Question on the calculation of the flux of a subtance at a point across any surface

How would one notate the operation leading to Eqn(1)? The flux of a substance at a point $P$ is represented by the vector $f_i$, and its vector components...

Dependence of chemical potential to zero point of energy

The chemical potential is defined as:$$mu = -Tfrac{ partial{S(N,V,E)} }{ partial{N} }$$It seems to me that this is completely independent of where I put the...

How does the Fine Structure Constant Vary with Energy?

Like my topic, how does the fine structure constant vary with energy?I looked it up and found:$$alpha_{eff}(q^2) = frac{alpha}{1-frac{alpha}{3pi}ln(frac{-q^2}{Am_e^2})},$$where $alpha^{-1} approx 137$, $A=exp(5/3)$, and...

Time reversal of scalar Bloch states

There's a well-known result about time reversal symmetry in crystals that's important when studying the physics of topological insulators, but I am having trouble proving it. I'll start with notation....

Are objects that fall into a black hole *always* silhoutted against the Hawking radiation coming out?

There are many questions on this site about whether you can really fall into a black hole - some seem to say clearly yes, some say clearly no....

What does the metric condition $nabla_rho g_{munu}=0$ in General Relativity intuitively mean for an observer measuring distances?

In General Relativity, the following condition hold: $nabla_rho g_{munu}=0$, where $g_{munu}$ is the metric of spacetime which has to do with measuring distances and angles and $nabla$ is the covariant...

Schrodinger equation subject to boundary condition implies quantization

I am in Section 2.4 of Sakurai's Modern QM, 3rd Ed. We have just deduced the time independent Schrodinger equation for energy eigenstates $u_k(vec x)$ having eigenvalue ...

How does magnetic hysteresis (ie. the B-H curve) transform the input-output of a guitar pickup or speaker?

I understand that magnetically dependent equipment like a guitar pickup or speaker are affected by magnetic hysteresis. Here is an article discussing the effect on speakers for...

Vector potential field for a hypothetical magnetic monopole

This is a mathemetical question with perhaps a physical interpretation. I would like to solve the equation:$$ vec{nabla} times vec{A} = frac{1}{r^2} hat{r} tag{1}$$ using spherical...
