if archi is propagandizing his pet theory and that theory includes
aspects which are clearly of an electromagnetic nature, archi -may-
want to shop it around where people who are all keen on electromagnetism
would catch wind of it, and so,
crossposting is tolerated for just that sort of reason.
archi's 'theory', -is- that quantum mechanics can be derived from the maxwell equations.
you are trying to be chief moderator in an unmoderated newsgroup and doing a poor job of it.
and below you say this:
# I don't mind intelligent cross posting.
so, why you're wasting time posting some blurb about how crossposting is bad form is not very "intelligent"
you like crossposting if it fits your opinion
of what is acceptable and 'intelligent'
but if someone else has a different opinon of acceptable and intelligent, you start pissing and moaning and whining about how it's abusively off topic.

now i ask you, -who- _really_ looks like the "self absorbed egotist?"
isn't it really =you= who looks like a "self absorbed egotist"
in that you think that you and you alone are able to decide what
is on topic in electromag whereas archi simply minds his own business and quietly posts his babblings where he thinks they are topical?
yes, -you- look like the self absorbed egotists and archi does not.

-maybe- archi thinks that spinning charged particles
generate a magnetic field of sorts.

so, you deny that the so-called "Standard Model" concerns itself with electromagnetic behaviors -of- particles
and if archi wants to yammer about particles and their electromagnetic behavior in a set of usenet newsgroups, archi can do so even if not each and every post is explicittly and narrowly focused on the aspects of electromagnetism that strike -your- fancy.
you are still wrong to flag archi's posts for abuse as none of them fit the criteria for abuse as set out -by- googlegroups.

this must be -someone- who shall remain nameless, being a "self absorbed egotist" again.
what would you call someone who takes it upon itself
to make topicallity decisions for other people
in an unmoderated usenet newsgroup?

complaining is fine, but some people suggest that you complain in
private by email
and removing posts from an archive is not a complaint that can ever be
reconciled
it's just one sided coercion
and archi's posts -do- have mathematical information even if you don't see formulae.
do you even know what symmettry and group theory -are-?

