| Question | — |
Why are there infinitely many modes of electromagnetic radiation? My question. I have started reading (on my own) B.Hall, "Quantum Theory for Mathematicians (Graduate Texts in Mathematics, 267)", Springer, 2013. In the introduction section, the author says that the black body cavity has infinitely many modes of electromagnetic radiation. I am wondering... (more) |

A: Is the Explicit Symmetry Breaking of Vorticity Physically Significant in Fixing a Scale? There is so much to unpack here. I am going to start this post and will keep adding to it as I get more thoughts. First, let me reiterate the most important thing - I do not understand the physics behind this derivation at all. I keep trying to come up with some explanation that would make any... (more) |

Let's return to my original interest: what does all that beautiful math mean physically? Let's go step by step. You start, essentially, with Helmholtz decomposition. That's good because it is a common thing in fluid mechanics. Then you apply your covariant derivative condition claiming that it "c... (more) |

Another little remark from me. Lagrangian or Hamiltonian formulations of mechanics are not common in fluid mechanics to say the least. The latest breakthrough article claiming to show a way to transform the Navier-Stokes into the Hamiltonian framework is J.W.Sanders, A.C.DeVoria, N.J.Washuta, G.... (more) |

First, a brief feedback on your explicit question. We don't normally use words "symmetry breaking" or "scaling symmetries" in fluid mechanics. That's why your question about comparison to symmetry breaking in fluid mechanics is rather niche. But according to your derivation, we can reformulate yo... (more) |
