  Administrivia: Rejected Post Procedure         


Author: FrediFizzx
Date: Sep 20, 2008 12:16

Please note that SPF has a unique procedure for appealing posts that
have been rejected by a moderator. If a poster receives a rejection
notice via email, they can send an email to all the moderators at
spf-admin@stump.algebra.com appealing the rejection. The moderators
will then discuss the reason for rejection and if any moderator thinks
the original post should be approved, an email will be sent to the
rejected poster informing them to resubmit the post. Sometimes, we
might also request minor modifications to the original post to make it
more acceptable.

However, if the poster is using a munged email address to avoid spam,
they will not get the rejection email message from our moderation
system. And we have no way of changing the email address in our
moderation software. If you are using a munged address, you can check
to see if your post is rejected at,

  Illusory velocities

The theory is done and I am finally into the section of the website
where I look at observational evidence. Two new pages

http://www.teleconnection.info/rqg/GalaxyRotationCurves

discusses the evidence for and against CDM and MOND, and compares to the
predictions of the teleconnection given in

  Slicing a 4-Dimensional Action         


Author: Ken Stahl
Date: Sep 20, 2008 00:00

Is there a mathematical technique for 'resolving' a 4-dimensional Action
into 4, 3+1 dimensional Actions? This would be something like 4 different
3+1 dimensional perspectives (slices) of the 4-dimensional Action.

Dear all,

Is there a relationship between knowledge and wisdom? And if yes,
which one?

Thank you very much, again!

  Force vs Newton's Law 2 and non-Cartesian coordinates         


Author: Peter
Date: Sep 19, 2008 13:40

Dear all,

There is an interesting discussion in another thread containing the
definition of force through Newton's Law 2 and how it might be
affected
by
the use of non-Cartesian coordinates. Because there are many other
issues in
that discussion, I would like to separate this one.

Let's return to Newton himself.

"The change in motion (momentum - P.) is proportional to the
impressed
(applied - P.) force and proceeds in the same direction as this force
acts."

Thus, for constant mass,

acceleration ||(parallel) force

Questions:
Is this parallelity bound to any kind of coordinate system?
Do we need a vector space to describe it, or is an affine space
sufficient?

  Quantum Weirdness         


Author: Oh No
Date: Sep 19, 2008 07:06

No interpretation of quantum theory would be complete without a
discussion of the famous paradoxes, Schrödinger's cat, EPR, etc. I had
postponed doing this as I wasn't sure where it was going to fit into my
site. I have included it now near the beginning, under Physical
Principles. This gives a non-mathematical overview, and describes the
way in which relational quantum gravity will resolve the issues. I'm
especially pleased with the natty diagram for Young's slits

  WG: Lorentz transformation => Minkowski geometry ?         


Author: Peter
Date: Sep 15, 2008 12:23

Dear all,

According to the idea of a friend (a physicist, too), the condition

v <= c

can be guaranteed not only in a hyperbolic geometry with angles, phi,
between vectors such, that

|v|/c = 1/cosh(phi)

(or the like), but also in a elliptic geometry with angles, alpha,
between vectors such, that

v/c = sin(alpha)

(or the like). However, v<=c is not the only feature of the Lorentz
transformation. For this, let me ask, is Minkowski's geometry a
necessary or a possible consequence of the Lorentz transformation?

Thank you very much in advance!

Peter

  Does Quantum Theory Predict Optical Rogue Waves?         


Author: Shubee
Date: Sep 11, 2008 11:44

Researchers at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and
Applied Science have succeeded in creating and capturing optical rogue
waves and have measured their statistical properties. They found that
these rogue waves obey "L-shaped" statistics.
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/12/071212201239.htm

Can this observation be accounted for directly from quantum mechanics?
How perfectly does quantum theory agree with the measured "L-shaped"
statistics of optical rogue waves?

Hi Charles, it was Sunday so I suppose pseudo

IMHO...
There is no such thing as "standard cosmology".
The Big Bang is conjecture, based on the desire
of humans to assign a mortality to the universe
in *mans own image* like orgasm to death, that's
the same thinking the pope used to screw Galileo
and scare Copernicus, by maintaining a universe
that can be sold to the un-washed masses via
selling cheap paperbacks.

Fred, I think you'll be interested in this part.
