Modeling Principles Almost all, if not all, applied science is based on the idea of a model. There are problems in the real world, and we would like to create a theory to solve such problems. One of the pillars or the main foundation of quantitative modeling is its effectiveness. But how can a model be effective? By demonstrating that it is simple, reproducible, and applicable in other areas of knowledge.

The Masamune-Bergman reaction[cite]10.1039/C29710001516[/cite],[cite]10.1021/ja00757a071[/cite] is an example of  a highly unusual class of chemical mechanism[cite]10.1021/cr4000682[/cite] involving the presumed formation of the biradical species shown as Int1 below by cyclisation of a cycloenediyne reactant. Such a species is  so reactive that it will be quickly trapped, as for example by dihydrobenzene to form

A video of Panoramax in action. Starting out with a map view which has small orange lines for where images are available. Then going into the actual 360 degree images and moving around. Above: a video showcasing the panoramax viewer, with a map to see where (most [1] ) images are, and the 360º views.

Given recent developments in the long-running hunt for dark matter and the difficulty interpreting what this means, it seems like a good juncture to re-up* this: The history of science is a decision tree. Vertices appear where we must take one or another branching. Sometimes, we take the wrong road for the right reasons. A good example is the geocentric vs. heliocentric cosmology.

Retomando lo dicho en la entrada anterior, la concepción alfonsí de la autoría parece haber influenciado las afirmaciones de J. E. Nieremberg sobre el Lucidario . A pesar de lo que sostuvo en el primer folio de su traducción latina, el Elucidarium , el jesuita defendió en Obras y días (1629) la autoría grupal del Lucidario , reconociendo que aunque Sancho IV fue su autor , en su escritura participaron
