Neoclassical Physics and Quantum Gravity

Let’s discuss several posts from PBS Space Time discord by TheMessenger who is an enigmatic commentor and speaks in a stilted, assertive, repetitive, but dispassionate style, as if pasting up a rote brain dump of creative ideas. TheMessenger says he is conveying information imparted to him from his father and in translation, the statements come…

The anthropic principle, also known as the “observation selection effect”, is the hypothesis that there is a restrictive lower bound on how statistically probable our observations of the universe are, because observations could only happen in a universe capable of developing intelligent life. Proponents of the anthropic principle argue that it explains why this universe…

The Michelson-Morley experiment was misinterpreted due to a faulty assumption. The Michelson–Morley experiment was an attempt to detect the existence of the luminiferous aether, a supposed medium permeating space that was thought to be the carrier of light waves. The experiment was performed in 1887 by American physicists Albert A. Michelson and Edward W. Morley.…

The science of black holes will need major revisions for the NPQG era. The extremes of energy and density we call a black hole are most certainly a domain where structures are ephemeral and reactions dominate. The pre-NPQG theory of black holes is dominated by Einstein’s general relativity and extensions from that basis based on…

What can we deduce from the shape of the universe? The exact shape [of the universe] is still a matter of debate in physical cosmology, but experimental data from various independent sources (WMAP, BOOMERanG, and Planck for example) confirm that the universe is flat with only a 0.4% margin of error. Wikipedia There is an…

I have a vague intuition that supersymmetry may map to point charge theory very well. Their math works right? But they just haven’t found the particles. The cool thing about point charge theory is that the supersymmetric partners are plain as day right in front of us, on the inside of standard matter particles, but…

This is a brainstorming session foreshadowed in my recent post Assembling a Theory I’ll reference outreach material on the weak nuclear force and attempt to apply the latest advancement in the NPQG understanding of nature. I’ve long associated the personality charges with the weak force, but I had an amorphous complex path equation in mind…

What is the mechanism for radioactivity? Which forces come into play? Weak? Strong? Electomagnetic? Is radioactivity caused by structures absorbing an un-naturally large amount of energy and hence they are likely to shed that energy in photons or other particles that zing off and cause damage? Let’s look at the definition. Radioactive decay (also known…

Since returning from a month long vacation in Italy I have been gradually returning to figuring out nature in my conscious mind. I have two main competing lines of thought that I believe my subconscious was grinding away on all this time. First, exactly how does the potential field work with the path history of…

I’ve been on vacation for a month in Italy with little time for writing about nature. Perhaps that is good, because my sub and semi-conscious have been grinding on some ideas that are, as always, built on the shoulders of scientists — just not quite in the way they imagined. The following is speculative conjecture,…
