Twistor space

In mathematics and theoretical physics (especially twistor theory), twistor space is the complex vector space of solutions of the twistor equation . It was described in the 1960s by Roger Penrose and Malcolm MacCallum. According to Andrew Hodges, twistor space is useful for conceptualizing the way photons travel through space, using four complex numbers. He also posits that twistor space may aid in understanding the asymmetry of the weak nuclear force. (Wikipedia).

Michael Eastwood: Twistor theory for LQG

Twistor Theory was proposed in the late 1960s by Roger Penrose as a potential geometric unification of general relativity and quantum mechanics. During the past 50 years, there have been many mathematical advances and achievements in twistor theory. In physics, however, there are aspirati

https://philippelefloch.files.wordpress.com/2015/11/2015-ihp-rogerpenrose.pdf Abstract. Up until recently, the applications of twistor theory to general relativity have been rather limited, applicable mainly to special solutions of the Einstein equations and to complex solutions which are

Spinlaunch Throw Rockets into Space (with something which looks like Nikola Tesla turbine)!!!

The concept behind that system is simple. Essentially, SpinLaunch wants to get to orbit by using a large, vacuum-sealed chamber and a hypersonic tether to spin a spacecraft at a high enough velocity up to 5000 miles per hour to escape the atmosphere. That means no rocket, no rocket engines

What the HECK is Time?! (in Einstein’s Relativity)

In special and general relativity, we imagine time as just another dimension of space in something called "spacetime." Unfortunately, this picture leads to questions about determinism and free will. Is that really how it works? What does the concept of spacetime actually say about the univ

Abstract: Twistor spaces of K3 surfaces are non-Kähler compact complex manifolds which play a fundamental role in the moduli theory of K3 surfaces. They come equipped with a holomorphic submersion to the complex projective line which under the period map corresponds to a twistor line in th

Abstract: In the study of mixed twistor D-modules, an important issue is to relate mixed twistor D-modules with concrete objects in various problems. Although we know that there exist many mixed twistor D-modules by an abstract existence theorem and by the functoriality, it is not easy to
