  2. Tris(bipyridine)ruthenium(II) chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tris(bipyridine)ruthenium...

    Tris(bipyridine)ruthenium(II) chloride is the chloride salt coordination complex with the formula [Ru(bpy) 3]Cl 2.This polypyridine complex is a red crystalline salt obtained as the hexahydrate, although all of the properties of interest are in the cation [Ru(bpy) 3] 2+, which has received much attention because of its distinctive optical properties.

  3. Commentariolus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commentariolus

    The Commentariolus (Little Commentary) is Nicolaus Copernicus's brief outline of an early version of his revolutionary heliocentric theory of the universe. [1] After further long development of his theory, Copernicus published the mature version in 1543 in his landmark work, De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres).

    Since 2003, Jean-Pierre Luminet, et al., and other groups have suggested that the shape of the universe may be the Poincaré dodecahedral space. Is the shape unmeasurable, the Poincaré space, or another 3-manifold? Cosmic inflation: Is the theory of cosmic inflation in the very early universe correct? If so, what are the details of this epoch?

  5. Nebular hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebular_hypothesis

    The widely accepted modern variant of the nebular theory is the solar nebular disk model (SNDM) or solar nebular model. [1] It offered explanations for a variety of properties of the Solar System, including the nearly circular and coplanar orbits of the planets, and their motion in the same direction as the Sun's rotation.

  6. Conformal cyclic cosmology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_cyclic_cosmology

    Conformal cyclic cosmology (CCC) is a cosmological model in the framework of general relativity and proposed by theoretical physicist Roger Penrose. [1] [2] [3] In CCC, the universe iterates through infinite cycles, with the future timelike infinity (i.e. the latest end of any possible timescale evaluated for any point in space) of each previous iteration being identified with the Big Bang ...

  7. Quantum cosmology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_cosmology

    Therefore, a theory is needed that integrates relativity theory and quantum theory. [3] Such an approach is attempted for instance with loop quantum cosmology, loop quantum gravity, string theory and causal set theory. [4] In quantum cosmology, the universe is treated as a wave function instead of classical spacetime. [5]

  8. Dirac large numbers hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_large_numbers_hypothesis

    LNH was Dirac's personal response to a set of large number "coincidences" that had intrigued other theorists of his time. The "coincidences" began with Hermann Weyl (1919), [2] [3] who speculated that the observed radius of the universe, R U, might also be the hypothetical radius of a particle whose rest energy is equal to the gravitational self-energy of the electron:

  9. Joseph Larmor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Larmor

    Larmor believed the aether was separate from matter. He united Lord Kelvin's model of spinning gyrostats (see Vortex theory of the atom) with this theory. Larmor held that matter consisted of particles moving in the aether. Larmor believed the source of electric charge was a "particle" (which as early as 1894 he was referring to as the electron).
