It is a fact, that because of Lorentz's (Fitzgerald's) supposed 'contractions',
it is a feature of LET that any observer moving through the aether will always
MEASURE the OW speed of light as being c.
Einstein's master stroke was to turn the whole theory back to front. He BEGAN
with the idea of CONSTANT MEASURED OWLS as a postulate. Thus, it seemingly
didn't matter if an aether existed or not, particulalry after he concocted his
outlandish definition of clock synchronisation, (which just happens to be
correct according to the Ballistic theory of light).
Einstein plodded his way backwards and ended up formulating exactly the same
mathematical theory that Lorentz had previously produced. ..although his
'contractions were observational rather than physical.
The problem was, in Einstein's case, there was NO physical connection with the
real world. If one actually wants to delve more deeply into any of the claims
of relativity one must resort to the existence of an aether, which of course is
what Einstein believed in himself.
For instance if one asks, "why is OWLS always SUPPOSEDLY measuresd as being
'c'?, the answer is, "BECAUSE AN ABSOLUTE AETHER EXISTS AND THE LTs
APPLY".....OR, "how can light from differently moving sources end up travelling
through space at the same speed?", the answer is, "BECAUSE THERE IS AN ABSOLUTE
AETHER THAT DETERMINES LIGHT SPEED".
Another is, "how can contractions that are merely observational, become real
physical effects?". Again, the answer is "there has to be an absolute reference
frame".
There are no other answers.
Even his velocity addition equation is a direct consequence of LET concepts.
Einstein was a huckster and a plagiariser and achieved fame through his
deviousness. In reality, he produced absolutely nothing that was either novel
or was to ultimately advance the cause of physics.

Yea right - the verdict on you however is far more certain - and it is not
flattering.

This will be amusing, I gurantee it.
Henri has no understanding of relativity or the history of physics, so
anything he says on the matter will always be wrong and will probably
be funny as hell.

Here we go. Henri now starts to babble about one-way light speed even
though one way light speed is the same as two way light speed in LET
and SR.

Now Henri starts to mangle the development of relativity because he
doesn't understand how or why it was developed.
Einstein didn't develop SR based on "constant measured OWLS", no matter
how many times Henri asserts that he did. Henri also foolishly believes
his Galilean method of synchornization (as best as I can tell, Henri
never actually says anything concrete about his theory) is the same as
the SR/LET version. Which is asinine because his "Ballistic" theory is
Galileian with absolute time which is manifestly different from special
relativity.

Of course Henri can't actually support this wild supposition about how
Einstein developed SR. Henri also seems to not understand exactly what
the contractions in SR mean, which is par for the course.

Fascinating!
Time and again folks on this newsgroup have shown how SR accurately
represents reality, and Henri's only argument is that the experiments
were faked. When I have asked Henri to do some experiments himself, he
refuses.
I am also extremely amused that Henri asserts Einstein believed in an
aether, even though it is documented that Einstein did NOT believe in
the aether. Then again, facts never really did mean much to Henri.

The cognitive dissonance required to maintiain this viewpoint must be
staggering. One one hand, Henri completely dismisses any predictive

predicts what relativity predicts.

Of course Henri fails to take into account nobody has actually found

Henri, as usual, doesn't understand that SR and LET have the same
mathematics even though they are philosophically different.

Of course Henri's obcession with not understanding relativity blinds
him to Einstein's contributions to quantum theory, namely the actual
development of quantum mechanics plus his contributions via
understanding the photoelectic effect. Plus Einstein's work in
statistical mechanics.

Now that the SRian baboon brigade has made its usual unintelligible
contribution, can we have some sensible discussion?
Einstein's theory was nothing more than LET in disguise.
Cunt, the physics has long progressed past special relativity, learn
how to deny GR, you are "passee" (and fully irrelevant)
The Lorentz-Fitgerald contraction was far from satisfactory, a quick rush
job
like your worbits. You are so fucked up its incredible.
Your reading differs from mine; apparently Henri correctly points out that
many textbooks ("official") don't understand that either.
Probably you are too biased against Henry's writings to notice the
statements that aren't wrong. But regretfully your bias is not without
reason, see further.