archi, you have a point, and even if it's at the top of your head, you could conceivably
have over a thousand people who read your posts religiously.
that i don't know, and neither do i know if googlegroups has a 'lock' mode
but i don't see one .
now, brace yourself, as this may just destroy my credibility...but
i do not have an iphone
i do actually have a CB radio stashed in the corner somewhere but,
i never did manage to hook it in to my car those many years ago,
so, it sits collecting dust, althouygh i did manage to plug it
in to a train set AC to DC transformer, so, i have picked up
radio signals from a passing trucker once or twice, but
never did get around to using it to avoid speed traps, and anyway, i drive really slowly, cuz that's the law.
oh, why does the iphone give you the most headaches when trying to see
www?
it probably just doesn't have the capacity it itself to carry out
memory intensive tasks and is mainly a receiver and when it has to cut corners it jettisons anything heavier than a than a twig.
but, what i'd still like to know, is
how do you propose to assign an integral spin quantum state
see, you speak of spin states orbital population
and these spin states and orbital populations are
best described -by- an integral electron and not by
any sort of dust cloud.
some of this next bit is a little scattered...
no, -not- like a so-called electron dust cloud...
the "electron cloud" -is- a descriptive -device-
descriptive -of- the =probability density=
where the =probability density= is a function of the
-probability- of finding one electron in a given spacial region.
the -reason- that some people show this as a cloud of dots is
that the harmonic orbitals give us only upwards of 90% certainty of finding the electron and so, the closed space images are not,
strictly speaking, the truest picture of what is actually going on.
part of this is due to the fact that an "infinite series" is integrated only up to two or three terms and the successive terms are truncated and left off and not integrated.
this is considered "ok" because the first two or three terms of the infinite series take the lion's share of the probability and the remaining terms quickly diminish to a negligible state.
it has ZERO to do with any idea of smashing an electron to
smithereenies and imagining the smashed up electron actually forms a dust cloud around the nucleus.
i'm certainly glad that you do -not- think that the "electron cloud"
is actually a myriad of electrons surrounding a nucleus
but neither is it representative of a smashed electron.
it is...now get this,
it, the "electron cloud," is only a descriptive -device-
and it is descriptive of,...the =probability density=
electron has a probability of being not in a specific spot,
but a specific spacial -region-
as far as what -i- think about an "electron"
an electron could be a phantom
that is solely descriptive of force field interactions
and some mathematical models "work" which attest to its,
the electrons, "reality"
see, and what you are suggesting is that, the electronic orbitals
are really spacial regions with electronic force behaviors spread
out along the entire region and that there really is no electron
to speak of at all.
-not- that there is some sort of disintegrated ball
scattered throughout such a spacial region, with some
unknwoable elctronic charge associate with each
shattered and scattered fragment.
and, the large objects which make up galaxies and stars and galaxie clusters are operating in a gravitational field and the electronic interactions are negligible and the chemical atomic forces are electronic and the gravitational effect is negligible and you have yet to show me how gravitational fields align in discrete energy levels and not a continuous spectrum.
any "cloud" is only a -portrayal- of
the =probability density= associated with said electronic state.
it is a representation of a =probability density= and -not- a representation of a -number- of electrons
actually inhabitting electronic orbitals.
these spacial regions are solutions to the angular momentum harmonics of the hydrogen/like shroedinger equation
there is no =cloud= of electrons inhabittting
-any- electronic orbital.
there are two at most inhabitting the s orbitals the three p orbitals
the 5 d orbitals... etc f g h
you like to mention on occasion, the "aufbau" principle of ordering
but this concerns that they go in
one at a time and then double up.
usually you may see these harmonics orbitals
with a spherical shape for the s orbitals
three dumbbell shapes for the p orbitals one aligned with each axis and a series
of sort of like clover shapes for the ds with one sort of having a torus shape around the center.
-sometimes- they don't show solid color representation,
but a hazy looking cloudy apearance but this in no way
suggests that an gigantic number of electrons may
inhabit -any- electronic orbital,
so, your simile;
"whole entire Universe is just one big atom
where dots of the electron-dot-cloud are galaxies"
is simply well short of even metaphorical exactitude.
if you are looking at a =picture= of the electronic orbitals
and someone has represented these orbitals as dot-clouds and
-you- are drawing the conclusion that there are actually a cloud of electrons inhabitting a given orbital, you have tricked your self.
but, i find this difficult to believe.
then say "psi" because electron dot cloud
is a reprsentation of the...=probability density= associated with the given discrete energy levels
this is because the location is...probabalistic
i'm sure you -must- realize this, but you seem
to like carrying on this charade for some strange reason.
> In the Atom Totality theory, I push the dot cloud interpretation to
> its final resting point-- the universe must be an atom itself.
well then there now, your universe does not represent
a similitude to -any- of the hydrogenlike wavefunctions.
these waveforms are discrete energy levels and galaxies
are not arranged in this manner around any central
universal location.
show me the central nucleus of the universe
show me how galaxy's charge densities
perturb the locations of each other
show me how any of these galaxies behave as
a "rigid rotor" attached to this central
nuclear-like region of the universe.
show me how any of these galaxies are behaving as harmonic oscillators with this central nuclear region of the universe.
short of anything like these, your universal atom theory
is just another cosmical imaginary meandering.
the -behaviors- are not at all similar.
Bohr theory which actually does have a single electron
orbitting a nucleus in a manner somewhat like that of
planetary motion, fails outside of this single case.
admit it, Archimedes, you metaphor is wholly unworkable
as a true representation of any actual reality.
our solar system doesn't even behave in a manner
consistent with the wave forms of the hydrogenlike atom.
there is no cloud of elctons orbitting any nucleus.
there is a region of =probability density=
which is -portrayed= by some as a cloud but which
does -not- even begin to sugget that a cloud of
electrons actually inhabit a given
electronic orbital.
-you- are making it sound as if there are trillions of electrons inhabitting a -single- orbital
when it is strictly -impossible- some say, "forbidden"
for more that -two- to inhabit a given elecronic orbital
i say again, -please- change your 'sig file.
it is misleading.
but, buy all means, if accuracy is not
your main concern, then keep on making
this allusion.
there is never any real moment when an electron
is a smashed cloud of 10^40 tiny pieces
we cannot successfully predict position and momentum of such particles simultaneously.
you don't seem to be implying the the nucleus
is ever considered as an exploded dust cloud of minutia
so, think about why you don't tell me that the nucleus
of an atom is dispersed over space.
do you suspect that it is because we have such a greater idea of where it is?
i bet you can see how frightfully disturbing
it would be to model the nucleus as this sort of dust cloud.
you'd have bits of proton intermixed
in the electronic orbitals.
for some strange reason, the angular momentum harmonics seem to consider the proton/nucleus as fixed in the central region and the electron orbitting that region in a
-probabalistic- manner.
see, think about how your dust cloud would be when you have =2= electrons in a single orbital
you would undoubtably have some violation
of Pauli exclusion going on, with some oddball sharing of the 4 principle quantum numbers being an inevitable outcome.
etc.
at -best- you'd be considering the energetic
wave form pattern as a diffuse discrete packet.
-not- as if an electron was scattered in the breeze.
you might like to look into molecular orbital theory

