danshawen:
During the plague years, I've worked out more than just a few things. Asimov was right again. My ignorance is as good as your knowledge. Let me demonstrate a manifesto all my own. This is as good a place as any to do it. Physics Stack Exchange won't let me, so this will work.
Thanks for providing an example for this thread.
1. Difference between c and c^2:
If there is a difference between a vector velocity and the speed of light because the latter cannot be added to, then there is also a difference between an ordinary acceleration and the very special acceleration known as c^2, even though there isn't a name for it. Wondering why Newton's dimensional analysis doesn't fit c^2? It's because Newton didn't know the first thing about the speed of light, nor relativity, nor the nature of time itself. Time is proportional to 1/acceleration, not c.
$c^2$ isn't an acceleration. Acceleration has units of length divided by squared time, whereas $c^2$ has units of squared length divided by squared time.
2. c^2 IS MOST DEFINITELY an acceleration in all directions at once, of zero magnitude (compare that idea to its counterpart; a speed that is not a vector!)
No. See above.
Understand what c^2 means with nothing more exotic than a laser pointer. Point an infinitely long coherence length laser in EVERY direction in the universe, the way light would expand normally. How long will that take? Forever. c^2 is that.
$c^2$ isn't a time. It doesn't have units of time.
Moving the laser pointer cannot be done at a speed greater than c. See the difference? c^2, not c, is the fundamental basis of time itself.
You haven't actually explained why you think that.
It is also the fundamental basis of inertia.
Or that.
NOW you can see the Anderson-Higgs mechanism for the pseudoscience it is.
That's the first time you have mentioned that. You haven't explained anything, yet.
IT BREAKS BOTH THE PRINCIPLE OF EQUIVALENCE AND NEWTON'S THIRD LAW.
Does it? Can you explain?
Inertia can normally not be given by something like a boson which has no inertia of its own.
The Higgs boson does not give things inertia.
You know what can provide inertia to quarks and electrons? The inertialess, charge-less and quantum spin-less one dimensional fermions that comprise time=space itself.
Which fermions are you referring to, specifically? Have they been detected?
Ever wonder why it was even possible to derive the Lorentz transformations of length and time using only ONE dimension to do it in?
As far as I'm aware, you need at least two dimensions for that.
Ever wonder why it is when anything that has inertia is accelerated, the INERTIAL mass increases IN ONE DIMENSION ONLY? 'Relativity squared' is why.
What's "relativity squared"? Can you explain?
Sound interesting? Because some people's ignorance really is better than everyone else's knowledge. Mine. Every scientist since Aristotle missed this. Asimov missed this. Too bad. I think he would have enjoyed it.
I think you're making a good case for what Asimov said. Please continue.
Three of us (Chuck Keyser, Jr, Stephen S. Upson, and I) put our heads together and came up with this new model of a fermion. It just works.
What do you mean? What does your new model help with? What does it work for? Can you give an example?
Einstein, Nordström, and Ehrenfest tried to do the same thing, and it totally flopped, because it included a hard fermion "shell" that was not explained by c^2; Relativity^2, (the 'force' that binds fermions into spheres). General Relativity was created because their model of a fermion flopped.
Did Einstein say somewhere that this is why he created General Relativity? Interesting. I was not previously aware of this. Got a quote?
New theories of dark matter and dark energy are still not there because the model of a fermion flopped. Ours didn't. Both dark matter and dark energy are explained by our model. Angular momentum, quantum spin, etc is energy that produces the excess gravitational force.
Where can I see the details of this model?
The entire universe (not just spiral galaxies) is spinning.
How is that detected? Or is that a prediction of your model? Is there a measurement we could make to confirm this? What do you propose?
It also has a moment of inertia, but over its 10 billion year lifetime, our sun will radiate 10^44 J-s of energy away.
J-s is not a unit of energy. Is your model full of incorrect units? If so, why do you think it is correct? Or do you only make basic mistakes with units here on sciforums?
All of the rotational and spin energies of the planetary system we have already discovered amounts to about 10^44 J-s.
How did you discover this? Please explain.
You're all very welcome indeed. Special thanks to Aristotle, Newton, Einstein, Stephen Weinberg, and Kip Thorne. Couldn't possibly have done it without all of them. Don't care a whit about the guy who created dynamite.
And thank you for a valuable contribution to this discussion.