Is there any essential difference in what you state and what he states? I
don't think so. However, I see the shadow of a grave misunderstanding in the
above statement by Henri. Let's read on...

Here I can't but agree with Eric: without the "Einstein" clock
synchronization one won't obtain a measured "OW speed of light as being c"!

Regretfully some textbooks suggest so. Indeed there is no need for it as
some modern derivations demonstrate.
On that point both of you are sloppy, as if you don't know that "Einstein
believed in an aether" and "Einstein did NOT believe in the aether" are
both roughly correct.

You confuse logic with measurements. In the mainstream literature that logic
has been presented several times by different scientists and in none of
those instances have I seen it challenged in follow-up articles (using Web
of Science). I may have overlooked it of course, and would appreciate a
reference to such an article.

Henri apparently doesn't understand SR and his statement is a matter of
opinion. However, it's exactly the difference in interpretation that he put
forward, if I read it correctly.

There is nothing equivalent about the two.
SR is a trick that produces some numbers that agree with the reality. As a
model SR is completely useless.
LET on the otherhand is a step in the right direction towards formulating
an understanding about the universe.

I see your point, and I can agree that is one way to describe what AE
actually did with the luminous ether theory. If by "outlandish
definition"
you refer to "moving clocks run slow", I must again agree that is an
apt
description of what he meant, but it was outlandish even more so in
that
it appears to be true.

Both works are in Theoretical Physics, which disdains empirical

Only if you are working with the reality of the universe does one have
to
accept an ether. If you are adding 2x2, no ether is required, since
math
is an imaginary tool we use to compare imaginary or real objects.
There
is no such thing as a "2" in existence in the universe, other than as
it exits
in our heads. There are, however, two apples and two oranges, which
can be both real and imaginary, depending on which is our choice.
On that basis, I cannot agree that it is correct to say there is no
physical
connection between SR and reality. SR is not representative of
reality,
true, but it is an excellent tool for us. By necessity, all our tools
have a
connection to reality - that cannot be avoided if they are to be valid
tools
for us to use. To say 2x2=4 is almost meaningless in itself until and
unless it is ultimately in reference to something real. As a tool for
the
teaching of math, we could say it is not meaningless because ultimately
it
will be used to count real objects.
After all that, I must say, however, that I agree we cannot refer to
the real
universe without including an ether. My model suggests one that does
not
conflict with any known observed effects but instead explains reality
in a
better way than some in place as "official verdicts" by sci.ngs
posters.

you may be right in saying all that you say above about him, we are the

My bias has a historical anchor in reality. Henri occasionally makes a

Henri focuses on one-way light speed for no particular reason. My
understanding of LET may be shaky, but I'm certain what I said is true
in SR.

I'm aware of Einstein's beliefs on the matter. I had to think for a few
minutes as to how to write the paragraph above. I wanted to say
Einstein did not believe in the 19th century version of the aether as
Henri envisions, but he would simply distort it to say "ah-HA! Einstein
does believe in the aether!". It is my understanding that the aether
[aether or ether? I could never tell.] Einstein believed in was so
wildly different than from what is classically known as the aether that
it was doing a disservice by confusing hte issue.

I'm not sure what you are asking. Are you saying you want an example of
folks looking for the aether? If so, I have something in mind. I did
make that statement secure in the knowledge that people have been
looking *really really hard*, and are much more qualified than Henri
and his ilk [and myself, for that matter].

Remember what I said about cognitive dissonance?
Henri seems to view LET as "acceptable" and SR as "unacceptable". They
have wildly different philosophical bases, but make the same
predictions. Then again, my understanding of LET is on shaky ground. I
would love a decent reference that explains LET without being burdened
by the babbling of cranks.