there is no "electron dot cloud" there is a "probability density" which is oftentimes portrayed -as- a 'cloud' but that portrayal does -not- suggest that the hydrogen nucleus is surrounded by a myriad of myriad of electrons.

nonsense, any "cloud" is only a -portrayal- of the =probability density= associated with said electronic state.
it is a representation of a =probability density= and -not- a representation of a -number- of electrons actually inhabitting electronic orbitals.
these spacial regions are solutions to the angular momentum harmonics of the hydrogen/like shroedinger equation
there is no =cloud= of electrons inhabittting
-any- electronic orbital.
there are two at most inhabitting the s orbitals the three p orbitals the 5 d orbitals... etc f g h
you like to mention on occasion, the "aufbau" principle of ordering but this concerns that they go in one at a time and then double up.
usually you may see these harmonics orbitals with a spherical shape for the s orbitals
three dumbbell shapes for the p orbitals one aligned with each axis and a series of sort of like clover shapes for the ds with one sort of having a torus shape around the center.
-sometimes- they don't show solid color representation, but a hazy looking cloudy apearance but this in no way suggests that an gigantic number of electrons may inhabit -any- electronic orbital,
so, your simile;
"whole entire Universe is just one big atom where dots of the electron-dot-cloud are galaxies"
is simply well short of even metaphorical exactitude.
if you are looking at a =picture= of the electronic orbitals and someone has represented these orbitals as dot-clouds and -you- are drawing the conclusion that there are actually a cloud of electrons inhabitting a given orbital, you have tricked your self.
but, i find this difficult to believe.
> If you cannot say the "electron dot cloud" > then all you can say is psi.
then say "psi" because electron dot cloud is a reprsentation of the...=probability density= associated with the given discrete energy levels
this is because the location is...probabalistic
i'm sure you -must- realize this, but you seem to like carrying on this charade for some strange reason.
> In the Atom Totality theory, I push the dot cloud interpretation to > its final resting point-- the universe must be an atom itself.
well then there now, your universe does not represent a similitude to -any- of the hydrogenlike wavefunctions.
these waveforms are discrete energy levels and galaxies are not arranged in this manner around any central universal location.
show me the central nucleus of the universe
show me how galaxy's charge densities perturb the locations of each other
show me how any of these galaxies behave as a "rigid rotor" attached to this central nuclear-like region of the universe.
show me how any of these galaxies are behaving as harmonic oscillators with this central nuclear region of the universe.
short of anything like these, your universal atom theory
is just another cosmical imaginary meandering.
the -behaviors- are not at all similar.
> Now if Tim were around during the days of Galileo where Galileo said > the Earth moves and circles around the Sun, then Tim would have popped > up there also.
no, but Bohr theory which actually does have a single electron orbitting a nucleus in a manner somewhat like that of planetary motion, fails outside of this single case.
admit it, Archimedes, you metaphor is wholly unworkable as a true representation of any actual reality.
our solar system doesn't even behave in a manner consistent with the wave forms of the hydrogenlike atom.
> So, now, which of these two Tim's is the most ridiculous Tim? Is the > Galileo Tim who thinks that Earth must be stationary and flat in order > for people not to fall off.
this does not resemble anything said by me here nor anywhere else that you wil acually be able to show. this representation exists only in your mind.
> Or the Tim of the psi interpretation who > thinks that electron dot clouds is some fairy tale explanation.
dood, there is no cloud of elctons orbitting any nucleus.
there is a region of =probability density=
which is -portrayed= by some as a cloud but which does -not- even begin to sugget that a cloud of electrons actually inhabit a given electronic orbital.
-you- are making it sound as if there are trillions of electrons inhabitting a -single- orbital
when it is strictly -impossible- some say, "forbidden" for more that -two- to inhabit a given elecronic orbital
i say again, -please- change your 'sig file.
it is misleading.
but, buy all means, if accuracy is not your main concern, then keep on making this allusion.
etc.

