  • Stellivore Extraterrestrials? Binary Stars As Living Systems.” Acta Astronautica 128: 251–56
    Vidal, C. 2016. “Stellivore Extraterrestrials? Binary Stars as Living Systems.” Acta Astronautica 128: 251–56. doi:10.1016/j.actaastro.2016.06.038.1 Stellivore Extraterrestrials? Binary Stars as Living Systems Clément Vidal Center Leo Apostel Evolution, Complexity and Cognition research group Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Free University of Brussels) Krijgskundestraat 33, 1160 Brussels, Belgium Phone +32-2-640 67 37 | Fax +32-2-6440744 http://www.clemvidal.com c [email protected] Abstract: We lack signs of extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI) despite decades of observation in the whole electromagnetic spectrum. Could evidence be buried in existing data? To recognize ETI, we first propose criteria discerning life from non-life based on thermodynamics and living systems theory. Then we extrapolate civilizational development to both external and internal growth. Taken together, these two trends lead to an argument that some existing binary stars might actually be ETI. Since these hypothetical beings feed actively on stars, we call them “stellivores”. We present an independent thermodynamic argument for their existence, with a metabolic interpretation of interacting binary stars. The jury is still out, but the hypothesis is testable with existing astrophysical data. Keywords: SETI, Dysonian SETI, Astrobiology, High energy astrophysics, High energy astrobiology, Living systems theory, Stars: binaries: general, Stellivore 1 - Introduction In 1960, Freeman Dyson proposed to search for extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI) by looking for infrared radiation emitted by an artificial biosphere covering a star (Dyson 1960). Unfortunately, despite some searches, the results are negative (Jugaku, Noguchi, and Nishimura 1995; Carrigan Jr 2009; Wright et al. 2014). We thus lack proof or even indication of ETI, a fundamental gap in our knowledge of the universe.

  • Naval Engineering and Labor Specialization During the Industrial Revolution
    Naval Engineering and Labor Specialization during the Industrial Revolution Darrell J. Glaser Department of Economics United States Naval Academy [email protected] Ahmed S. Rahman Department of Economics United States Naval Academy [email protected] January 2012 1 Abstract This paper explores the roles of capital- and technology-skill complementarities in labor allocation decisions within the U.S. Navy. During the latter 19th century the officer corps was highly specialized, and was split between groups of line and staff officers. This was also a time of dramatic technological changes which affected nearly every facet of naval opera- tions. Specifically, naval technological developments tended to be \engineering-biased," in that they raised the relative importance of engineer-oriented skills. This created a dilemma for the Navy, as it navigated the balance between the benefits of a specialized workforce implementing increasingly complex technologies with rising communication and coordina- tion costs. We first document the extent of capital- and technology-skill complementarities within the navy which fostered greater labor specialization. We then show how the Navy vitiated the specialized human capital of officers by blending the corps. The study offers in- sights into how an industry undergoing wrenching technological changes managed its labor and human capital allocation to help the U.S. become a world class naval power. • Keywords: skilled-labor complementarity, skill-replacing and skill-using technology, labor allocation • JEL Codes: J2, J7, N3, N7, O3 2 1 Introduction This paper explores the effects of capital- and technology-skill complementarities in the U.S. Navy. Specifically, we explore how such complementarities influenced task specialization and labor allocation during the latter 19th and early 20th centuries.

  • Explaining the Mysterious Connection Between Physics and Mathematics by Reconciling the Unified Field and Anthropic Principle
    Title - Explaining The Mysterious Connection Between Physics and Mathematics By Reconciling the Unified Field and Anthropic Principle Author – Rodney Bartlett Abstract – This is a copy of my entry in the latest essay contest conducted by the Foundational Questions Institute (FQXi). That contest restricts me to 25,000 characters, so I’ve added Notes to the end of the essay (FQXi allows the addition of notes but limits their length to much less than what I want to say). Other excellent essays in FQXi’s current contest will inform readers about the role of Fibonacci numbers and the Golden Ratio in nature [14], as well as referring to the book “Our Mathematical Universe” [9] and the use of pi in a science-fiction book by astronomer Carl Sagan to show that “the universe was made on purpose” [15]. Rather than merely repeat the other essays’ wisdom, I’ll take a different approach. I hope my approach will be novel and original, but only time will reveal where it may lead. I want to show that you can combine the topology (rubber- sheet geometry), binary digits and E=mc^2 of maths with the matter, energy and forces of physics to 1) explain dark energy and dark matter, 2) open up the whole universe and all time to human exploration and creation, 3) show that there’s an infinite, eternal cosmos (not a multiverse) beyond our observable universe, 4) unify gravitation with electromagnetism, the other fundamental forces, and the physical universe; and 5) reconcile the anthropic principle with the unified theories of physics (via a strong version of that principle - that a direct link exists between human existence and the actual form of the laws of nature).