Lorentz wasn't much interested in those issues but there are a few others.
Some papers by Ives and Builder explain that opinion rather well I think.
But what do you mean with a "decent" reference? JOSA, Austr.J.P., Phys.Rev.,
Nature, or what?

The reason for that decision is the later experimental confirmation of
SR predictions that Lorentz's ether theory does NOT predict.

I'm not sure I follow what you think the distinction is. Lorentz
posited a physical process which affected the inherent physical
properties of objects. Einstein asserted that these properties are what
we *measure*, and that there is no deeper (inherent)
observer-independent quality that these are expressions of.

Hi Henri: You've almost got it right. But the aether itself requires a
refrence frame to which it is absolutely stationary. That is the
absolute reference frame and has to be the center of the universe.

Wrong again. It isn't that now that you've gotten indoctrinated with

the time it came out it was indeed extremely unusual and bizarre.
Phuckwit Duck:
" I have to admit that I am demoralized at the moment.
I had hoped that we could fight ignorance with a proactive rather
than a reactive approach, but this is clearly the improper forum for
that. A quick survey of the length of threads initiated by or drifting
to nonsense compared to the length of threads based on sound thinking
reveals the true interest in the proposal.
While it would be a useful project to contribute to the FAQ, the
intent was to educate in the context of discussion, a virtual
"classroom" if you will. There's no point in contributing to a
reference that none of the "students" will read or attempt to learn
from. The intention was to focus on *exactly* what is wrong in
someone's thinking (which varies from person to person), set it
straight, and then make progress from there.
I had high hopes -- really -- that perhaps one misguided soul would
read something sensible and say, "Oh... Really?...Oh. I see I was
confused. OK, I get it now. Now what about...?" My head knew better,
my heart does not.

Androcles
If LT = Lorentz Transformation, then the theory you are describing is
not an aether theory. It is a coordinate transform mapping events from
one coordinate system to another. If you've got access to a good
library, read the last couple of chapters of "Fields of Force." It is
a nice historic account of the problem you are discussing.
Henri is taking the piss, you dumb cluck! Fuckin' hell, are you ever
wet behind the ears, spookfood!
Androcles
In your case, Androcles, it's pretty plain what's wrong with your
thinking. It's a pretty short trip following your thinking before you
run into something that's patently wrong.
Like how muons that are superluminal will leave the same amount of
energy in a scintillator regardless of their initial speed, and still
come out to be just under c by the time they leave the scintillator.
You say, "I don't know HOW it does that, but it's sure more believable
than time dilation." Apparently, to spit out something you thing is
hogwash, you'd be happy to swallow something from further down the

I'm used to how Henri argues and how he sets up future arguments.
Then again I might have misunderstood, it has been known to happen. But
since the probability of actually learning something releated to
physics from Henri is nil, I'm not too worried about it.

Well it is pretty bloody obvious to me that the MMX certainly did NOT prove
that there could not be at least a local EM reference frame...particularly when
Einstein used the same contraction idea that Lorentz invented.
If SR is correct then so must be LET. SR actually relies on an absolute
refernce frame

If you want an aether, you have to cope with the concept of a 'physical'

Quantitatively correct ones? No, there're not.

Sure there is. Neutral kaons exhibit the very same effects as charged
particles. Where the hell have you been?
Why?
Posting *your* theory is not the same as proving that GR is not an
accurate model of reality.
Asserting that "But mine makes more sense to me," is not a
demonstration that another model has failed to accurately represent
reality. Do you understand that?

SR says that if a clock or rod is sent into orbit, nothing actually happens to
the clock or rod. It then claims that the clocks and rods DO are observed to
change when measured by the original observer in the original frame and using
the original length and time standards.
So do they change Draper ...or do they not change?
If nothing is currently happening to something, can that ever imply that the
'something' is in a state if change?
I certainly haven't been filling my head with SRian propaganda put out by
relativists FOR relativists..

