Ballentine's proof of (one half of) Stone's theorem
Reading Ballentine's "Quantum Mechanics; A Modern Development" I got stuck on his really short proof of what I think is Stone's theorem. On page 65 (paperback, reprint of 2008) he writes about about a …

Gravitational potential inside a long but finite cylinder
Suppose a cylinder of length $\ell$, radius $R$ with a bore hole through its long axis of radius $r$. How can the gravitational potential (not the gravitational field) inside the cylinder be derived.

Gravitational potential inside a long but finite cylinder
First I was afraid that I would not find solutions to the integrals but sagemath.org came to the rescue, so here is my humble attempt. (Sorry for the ugly artwork.)
Let the cylinder have length $L$ …

Infinite plane gravity: what is "mass density per unit area"?
Recently I learned that the gravity of an infinity plane is independent of the distance from that plane. In fact it is
$$g = 2\pi G \sigma$$
where $\sigma$ is "the mass density of the plane per unit …