Re: electrons don't look like anything as they cannot be seen
- show quoted text -
the "electron cloud" -is- a descriptive -device-
descriptive -of- the =probability density=
where the =probability density= is a function of the -probability- of finding one electron in a given spacial region.
the -reason- that some people show this as a cloud of dots is that the harmonic orbitals give us only upwards of 90% certainty of finding the electron and so, the closed space images are not, strictly speaking, the truest picture of what is actually going on.
part of this is due to the fact that an "infinite series" is integrated only up to two or three terms and the successive terms are truncated and left off and not integrated.
this is considered "ok" because the first two or three terms of the infinite series take the lion's share of the probability and the remaining terms quickly diminish to a negligible state.
it has ZERO to do with any idea of smashing an electron to smithereenies and imagining the smashed up electron actually forms a dust cloud around the nucleus.
i'm certainly glad that you do -not- think that the "electron cloud"
is actually a myriad of electrons surrounding a nucleus
but neither is it representative of a smashed electron.
it is...now get this,
it, the "electron cloud," is only a descriptive -device-
and it is descriptive of,...the =probability density=
> So your mistake Tim, is that you think a electron is a tiny solid ball > that revolves around a nucleus. What the psi tells you is that the > electron has a probability of being in a specific spot.
not a specific spot, a specific spacial -region-
as far as what -i- think about an "electron"
an electron could be a phantom
that is solely descriptive of force field interactions
and some mathematical models "work" which attest to its,
the electrons, "reality"
see, and what you are suggesting is that, the electronic orbitals are really spacial regions with electronic force behaviors spread out along the entire region and that there really is no electron to speak of at all.
-not- that there is some sort of disintegrated ball scattered throughout such a spacial region, with some unknwoable elctronic charge associate with each shattered and scattered fragment.
and, the large objects which make up galaxies and stars and galaxie clusters are operating in a gravitational field and the electronic interactions are negligible and the chemical atomic forces are electronic and the gravitational effect is negligible and you have yet to show me how gravitational fields align in discrete energy levels and not a continuous spectrum.

"classical mechanics" simply does not work as the 'best explanation' when applied to teh behaviors of very small things, like electrons, and, so-called "quantum mechanics" was developed to provide a more correct explanation for phenomenon associated with very small objects and light.

My personal guess is that he encountered a diagram of the electron probability density in a cheap high school chemistry book with primitive printing techniques, where they represented high probability with lots of dots close together and low density with few dots. Kind of like old B/W newspaper photos made of dots, except newspaper photos use bigger/smaller dots for dark/light and not more/fewer dots. (I have seen such chemistry books)
He just took the diagram (way) too literally.

if people weren't going to archive usenet,
i wouldn't care past tomorrow
but, people have taken it upon themselves to archive usenet
and it would be nice to know that said archive wasn't being tampered with because a tampered with archive doesn't do much good if someone wants to run up on me in twenty years and say;
"ay, tim, twenty years ago you said -this-, what say ye now?"
and then, i gotta look through my own -private- archive
to see whether or not i actually did, in fact, say "this"
cuz it could have been tampered with...
it matters little if that will never likely happen...
but, i don't actually like being flagged for abuse -now- -just- because i side with archi, a person for whom you have this vendetta...
and then you'll piss and moan when things turn sour for -you-
and -i- get to be labeled a "bad guy" ....again
well, you have difficulty convincing -me- of -that-

