Surface waves in a liquid
I learned recently that these - nonlinear standing waves that appear on liquids enclosed by a vibrating receptacle - are known as Faraday waves https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_wave

Paper: A causal mechanism for gravity
If you have a moving clock, it will experience time dilation. Even in deep space. Gamma is speed dependent in special relativity.

Should NHS Staff in the UK Face Mandatory Vaccination?
! Moderator Note This would be an example of what people are referring to when they call attention to arguments in bad faith. Characterizing this as an "attempt to mislead" and a "deflection tactic" assume that you know the motivation behind the posts, and you don't. ! Moderator Note You're the one who doubled down on this. You could have simply apologized for your assumption, but you didn't, and are lashing out at others instead. The one thing you can fix is your own posting style, and that's all on you. Do not mistake this as an invitation to debate the issue.

Are Vegan's, a help or a hindrance to, our future?
! Moderator Note So you don't have evidence. "Can feel remorse" is a much weaker position than your original claim ! Moderator Note The topic is "Are Vegan's, a help or a hindrance to, our future?" so the question is about vegans, not vegetarians, and while the question is vague, you have not made a case for it being about ethics. Please make a better effort to be on topic.

Paper: A causal mechanism for gravity
In the scenario I brought up r would either be infinite, or is the same for both clocks, because we're discussing a situation where we're ignoring gravity. It's getting increasingly difficult to think that this is just an oversight on your part. So gamma is 1, from your calculation. There is no bending of light in deep space. And yet we can have time dilation

That’s a title bestowed by the forum software, just as you are currently designated as a lepton. Try not to be an ass.

The Science Of Stupidity.
The right of freedom of speech involves the government. This forum isn’t run by any government, so it’s a non-issue. You are visiting a place that belongs to someone else. You are a guest here. Limitations on your speech are well within the authority of those who run this place. And, of course, disagreement in no way infringes on your right, and neither does being held accountable by others for what you say.

Paper: A causal mechanism for gravity
Why would the index equal gamma? I’m looking for a physics justification. Not something you’re just making up.

Paper: A causal mechanism for gravity
It’s a matter of getting you to follow the rules. Refusing to do so seems combative to me. I don’t see how this relates to time dilation causing anything.

No, it’s not. This is something you made up. Did you ever read rule 2.7? This suggests you have not. members should be able to participate in the discussion without clicking any links or watching any videos. … Attached documents should be for support material only; material for discussion must be posted

Paper: A causal mechanism for gravity
You said time dilation causes the refraction and now you’re saying it’s the other way. And without actually showing where time dilation is involved.

Perhaps she is less shallow than you are, and also cares not a whit what you think about her personal preferences.

Hot stuff: Lab hits milestone on long road to fusion power
Adding money only solves a problem if you are underfunded - that you can't buy some equipment or there's labor not happening and you can hire people to do it. So yes, if you need flanges and gaskets for your vacuum system because you lack funding, then more money helps. If you need someone to tighten the bolts because you can't fund that job, then adding money helps. Do you have any evidence that this is an actual bottleneck? Adding money can actually slow you down, since you need to figure out what to spend it on. If you're already adequately funded, it won't be obvious what should be on your shopping list. We've had times in my current job where the research ground to a halt because we were handed money (often at the end of the fiscal year, where not spending it runs the risk of future budget cuts) and had to figure out what to spend it on, look at equipment specs, get the required quotes, etc. There are things you shouldn't buy in advance, so "let's buy a spare <whatever>" may not be a good use of money. Some things in research just take time. As the saying goes, it takes 9 months for a woman to make a baby. You can't use 9 women to make a baby in one month.

What does any of this have to do with the Casimir effect?

Paper: A causal mechanism for gravity
Well, I disagree, but in any event you need to address objections to your idea. You can’t ignore the fact that your claim that time dilation causes optical deflection fails in the situation I described, which falsifies the hypothesis that it’s caused by time dilation.