And who appointed me leader? You? No one else has.
And how do you judge scientific ability, Henri? By whether they are
original or by whether they are right?
PD
Really? What makes you say that?
Say you have a ruler that is expanding, with marks at regular
intervals, and observers parked at each of the marks.
An observer sitting at the mark "3" looks at the mark "4" and notices
that it is receding from him at 0.1 marks/day. The same observer looks
at the mark "6" and notices that it's receding from him at 0.3
marks/day. The same observer looks at the mark "12" and notices that
it's receding from him at 0.9 marks/day. This observer concludes that
the marks at 4, 6, and 12 were all at the very spot where he is sitting
10 days ago.
The observer sitting at the mark "4" looks at the mark "3" and notices
that it is receding from him at 0.1 marks/day. The same observer looks
at the mark "16" and notices that it is receding from him at 1.2
marks/day. The same observer looks at the mark "-3" and notices that it
is receding from him at 0.7 marks/day. This observer concludes that the
marks at 3, 16, and -3 were all at the very spot where he is sitting 10
days ago.
Likewise the observer sitting at the mark "12" looks at the mark "3"
and notices that it is receding from him at 0.9 marks/day. The same
observer looks at the mark at "4" and notices that it is receding at
0.8 marks/day. This observer concludes that the marks at 3 and 4 were
all at the very spot where he is sitting 10 days ago.
All of these observers agree completely on what happened 10 days ago.
They also all agree on the measured rate of expansion, 0.1
marks/day/mark. Now where is the "natural center" of that expansion
about which all the vector momenta of the observers add to zero?
(Henri hasn't read a whole lot, and as a result he hasn't thought a
whole lot, and as a result he is mistaken about a whole lot -- despite
having been born with a "scientific mind" with which to do a whole lot
more than he's actually done.)

Unfortuantely Androcles is fighting a rigged battle. He knows full well
that is idiocy has an advantage. He doesn't have to do experiments, be
logical, prove things are right or back up his ideas. He just needs to
continues beating his chest.
The only think heavyweight about him is the stone in his skull.
AE's conclusion that "moving clocks run slow" is the basis for my
model that carries forward that concept to my claim that time is a
property of matter and passes dependent of an object's motion.

That is too counterintuitive for me to agree with at this point. It is
too hard
for me to believe that physical objects will contract in different
frames. I
think that it is time that varies, creating that effect, but that it is
only an illusion
based on the time dilation effect. I have yet to figure out how that
occurs, but
I hope to do just that sooner or later.

Well, the principle of relativity is one, which is holding up still.
But I
agree there are alternative explanations for much of what has been
explained from the conclusions of SR. The tenet about relative
motion, which is IMO the basis of SR, is another great tool tool for
us, even though some have gotten carried away with what they have
concluded from that.

No, that's not a speed during a round-trip, that's the magnitude of the

See, you say muons slow down, and when I say you say it, you say I'm a
liar, you cunt. It's a pretty short trip following your thinking
before anyone runs into something that's patently wrong.
(Not that you've ever measured the speed of a muon before it's going
into a scintillator.) Anyway, the aurora are Cherenkov radiation, so clearly
particles entering atmosphere are superluminal.