let's say you compose an article for a particular newsgroup. When the article is finished, your newsreader will send it to your news server. Some time later, from a few minutes to a few hours, your news server will connect to another news server. At that time, your server will send a copy of your article to the other server. At the same time, the other server will pass on articles to your server. Eventually, the other server will connect to a third server and send it a copy of your article. Most news servers connect to only one or two other computers. But some news servers act as switching points by connecting to many other servers. When your article hits one of these major servers, it will fan out quickly to many different locations.
In this way, new articles are passed from one server to another, until they are PROPAGATED around the world. (Each article has a unique identification number so a server doesn't get more than one copy of the same article.) The system is designed so well that — although there is no central server and no one in charge — a new article will be distributed throughout most of the Internet within a day or two (and often much faster).
Google is one of many news servers and it archives posts that are too old for others to retain, something that was previously done by AT&T, IIRC.
Google has mapped the world, but the world is far bigger than
Google. The territory is always bigger than the map.
If you want to research this “flag for abuse” it might be a good
idea not to jump to conclusions about Google and assign blame

and why preytell does one think i said;
"regards to captain dunsel?"
be cuz, though this thing may have harmful uses
it's really quite use less and does nothing in the over all sense
and posts still appear...somewhere and they all live happily ever after
so, -i- certainly haven't been 'hurt' and neither has archi...really
i'm -trying- to get that through to the people
who keep flagging usenet posts that appear on googlegroups as abusive.
you're wasting your bloody time on some toy trick that may make you 'feel' 'good' for a matter of moments
and then, tomorrow, archi is back on his couch, posting away and you've done =NOTHING= to disturb this.
and the posts don't even disappear cuz google drags
its feet for years to ever actually investigate anything
=NOTHING= has been accomplished....
-i- just felt like posting and so, i did...
simple as that.
so, at least -i- got -my- soothing relaxation from posting ...
and all the abuse flags in the world won't change that...
> and all the abuse flags in the world won't change that...
the onlyest thing that concerns me, a slight bit,
is that google seems to be mistaking its usenet archive
for googlegroups and the two are non-identical.
i wouldn't care if a million people set up googlegroups and moderated them fastidiously and saw to it that nothing that bothered them ever appeared in their little worlds.
not a bit would this bother me.
but, usenet is -not- googlegroups and
in large part usenet is not moderated.
and if you look at the config groups, they seem to be phasing out moderated usenet entirely simply becauise it's stoopid...
etc.etc.etc.
i mean, talk about a fool's game...
trying to lock down order on uselessnet
you'll end up putting up with things from your 'friends' that you won't put up with in anyone else
have three sets of laws and claim there
is some sort of 'charter' being obeyed.
so, if this is an "evolving" society
it sure seems to find its way back in to the exact same pitfalls over and over and over again and no real gradual change is ever noted.

Fine. But in my judgement, many of his posts contain too great a ratio
of particle physics/chemistry/maths to electromagnetism to be of use
in sci.physics.electromag, and that's why I flag them. He can easily
cut and paste the sections on particle physics to that group, and the
electromag stuff over here. But of course he has no intention of doing
that.

The evidence is that I'm prepared to discuss whether or not it's fair
to flag Archie's posts, as I did on July 14th:
Of course, Archie didn't participate in the discussion. And neither
did you for that matter, which isn't surprising because you're not a
regular in sci.physics.electromag, are you?

Well, actually no, which is why I asked for a discussion on the
subject in July, and you weren't here because you're not a regular
here.

Are you Pythagoras Uranium?
I'm assuming it was you who decided to post 20 of Archie's precious
posts in sci.physics.electromag. And then didn't bother to reply to
one of my questions there. Of course, it might not be you in which
case I'm wrong and I apologise for jumping to the wrong conclusion.
The other possibility is that it was indeed you and you have no
interest whatsoever in participating in sci.physics.electromag, yet
you decided to dump on it.
>and why you keep posting in to a thread

Because the original thread was "charge is geometry and spin is
what?", and I gave my reasons for why I don't think it belongs in
sci.physics.electromag. You then change the subject to a troll: "your
slip is showing", and end up poisoning the other newsgroups with a
subject no one else wants to really see.

