he reproducible phenomena of Nature. Suppose certain external constraints act on a system. Examples include the solar radiation input at the top of Earth's atmosphere, the temperature gradient imposed across a Bonard convection cell, the velocity gradient imposed across a sheared fluid layer, or the f

we can also exclude Australia, which is almost all desert, and Russia, which is mostly tundra. The European part of Russia can approximate for the Himalayas and central Asian deserts. Similarly we can exclude Canada, largely tundra, and also to compensate for the Rockies and deserts of the USA and Mexic

dropping the ‘3.0 x’ part and just looking at the order of magnitude. The number 10°, one with eighty zeroes after it, is the number of atoms in the Earth, and 10’ the number of particles in the known Universe. 10° meters is the ‘plank number’ believed to be the smallest dimension you can have, and 10!”

rse, you are indebted to thugs and criminals, but they are at least reliable thugs and criminals. On the other hand, the traditional products of the Himalayas - walnuts, pomegranates and vines — need years to cultivate. There is no forward market and the timescales over which you must take risks are far gre

0. The strands of cable needed to make up the magnetic coils in the LHC span about 270,000 kilometers, or about six times the circum- ference of the Earth. If all the filaments in the strands were unrav- eled, they would stretch to the Sun and back more than five times. 11. The total energy in each bea

Besides being a physicist of almost otherworldly ability, 't Hooft is also a remarkable artist. He won the 1980 summer school's a
