Does the photon have a transverse inertness (transverse mass)?

Consider two photons flying in opposite directions with equal energies E. The total impulse of such a system is zero, and the total energy is 2E, i.e. mass of this system is 2E/c2. Then the mass...

Is it time to end the myth of the repulsion of protons in the nucleus of an atom? Because the nucleons attract each other.

In the vortex model of microworld, special carriers are not necessary for creating nuclei in the field environment and maintaining their stability. All nucleons are spinning vortices. The flow of...

Dark matter is around us: it is a vortex of an electromagnetic field, isn't it?

We exist in a fractal world. We see the phases of water: water vapor, liquid water and ice on Earth. We see the phases of matter in space: Pre-matter (Dark energy), electromagnetic field (Dark...

Why the results when using wall thickness and when using shell conduction are different in ansys fluent?

Actually, I am running cfd simulation for a heat exchanger which has two fluids one hot and other one is cold fluid. there is a solid domain between them, which I removed and instead I have used...
