à propos de la beauté dans la physique et la nature.
The scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, and he delights in it because it is beautiful. If nature were not beautiful, it would not be worth knowing, and if nature were not worth knowing, life would not be worth living. Of course, I do not here speak of that beauty which strikes the senses, the beauty of qualities and appearances; not that I undervalue such beauty, far from it, but it has nothing to do with science; I mean that profounder beauty which comes from the harmonious order of the parts and which a pure intelligence can grasp. This it is which gives body, a structure so to speak, to the iridescent appearances which flatter our senses, and without this support the beauty of these fugitive dreams would be only imperfect, because it would be vague and always fleeting. Jules Henri Poincare
If a poet sees beauty in a rainbow ... so does the physicist in the laws governing its manifestation. The surface beauty of the rainbow ... is appreciated by all men: it is given. But the buried beauty, uncovered by the industrious researches of the physicist, is understood only by the scientifically literate. It is acquired: education is essential. H. E. Huntley: The Divine Proportion
You may object that by speaking of simplicity and beauty I am introducing aesthetic criteria of truth, and I frankly admit that I am strongly attracted by the simplicity and beauty of the mathematical schemes which nature presents us. You must have felt this too: the almost frightening simplicity and wholeness of the relationship, which nature suddenly spreads out before us. Heisenberg: communication to Einstein
When I'm working on a problem, I never think about beauty. I think only how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong. Richard Buckminster Fuller
Accuracy is, in every case, advantageous to beauty, and just reasoning to delicate sentiment. In vain would we exalt one by depreciating the other. David Hume: An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. - -Albert Einstein
The great tragedy of science: the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact. Thomas Huxley
Sweet is the lore which Nature brings; Our meddling intellect Mis-shapes the beauteous form of things:- We murder to dissect. Enough of Science... William Wordsworth: The Tables Turned - An Evening upon the Same Subject
Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it. Confucius

, ça me permet de comparer les idées et les théorie dans le domaine de la physique théorique. Une théorie sèche comme ça sans explication et sans controverse reste à mon avis comme isolée, l'enrichissement par des débats même de la thèse et l'antithèse permet aux autres de prendre une position. Bien que le domaine m'est très éloigné, je trouve passionnant ce que vous écrivez tous les deux, je continue à m'enrichir sur ce genre de sujets.
et pouyrquoi pas le carbone qui est aussi tétravalent et aussi utuilisé dans la technologie de l'électronique, on sait bien que le germanium et le silicium sont très utilisés (après dopage avec des impuretes) comme semiconducteurs dans les transitors et les diodes mais à vouloir "chasser" des interactions avec les wimps, je ne vois encore comment...que l'on m'éclaire
