Can the Helmholtz equation be applied for a system with multiple frequencies?

Currently I am working on a problem whereby I need to solve numerically the propagation of waves in water. My past experiences with this problem is to use the Helmholtz...

Helium in an old mylar balloon

As a sealed mylar foil balloon ages, it deflates. I assume that this is mostly due to the monoatomic helium escaping through the envelope material. (In much the same manner...

Renormalization theory in Peskin: why he consider massless limit first

In Peskin's book, he first tackled massless $phi^4$ theory, its renormalization, namely the Callan-Symanzic equation when m=0. And then he put the mass term in later and approach this...

How does radiation transfer of heat fit in with the Clausius statement of second law of thermodynamics?

The Clausius statement of the second law of thermodynamics says that heat flows from a hotter body to a colder body. Heat can flow in many different mechanisms. In the...

Normalisation of QCD Lagrangian

In QCD, and more generally in representations of $mathfrak{su}(N)$, there is a freedom to choose the normalisation of the generators,$$mathrm{Tr} , left[R(T^a) R(T^b)right] = T_R delta^{ab}.tag{1}...

What force does a floating object exert on the liquid it is floating on?

When something floats, it is due to the buoyant force from the liquid onto the object, but what force does the object exert in response down on the liquid? I...

Will current be induced in the conducting loop in this scenario?

The question is simple. We know induced emf in a conducting loop due to a changing flux is given by $$ E = -frac{dPhi}{dt} $$ My question is if...

Why $H$'s radial component in a solenoid filled with linear magnetic material is zero?

Why $H$'s radial component in a solenoid filled with linear magnetic material is zero? Unlike $B$ where we can use the Biot-Savart law to say that reversing the...

How to know if a spinor $Psileft(xright)$ is the ground state of the system?

Suppose we have time independent one-dimensional single particle Schrödinger-like equation$$-frac{d}{dx}left(Aleft(xright)frac{d}{dx}psileft(xright)right)+Vleft(xright)psileft(xright)=Epsileft(xright),$$where $Aleft(xright)$ is a positive function. We have guessed an eigenfunction $psi_{mathrm{guess}}left(xright)$ of energy $E_{mathrm{guess}}$, and...
