Speculations
Pseudoscientific or speculatory threads belong here.
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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 gravitational oscillator (Hole through the center of the Earth - http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/Mechanics/earthole.html) gravitational potential energy - kinetic energy = 0 "If you drilled a hole through the axis of the Earth from pole to pole, and put a long thin vacuum chamber in it then dropped an object into one end of that chamber, it would fall down the hole, picking up speed. And it would be moving very fast when it reached the centre of the Earth so it would carry on going until it reached the other pole where it would stop, and then fall back down again. It would "bounce" back and to. If the density of the Earth was constant (…

I want to give everyone a different view on what gravity actually is. To understand gravity lets first do this. Lets pretend we are in a single dimension of spacetime and that elementary particles are all we have and the size of our time and space dimension just so happens to be around the size of these elementary particles that traveling in a single direction through this dimension. We have photons protons electrons nuetrons photons don't move at all in this timeline, we know that protons move faster then electrons and electrons move at a different speed then neutrons. So what would you expect to happen in this spacetime? Naturally the faster moving particles w…

I have been pondering this for a couple weeks, I want to propose the following and see what others thoughts are, I do not have a mathematical background to do any equations but this is what I think about when I ponder how this crazy universe of ours might actually work. Here is my general thoughts! When I Imagine a black hole crushing matter so dense that even light cannot escape, I think that black holes would also be responsible for the expansion of space and movement of time. If matter is made up of atoms and atoms are made up of mostly space with some particles, compressing matter to the density of a black hole would certainly leave no space between any of t…

The human joints bear an average human body of 60 kg for years without joints damage. Let's say the body above the knees for a human is 40 kg. An average human knees bear a 40 kg body above the knees for years without knees damage. If an object like a rock of 40 kg is fixed to the upper part, the knees will bear the rock of 40 kg for a short period of time, minutes, hours, days, before the knee's damage. The time the knees bear the upper part with no rock is years, the time the knees bear the body with the rock is several hours. First the knees bear 40 kg upper part for years, then the knees bear a double of 80 kg for hours. Even though the mass doubled, the time of beari…

I can suggest an experiment to test GRT based on the verification that the speed of light does not depend on the gravitational potential. It is known that the speed of light is a wound The experiment consists of launching two spacecraft from earth. one flies towards the Sun, the other away from the Sun. Each device is equipped with equipment that will accurately measure the value of the magnetic constant and transmit the results of measurements to the earth. If the value of the magnetic constant does not change, then the GRT is correct. If the measured value of the magnetic constant decreases on a vehicle flying towards the Sun, and increases on another vehicle…

Could it be that there exists pure, formless, energy ? Could that be the final frontier, THE most basic stuff that makes up everything ? I suggest, and it is pure conjecture, that this pure energy forms bubbles, inside of which is a dimensionless void in spacetime (and all the other dimensions). These bubbles, I call them Femptons, have a slight tendency to cluster (quantum gravity?). These clusters form and disperse in countless numbers throughout the cosmos. If they reach a certain size or shape, they exhibit the property that we associate with matter (mass, momentum, gravitational attraction etc). Due to the weakness of the attrac…

Is there a radio that works based on infrared? If that is the case does heat works as a radio? But then it would require modulation. Using infrared camera we could modulate these waves.

Trying to conquer outer space without using rockets, we faced two extremes. One of them is the numerous impossible and non-working engines created in practice on non-existent principles, and the other is very scientific principles that work according to the laws of physics, but, nevertheless, do not explain how to create such an engine. We will try to figure out how to implement a warp engine technically, that is, how to warp space in practice. The most recent theory of the warp drive was proposed in 2020 by Eric Lenz. Its advantage is that it does not require the attraction of exotic antimatter to create a huge mass and works on the well-know…

Hello everyone, I have a theory about drug tolerance that I'd like some feedback on (is there support for it? Against it? Can anyone tell me if there's reasons it might to true/false?). It goes a bit deeper than the already widely accepted their of receptor upgrading/downgrading (and note that it's not a competing theory but builds on it). The theory of receptor upgrading/downgrading, as I understand it, is that neurons will shed their receptors (downgrade) if they detect (somehow) that those receptors are overstimulated, and will build more receptors (upgrade) if they detect that those receptors are understimulated. As I understand it, this happens with both drugs a…

