spectrum. Naval laser systems are working as a replacer of a normal anti-aircraft cannon. They simply cut off wings of attacking airplane. The problem of gas lasers is it is a tube filled with gas, what makes it a little bit hard to install to portable systems. Gas leak in the tube causes malfunction of the system. But why military men around the world are interesting with lasers?


The reason of developing of that kind of systems is that laser has limitless ammunition capacity. If a soldier uses laser gun he doesn't need any ammunition at all, and that makes laser very effective if it works.  Only thing what the user of laser gun needs is light to laser element, that the weapon will work. If we are talking about the problem of laser rifle, the major problem is that laser element must stand for strikes and hard handling. The problem with that limitless ammunition capacity is security. If laser gun goes to wrong hands, the problem is that those men don't need ammunition.


They must only get acetylene for that gun's YAG systems acetylene lamp, and after that, they are free to shoot. That causes problems with public security because nothing puts limits to shots. And that is a very bad thing if those weapons go in wrong hands. And if those weapons are used in criminal actions, the user can't be tracked by rifle picture on bullet or DNA what leaves to patrons. That will make those weapons extremely dangerous.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
