Re: Bosons As String Bends Cylinder?Posted by moorglade on July 22, 2002 at 15:11:18: In Reply to: Re: Bosons As String Bends Cylinder? posted by sol on July 18, 2002 at 17:09:14: Sol, I had this notion some time ago, and your questions need a deep and clear reponse, as usual :) but it is better for simplistic reasons that you associate the connection between a cylinder and the sphere in this fashion, so here goes! Take a cylinder as a part of a opened out torus, this has open ends, ok now fill this cylinder with substance? as a good anology take a drinking straw(open torus/cylinder),now fill with substance such as a liquid, you can do this quite easily, placing your tounge over one end as you draw water from a glass through straw :) Now blow slightly through the straw, and out of the cylinder pops a sphere in the form of a bubble. Take the idea into simplistic realms, take a bubble wand the type used by children, blow and the wand creats bubbles!SPHERE'S. only the wand is a closed cylinder (o)such but from another dimension its actually a cylinder of sorts, a tube is an elongated torus, or compress a tube and you get a torus. place a diaphram over the end of tubes and if you push from one end, the other end responds by inflating! so, sphere's are related torus, in a phase transition, place any tube into a sphere and you will create a torus, think of the parchments of ancient days where a ring(torus) was often used to keep scrolls wrapped up,hope this doesnt detract to much :)PV
