Do you know an exact geometrical meaning of the quaternionic versors i j k?

For example the immaginary unit i of the complex numbers means rotation in a given plane of π/2 radiants. I'm also interested in physical interpretations of the quaternions i j k .

What is the general concept of space according to the views of Grothendieck?

Many say that Grothendieck has revolutionized the concept of space, but few explain in sufficient detail what this revolution is. I would like to know your position in this regard.

Can you connect an HPLC to a Mass Spec only at a certain time point?

Can anyone explain this method? Especially the last statement where it says only at 1.5 to 2.5mins was the MS/MS connected to the UPLC. How is that possible, is it a feature in this specific...

1. If I can quantize the atom using this hyperbolic spiral and classical physics, could nature do the same?

If we map as a continuous motion an ionising electron (beginning its journey at n=1) in an H atom, a specific hyperbolic spiral appears (see animation). When we solve this spiral formula, we find...

Is there anyone with experience in TEM analysis who can assist with a manuscript for an upcoming journal?

Hello dear colleagues, We have prepared a manuscript on NiTi-based alloys and are seeking a second opinion on our current TEM results. If you are a Ph.D. holder with experience in TEM and have...

Why reactivity isn't increased with more empty spots in valence shell?

If from a geometric perspective the non-halogens, non-noble gases have more empty spots in their valence shell, and the filling/exiting of any of the empty spots in the shell constitutes a...

Why doesn't chromium 2+ ion use all its d-orbitals to receive lone pairs from six waters in [Cr(H20)6)]3+?

I'm guessing it's because the ligand experiences too much electron repulsion or proton repulsion from the chromium to insert them close to the 3d-orbitals which are close to the metal nucleus. Is...

Is it necessary to covary exogenous constructs in a structural model?

I am working on a SEM model where i have 7 latent variables (6 exogenous and 1 endogenous). In AMOS when I co-vary the exogenous constructs, only 2 paths are coming significant out of 6. But when...

R. C. Mittal

As a mathematician I see no connection. Quaternions are mathematical structures forming a ring and dividing zero,i.e. there exist two non zero quaternion A and B such that A.B = 0 .

Giancarlo Luigi Meloni

Dear R. C.

as a pure mathematician

I see a lot of connections

between pure mathematical structures

and objects of the external world.

Quaternions form a skew field

so they cannot have zero divisors.
