Speculations

So, a crazy idea has occurred to me. How can we tell whether a particle-antiparticle pair disappear after annihilating? If their energy is all in the form of potential energy (with respect to its antiparticle), all the energy will be gone after they annihilate. But how could we tell the difference whether the particles disappear of not? The antiparticle would have exactly opposite charge and magnetic moment as the particle and would be in the same place, so it would cancel out its electromagnetic field. Suppose that all throughout space there were a bunch of particle-antiparticle pairs that have "annihilated" and lost all their mass, but the rest of the particle and a…

Manifold: if our 3d world is a manifold in a 4d world then a huge worlds could form on the surface of this manifold. smaller manifolds could form from gamma ray bursts at the centers of galaxies. fields as stess in manifold does not work: the obvious idea of simply relating stress/strain in the manifold with long range forces does not lead to an inverse square law. What would you have to do to get it to work? lets take the electric field as an example. the manifold would have to be made of particles each of which is an electric dipole. you can think of each dipole as a positive charge and a negative charge connected by a spring. now think of t…

Hi, I just wrote a short article explaining how, in a way, there is a big bang inside of us all.. http://phoenix-from-the-wasteland.com/blog1.php/2009/03/30/the-big-bang-inside-of-us-all What does everybody think? Cheers, McGarr

"Numerologists believe that events linked to the time 11:11 appear more often than chance or coincidence. This belief is related to the concept of synchronicity. Other authors believe it is an auspicious sign, and others that it signals a spirit presence. Although not an originator of the concept, Uri Geller has spoken repeatedly about 11:11, and the belief that it has mystical powers has also been adopted by many believers in New Age philosophies. However, some skeptics say that Geller's examples of 11:11 phenomenon in world events are examples of post-hoc reasoning and confirmation bias." Ok that aside, what do you really think is the 11:11 phenomenon? Why do …

Hey, this is my first thread in a while, by which time I hope I'm now able to ask actually interesting questions, even if they are still pointless. (There's a summary at the end if you want to tear some speculations up as soon as possible.) About a year ago when reading the Wikipedia article on the Big Rip scenario, I had a question as to what might happen at very late times. I wrote it up with, and I must stress this here, the explicit intention of proving it wrong and so learning from the endeavour; I expect it is entirely false and without merit, but I do not yet have sufficient knowledge, or have not yet considered it in the right way, to absolutely prove it wrong…

How can we have distiance when i have a gf who lives states away from me and we talk on webcame and on the phone. would this make distiance irelevent

If we suppose that 1. matter and antimatter gravitationally repel 2. gravitational time dilation is proportional to the intensity of the gravitational field (i.e. an event horizon never forms) 3. gravitational collapse to denser and denser states of matter continues almost indefinitely. (i.e. a singularity never forms) 3. the universe began with a single star that was so big that pair production was occurring in its core. As the neutral antimatter in the star made its way to the surface and was expelled the pressure at the center of the star would increase. This would cause more gravitational collapse which would create more energy which would produce still…

Absolutely FREE ..... Please listen ... Be aware.... wake up .... steer your mind towards the Golden Age ... And please don't dismiss .... http://www.supermindevolutionsystem.com/page1/ I just wish more and more people would realize the HUman Consciousness is more powerful than people can imagine....Yes the Elite are controlling us... Most of our thought patterns are directed by them,and at the moment they are writing the script. BUT WE CAN CHANGE THE SCRIPT I believe we are ready for change. There are more people waking up realizing what is being presented is not reality. And the time has come for change.

For many years now, like 30, I have been trying to work out what kind of mechanism could have started the evolution of life on Earth, and since I cannot accept the God concept and science has been unable to identify anything specific I decided to come up with my own idea. However, I am not a scientist and have no formal qualifications in this area, but what knowledge I do have is from years of research study, my own life experience and common sense with a vivid imagination. The following is just a small portion of my complex idea, and perhaps best represents the scientific possibilities to support the idea. I believe that the solar system is just a gigantic Atom…

I have been considering Casimir plates braced apart to form a field that "upconverts" longer wavelength vacuum flucuations. these plates are incarnated as pouous cavities in skeletal catalysts. Casimir forces increase dramatically below 10 nm so I am considering 2 nm as a good candidate for the "throat" area between the opening into the exclusion field and the strongest area of the field where the plates are closest. The upconversion means that space-time redistributes wider on the temporal axis to accomodate the squeeze caused by conductive plates in our plane. How do I assign a distance to something I have always considered a unit of time?

I wonder if and when we make actual contact with an alien being that it will be from the future creations of mankind? Possibly part computer and part biological. They have been able to transcend time with all the years of accumulation of knowledge and using that increase in knowledge to expand itself exponentionally compared to us? My idea of a movie screen play I'm working on. Think it'll sell?

Ok so like I have no real evidence because aliens stole it from my house, BUT I can link you to some obscure math I really don't understand myself, and relate it some how to my theory....then I am going to make a logical jump based of a wiki entry. then act like everyone else is the crazy one.