  • 8625 Showcase FINAL
    The Wealth of a Nation An Evaluation of Engineering Research in the United Kingdom Preface THIS REPORT of the second International Review of Engineering comes at a time when there is quickening appreciation of the importance of innovation to economies and societies around the world, for which engineering research is of fundamental importance. The rationale for such a review is clear; the UK needs to know how it is doing in engineering research and who better to ask than 26 of our most eminent peers in academia and industry from other countries. The findings should have value not only to the research community itself but also to those concerned with the direction of policy in Government, industry and beyond. The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and the Royal Academy of Engineering have been working in close partnership for more than a year in the planning and preparation of this review. This report, the culmination of these activities, is entirely the work of the International Review Panel. We would like to thank our colleagues on the Steering Group and staff in both our organisations for helping us to set the framework for the review in such a way that the panel was able to do its work so effectively. To the International Panel itself we are truly grateful – their expertise, breadth of vision, enthusiasm and capacity for sheer hard work impressed all those who came in contact with them. To Professor Tom Everhart, President Emeritus of Caltech and chairman of the International Review Panel, we are hugely indebted; his authority and leadership were vital to both the review and the completion of this report.

  • Starry Messages: Searching for Signatures of Interstellar Archaeology
    FERMILAB-PUB-09-607-AD Starry Messages: Searching for Signatures of Interstellar Archaeology Richard A. Carrigan, Jr., Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory*, Batavia, IL 60510, USA [email protected] 630-840-8755 Summary Searching for signatures of cosmic-scale archaeological artifacts such as Dyson spheres or Kardashev civilizations is an interesting alternative to conventional SETI. Uncovering such an artifact does not require the intentional transmission of a signal on the part of the original civilization. This type of search is called interstellar archaeology or sometimes cosmic archaeology. The detection of intelligence elsewhere in the Universe with interstellar archaeology or SETI would have broad implications for science. For example, the constraints of the anthropic principle would have to be loosened if a different type of intelligence was discovered elsewhere. A variety of interstellar archaeology signatures are discussed including non-natural planetary atmospheric constituents, stellar doping with isotopes of nuclear wastes, Dyson spheres, as well as signatures of stellar and galactic-scale engineering. The concept of a Fermi bubble due to interstellar migration is introduced in the discussion of galactic signatures. These potential interstellar archaeological signatures are classified using the Kardashev scale. A modified Drake equation is used to evaluate the relative challenges of finding various sources. With few exceptions interstellar archaeological signatures are clouded and beyond current technological capabilities. However SETI for so- called cultural transmissions and planetary atmosphere signatures are within reach. Keywords: Interstellar archaeology, Dyson spheres, Kardashev scale, SETI, Drake equation ACKNOWLEDGEMENT *Operated by the Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DE-AC02-07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy.

  • The Cyberphysics of Tomorrow's World
    THE CYBERPHYSICS OF TOMORROW'S WORLD Author - Rodney Bartlett ABSTRACT - This article would appeal to people interested in new ideas in sciences like physics, astronomy and mathematics that are not presented in a formal manner. Biologists would also find the paragraphs about evolution interesting. I was afraid they'd think my ideas were a bit "out there". But I sent a short email about them last year to a London biologist who wrote an article for the journal Nature. She replied that it was "very interesting". The world is fascinated by electronics. Computer scientists, as well as computer buyers, would be intrigued by the fundamental role given to human electronics in creation of the universe. This obviously can only be done if time travel to the past is possible. I explain in scientific terms how it could be done (the world is also fascinated by the prospect of time travel). My ideas on trips through time grew from the related topic of interstellar, and even intergalactic, travel (and those ideas are inspired by an electrical- engineering experiment at Yale University in 2009). After the ideas on time travel came the realization that this technology could be used to totally eliminate the problems of muscle and bone weakness, radiation exposure etc associated with a lengthy journey to Mars. The exquisitely ordered cosmos proposed would have great appeal to religion and philosophy. Dealing as it does with time that does not exclusively operate in a straight line, the book could not only present a new view of evolution (present theory assumes time is always a straight line from past to future).
