My appointment with Prof.Jayant Narlikar at IUCAA

Very late in writing this post,

To Know who is Prof. Narlikar check this

My second meet with Prof.Narlikar. The first meet was in Nagpur on 30th Jan 2010.

I was in Pune from 21st Nov - 26th Nov 2010 for some work at I2IT institute in Hinjewadi and for an appointment with Prof. Jayant Narlikar at his office in IUCAA,Pune University

I had an appointment with Prof.Narlikar on Friday,26th Nov 2010 at 12 noon. Prior to the appointment,I reached IUCAA by 1130hrs. At 1200hrs, I went to his cabin for the appointment specially focused on solving some of my theoretical questions with some doubts on my research work on "ROTATING BLACK HOLES"

The first question I asked was - "Whats the future of Dark Matter and Dark Energy?"

To the readers, Dark matter is an invisible matter found in the galaxies that has a key role in creation and evolution of galaxies as discovered by computer simulations of Galaxy formation

Dark energy is a form of energy which doesn't react with forms like electromagnetism so making it practically invisible in EM spectrum. Dark Energy is found to accelerate the universe at increasing rate.

The initial datas from WMAP satellite showed that Dark energy content in a newly formed Universe 13.7 billion years ago was more and now it has reduced.

Prof Narlikar answered that Dark matter is still a big question to solve and mathematical models keep fluctuating. He answered that according to him, amount of dark matter is constant in the universe and nothing can be said about its future. Even it has no relation with Dark energy

So one can't estimate anything about it.

Next question I asked was whether Gravitational singularity of Black hole having rotation can be avoided or not? ( Remember its the base of my ongoing research on "ROTATING BLACK HOLES TIME TRAVEL" )

Prof.Narlikar answered that process of finding black holes is still in progress but one has not found any Rotating black hole yet. for G.Singularity, its difficult to avoid it for the rotating black hole having its singularity in the form of a rotating disk. Tidal effects of black holes will break all the matter and it will ultimately fall in the singularity.

( I am still waiting for another answers from him on this aspect over a course of time)

NOTE- THE ABOVE CASE OF AVOIDING SINGULARITY IS FOR AN OBJECT WHICH HAS CROSSED THE EVENT HORIZON OF BLACK HOLE.

I asked more two questions on the formula E=Mc( square) and the STEADY STATE THEORY proposed by Hoyle-Goldi-Brown. Prof. Narlikar along with his PhD guid Sir Fred Hoyle had stated the H-N theory or Hoyle Narlikar theory which acts as a mathematical base of Steady state theory.

The 30 min appointment ended with him.I left for Pune airport to catch a flight back home that evening.

I will paste more clear and better images of this appointment later. This picture was taken by mobile camera so its not that clear

I am working on an article on "TACHYONS" or particles moving faster than light which will be published soon