Then perhaps you need a primer on the scientific method in general.
PD
Scientific objections are what is needed. (HH)
...and we are still waiting for them from you.
I'm still waiting for you to provide proof that general relativity is
not a valid model of gravitation. No, posting your "competing" model
does not count.
Obviously you can't read. The text below (a part of falling space theory)
contains only proofs, not anything about "my model".
A4
Albert Einstein's relativity theory brought many new ideas to gravity.
Einstein rejected Newton's view that gravity was a force. Einstein concluded
that space is not absolute (the ether), nor is time absolute, the same
everywhere. Einstein attempted to explain gravity as the curving of the
time-space by stating that time is the fourth dimension. According to the
theory, time passes at a different pace on the surface of the Earth than,
for example, at the distance of the Moon's orbit from the Earth, and as the
Moon orbits the Earth it actually moves forwards in a straight line.
A5
But what is the source of the pessimism that gravity can never be explained
by theory? In Newton's theory, objects attract each other, in Einstein's
theory, an object changes the space surrounding it so that the objects
appear to attract each other. But if there are no rubber bands between the
objects, and if we accept that gravity is, after all, not a force, a
contradiction arises. If the deviating motion of objects in a gravity field
is caused by a transmission mechanism that has so far remained unobserved -
the movement of particles or a wave motion - it could never explain the
special characteristic of gravity, that it is not a force. Objects should
move straight ahead in space and not revolve around each other. An external
force is needed to change this. But even if such a force existed, it could
not explain the true nature of gravity. However, the transmission mechanism
of gravity is continually being sought - almost certainly in vain. In
Einstein's theory, space curves, but why? This remains an abstraction.
A6
The only way out of the impasse and forwards is to demonstrate that, in
certain respects, relativity theory is incorrect. We must go back to the
beginning, the Michelson-Morley experiment at the start of the 20th century.
Prior to the experiment, it was generally believed that the Earth and other
celestial bodies move in the ether of space, and that the "ether wind"
caused by the movement could be measured from the surface of the Earth.
Though such a wind would have no effect on particles, it should be visible
as changes in the speed of light. Light should travel faster with the wind
than against or across it. The experiment was carried out using a local
source of light and an arrangement of mirrors, the light being diverted from
its direction of travel and its speed being measured in two directions at
right angles to each other. The result of the experiment was surprising - no
change in the speed of the light was observed. Therefore the ether does not
exist!
A7
If there is no ether, it means that the MM experiment could be carried out
on any celestial body and would always produce the same result. A body's own
motion in space with no ether is relative and is irrelevant in itself. But
Einstein made the further assumption that the speed of light is also in
general independent of the state of motion of the observer.
A8
Observations have shown that the universe appears to be expanding at nearly
the speed of light, i.e. that celestial bodies move relative to each other
at great speeds. But conditions on different celestial bodies are
independent of speed. Conclusions concerning the motion of one's own or
other celestial bodies can only be made on the basis of the red or blue
shift in the light emitted by other celestial bodies. But the examples in
relativity theory deal with travel in space as if one observer could move
while the other remains stationary. Generally, one moves at nearly the speed
of light while the other remains stationary. In practice, Einstein did not
fully understand the significance of the non-existence of ether.
A9
In relativity theory, the terms railway station and the surface of the Earth
are used to depict the stationary observer, while the one leaving the
station or the surface of the Earth is considered to be in motion. But in
ether-free space all movements are relative, and relativity theory does not
speak the truth. Using these examples, relativity theory attempts to
demonstrate that time would pass at different rates for a moving and a
stationary observer. But in ether-free space the observers only move apart
or towards each other. The situation is always symmetrical, and this fact
can only be denied through a mathematical lie.
A10
Relativity theory assumes the speed of light to be independent of the state
of motion of an object. This is impossible, for it is precisely from changes
in the speed of light that velocities and directions of movement can be
measured. Changes in velocity appear as red or blue shifts. Consider, for
example, airport radar measuring aeroplanes' movements, directions, and
speeds. Can anyone really believe that the radar signal always hits each
aircraft at the same speed, irrespective of the aircraft's own speed?
A11
In relativity theory, time has been made a varying quantity like weight and
distance. This assumption is still unsupported by any research result.
Relativity theory's most enthusiastic supporters believe that there should
be a mass of evidence - but there is none. There are only misunderstandings
of how an atomic clock operates (the effect of acceleration), and
misunderstandings of what objective research demands. In many cases,
attempts have been made to use the theory to prove itself.
A12
Despite the defects and errors of relativity theory it must be said that
there will never be another genius like Albert Einstein. The curvature of
space and the relation of mass to energy are magnificent discoveries,
besides many others. Perhaps relativity theory's greatest fault lies in
being too good. It has successfully stopped the development of theoretical
physics for decades.

