چکیده
The Mind-Body Problem, which constitutes the starting point for a large part of the speculations about consciousness and conscious experience, can be re-stated in an equivalent way, using the ‘brain duplication’ argument described in this paper. If we assume that consciousness follows from a peculiar organization of physical matter and energy, namely that it does not transcend physical reality, then the brain duplication argument gives a possible interesting physical characterization of the mind: namely, a sort of extensive interdependence of the brain with the whole surrounding physical world in giving rise

An explicit expression for the numbers A(n, r; 3) describing the refined 3-enumeration of alternating sign matrices is given. The derivation is based on the recent results of Stroganov for the corresponding generating function. As a result, A(n, r; 3)'s are represented as 1-fold sums which can also be written in terms of terminating 4 F 3 series of argument 1/4.

A relation connecting the rest mass and separation of events in space-time continuum is suggested and the idea of Compton scattering is used as a method for the determination of rest mass. An experiment involving collision of photons resulting in creation of rest mass is discussed theoretically in order to illustrate the connection formula .
