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.

  1. The observation of entanglement is only easily explainable via one or more hidden variables. Defining the observed slowing of an atom clock when speeding it up as proving the slowing of time is incorrect. If it is only the slowing of the clock then speeds in excess of c for the observed need for such variables outside the SM and thus GR & QM must be assumed possible, as a most probable to be investigated possibility. And what does science already know then? That c is max? That time slows down? Incorrect definitions. Science doesn't know that. Yes for the SM c = max, indeed. The SM is filled with former hidden variables i.e. former unicorns. You as does a l…

    I remember about 5 years ago i was reading a book on quantum physics on a holiday, it mentioned wave-particle duality, that light was a wave and a particle, but nothing could explain how it could be both at the same time. so i asked myself how it could be possible. I think i came up with a good theory, but my knowledge on physics and quantum physics is somewhat poor. i am good with chemistry, atoms, protons, electrons, neutrons etc, but when things get smaller, photons, quarks, mass and energy etc, my terminology gets a bit lost. anyway, i will give you my basic idea of how a particle can behave like a wave and particle, and you can laugh and shut me down, but it woul…

  4. Since I was 14, I found myself to be very interested in the science of attraction. Needless to say, that spark ignited the fuse, but by this point in my life, the fuse has died out. However, I have made a discovery. One discovery of mine was telepathy, and how it actually exists (you can't argue this with me, my mind is set, I've witnessed it many times). Well, taking it a step further, and applying it to my studies of attraction (mostly regarding NLProgramming and The Mystery Method, game theoretic ideas) I've experimented several times with telepathy and sexual attraction. Long story short, what I've done, and had positive results with, was literally having sex (or doin…

    Hi Everyone, I am an EE undergraduate student. Recently, my friend and I came up with the following idea: What if matters are created based on EM-Waves? We know that based on de Broglie's wavelength, a moving object has the following wave length: p = h/λ so for an rigid and stationary object, we would expect to have close to zero wave length. Then, we decided to flip the table and say that: Objects are created by high [average] frequency EM-Waves, and they are extremely-well localized wave packets. My friends and I then attempt to give consequence of such postulate: 1. Matters are created by em-waves thus with its frequency exponentially decaying around them; spac…

  11. Sleep and dream in a scientific view By Physicist Wolfhart Willimczik In the lexicon, one finds: "The dream is a kind of unconscious mental activity. Their biological function has not yet been fully understood." I could find also: During sleep, the information of the day is "processed". How exactly does that happen? This is a first attempt to explain it. We will understand how our brain is working if we succeed to build a computer with the same features - which is able to do the same processes as our brain – at least in some respect. Such comparison is scientifically allowable, because both have to follow the laws of nature, ergo run in the same pro…

  12. SuperExistence Unveiling the Mystery of Homeopathic Medicine ( An invention in the field of fundamental physics ) To know the hidden truth of Homeopathic Medicine, firstly we need to have good knowledge of the ‘SuperExistence’. ‘SuperExistence’ is another existence of all beings. Lack of appropriate word has caused to mark or name this unearthly existence– ‘SuperExistence’. This ‘SuperExistence’ identity is so subtle –unperceived –unfelt that many may think it –‘building castle in the air’. From fundamental particle to every element, – matter and energy have two different existences in its form. The formations of matter or element, components, quali…

    2012 has presented us a new system of remedy with a new medical science– that is ‘MahaPathy’. MahaPathy (briefly– MPathy) is a super excellent system of Alternative Medicine, like Homeopathy in some respects. Also it is very effective system for universal treatment. When traditional / current systems of medicines are unable to cure– curability of 'MahaPathy' has been proved astonishingly in suchlike some cases. Besides it, in the book of 'MahaPathy', there the mystery of Homeopathic medicine has been unveiled clearly. To know more about it, please go through Google search= MahaPathy. url deleted

    C=M+1, nonsense you may say. Galilean laws considered that if an object of mass, was to be, in the center of a nothing, as a single mass, then distance, direction ,size or speed could not be calculated. All these calculations are relative to mass. Without mass or a reference point there could be no calculation. So time is relative to the observer and the observers distance. A second to us, is relative to us, from our reference point. A different observer would have a different reference point from a nearer ,or further away planet from the sun. A different observer would have a perceived year, a year would be relative to them, and so would a mo…

    Today, about 14 billion light years following the Big Bang, the energy composition of the Universe is approximately the following: 4.5% Matter: 4% Atoms + .5% mostly-massless particles 23.5% Dark Matter 72% Dark Energy However, just 400 thousand years after the Big Bang, the makeup of the Universe was approximately the following: 37% Matter: 12% Atoms + 25% mostly-massless particles 63% Dark Matter 0% Dark Energy Notice that the proportion of Dark Energy has increased substantially over time and the proportions of dark matter and matter decreased. There also seems to be a generally constant proportion of about 6:1 for dark matter to atoms…

    Here's another quick essay: Time flows in one direction and it is associated with the concept of entropy because entropy also tends to flow in one direction. Entropy is a measure of disorder within a system - consider that at the beginning of the Universe, before the Big Bang, the Universe was in a state of perfect order. Therefore it had no entropy. Following the big bang however, the universe has been moving towards a state of disorder and increased entropy. The motion from order towards disorder implies the proliferation of randomness/equilibrium (i.e. the equal probability of finding a particle at any position within a system). In the end, the universe wi…

    *What do you guys think? How can I improve this essay? Thanks. In physical space, motion can be observed when matter moves between positions in space. It is trivial to measure and it is ultimately ruled by two forces of nature: electromagnetism and gravitation. The concept of motion is at the center of Einstein's Theory of Relativity, and motion has been found to produce a universal phenomenon called Time Dilation. Time dilation is the effect of slowing time by moving relatively quickly thru space. It is widely accepted that Time Dilation plays a minuscule role in our daily lives, because as human beings, we move too slowly to generate enough time dilatio…

    This is a series of thoughts that came to my mind after watching too much star trek, especially the episode about the two-dimensional beings in TNG. Please read and share your opinions. We exist in a universe that has three spatial dimensions. Because of this, we are able to perceive that portion of any object that occupy the same spatial dimensions that we occupy. An example would be the four dimensional Rubik's cube. The "cube" has a total of four axes, with two (for the need of a better word) faces on each, such that every face has a different color. It's easier to Google it. Explaining it in words isn't to easy. In any given position, a maximum of Seven faces are vi…

    How difficult would it be to detect an extraterrestrial craft/colony inside our solar system? I think we can assume they can generate power at least on a level that we can so assuming a moderate output of 1000 megawatts most of which would have to radiated away as waste heat at some point after it was used to do work "how far away could we detect such a source of infrared"? Feel free to correct me if these assumptions are unreasonable or if you can think of a better model.

    In physics, Energy is understood through Weight and Motion. If an object is heavy, it contains more energy. If that object is moving fast, it contains even more energy. Energy is an abstract concept that is a value for the amount of work a system can potentially force onto neighbouring systems. Its purpose is to explain the displacement of matter (systems). From a traditional physics perspective, a rock and a bottle of coke, of the same weight, moving at the same speed, contain roughly the same amount of energy. However, there is another perspective where a bottle of coke contains more energy than a rock of similar weight. This energy exists because a bot…