I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT YOUR THEORY.
I was asking for *evidence* against general relativity, not competing

Yes indeed. It was subluminal before hitting the scintillator and
subluminal after hitting the scintillator. It slows an itty bit in the
scintillator, about 2 MeV/cm.

Really? This seems like a pretty common problem in basic physics
textbooks. Billy runs around a closed track and crosses the finish line
at the same point he started the race. What is his average *velocity*
during this race? Would you like a textbook reference for a problem
just like this one? I bet it even has an answer in the back of the
book.
Or do you want to dispute the Newtonian mechanics that is taught in
freshman physics books?
Wait, you're an ex-engineer aren't you? Didn't you have to pass this
class at some point?
You are a *self-proclaimed* physicist. This does not guarantee that you
can place yourself in the category of other physicists who do know
about these things.

You apparently do not understand what curved space is. An object under
the influence of gravity *does* move straight ahead in space -- in
*curved* space -- and a path in curved space can complete a closed
circuit, which we describe as revolution.

Not at all. All you've demonstrated is that you don't have the foggiest
idea what curved space is and what a straight line in curved space
looks like.
Failure to understand something is no reason to conclude that it is
incorrect.
The fact that you don't understand electron orbitals doesn't mean that
it's incorrect. The fact that you don't understand how an accelerator
works doesn't mean that it's incorrect.
It just means you're being lazy in trying to figure it out.

Henri, I've asked you some specific questions about physics, and all
you have to offer is potshots (and awfully weak ones at that).
Now, are you going to *demonstrate* that you have a scientific mind, or

That such an "aether hunt" is probably misdirected can be understood from
the article by Ives called " Genesis of the query "Is there an ether" ",
JOSA 43, no. 3, p.217, 1953), as well as from Builder's article "Ether and
Relativity", Australian J. Physics 11 (1958), p.279. Perhaps that Langevin's
1911 article "L'évolution de l'espace et du temps" (Scientia, X, p.31)
provides better general "pro-ether" arguments, but it's in French.
For a thorough explanation of what is here called "LET", you may find Ives'
article called "Derivation of the Lorentz transformations (Phil. Mag. 7,
vol.39, 1945 p.392) more useful. It shows how SRT naturally follows from
classical physics (Newton+ Maxwell) by relying on the conservation laws.

62 miles in 2.2 usec is faster than 299,792.4562 kilometers per second,
but I agree, nothing is faster than c = 0/0.

That's incorrect. It doesn't cover that ground in less than 2.2 usec in
our frame of reference, at least not that we measure. And in
ground-based muon beamlines, the muons definitely do not decay with a
lifetime less than 2.2 usec or even equal to 2.2 usec in our frame of
reference.

Yes, exactly. And yet you just told me there is "no velocity for a
round trip, asshole". But you just found one, asshole.
Now Billy runs around the same closed track at a speed of 8 m/s and
crosses the finish line at the same point he started the race. What is
his average *velocity* during this race, asshole?
It's been a pretty short trip to find out exactly where you are wrong,

Giancoli, 3rd edition. Look it up. Do you need a page reference, or can
you find it?
This is wrong. OWLS never been measured.
Of course it's been measured.
Now, you may object that it's not been measured using a distance
measured with sticks and two clocks at either end, but that's not the
only way to measure OWLS.
Deciding to measure it some way other than the way you want it to be
measured is probably a good decision.
PD
Harry, still peddling LET?
Still reading Ives? It will render you dumb . Wait.....you are already
dumb.
Virtually every measurement requires a theory in order to bridge the
gap which would otherwise exist between observations with conclusions,
and every theory is subject to validation. What's the theory for the
way in which OWLS is measured, and how has it been validated?
