... 14) The first strong candidate for a black hole was Cygnus X-1. It was discovered in 1964 by an xray detector on a rocket. In 1975 Steven Hawking bet Kip Thorne that it was not a black hole and he conceded the bet in the 1990’s when he became 95% certain. Let’s examine the evidence. Orbital studies ...

... • The Casimir Effect – Two small neutral conducting plates placed ~ 1 micrometer apart in a vacuum exert an attractive force between them • “virtual photons” • ~10-7 N (1 kg = 10 N) • Small, but measureable • One of the rare situations where quantum effects have large-scale observable consequences ...
