    Smile hello

    Hey everyone
    I'm an undergraduate (2nd year) in mechanical engineering at Imperial College London with an interest in theoretical physics.
    This site was a great find from a random google search..

    Welcome to TOE elrager,

    The difference between a mechanical engineer and a theoretical physicist is one's real and one aint.
    But it sure is fun to dream!

    The truth of everything is less than one inch,
    it is only equal and the lion is one.
    One is free when the door is opened,
    education has the key.

    heh i must admit they are quite polar opposites.
    my "interest" in theoretical physics is really rather shallow, i've read parts of papers on superstring or "M" theory, but a lot of the mathematics eludes me.
    my hope is once i've studied tensor algebra it might open it up a bit, but still i can enjoy the articles that are written more in basic terms

    Re: hello

    Welcome to the forum elranger. I hope you enjoy yourself here. I believe the string theory math is confusing to everyone, however, I do like the concept, of a one dimensional entity of Planck length size, as the essential building block of our universe.

    I'm looking forward to your posts.

    Best,

    Pat
