My name is Tamás Gál, I am a physicist and working on my PhD at the Friedrich-Alexander-University of Erlangen. I currently develop trigger algorithms for the future neutrino telescope ORCA which is the phase one project of the KM3NeT neutrino detector. In addition to that, I work as a freelancer graphic designer and Mac/iOS developer.

comment Does a guitar sound different in zero (or micro) gravity?
I like your answer, but the last sentence saying "…moving the string from vacuum to the Earth's gravitational field…" hurts very badly. Theoretically you can't leave the Earths gravitational field at all. You mean, going back from free fall…
comment Why Won't a Tight Cable Ever Be Fully Straight?
See my example, I hope it's more clear now ; )

Upload it somewhere and add a link.
comment Is period of rotation relative?
But that doesn't mean, that the pulsar is rotating 0.15 slower in the observers space-time. Also the time dilation of a particle in the pulsars system changes periodically, since it's relative speed is not constant compared to the observer (going back and forth). That's basically the same effect when you observe a rotating galaxy and see a red shift on the one side and a blue one on the opposite side.
