The Structure of Light
The Structure of Light John-Erik Persson john.erik.persson@gmail.com Abstract This article describes the structure and behavior of light, without using the particle model. The most important problem The question regarding the structure of light is the most important problem in physics. The introduction of the wave theory seems to be unfinished, and all particle-based thinking is […]

pdf Paradoxes and Failures in Physics John-Erik Persson Budkavlevägen 5, 14 174 Segeltorp, Sweden john.erik.persson@gmail.com A world of paradoxes and questions Today theoretical physics is in a bad state. Physics is full of unanswered questions like: Why the wave or particle paradox? Why the twin paradox? Why quantum jumping? What are quanta of light? Why […]

Member http://www.naturalphilosophy.org//pdf//abstracts/abstracts_paperlink_7485.pdf john.erik.persson@gmail.com Forgotten Approximation–>Twin Paradox If light is moving with velocity c in a specific frame, and we search the velocity in another frame, moving with the velocity u in relation to the first frame, we get c–u in the new frame. We can use simple vector addition and state that light always moves […]

The Michelson Tragedy (PDF including diagram) The Michelson Tragedy john.erik.persson@gmail.com Abstract The Michelson-Morley tests, that were done in 1881 and 1887, are still questioned. So, we have reasons, even today, to discuss what does these experiments mean. The dispute between Michelson and Potier is discussed in this article. Michelson’s tests Michelson had a remarkable skill […]

A Scientific Dispute john.erik.persson@gmail.com (The link contains PDF doc with diagrams) Abstract This short article is about the debate between 1882 and 1887 regarding Michelson’s and Potier’s opinions about light behavior, in the experiments that Michelson did together with Morley. The unhappy result of this debate had a devastating effect for the development of physics. […]

This article explains how time dilation has been used to cover up for a mistake, that was introduced by Potier, when Einstein was a child. Potier did not observe that mirrors are transparent to the ether wind, and therefore the mirrors are controlling c only – and not c+v. Potier’s mistake Potier reduced Michelson’s prediction […]

A prejudice My interpretation of MMX includes a very small motion in transverse direction that can fool some people to regard the idea impossible. However, assuming the ether entrained by the Sun means that we must give the same capacity to the Earth. So, ether wind is only 10^-6 due to rotating Earth, in horizontal direction. […]

Many scientists have provided strong and correct evidences against time dilation. In this article the ambition is instead to find the first error, in a long chain of mistakes. It is demonstrated here, that a very early error was done by Stokes in his ‘correction’ to Michelson’s prediction for his experiments together with Morley (MMX). Stokes’ […]

August 21 this year will show a solar eclipse in US. This will be something to look at, and also a test of Eddington’s observation from 1919. However, this is not a certain indication about GRT, since it is not certain whether the effect is due to gravity or due to refraction by the corona. […]

The problems in ‘modern’ physics started already in connection with the transition from light particles to light waves. At that time light motion got a new description as a vector sum of ether wind and wave velocity. This provided a correct description of how light really moves. This motion, the beam direction, can be detected […]
