Spacetime interval Updated 2025-07-16
In the Galilean transformation, there are two separate invariants that two inertial frame of reference always agree on between two separate events:
- time
- length, given by the Pythagorean theorem
However, in special relativity, neither of those are invariant separately, since space and time are mixed up together.
Note that this distance can be zero for two events separated.

He used to train the 800,000 imperial guard troops at the Capital, much like Lin Chong. He's not one of the 108 Stars of Destiny.

B3 Oxford physics course Updated 2025-07-16
users.physics.ox.ac.uk/~lvovsky/B3/ contain assorted PDFs from between 2015 and 2019
Syllabus reads:
- Multi-electron atoms: central field approximation, electron configurations, shell structure, residual electrostatic interaction, spin orbit coupling (fine structure).
- Spectra and energy levels: Term symbols, selection rules, X-ray notation, Auger transitions.
- Hyperfine structure; effects of magnetic fields on fine and hyperfine structure. Presumably Zeeman effect.
- Two level system in a classical light field: Rabi oscillations and Ramsey fringes, decaying states; Einstein
- A and B coefficients; homogeneous and inhomogeneous broadening of spectral lines; rate equations.
- Optical absorption and gain: population inversion in 3- and 4-level systems; optical gain cross section; saturated absorption and gain.

Finally had to buy a drill set for some bloody Ikea furniture that needed drilling. OMG. Then it didn't have the necessary 7,00 mm wood drill bit, they were not documented by seller, but I bought one from Bosch and it was compatible and I managed to put up the bloody Ikea. Drill bit sizes:The included screw bits are:
- Torx: T10, T15, T20, T25, T27, T30
- Philips: PH1, PH2, PH3
- Flat: S5, S6
