The Michelson-Morley question — and the ether
The Michelson-Morley Question – and the Ether John-Erik Persson https://www.researchgate.net/publication/341089697_The_Michelson-Morley_Question_-and_the_Ether john.erik.persson@gmail.com Abstract This article is analyzing the famous experiments, (MMX), that Michelson did together with Morley. These tests have produced confusing and paradoxical results, and have been debated for about 140 years. Questions regarding quantum jumping, quantization, gravity and entanglement are also discussed. Background The […]

COMMENTS ON THE MICHELSON-MORLEY PARADOX SOLVED By Justin Jacobs Nick Percival had asked me to comment on this article, and I think the blog is suitable for this purpose. I think that the paper contains many good arguments against the special theory of relativity. It is demonstrated that Einstein used mathematics as a magician and […]

John-Erik Persson Background https://www.researchgate.net/publication/340377778_How_Science_Became_Fiction Modern physics states that twins can become of different ages, if they have moved with very different speeds. The reason is that time is said to progress with different speeds for individuals in different states of motion. This is called time dilation. These ideas are in conflict with common sense, and […]
Continue Reading...Individual aging — science or fiction?
https://www.gsjournal.net/Science-Journals/Essays/View/8161 The idea of individual aging has been productive in science fiction – and caused a dead end in physics. This idea is an effect of time dilation and caused by Potier in 1882. He changed Michelson’s prediction based on constant wave vector, c, to constant wave magnitude, c, in the equipment frame in Michelson […]

john.erik.persson@gmail.com https://www.researchgate.net/publication/339602288_The_Third_Option Binary logic, excluding the middle, has produced binary computers, but also contributed to binary thinking in the western world, for instance in politics. An important example is the long, long debate regarding the ether. The question: is there a reference frame for the propagation of light? This question seems never to generate a […]
Continue Reading...Is the Ether Wind Decidable?
john.erik.persson@gmail.com Abstract An illusion of undecidability of an ether wind was the basis for establishing the theory of special relativity (SRT). The reason to that mistake was a wrong interpretation of light behavior in both arms in the Michelson and Morley’s tests (MMX), and also in the interpretation of stellar aberration. A deviation from the […]

Critical Thinkers? Do they exist? I have searched for them with mails and blog posts, but failed to see them. Critical thinkers should like to discuss with opponents, but I have found that members and directors in CNPS finish conversation when they see a great discrepancy in opinions, instead of regarding this as a reason […]

The Tragic History of Theoretical Physics PDF below https://www.researchgate.net/publication/338235999_The_Tragic_History_of_Theoretical_Physics John-Erik Persson, Budkavlevägen 5, 141 74 Segeltorp, Sweden john.erik.persson@gmail.com Abstract This article contains no mathematical concepts, since this article is primarily intended for non-scientists. The reason is that mainstream physicists are not likely to read dissident papers because they are deeply indoctrinated by the relativity dogma. […]

In the longitudinal arm: The assumption that transverse forces propagate as c+/-v should be followed by the same assumption regarding longitudinal forces. Therefore, the assumed effect is compensated and not observable. In the transverse arm: The assumption that the vector sum c+v is reflected by the distant mirror is wrong, since the mirror is transparent […]

No reactions from NPA or from CNPS means that I see a reason to repeat it. Conserved wave front in MMX In […]