You're competent as a chemist and well capable of reading and
understanding what he posted, which has nothing to do with spinning
charge. He thinks spin is connected with geometry. Face it, it has
nothing to do with electromagnetism, and you've shown yourself as a
dishonest, closed minded bigot.

i just happen to have an earlier copy of halliday and resnick
and the way they describe this "probability" is that a
particulate electron in the hydrogen atom is simply,
more "likely to be" found at or around the "Bohr radius"
and not that it is definitely =there=.
teh "interpretation" of psi is this statistical 'maybe'
as opposed to an 'exact' location.
it's a matter of the precision of knowledge
that may be had for a single particulate.
the electron -is- a single hard body whose position and momentum
are statistical probability patterns, and not that an electron exists as a hard ball sometimes and as 10^40 slivers at any other time.

no, your pals halliday and resmnick don't "interpret the electron"
they =interpret= the meaning of psi and psi squared, and that
interpretation reveals that a statistical understanding of the electron's whereabouts in reality is the best we can hope for.

you'd be claiming that you could solve the position and momentum for these slivered pieces of electrons when you certainly cannot
solve this for an electron in it's entirety.
you'd be saying, "at such and such a point, this -sliver-
is moving with such and such a simulataneous, -knowable-
position and momentum" and -then- turn around and tell
me that you -cannot- know these same facts
for a solid ball electron.
your "interpretation" takes a problem that is unsolvable
for a single entire electron, and makes it solvable for
the smaller fractional -pieces- of that same electron.
you'd think that this was -obviously- erroneous...
and i dare say, that halliday and resnick are not
responsible for this "interpretation" of yours.
did you ever hear anyone say that a bowling ball's motion would have a measurable wavelength if you
could get a grating to accomodate the value?
this is saying that a solid bowling ball, already should -have- an associated wavelength and not that the same bowling ball, suddenly -behaves- as if it were an ethereal wave pattern
under cetrainconditions, whereupon, it returns to it's bowling ball condition after midnight.

trouble is, you can -see- precisely where these dots are and
where these dots are going and that no such "probability" is associated with their position and momentum.
so, once again, if you claim that the -electron- behaves
as a mass of 10^40 slivers, each of whose positions and momenta,
-can be- known simultaneously, you are taking a much more difficult problem and sayingit is easier to solve for the unsolvable nature of the ball type electron.
you'd be saying that, though we cannot know the position
and momentum of a ball electron simultaneously, you -can- know these same phenomenon for the fractured
-pieces- of a ball electron.
and, isn't this what you are saying?
and, isn't this "interpretation" self contradictory?

Bohr actually solved an -orbit- for a single electron
in the hydrogen atom trouble is, that this falls apart
as we leave the 1s state.

the thread =clearly= shows that the intent of the abuse flagging is =not= topicallity
but a personal vendetta against archi
and one to which is maintain my disagreement.
if topicallity were at issue
the chit chat at the end would have been flagged, it was not.
this is just plain flat out wrong.
you see all of archi's posts flagged as abusive
and none of mine are so flagged even though arcghi is replying -to- -me-
and posts at the bottom of the thread that have nothing to do with the topic even, are not flagged as abusive
but -only- archi's posts.
if that's not just plain wrong,
i don't know what else to call it.
albeit, the mad post flagger has now taken to flagging my posts as well
so, this thread will likely get flagged soon anyway

I didn't flag this one, someone else did, and I don't blame them given
that he cross-posted this to sci.chem and sci.math.
that is part of the problem, in that it
does not seem to matter how one describes
coded instruction sets, be they tools in
a box or the conceptions of mind, to
initiate operation is a characteristic
of conscious intent.

how many ways can chemicals be assembled

if non-specific make-up can be shown
for specific function, then similar
make-up becomes a significant datum.
if similar function requires similar make-up,
then similar make-up is of no real significance.
it seems as if specific function
demands specific make-up.
that creatures that have outward appearing
similarities are also similar on the
molecular level is to be expected.
if one could show two creatures which were
very similar in appearance and function and
yet markedly different on the molecular level
this would be somewhat more significant.
still not an evidence that either could have
arisen by random happenstance, however.
oh, and as far as this monkey business,
apprently one would have to suggest
a rather -immediate- speciation followed
