I thought the holy grail of physics was the equation that linked all forces together. What was it called?

Nice. Thanks for the post.

Maybe Ark of the Covenant.

Would it not be a scream if India at one stroke impoverished the Muslim world forever.

Try it with a little nutmeg sprinkled on top. It doesn't really add much to the flavor, but it looks pretty.

I thought that the "holy grail" was unified field theory. I regard simple fusion as the "philosophers' stone".

Let us put this in "hope it is true category."

'One of his more remarkable inventions is a rifle that can be adjusted so its user fires bullets at varying speeds. The US government has shown great interest in the project because such a non-lethal weapon can be used effectively for peace-keeping, riot-control, and school security.'

Wouldn't that be cool?

Holy Grail of Physics?

We've already got one.

Calling all physicists... I'm having trouble understanding how, even theoretically, bubbles induced by ultrasound could create such temperatures or pressures on this scale. Still seems to me spittin' in the wind to overcome the repulsive force of the nucleus. Unless these bubbles collapse near lightspeed, where is the energy coming from?

"Of course Mother Nature does throw googlies at us, but we believe it can be scaled and are optimistically cautious,..."

Hey, who ran this thing thru babel fish?

Sounds like sonoluminescence, ho hum.

Known for years; nobody can figure out how to extract useful energy from it.

This article and the replies are very interesting and informative. Thank you, all.

Just a hunch, but Taleyarkhan probably got his masters from the University of North Carolina.
