After 12 years of my passing out of school I still want to know whats the correct description of light. Bye Sanny the botched-up 1887 M-M experiment seemed to rule out ether... Einstein got around 'that' dilemma by supposing that light could be either a wave or photons. But as with nearly everything Einstein supposed, he was wrong. (Brownian Motion is the lone exception -and that was actually a no-brainer.) I am surprised to see that "NoEinstein" like most people, has been conditioned by the mass media, and the Einstein Cult to give Einstein credit/debit for the work of other folks. The credit/debit for wave-particle duality belongs to de Broglie, not to Einstein. wave length = unit of action / momentum Although the Einstein Cult tries to credit Einstein for de Broglie's theory, and claim that he promoted de Broglie and the idea, the fact of the matter is that Einstein did not comprehend nor appreciate the enormous impact that de Broglie's work would have on physics, as Bohr and his associates, most physicists, and the Nobel Prize committee did. Note that de Broglie's theory was presented in his 1924 doctoral thesis, and he received the Nobel Prize in Physics for it in 1929, the shortest time in history. In other words, Bohr, most of the leading physicists, and the Nobel Prize Committee, **immediately** recognized the importance of de Broglie's theory, while Einstein and a few cultists persisted in fighting it, and the Quantum Mechanics" that it inspired, for many years. ( Google EPR experiment) It is also interesting to see that the Einstein Cult worked hard "Revising" history and physics, and conditioning the masses to think that the wave-particle duality theory of matter was based on Einstein's corruption of Planck's quantum of action work of 1901, for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1918. Note that although Einstein corrupted Planck's quantum of action, and has sent physics into a one hundred year cul de sac, the Einstein Cult has managed to con most people into thinking that energy, rather than action is quanta. It does not take a system engineer to comprehend that measured energy is affect by relative velocity, whereas quanta of action is NOT. As can be seen Planck clearly pointed out in his Nobel Prize lecture that ACTION was quanta. http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/p...k-lecture.html "When I look back to the time, already twenty years ago, when the concept and magnitude of the physical quantum of action began, for the first time, to unfold from the mass of experimental facts.." "The explanation of the second universal constant of the radiation law was not so easy. Because it represents the product of energy and time (according to the first calculation it was 6.55 x 10-27 erg sec), I described it as the elementary quantum of action." ( I might point out that the real unit of quanta is actually neither energy, nor action, but is the "First Radiation Constant", Action (The "Second Radiation Constant"), does not take the Hubble Effect into account.) To answer Sanny question: "What is light?" The universe is a sea of standing waves, and matter are antinodes in that sea. A so-called photon is simply an electron event that involves one quantum of action. A cause event is a rotary (Spin) event that occurs at some anti-node in the sea of standing waves, and propagated much like gear motion is propagated until it finds a standing wave that has an impedance of 377 ohms, at which point it becomes an effect and terminates. To make my point, consider that the maximum amount of action (Hence Power/energy) is transferred when the source (Cause) impedance equals the load (Effect) impedance. At the one quantum unit level, the maximum amount of action equals the minimum amount of action, ONE unit of Planck's Constant. Thus to transfer ONE unit of action from a cause anti-node to an effect anti-node, there must be a 377 ohm path between them. Otherwise you get a reflection, and no cause and no effect occurs. "Light" is the statistical expression for sets of quanta of action that can be detected by human eyes. Crackpotter! How you doin'? BTW, this mess makes no sense at all. -- "Classic erroneous presupposition." -- David Tholen |

Bye Sanny Extreme Discussions at:http://www.getclub.com/Discussion.php Perhaps you'll become the first to know the answer, because Einstein didn't have a clue. I might care to rethink of those photons we see and of all those photons we can't see as simply slow moving gravitons, or perhaps as somewhat quantum string like items. Of course, this still doesn't tell us specifically as to "what is light". Is there even any such thing as an original photon, or is each and every available photon merely a secondary/recoil result of gravitons interacting with other gravitons, or of gravitons interacting with mass? Pure energy seems to create photons, but without available gravitons it doesn't hardly matter, does it. . -BradGuth I gota definition I like too... -- Paul R. Mays "I Believe in Nothing, I Know, I think I Know or I Do Not Know I Never Believe... For to Believe is a Religious Incantation" I like your interpretation as much as that one provided by '"dlzc". However, if gravity/gravitons didn't exist, neither would the quantum string like photon. In other words, without the spin of atoms, we got nothing. . -BradGuth Well my interpretation Explains why there no need for gravitons to denote the Causation of Gravity, What specifically light is and why its detectable as a Wave or Little ball of stuff (Photon), Why its velocity will always be independent of source or target, and seemingly a constant.. Yet allows all existing physical rules to remain valid to a Intrinsically Biased observer. -- Paul R. Mays "I Believe in Nothing, I Know, I think I Know or I Do Not Know I Never Believe... For to Believe is a Religious Incantation" Is this "intrinsically biased observer" ever allowed to use good old deductive formulated logic? How about allowing for an intrinsic biased form of observationology, meaning the deductive interpreting of pixels as being those patterns of whatever's perfectly natural as opposed to what's artificial/ intelligent looking. .. - Brad Guth |

Louis de Broglie says
the wavelength of my human body is less than 10^-35 meters; but that's a metaphysical ( i.e. unmeasurable / unusable ) length. Detecting light as a particle or a wave depends on how coherent ( i.e. how predictable ) it is. For example, given an ideal laser showing a diffraction pattern in the famous double-slit experiment: A. The frequency ( and energy ) is fully predictable; i.e. it's Fully a wave. B. You can't detect ( not even in theory ) which of the two slits it might've passed through; i.e. it's Not a particle. Semi-coherent ( i.e. semi-predictable ) light is detectable as a semi-particle, semi-wave. Randomness is ignorance; it exists only in the mind. No matter what else is or isn't known, metaphysically, we “ know ” the cosmos is fully causal. Statistics is merely semi-random, not fully random; For example: A. A roll of the dice. B. Where I might be 24 hours from now. C. Brownian motion and D. Bose-Einstein condensates. |

That's very interesting, because some physicists are saying that physical things are "caused" to exist when they are observed into existence by an observer. If one "observes" randomness, or behaviour which satisfies the various assumptions of probability theory, then can we not also say that this "randomness" was _likewise_ "observed into existence" ? And not merely an artifact of the imagination ??? Perhaps you can explain why it should be confined to the mind and not the physical world. |
