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.

Now there isn't scientifically a actual Theory of Quantum Time Travel, or any Theory in general, to explain how Time Travel might actually work in Physics, but what if the "idea" of Time Travel was actually a branch of all different ideas (Theorys) put together, to try and understand the basic fundmental conspect of the one and only, Theory of Time Travel. This is infact my "idea", my Theory to explain how I think travelling in Time is possible, either foward, or even backwards... Now we all know the basic understanding of Time Travel, right? Well in simle terms it is the process to be able travel at the speed of light or even faster the speed of light, to (Travel fo…

The Chinese have almost perfected hot fusion. I think we should take a look at cold fusion again. I have made some notes on the subject. Here they are: Plan A: Collide 2 deuterium nuclei. Deuterium (or hydrogen-2) is one of two stable isotopes of hydrogen (the other being protium, or hydrogen-1). The nucleus of a deuterium atom, called a deuteron, contains one proton and one neutron, whereas the far more common protium has no neutron in the nucleus. Deuterium has an abundance in Earth's oceans of about one atom in 6420 of hydrogen. My idea: collide 2 deuterium nuclei at high speeds in opposite directions (use a cyclotron), causing them to fuse into helium nuclei, w…

I want to present here a model which gives all the fermions and gauge fields of the Standard Model of particle physics (SM). Given that it is my own theory, one could argue it should be published in "Speculations". But it has been published in a peer-reviewed journal, which makes it different from usual speculations: I. Schmelzer, A Condensed Matter Interpretation of SM Fermions and Gauge Fields, Foundations of Physics, vol. 39, nr. 1, p. 73 (2009), resp. arxiv:0908.0591. Popular representation of the model is given in my home page LINK REMOVED As the three generations of fermions, as the three colors are interpreted in the model in a geometric way,…

Somewhere around 1 x 10-18g in a vacuum is a new constant. The diffraction gets too small to identify fringes. It's a natural size for the object to be physical and to never be in superposition. Uncollapsed(stateless | unphysical | virtual) Quantum Waves + State(Matter Field or wave collapse or decoherence) + zero Diffraction showing fringes = Physical Matter (Real) If an object is too large to display fringes, it is automatically physical. The question now is if auto-physical objects have a physical state or maybe being naturally physical doesn't require it. Do I need to claim there is a physical state in the first place for even quantum sized…

Isn't it strange we can track the gap between some galaxies spreading faster than the speed of light? Two galaxies are gaining distance so fast that it's quicker than light. Well, that's what they tell us ..and that it's fine that it is quicker than light because it's just the space between the objects going faster. What? Nobody questions how weird this is? If that were true, our galaxy would be moving faster than light. The extra distance usually isn't even in the direction they are moving to or away from. It turns out that quantum fluctuations in empty space is proof spacetime is around. You aren't going to find it in empty space outside of ga…

В теории вихревой гравитации, космологии и космогонии представлены доказательства того, что силы притяжения создаются эфирными кручениями. В космическом масштабе гравитационное поле действует плоскосимметрично. Это объясняет многие физические явления, такие как: - эллиптические орбиты небесных тел, - прилив, - удаление или сближение спутников, планет или звезд друг с другом, - отклонение, замедление или ускорение космического аппарата. Это обстоятельство можно использовать для снижения стоимости космических полетов. Теория предлагает физические модели происхождения и эволюции черных дыр, планет, звезд, галактик и всей Вселенной, а такж…

This system of equations is written on the hypothesis of Jamie Farnes, according to which the space of the universe is filled with electric dipoles with negative mass. Gravity from positively charged matter attracts negative mass, so in areas of space where gravity is stronger, the permittivity will be higher. Based on this, the curvature of space by gravity can be replaced by a change in the dielectric constant of the vacuum, and electromagnetic waves will move in this space along curved trajectories in accordance with the law of refraction of light. It also tackles the question of whether gravity has mass. On the one hand, the gravitational field has energy, so it mus…

I'm going to start off with my own suggestion. But the thread would maybe more valuable if it was open to other suggestions, and the latest news. My own idea, ( which I'm not wedded to, but I think it's worth proposing ) is to fight bugs with bugs. The bugs are evolving antibiotic resistance by natural selection. But selective breeding works quicker than evolution. If a nasty bug has evolved resistance, how long would it take to BREED a strain with the opposite characteristic? i.e. A strain of the same bug that keels over at the slightest hint of the cheapest antibiotic. What use would that be ? Well, instead of trying to scrub every nook and cranny clean, y…

