How to visualise the number of tradjectories thru a point.
This shows how hopelessly few we can imagine but gives an idea☺.
So imagine a point ..lets say a full stop but as you know a point is infinitely small and perhaps beyong actual comptemplation...
So take our full stop as being the center of a sphere say 100 billion light years diameter ...a near approximation to the size of the observable universe but such a choice in merely coincidental☺.
So on the sphere draw a full stop and another on the exact opposite of our sphere...draw a line to connect the two..you have one trajectory...keep it straight but remember it could wander all over.
Now add another full stop say a full stop width away from the first..and another opposite so you can draw another line..now we have two trajectories...continue until the sphere is covered by full stops joining via tradjectory to one on the opposite side of the sphere...then look at how many tradjectories past thru that central full stop (point)...now also realise that we can put millions of points inside each dot and multiply the number of trajectories beyond human comprehension...of course all our tradjectories will pass thru our central full stop or point...cool☺
Now imagine that along each and every one of these geometrical infinite number of trajectories travels a nutrino from some distant part of the Universe...or if you want to argue that could not be so select an acceptable percentage that would be there. ..still enough to be beyond human comprehension...and whatever percentage you select know they travel thru our central point...its must be that the energy at that and each and every point is potentially infinite...I often thought the way an atomic bomb worked was presenting a barrier to all this stuff coming from everywhere such that it could not pass thru easily as the result would be the stuff would be ripped apart fast..so I recon if you had some very dense material compresed and heated via a conventional explosion the interaction with potentially infinite energy at each point within the system would produce a nice blast...So although the thoughts as to how the bomb works I was pleased to see by doing what I though would go bang actually did..although obeying substantially different science☺.
I even thought the hot center of the Earth could be the result of nutrinos experiencing interactions...anyways these are the things I think about while waiting for exposures to accumulate☺.
