What exactly is the God particle?

If you are a interested in science fiction series or movies. You should have heard of it - God Particle. I heard of it in famous web series Dark. So, what is it exactly ? You are going to see it. God Particle is actually Higgs Boson. It is a elementary particle produced by Quantum excitation of the Higgs fields. It is named after Peter Higgs, who along with other scientist proposed the Higgs mechanism. This theory was their to explain why particle have mass. Well the name God Particle was not liked by many scientist even including Peter Higgs.

God Particle

Higgs field is a scalar tachyonic field. It does not transform under Lorentz transformation and it is also imaginary particle. While tachyon are purely hypothetical concepts. Under no circumstances do any excitations ever propagate faster than light in such theories – the presence or absence of a tachyonic mass has no effect whatsoever on the maximum velocity of signals and there is no violation of causality Instead of faster-than-light particles, the imaginary mass creates an instability: Any configuration in which one or more field excitations are tachyonic must spontaneously decay, and the resulting configuration contains no physical tachyons. This process is known as tachyon condensation, and is now believed to be the explanation for how the Higgs mechanism itself arises in nature, and therefore the reason behind electroweak symmetry breaking.

The Amazing Vantablack Material...!!

Vantablack is a material developed by Surrey NanoSystems in the United Kingdom and is one of the darkest substances known, absorbing up to 99.96% of visible light (at 663 nm if the light is perpendicular to the material).The name is a compound of the acronym VANTA (vertically aligned carbon nanotube arrays) and the color black. Vantablack is not actually a color pigment or a paint, but a coating of carbon nanotubes. These have the property of absorbing incident light almost completely. Against a deep black background, objects coated in Vantablack material seem to disappear, as the perception of spatial depth is lost. This is because the human eye perceives shapes coated in Vantablack to be two-dimensional. IUPAC Name is Activated carbon high density skeleton. Other names are Multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), Vantablack S-VIS and Vantablack S-IR. It is insoluble in water. When light strikes Vantablack, instead of bouncing off, it becomes trapped and is continually deflected amo...

NVIDIA Tesla V100 - First Tensor Core GPU

8x NVIDIA Tesla V100 32GB Server As we all know NVIDIA processor are so famous now a days. It give a perfect gaming performance and people used it worldwide. The thing is that it is not only use in personal computer but also at data center, where so many super computer are present for providing services. So, NVIDIA Tesla V100 is a first tensor core GPU. It is especially built to focus on AI, High Performance Computing ( HPC ) and graphics. It is powered by NVIDIA Volta Architecture. It comes with configuration 16 and 32GB and have a performance up to 100 CPUs in single GPU. A single server node with V100 GPUs can replace 60 CPUs nodes. DATA CENTER GPUs Image © NVIDIA NVIDIA V100 for NVLINK Performance with NVIDIA GPU Boost for double precision is 7.8 teraflops and single precision is 15.7 teraflops. Deep learning performance boost is 125 teraflops. Interconnect bandwidth with bidirectional is 300 GB/s. It have memory capacity of 32/16 GB HBM2 with bandwidth 900GB/s. I...

Operating System as Extended machine and Resource manager

Operating system is software that runs in kernel mode even that is not always true. Part of the problem is that operating system perform two essential unrelated function. We can say that operating system is system software that manages computer hardware, software resources, and provide common services for computer program. The Operating System as an Extended machine The architecture of most computers at the machine language level is not developed and difficult to program, especially for input/output. To make this point more concrete, consider modern SATA hard disks used on most computers. Only the insane the programmer would try to mess with hard disks at the hardware level. Therefore disk driver - a piece of software deals with hardware and provide interface to read and write disks blocks. Operating System contain many drivers for control input/output device. Macintosh hardware are complicated. Real processors, memories, disks, and other devices are very complicated and it...