OK this is crazy but interesting - I recall Tesla lore regarding HV fields solidifying ether to use the term originally applied - We also have tons of unsubstantiated UFO "sightings" never physical proof allowing more plausability to a "window" VS actual physical visitation. to get back to Tesla HV fields many sightings are near transmission lines or HV experiments like the space tether which would provide 1 HV field while I assume the UFO itself would provide the other in order to drive its plasma. Could two distant HV fields be oriented and deformed by "solidification" to form a temporal lens system just like gravitational bodies can be used to form a gravitational lens…

Hi. First of all let me say that I've only had a few out-of-the-ordinary experiences in my life. I posted one about awake and still dreaming. Since I'm here, I may as well post this one too. A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far,...wait wrong story. Actually, when I was 16 years old on a sunny day in June, I saw an object in the sky. I was standing near the edge of the road while my brother was on the porch talking to friends. I was near a tree and was staring at a jet make trails in the sky. Then something to my left caught my attention. A large blue sphere was flying along horizontally and heading toward the center of town. It made no noise and disappeare…

What if time and length are no longer absolutes? You’ve got your digital watch on your wrist and a ruler on your desk. These seem like absolutes: a second and a centrimetre for you must be the same as they are for me, and the same as they are on Alpha Centauri. But maybe they’re not. If I stay on my balcony while you start flying round the galaxy at an incredible speed, and if you could later whiz past my balcony so that we could somehow compare watches and rulers, my theory is your ruler would be smaller and your watch would be going slower than mine. It wouldn't seem different to you but I think the speed would make it different the weird thing is if a person went reall…

Well, it's about time for one of my silly questions. I had asked once before if the gravitational field strength increased or decreased as one moves from the surface of say, the earth, to its core. The answer was that it decreases, roughly linearly, as one moves to the core - finally ending up at zero. Now, I can only assume this is the case as one moves from the surface of the earth, out into space, as well. From this assumption, I would conclude that the gravitational field strength is strongest on the surface. Are these correct assumptions, or have I missed the boat again? This is the setup for my question, in a fictional setting... Let'…

I love science fiction and read a lot. I also read a certain amount of fantasy. However, I have this feeling that a fantasy writer can get away with anything - worlds based on magic. However, a science fiction writer should respect good science, and try and get, at least the basics, right. Current book I am reading shows space aeroplanes flying into orbit with electric coils in their wings to ride on the Earth's magnetic field. Of course that is impossible, so I cringe. I suppose that even the idea of faster than light travel is really an impossibility and a cringe factor. However, I tend to accept at least one such piece of non science per book as a plot …

Can we compare physics and psychology? Libido is an energy source—Heat is an energy source—there is potential and kinetic energy Emotion aka instinct is an energy source— Narcissism is a force—gravity is a force—electromagnetism is a force—within the atom there are the strong and weak forces—there are four physical forces within nature. Narcissism is a force that displays itself in--self-absorption—self-love—sense of immortality—self-esteem—cosmic significance—self-importance—feeds on symbols, on abstract ideas of my own worth Guilt is a feeling caused by outside resistance Feeling—the mental experience of an emotion after the body has reacted to the …

A proposal to travel at the speed of light: Travel as Light. By having a machine scan a human and send his information via a computer encoded ensamble of photons, a human can send not only what he looks like, but his genetic makeup, every cell in his body, and every last bit of what he is in a strand of photons that are ordered in such a way that a computer can recieve them far away. The computer would decode this strand of light and with another machine far away, reassemble the human at the new location (the person that opted to be transported via beams of photons would be discarded of to preserve the theme of someone traveling and not just duplicating himself). T…

Time seems to be inversely related to speed to me. If I speed up to just under the speed of light, physical restrictions not withstanding, time slows down for me relative to anyone not moving as fast. It almost seems like we are constantly traveling forward through time as we are now, and can affect the speed at which we travel through time by increasing the speed at which we travel through space. If a man could bypass the flow of time of the rest of the universe by traveling quickly, it implies to me that time is an established dimension that can be traveled along just the same as the three spatial dimensions. My question is to what degree does this relativistic propert…

I thought the Cyclical Universe idea was thrown out with the discovery of dark energy, but I read an article in an astronomy magazine today that said String Theory involves a cyclical model where the universe contracts after the dark energy spreads the universe out because of a spring force that wasn't explained very well in the article. The magazine said that our universe was part of a cycle that repeats every trillion years or so. Is this an actual aspect of string theory? I've always been interested in the idea of eternal return. I wonder, if all of the particles in the universe were condensed back to the big bang moment, and the process were repeated in the same way,…

I don't buy into conspiracy theories, but in a debate with a friend, I was stumped by a few points he made. He gave me some YouTube links to check out (yeah, I know), but I'm still stumped. Mainly because I'm not a physicist or a structural engineer I suspect. Here are the points I could use some help with (I'm just trying to summarise his whole argument here): 1) Three buildings, despite suffering different structural damage (i.e. two being hit at different points and burning for different times, one not being hit at all apart from by debris from the othersl), all manage to fall tidily into their own footprint with almost no deflection or resistance from the more…

If we want to understand physics, first of all we have to understand, create a coherent picture of the nature of time. So in this thread I would like to discuss about consequences of hypothetical assumption that there is a possibility to influence the past - does it have to lead to contradictions (time paradoxes)? Observe that CPT conservation suggests that causality can go in both time directions... in general relativity we want more or less smooth 4D manifold - to minimize tensions from both time directions... http://www.advancedphysics.org/forum/showthread.php?p=52348 First of all, let's assume some interpretation of quantum mechanics ... physics. Some people be…
