No googling, wiki, youtube search for answers.
I have tried to give a balance between difficult and easier questions this week.
As usual, there is one QI-style question [where the answer is not what most people think] and one is "tricky" [but not impossible like the infamous "tree question"].
The White Room Thursday Quizz is open to all members.
I hope new members, who have recently joined the Community, and members who have not taken part before, will join the "regulars" with this week`s quiz.
Please feel free to post any comments on the questions - but not the answers - on this thread.
If you have any questions about the quiz, please ask and I will reply here.
Thank you everyone for your interest and for making the quiz so popular.
I hope everyone enjoys this week`s White Room Thursday Quiz.

Why would I know? Didn't do physics and doubt it had anything to do with my profession.
I won't be breaking the rules either...so off you go with your silver thinker

Tough looking list @Mi-Amigo ! 
I have some guesses in mind although don't think I actually know any. I will be off tomorrow and leaving @Martin-O2 manning the fort for 2 days so unfortunately can't take part this time either. I can think of my guesses unofficially and see on Monday what the results were, and whether I'd gotten anything right.
Have fun guys!