Hi, Here is a article that explain how the engine would work : https://www.newscientist.com/article/2218685-nasa-engineers-helical-engine-may-violate-the-laws-of-physics/ It relies on a component whose mass is alternatively changing between two values(by changing the energy of the system) This topic is not about the question of the engine working or not (I suppose there could be some relativistic effects associated with the mass changes that could cancel the whole thing : what is the derivative of acceleration ? and the derivative of curvature ? In fact when I think about it : - It wouldn't work maybe because a device whose mass would be decr…

Hi, I'm thinking about ways to help cleanse the body of pathogens such as for example many people have toxoplasma cysts in parts of their body. Most who have them are even unaware that they have them. All of us have some undesirable pathogens inside us: bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi and we accumulate more and more over our lifetime. I'm interested in methods to try to completely cleanse some of them out of our system. One method may be water fasting, a week without consuming any food might have a detrimental effect on some of these internal pathogens which require us to have a steady food intake for their own survival. In fact it's really interesting if som…

Further contemplation on my Unified Field Theory and starting to study chemistry leads immediately (the first day) to solving another long standing mystery in physics. WHY electrons orbit an atoms nucleus. The energy/vibration travels forward in a sense like an object on water, a duck, a boat, a swimmer. Moving forward and sending waves out in all directions as it does. Just as a swimmer arrives at the end of a swimming pool the forward wave hits the wall but the wave continues out in all directions. In the quantum world the object/vibration/energy can only move forward but as the fabric of space time becomes curved that path also becomes curved hence why electrons get fi…

Δt∝1/ΔxΔp ΔxΔp is inversely proportional to Δt. By adding a third factor...time... to Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle we solve the double slit experiment....at last...it's basically about focus (think magic eye 2D holograms) in 3 dimensional time. When we half the time variable by detecting which slit the "particle" passes through we double the certainty of finding hits at the 2 main vertical bands on the back wall and halve the certainty of finding hits from subsequent waves. So with enough particles fired during detecting which slit we should still see the interference pattern but very very slightly (so slight they have never been noticed before…

When we divide a number other than zero with 1 we get the same number. Dividing with 1 means cutting the number into 1 part, it means the number remains as a single part, the number remains same. When we divide a number with 2 we mean to say that we are cutting the number into 2 parts and we get two halves of the original number. Dividing with zero/0 means we are cutting the number into zero parts or we can say that we are making that number into zero. It means the number has to become zero. It means the number will be equal to zero which is not possible. There is an exception and that number is zero itself. Zero can be divided by zero as we get the same equality. Zero is…

I appreciate all comments on this short summary. Most importantly...do you get it? When Plato thanked Pythagoras, he recognizes that only by pairing his study with that of his predecessor was he able to create something new. His early model of the universe was a two part system of forms and things. He was right. We expand his work to modern multiple universe theory or m-theory. The forms become (near perfect) formal information which is created and stored in the negative universe. Things become all mass, energy and concepts in the known universe. *Life may create informal information. The divide (Interaction) between the pair of universes is described as the …

One is Ejection Theory, that the Earth was ejected from the sun. Two is Deflation Theory, that the moon was ejected from the earth shortly after the earth was ejected from the sun. These theories discredit Ram Pressure Theory by reframing crater impacts as gas and/or substance vents resulting from initial conditions of a molten state. Ejection Theory applies to all heavenly bodies as having their place in the Solar System as the result of ejection including asteroids, and showing the pop marks on planets and asteroids as the venting of gases and substances in the case of visible splatter. Ejection Theory further states that molten planetary ejection into the conditions of…

Hello all, Recently I have read a number of good scientific arguments which says humans are not evolved on this planet. The book says we were droped off by aliens to our Earth. The arguments can be summarized as follows. But I am not sure whether the arguments are really true or not. It would be great if someone specialized in this subject can guide me to the correct path. 1. Humans are particularly sensitive to sunlight - something that other species are immune to. Reptiles make use of sunlight to regulate their temperature, but humans need to avoid spending long periods exposed to sun as it can make dizzy and cause heat stroke. Most of the other animals…

A fluid map is made when water flows over a flat plaster surface previously impregnated with dye which changes color when wetted. A heavy sheet of glass rests on the plaster. When water is pumped through the central inlet it flows outwards through the sandwich. It flows along a wetted surface much easier than it does across a dry one, so as soon as these wetted avenues get started, the water bursts forth as clear expanding spokes of radial flow, separated by expanding spokes of dry no flow. Photos are taken thru the glass cover. Hard to ignore n’est ce pas.
