Unethical aspects of homeopathic dentistry
In the last year there has been a great deal of public debate about homeopathy, the system of alternative medicine whose main principles are that like cures like and that potency increases relative to dilution. The House of Commons Select Committee on Science and Technology concluded in November 2009 that there is no evidence base for homeopathy, and agreed with some academic commentators that homeopathy should not be funded by the NHS. While homeopathic doctors and hospitals are quite commonplace, some might be surprised to learn that there are also many homeopathic dentists practising in the UK. This paper examines the statements made by several organisations on behalf of homeopathic dentistry and suggests that they are not entirely ethical and may be in breach of various professional guidelines
Magnetospheric electron density measurements from upper hybrid resonance noise observed by IMP-6
A band of natural radio noise between the local electron plasma frequency and the upper hybrid resonance frequency is observed by the IMP-6 satellite. The band exists over a large range of geocentric radial distances extending from inside the plasmapause boundary to greater than 10 earth radii in the outer magnetosphere. The center frequency of the noise band decreases with increasing radial distance, and changes abruptly at the plasmapause boundary. The broadband electric field strength of this noise is very small, seldom exceeding 10 microvolts/meter, and probably could not be detected without using long electric antennas of IMP-6. It is believed that this noise is produced by incoherent Cerenkov emission from super-thermal electrons. In some cases a second very narrow noise band was observed at a frequency slightly above the second harmonic of the electron gyrofrequency

Schroedinger Wheeler-DeWitt Equation In Multidimensional Cosmology
We study multidimensional cosmology to obtain the wavefunction of the
universe using wormhole dominance proposal. Using a prescription for time we
obtain the Schroedinger-Wheeler-DeWitt equation without any reference to WD
equation and WKB ansatz for WD wavefunction. It is found that the
Hartle-Hawking or wormhole-dominated boundary conditions serve as a seed for
inflation as well as for Gaussian type ansatz to Schroedinger-Wheeler-DeWitt
equation.Comment: 10 Pages, LaTeX, no figur
