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.

    Space exists between locations. Nothing expands until a new location exists, expansion is the addition of possible locations.

  2. The soul, ego, independent consciousness is a central tenet of most religions. However, Science cannot allow for the belief of an independent consciousness that survives death. If I am correct, the scientific method depends on the senses as the only source of reality. However, to maintain some sense of balance, I think that it is only fair to allow people who are believers in a soul to come up with an experiment. I can only come up with one, as follows, which is a safer alternative to killing the experimental subject: A person, or people, who claim that their consciousness can leave their bodies during sleep, an maintain some vision or hearing, are safely lock…

    I think we can express the four space/time dimensions as motion in four directions. 0 dimensions = point. It has no direction, so no dimension. 1 dimension = line. The distance required a moment to exist and it has length. The expanding line has movement in two directions. We can call these directions (dimensions) length and time. 2 dimension = triangle. The corners move outward in three directions (dimensions). Length, time and width. 3 dimension = tetrahedron. the four vertisies move in different directions to create the expanding tetrahedron. The directions (dimensions) are length, time, width and height. So movement in at least four directions is r…

  9. The electronic structure went astray when everyone hopped on the Bohr bandwagon. Electrons are NOT likely to form spheres and xyz orbitals around a nucleus. Indeed, orthogonality is only applied within each level when it should be applied to all levels. Thus, the current model has lots of interpenetrating orbitals - why don't e's bump into one another? Why aren't the orbitals repulsing one another in the overlap regions? Scientists had a chance to select the correct "aerospace" model when they found it necessary to “hybridize” their orbital network to actually explain even simple molecules. They chose, however, to go their merry way and ignore the fact that their base mod…

    I have been defining the primary origin in relation the founding structure of perception, as we witness an observer effect. We represent a singular origin with a blank page and the point thereon, and primary origin is merely a comparison between that which has no relative and that which is irrelevent. It could be either, there are no differentiating qualities, so by contrasting the possible undefinable states we represent singularity as a demonstration of opposites, is and isn't perhaps. I find accurate notions of an origin pertain to having 1 discernable element, we say location because two things can't occupy the same space. So the primary origin consists of…

    For some years I have been advocating a classical explanation of particle and atomic structure. This has been rejected by those who believe that only Quantum Theory should be used for particle physics. This article shows how the table on: http://www.scienceforums.net/forum/showthread.php?t=32854 (structural Fractions) combined with method used to create a table of elements on: http://www.scienceforums.net/forum/showthread.php?t=38485 (table of elements) and the explanation of particle structure given on: http://69.5.17.59/clf8.pdf (CLF model) can be combined to explain the difference between atomic radii predicted by QT and classical atomic radii found by the inter…

    Kyrisch I think you are on the right track - ALL things have a potential to be True, False or Neutral simultaneously. 2 + 2 = 4 But divide 4 by 3 and you get 1.3333333 remaining not 1 Divide 3 by 2 and you get renmaining 1.5 not 1 Note how the remainder of these numbers are > 1 Haven't got time to discuss now but 1 is never actually 1 exactly so 2 + 2 = NOT EXACTLY 4 (TRUE)

    After reading a whole bunch of literature regarding extraterrestrial civilizations and the Fermi Paradox, it has me wondering about a lot of things. Well, the first reaction is, what the hell?! For one, it is reasonable to believe that there should be a huge number of advanced civilizations out there even if the Rare Earth hypothesis is true just simply because of the sheer size of the Universe. But on the other hand, we have not have any success in making contact, or even detecting a single one, and there is no reliable evidence that some form of extraterrestrial intelligence has ever visited Earth. It should be no surprise that SETI hasn't detected anythi…

    Anyone know of any other theories besides evolution and creationism? Im looking for a theory that unifies creation of life and the laws of physics. I find it odd in the world of physics there is a very thin line for an experiment to work or the laws of physics to work, yet in evolution there is a lot of play i.e. mutation -> new being .

    According to many theories (including string theory i believe) there is a type of multiverse which contains many many other universes. In my understanding, the laws of physics apply only inside a given universe. With that what can we say about the physics in the multiverse? might these multiverse physics allow for multiple multiverses? discuss.

    I'm looking for an explanation of what four dimentional space-time means in terms of understanding the nature of time. Admittedly, I cannot really conceive of what a four dimenional structure would look like. I've heard all the analogies of imagining a two dimensional space with time as the third dimension, so I'm not looking for anything like that. Calling time a fourth dimension and weaving a "fabric" of space-time seems to give time some spatial qualities that I'm having trouble reconciling. If all points in a 1 dimensional line are present within a 2 dimensional plane, all ponts on a 2 dimensional plane are present within a 3 dimensional cube, all points in a 3 dime…

    I'm not very knowledgable on neuroscience but from what I've gathered there are 4 main categories of brainwave frequencies which dominate the brain of the average man. 1.) Beta waves - Predominant when the mind is most active and busy. Good mindset for multitasking and quick thinking 2.) Alpha waves - Predominant when the person is calm and relaxed or in a meditative state. Good state for learning, reading, coming up with ideas and creative tasks such as painting 3.) Theta - Supposedly these brainwaves or dominant in the brain of someone who's dreaming or else on the verge of sleep. Also dominant in people under hypnotic trance 4.) Delta - Dominant in the brain of so…

    Sorry, have an idea eating away at my head and have to post it. So if thermodynamics, or energy flows from states of high to low or what not, does this count down on the quantum scale? I know I have posted this question here before but I am still not in an academic position to work on such yet. So with that in hand bear with me. Ok, so energy or what not flows from high to low, and in-between for it to exist, or satisfy conservation laws, would that not in its own right give probability for some kind of order and time? This is where einselection and decoherence bugger me so much, more so in regards to chemical systems. For instance the earth is in a process of g…

    relativity says that all objects consider themselves to be at rest and no experiment that they can perform can indicate otherwise. but if space and time are quantized then a moving particle should 'see' spacetime differently than a stationary one. imagine walking past a picket fence with evenly spaced pickets while a strobe flashes at exactly the same rate that the pickets are passing you. you would see the pickets as being stationary. now imagine that space and time are quantized into discrete units (arranged in a grid). if the minimum nonzero velocity (along one axis of the grid) for any object is one space quantum per one time quantum and all velocities are integ…

    Thief here... Before this thread dies.... I saw the note early on in this thread. I was disappointed to see it was all but ignored. Time does not exist. It is not a force...such as gravity. It is a form of measurement....a cognitive construct....created in the mind of man...a cognitive tool...to serve man. Numbers go the same way. Numbers are cognitive tools...which we use to examine our 'realities'. Take away the numbers....take away the clocks....nothing stops.

    I sometimes fell about the uncomfortable thought that since blood groups appeared, that statistics could show a link between blood and wealth or mentality. Suppose this were in some sense right, and that a couple forms, in which a partner had a "stronger" blood, that the other would be beaten, in some sense. Or that for example depending on the blood distribution in a family, the oedipus complex could be increased or decreased. Do you have any idea about this.
