Speculations

Pseudoscientific or speculatory threads belong here.

Speculations Forum Rules

The Speculations forum is provided for those who like to hypothesize new ideas in science. To enrich our discussions above the level of Wild Ass Guesswork (WAG) and give as much meaning as possible to such speculations, we do have some special rules to follow:

  1. Speculations must be backed up by evidence or some sort of proof. If your speculation is untestable, or you don't give us evidence (or a prediction that is testable), your thread will be moved to the Trash Can. If you expect any scientific input, you need to provide a case that science can measure.
  2. Be civil. As wrong as someone might be, there is no reason to insult them, and there's no reason to get angry if someone points out the flaws in your theory, either.
  3. Keep it in the Speculations forum. Don't try to use your pet theory to answer questions in the mainstream science forums, and don't hijack other threads to advertise your new theory.

The movement of a thread into (or out of) Speculations is ultimately at the discretion of moderators, and will be determined on a case by case basis.

    I am currently working on a theory for the coefficient of lift. Here is what I have so far: CL=Δp/q Where Δp is the change in pressure between the top and bottom of the airfoil, and q is the dynamic pressure; q=1/2ρv2 This is because of the following: The force of lift would also be equal to AΔp, since the force of lift depends on the change in pressure between the wings and the cross sectional area. Because the force of lift is qACL, then we can write the coefficient of lift as AΔp/qA, which simplifies to Δp/q. Now, I have to find out the value of Δp. What do you think so far?

  6. outbreeding depression refers to cases where offspring from crosses between two different different populations have a lower level of fitness than offspring from crosses between individuals from the same population. One of the ways that outbreeding depression can occur is by the breakdown of biochemical or physiological compatibilities between genes in the different breeding populations. Within local, isolated breeding populations, alleles are selected for their positive, overall effects in complementary combination with other specific alleles. Due to nonadditive gene action, the same genes may have rather different effects in different genetic backgrounds--hence, the…

    I believe that gravity is a push force caused by neutrinos. At the point of the big bang there would of been three fundamental particles that would cause this. Many other particles doing other stuff. Particle one. Neutrino. ( can travel through matter with little loss of energy ) Particle two. (probably hydrogen?) Neutrinos interact weakly with. Particle three. Neutrinos interact completely with and can not pass through. At the point of big bag there would have been trillions of neutrinos traveling through every square centimeter (in every direction )of space every second . Any fundamental particle unable to let them pass through would have t…

    I recently thought of this and I admit it is underdeveloped. I thought it might be worth sharing. Criticism is welcome. My idea is that the universe is the result of a SINGLE particle moving at a high/infinite velocity, so that it occupies all space at the same time, creating the illusion of reality.

    IF the material universe was described by the various algorithms of maths within the confinement of the singularity, and the release (big bang) of this information was permitted with the creation of space by the dimensions, what if any shape of existing space would be discernible by an extrapolation how of these dimensions were expressed? If the dimensions were the first information expressed outside the singularity, it seems logical that they were expressed in a particular order of simpler to more complex. That order being: First the X axis, or the first appearance of a line of (theoretical) primordial energy with an intersection at the singularity, then the second be…

    Do two stationary magnets, opposing or attracting, generate an electrical reaction at the field intersection? It wouldn't need to be a strong magnet to test this. Assuming yes Could a conductive filament of a certain design, magnetic property, element, alloy or combination convert it into a current? Would the current produced be a factor of the kinetic potential, magnetic field strength, nither or both?

    My theory is that the multiverse is moving faster than light, and its pulling all of the other universes with it to also move faster than light, but not nearly as fast as it self, so no universe within the multiverse can ever expand past the multiverse. If we had an object that was indestructible by relative physics, something that couldn't be destroyed, would we be able to tear a hole in space that could let us into the multiverse & travel faster than light. The multiverse is expanding, this expansion causes our universe to also expand, our universe is expanding faster than the speed of light. The multiverse is expanding faster than our universe, if you are able t…

  15. Basis for how to build a "free energy" "overunity" motor-generator? I haven't checked every part, but I think this works as a basis for a self-running motor-generator. Electromagnets/coils/solenoids/inductors with different strengths as the magnets/electromagnets they pull defy the Lenz-law-following-Newton's-third-law-and-following-the-Law-of-Conservation-of-Energy. One line of wire powered by x watts makes y magnetism, enough to move a compass. But a coil of wire (solenoid/inductor/electromagnet/coil) of 100 or so turns makes enough magnetism to move a motor armature or a ceramic two-inch-by-one-inch-half-inch-deep magnet, while still using abou…

  16. A new experiment published in 2012 had shown that 4Be12 has a structure impossible to be explained from the principles of current Nuclear Physics: End of the magic: Shell model for beryllium isotopes invalidated By considering the structure proposed by Dr. Wilfried Nörtershäuse it's impossible to explain the null magnetic moment for the nucleus 4Be12. Indeed, look at to the structure proposed: The neutrons n-1 and n-2 have an orbit radius longer than the orbit radius of the neutrons n-3 and n-4 , and therefore the g-factor for n-1 and n-2 is different of the g-factor for n-3 and n-4. Therefore the structure proposed by Dr. Wilfried Nörtershäuse is incompatible with t…

    This theory will certainly require the reader to think differently. It will also stretch the normal perception of time and size. I am putting this forward in the hopes that greater minds than myself will be able to advance the discussion – to one end or another. Abstract Theory: The Living Universe – A Call for the Merging of the Fields of Astronomy and Biology By: Christopher Wingfield This theory first began to take shape as I attempted to visualize an atom in my mind. As I thought about the seemingly endless power and light of a nucleus, the only image that kept re-occurring to me was that of our sun. I took it one step further, and I started to imagine the sun as if…

    According to the current nuclear models, the even-even nuclei must have two sort of shapes: A- Spherical shape – when the quantity of prótons Z is the same of the quantity of neutrons N, Z=N. B- Elispoidal shape – when Z << N . But experiments have shown that some even-even nuclei with Z<< N are pear shaped. Then, how to justify it? After all, they would have to have an ellipsoidal shape. In 2013 the Professor Peter Butler of the University of Liverpool had proposed that nucleons (prótons and neutrons) are distributed within the nuclei around a z-axis. So, in order to justify why some even-even with Z<<N (as for instance 88Ra224) have pear shape, he…

  20. GOOD BRAIN EXERCISE: This is first draft of idea it is Long and enjoy...share I completely agree with everyone. If you break everything down to electro/magnetic energy then we can solve pretty much everyone's question above. Keep it simple and define energy with a plus (+) or minus (-) and have opposite signs attract like a magnet. Then we will imagine an infinite number of Cube stacked sided to side top to bottom and back to front Like xyz coordinates but no definition is needed. This is suppose to be three dimensional but for explanation sake I will keep it 2d. So with this setup we would apply a single point of energy which would radiate a positive to a negativ…

    Hi everybody, I have been doing research on "analogy of fluid mediums and sub-atomic particles" for a long time. In this context, I examined the behavior of super fluid mediums and vortex, and I compared the behavior of subatomic particles. As a result of my research, I saw an immense analogy between them. Besides, Einstein was thinking, fields could intensify at a certain point, through a kind of knotting. and knot can behave like a particle. Briefly, the particles can be obtained from fields. This knots are called as soliton. I supposed the fields of Einstein as super fluid medium. And knotted field as vortex. I got very interesting results. I noticed that fluid med…
