The Proton's Strange Magnetism
The proton is made of three quarks--two up quarks and one down
quark--but other types constantly flit into and out of existence. The
26 August PRL provides the first detailed picture of strange quarks in
this mix and indicates that they make a significant contribution to the
proton's properties. About 5% of the proton's magnetic moment comes
from strange quarks, according to the results, although theoretical
predictions have been ten times smaller. The discrepancy highlights the
serious limitations in the current calculation techniques.

Excellent! I think this pretty much confirms that virtual particles are
real and not just mathematical artifacts.

Hi Fred
They mention spin being aligned parallel to the direction of motion.
Doesn't this seem odd to you ? From straight Maxwell, magnetic
orientation has to be transverse to direction of motion.

Yes, for the scattered electrons that they were measuring.

Electron spin can be pointing any which way with scattered electrons. I
think they were only considering scattered electrons with spin parallel
forward or backward. I need to read the original paper I suppose.

Very interrestin' indeed,
Our 'theory' now shows us just how much easier it will be to create a
strangelet by accident inside the LHC... at least TEN times easier than most
nattering naybobs think. Just how much easier will future theory (reality
corrected) show us that having an 'accelerator accident' will be? Do we need
Alfred E. Newman telling us to start worrying before something horribly bad
happens??
The discrepancy highlights the
serious limitations in the current calculation techniques.
TRANSLATION into human-speak: "The discrepency highlights the almost total
ignorance humanity presently has regarding the chances of creating a world
devouring cancer. Current calculation techniques show us, however crudly,
that it may be *much easier* to destroy the world than had been previously
thought..."

Cheap!
