You can only measure with complete accuracy the total angular momentum and the projection of the angular momentum on a single axis. This is called a complete set of commuting observables.

It's debateable whether or not it's "actually spinning" but it has the algebra of angular momentum, so it's just called spin regardless. You can think of it as like left and right handed polarization.

>Red pill me on NMR
Rotating magnetic fields cause the dipole moment of the nucleus to flip back and force at a particular frequency. This causes it to radiate when it flips to a state that is parallel to an established (static) magnetic field. In MRI machines, this static field is given a gradient so that the radiation's energy (which varies with the field) can be analyzed and the nucleus that radiated it can be located. The emission rate is only high near a chosen resonance frequency, so usually this is set so only particular nuclei resonant. Perhaps oxygen, so you can see where water is in the body.

>Does nucleus really twist and roll while precessing or it is just a figure of speech?
No it doesn't do that. Take hydrogen for example: in the reference frame of the atom, the orbital angular momentum belongs to the electron. The electron has spin and so does the proton (and neutron). The word "spin" is in retrospect a horrible choice for this phenomenon, but it's much too late. The proton has a non-spatial degree of freedom that can be completely described by two quantum numbers: the total spin, and the projection of that spin on some given axis (as the other anon mentioned). The reason why that quantum state produces a real magnetic field is a complicated question and involves calculating things in QED. Just know that it does, just as how the parameter of electric charge creates a real electric field in the reference frame of the particle.

Nothing is actually spinning. The quantum state of the electron or proton interacts with the electromagnetic(photon) field in such a way that the electron exists with a permanent magnetic dipole of a constant strength. Hence in a strong external field, you can break the symmetry associated with the orientation of the dipole and create energy gaps. External influence on the dipole changes the quantum state (the projection of the spin) and causes it to "flip" back and forth as if the whole nucleon were somehow rotating.

what's the minimum electrical theory i have to know to do electronics repair? i'm a maths major but i've always wanted to be handy with electronics. any book recommendations for the most basic electrical theory and electronics? i don't want to be dealing with surface integrals or anything just to learn how to fix a motherboard

>just to learn how to fix a motherboard

See dem capacitors? One of them is bad and you need to desolder and resolder each of them to find the bad one.
>>
>>8220881
If you ask me, the usual shops that do electronics repair know very little about the theory and they just study the in depth manuals that are made for literally any piece of technology.

Seriously, typical errors are usually documented by the manufacturer and all you need to know is what you need to replace to make it work again.

Genetic Determinism scores tipping point victory as genetic test becomes the best predictor of educational achievement.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3697029/Can-DNA-reveal-exams-Scientists-pinpoint-genes-used-predict-academic-achievement.html

But a new study has suggested it may be possible to predict a person's academic achievement by looking at their DNA alone.

Researchers have developed a new genetic scoring technique that explains almost 10 per cent of the differences between children's educational attainment by the age of 16-years-old.

A polygenic score based on 74 genetic variants thought to play a role in educational performance

'Through polygenic scoring, we found that almost 10 per cent of the differences between children's achievement is due to DNA alone.

'Ten per cent is a long way from 100 per cent but it is a lot better than we usually do in predicting behaviour.

'For instance, when we think about differences between boys and girls in maths, gender explains around one per cent of the variance.

A genome-wide polygenic score (GPS), derived from a 2013 genome-wide association study (N=127,000), explained 2% of the variance in total years of education (EduYears). In a follow-up study (N=329,000), a new EduYears GPS explains up to 4%. Here, we tested the association between this latest EduYears GPS and educational achievement scores at ages 7, 12 and 16 in an independent sample of 5825 UK individuals. We found that EduYears GPS explained greater amounts of variance in educational achievement over time, up to 9% at age 16, accounting for 15% of the heritable variance. This is the strongest GPS prediction to date for quantitative behavioral traits. Individuals in the highest and lowest GPS septiles differed by a whole school grade at age 16. Furthermore, EduYears GPS was associated with general cognitive ability (~3.5%) and family socioeconomic status (~7%). There was no evidence of an interaction between EduYears GPS and family socioeconomic status on educational achievement or on general cognitive ability. These results are a harbinger of future widespread use of GPS to predict genetic risk and resilience in the social and behavioral sciences.

Talking, and sex, are no different. It's just tonguing each other insubstantially.

Banter can be good, but that's beside the point. You can't sugar coat the truth.

I'll never submit to the idea of friendship being important.

I choose seclusion, and keep myself to partners and associates.

When people say it's normal because "everyone does it", these people don't have the same respect for [the whole of] humanity in every case.

When you look for a partner, do you consider everyone else? When you're recruiting for a job, does everyone else pass your mind?

"Everyone else?!"

Everyone else is a fucking mess of course I won't do what everyone else does.

Thanks for your time...

How can there be people like Engineers who can believe the moon landing was a fake? I can understand crazy people, attention seekers and conspiratards believing it but how do educated people fall for this meme?

What does /sci/ thinks about it?Yes I googled it already and while most scientists says that it matter how its rewired(if even true) rather than size does it mean that having above average size means that you have higher chance for your brain to be better wire.

There is at least a 0.3 correlation. Another anon linked another study which indicated over a 0.8 correlation. Look at pictures of members from the Mega and Triple Nine society. They all have way larger heads than normal. Regarding forehead size this may be confused due to hair lines so is not the best determinate for cranial volume.
>>
>>8220228
Continued: Have a high intelligence is present both from having a good mental mapping and a good cranial capacity. Since there is not too much deviance in brain mapping, aside from certain extremes of verbal intelligence (ie.: vocabulary), cranial capacity is a good measure of giving a rough estimate of one's intelligence. This is of course excluding outliers resulting from mental diseases or brain cell death via results from, say, drugs.

>You are now aware that thousands of years ago people were just as smart as they are now and that the massive historical and technological gaps are due almost entirely to an infectious disease that makes people into retards and because we have been in a cold period this disease has laid dormant in Antarctica but recently it has thawed and entered into the closest countries(South America). This also explains why the dawn of man began when we ran to cold areas, where the Zika could not make us stupid. Prepare for the next cave man era. If we don't successfully cull these members of our society then we will collapse trying to save them and all of our societal progress will be lost.

The ancient aliens man was correct, we simply have forgotten our history and this handicapping disease is responsible.

Since the dawn of time Zika has been that missing link, the missing piece of evolutionary evidence that proves that evolution does not go in only one direction, but both, in some sort of balancing act. As long as we make ourselves better, we will waste, until eventually the Earth reaches an environment that can support it's scourge and it sets us back to the cave man days. Thusly the Earth maintains full homeostasis and the environmental threat of humans is taken away again. This has likely happened many times in our history.
