Only you know the details. I’m asking because I don’t know. You keep talking about a signal and an interaction but won’t elaborate. I can’t Google it because AFAICT it’s your pet theory, rather than mainstream science.

The number of significant digits depends on the precision of the data you have.

Bold by me. You seem to be presenting an alternative view that a signal is needed. And I am asking for details of that signal.

Modern and theoretical physics would probably be the best match.

Yes. It’s called field ionization. Both nuclei are positively charged. Accelerating them independently is what happens in accelerators, and it’s not easy to do, nor do you get a large number of them to collide. Earnshaw’s theorem tells us you can’t confine the charges with static electric fields

What does this have to with neutrinos?

What interaction is used to send this qubit? Electromagnetic and gravitational are limited to c. Will you ever answer this question?

Can you answer the question now? You acknowledge that the signal between Alice and Bob travels no faster than c. But previously you said there was another signal that Bob reads prior to that. What is that signal?

What electric and magnetic field? Right- and left-handed refer to the spin relation to the momentum vector. There’s no charge or charge distribution.

How can Bob read a signal before it gets to him?

IR = infrared light, so you can’t see it. As I said, you only get enough return when an object is nearby; the beam expands with distance. If you touch it, you’re blocking the sensor, so it won’t trigger

These are main entrance, though it’s a gated community, and we have people at the gate.

It could be an IR source and detector. You only get enough return when an object is nearby. If you touch it, you’re blocking the sensor. We have these at work for ADA compliance - the door opens automatically rather than opening by hand or pushing a button. Not security-related, as such.

“astrophotography” doesn’t specify a wavelength. It just suggests where the camera is pointing. It would depend on the wavelength, and what the wall is made of. Radomes, for example, are designed to be transparent to certain wavelength ranges.

You persist in saying they interact, and yet have not explained what the nature of the interaction is.

Nothing I've discussed requires you to try and be in a photon's frame of reference.

! Moderator Note Since we're omitting the religion I've moved this to speculations, but as has been pointed out, you need to develop a model and present evidence or tests that could be conducted. How do we detect this aether? Are we at rest or are we moving through it? How do you explain the experiments that say we are not at rest nor moving through it? (rather than concluding that there is no aether)

Photons are quantum particles, so you've already excluded classical behavior that you could include if you just said "light" Atoms can exhibit classical behavior and quantum behavior, depending on what you're looking at. So photons are more quantum than atoms. I'm not sure (I'm not a cosmologist), but we do know how long it took for recombination to occur, so there have to be some features that are time dependent.

Eventually it does, but the ticking is an interaction between photons and atoms.

Atomic clocks involve quantum systems, so obviously the answer is yes. I think an issue here is you are asking very general questions, when specific ones need to be asked.

If we send polarized light somewhere and there are no interactions along the way, the polarization will be the same on arrival. There are experiments which rely on this. If there is an interaction that affects polarization, all bets are off. As before, it depends on the interaction.

It depends on the measurement being made. If I measure the charge on an electron, the result is not going to depend on earlier measurements. The energy of a photon won’t depend on the determination of its polarization. (with a properly designed experiment) Other measurements will affect subsequent ones.

You need to learn what “proof” is (i.e. evidence) is in science. Your post was not deleted. It was moved out of the thread because AS I TOLD YOU, religion, and not science, discussion belongs in a religion thread. They should not be mixed. You ignored this. Having a hissy for your willful ignorance and non-compliance does not endear you to the staff. Your powers of observation are suspect, especially considering your stay here dates back a whole three days, and 7 posts. Or have you been here before under a different user name? The rules are pretty clear, as was my instruction to you. Were you confused by my moderator note? A legend in your own mind Perhaps a fellow mod will do the honors. I think keeping you as the Dunning-Kruger poster child might be of some benefit.
