Thank you for questions and links. I hope I could find time to look the references to consider explanation. I learned in the conference that also radio waves from space affect the distribution of molecular weights of DNAs so that mere noise cannot be in question and there must be a mechanism in which radio waves affect this distribution. <BR/><BR/>The biological Gaussian Mersennes are really fascinating and I would hope to discover more concrete ideas about their role.<BR/><BR/>The extension of notion of Mersenne prime to quaternions and octonions seems plausible. Gaussian Mersennes are certainly excellent candidates since the norm squared is prime. One should find whether they remain primes in quaternionic context or decompose to a product of more elementary units. <BR/><BR/>With Best Regards,<BR/><BR/>Matti PitkanenMatti Pitkänenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13512912323574611883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10614348.post-1163875035912931482006-11-18T10:37:00.000-08:002006-11-18T10:37:00.000-08:00Dear Sir,your findings about Mersennes and Gaussia...Dear Sir,<BR/>your findings about Mersennes and Gaussian Mersennes are very amusing.<BR/><BR/>I would like to pose two questions to you:<BR/><BR/>1) It would be interesting to extend the notion of Mersenne primes<BR/>to quaternions and octonions: perhaps also in these fields<BR/>one can find correspondences to meaningful physical hierarchies.<BR/><BR/>2) Joël Sternheimer, French physicist, claims that<BR/>sound waves can influence the protein synthesis in living organisms.<BR/>(As a former musician, he was surprised to find that the distribution<BR/>of the mass of particles appear commensurate with frequencies (notes)<BR/>of the musical "tempered scale". citation from http://www.trufax.org/leonline.html)<BR/>Two references:<BR/>http://www.bekkoame.ne.jp/~dr.fuk/InterNonlocF.html<BR/>http://www.bekkoame.ne.jp/~dr.fuk/IndexE.html<BR/><BR/>For the little I've read,<BR/>it is my feeling that TGD could give<BR/>to this interesting phenomenon<BR/>an original theoretical framework.<BR/><BR/>Thank you and best regards,<BR/>Fabrizio Vassallo,<BR/>PisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10614348.post-1161798668000177922006-10-25T10:51:00.000-07:002006-10-25T10:51:00.000-07:0010 25 06Matti:Heh this is interesting.