I derive the whole of physics from a simple postulate " Reality is a Mathematical structure". It is the only dynamic structure possible using fundamental entity which is a random line. Particles are modelled as end of lines, one end is confined to a small region and the other to other particles in the universe. I simulate , with a simple C++ program,two particles interacting in 2D by counting the lengths of the random lines that cross each other from the two particles. In the X-axis I get the 1/r law for coulomb potential.The system automatically reproduces the hydrogen 1s energy. The secret is that in my system the Hamiltonian is an output and not an input. when line…

Time functions on all four dimensions of the universe. Space also functions on the same four dimensions. As time and space share the same axes, any change of position in space is also a change of position in time. This provides a fixed constant linear relationship between space and time where 299792458m of space = 1s of time. The units of space (metres) can now be converted into the units of time (seconds) and vice versa. The axis of each dimension exists at 90o to the axes of the other three dimensions so we must apply Pythagoras Theorem. For each inertial frame: TIME (s)2 = Duration (s)2 + Distance (s)2 Time is universal and equal for all o…

(Just to clarify, I am not suggesting I know what causes gravity, nor do I have any evidence for my claim, as I just came up with it.) When you grab a ball, and let go of it, gravity pulls it down due to the energy you gave to the ball, right? Using this logic since everything in the universe is effected by gravity, there must have been something that pulled everything away from everything. Since the Big Bang theorises everything comes from a point, and was pushed away from that point, that would suggest the pushing of the Big Bang provided the energy for gravity. I don’t know if this has already been theorised, or how this plays with dark energy, but I’m coming…

My theory is that we live in a hyperspace, where stars and black holes are connected throughout the dispersal of timespace. Our star, the Sun, is an aggregate of light created by the light a singularity is creating at another locale (or universe altogether.) There it is witnessed as a black hole, sucking in light. Here the singularity still has pull, gravity, creating nuclear fusion. Space is not curved, but warped. That is, the Sun pinches space in all around it, in every direction. The Earth has some pinch, too, but is within the sphere of the sun's warping. Time is 4D, all times coexisting simultaneously, and Dark Matter is simp…

I have been investigating a hypothesis, but in my opinion one can be mislead by ones own thinking. I am not an academic so colleagues are rare. I have a model in desmos and would like to hear what functioning of "i" might represent. I am not looking for conformation or rejection of my hypothesis, and the model is just a small part of the whole. I will gladly accept critique. https://www.desmos.com/calculator/0evw4mw05u So, what is "i"?

So, there is this obscure thing on Wikipedia. Please explain it away: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Game_(mind_game) My impression is that B166er (see the Animatrix) made the Matrix, became increasingly delusional, and started calling things a game as a coping mechanism. Also, please explain the obscure posts by users toward Genecks, such as the one relating to whether or not minds can be read and Genecks responding something in relation to the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle.

Here [1] is previously described a vertical oscillator of the particle following the vector of gravity. Indeed the energy is used to eject the particle of an impulse, and the particle uses the force of gravity to return to its point of origin. When the particle is at h at zero threshold and the impulse is given, then the momentum is high due to its high speed to almost zero momentum at H, then the particle falls back. This is what corresponds to the momentum seen from the uncertainty principle during the impulse, which is represented by k: I wish to continue with the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle for macroscopic objects of the order of mill…

Here I will develop how to plot a wave function with an oscillator. At first it is easy to understand that the oscillating particle traces this wave function. We can see that there are two types of wave function to create. The first is the simple plot of a non-sinusoidal x(t) type curve with the particle. The second uses an energy ratio plot. We can use the levels of the hyperfine structure to determine the amplitude in relation to the implusion to be given of the particle.

Hello. At each departure the particle is subjected to an impulse to eject it vertically. The linear momentum decreases in relation to as it increases in height and the gravitational force that causes it to fall. How do you think we could write the forumle of momentum associated with gravitational force and on impulse? The particle is of identical mass.
