Photons and Static Electricity
Photons get polarized by magnetic fields. Faraday discovered this back in 1845 that, and it has been common knowledge ever since. However, no similar effect occurs when photons
Gamma Rays in Space
Space is full of gamma rays. Their sources include one off events such as supernovas, and repeating events such as pulsars. Our Sun is also a producer of gamma rays. As is the center of our galaxy, which has two…
Øye’s Fine-structure Constant
Conventional quantum physics tends to deal with physical phenomena in purely mathematical terms. Few make any attempt at explaining exactly what the various constants and variables used actually are. There's no well defined physical model behind the formulas in which…
Polarizing Filters
This post is in response to this YouTube video where polarizing filters are explained based on principles from conventional quantum mechanics. As we can see from the video, clear polarizing glass lets through a surprisingly large percentage of regular light,…
Origin of Prevailing Winds
Conventional theory on prevailing winds has terrestrial heating from solar radiation as the main driver. Secondly, we have Earth's rotation as an additional engine. However, this cannot explain why winds high up in our atmosphere are both stronger and more…
Solar Cycles
Planets move around the Sun like clockwork. The exact position of planets can be worked out for thousand of years. When it comes to predictability, there’s nothing quite like
Gravity as an Imbalance in the Electric Force
The aether appears to be having a come back in theoretical physics. In this recent paper, Musa D. Abdullah shows that a field model
Ice Age Equator
The equator during an ice age is unlikely to be where the equator is located during mild periods, such as the one we are currently experiencing. This is especially true if our planet is hollow. However, we don't have to…
The Aether as a Fluid
In the physics presented here we come to the early conclusion that there has to be an aether with a ready supply of low energy photons and neutrinos. This is needed in order to explain the sudden appearance and disappearance…
Dead Dinosaurs
It's a popular myth that oil and natural gas are the products of dead dinosaurs. However, the sheer quantity of hydrocarbons found in the depth of our planet is sufficient evidence to invalidate this hypothesis. Oil and gas doesn't come…
