Is quantum mechanical tunneling statistically independent?

Let us consider two boxes of different energies that are separated by a barrier and box 1 is filled with many electrons. The barrier allows the electrons to tunnel from box 1 to the other side...

Can the minimum Mean Squared Error of a neural network be predicted using the Canonical Correlation of the input and target matrices?

Let us assume we have a d1-by-d matrix (lets us call this one A) for the input and a d2-by-d (B) matrix for the target of a neural network. I see that the canonical correlation between the...

Do metal complexes in the same group have the same magnetic moment?

I am wondering an unknown magnetic moment of say [W(H20)6]2+ can be approximated by knowing the magnetic moment of [Cr(H20)6]2+. My intuition tells me that the magnetic moments should be...

Creating a Membrane using Capillary assembly process, is it possible?

Can capillary assembly of microparticles/nanoparticles be used to create a mesh like membrane with a defined pore size by using electron beam lithography to etch a grid-like trap pattern into the...

Can the change of melting/boiling point of water which occurs during the addition of salts be predicted using stokes radius?

I am wondering if one could ideally create a formula inputting the stokes/hydration radius of the ions involved and the charge of the ions to estimate the change in melting/boiling point of water...

Why does the colour of corners change when looking through clear polystyrene?

I have noticed this colour change occurring most noticeably whilst looking through clear polystyrene. I have attached a PDF document containing all the images displaying the effect. To test this I...

Any ideas how SpaceX can properly reuse rockets without running into fatigue crack issues?

I'm a bit confused as to how a full rocket can be reused without gradually increasing the risk of failure after every subsequent launch... are there methods to reduce the effects of crack growth...

Why is polystyrene about 1000 times as electrically conductive as Polypropylene?

By looking at the structure of both molecules, I see that both molecules have at least two non-conjugated sigma bonds, making conductivity due to resonance seemingly impossible. I read from this...

Can one use blind image restoration algorithms to observe molecules using a light source which has a longer wavelength then the molecule itself?

It seems to me that as the wavelength of the light gets longer than the object one is trying to view, the image should start blurring out, however i'm not sure if quantum mechanics makes this...
