Crookes Radiometer wacky idea
| | Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 09:42 pm: | |
Wacky idea here, but what if Crookes Radiometer and Otheoscope is powered by a micro-micro 'black hole'?
CAUTION: This experiment may damage your radiometer.
 (interactive -Wiki)
A Crookes Radiometer being powered by...
Okay, that's a totally weird way to look at it, that a infinitesimal-micro-micro 'black hole' resulting from light bouncing around the glass bulb somehow self-cancels its lambda (per Axiomatic) to cause whatever ambient gases are there into a turmoil, and hence spin. (See earlier: SMBH post.)
Here's fallacy with that idea:
1. If the bulb is off round, then this shouldn't happen anyway, though it does.
2. The blades spin only in the direction away from black surface, with exception (4).
3. Total vacuum stops the spin, so must have some gas molecules to work.
4. If light heat stops and radiometer cools, the blades spin in opposite direction.
Which of these four fallacies kills the wacky idea? All of them? Maybe #4 is something to think about.
Okay, inspired by this paradox I did something really wacky, I put the Radiometer at a very low setting (20 secs) in a kitchen microwave oven. The blades immediately went into a fast spin, and the radiometer glowed like a bright fluorescent bulb, as if the gas inside was ionized.* It went out as the oven powered down, was hot to the touch, but undamaged; it still responded to incandescent light as usual. I then placed it in the frozen compartment of the fridge and it spun backwards. Pretty cool! 
I may be loony toons, but the old brain is still firing on its old IQ (post stroke, Dec. 2008), so why not have some fun? Any whacky ideas it can conjure up is not necessarily crazy, though they might be, but could be used creatively as free association. Here is how I read the above:
The fact that the gases inside the radiometer glowed when hit by microwaves leads me to think gas turned to hot plasma. This spinning plasma is exactly what I wanted to see, because at some point within the center of that round bulb, even if not totally spherical, there was an infinitesimal-micro center that fits the Axiomatic equation where all the ambient energy spinning around it is canceled out on a point. And that is significant. What should also be generated, though unable to measure it, is an axial discharge of positive charged energy, same as would be witnessed spat out the bipolar axis of a galactic black hole. Why is that significant? Because it represent power, both self-gravity power and electromagnetic power. And if power can be generated, it could also be used.
But this still leaves the question: Why is spin directed as it is, away from black side (2)? I don't know yet, will have to think on it some more. But this above wacky idea tells me that there is more at work than merely bouncing gas molecules off the darker surface of the blades. It may be a lot more than we presently understand. I read somewhere that calculations show there is not enough mass inside the partial vacuum to activate the blades at measured velocity, that other forces were at work, primarily the "thermal transpiration" principle. Also, per this:
quote: 3. A partial explanation is that gas molecules hitting the warmer side of the vane will pick up some of the heat, bouncing off the vane with increased speed. Giving the molecule this extra boost effectively means that a minute pressure is exerted on the vane. The imbalance of this effect between the warmer black side and the cooler silver side means the net pressure on the vane is equivalent to a push on the black side, and as a result the vanes spin round with the black side trailing. The problem with this idea is that while the faster moving molecules produce more force, they also do a better job of stopping other molecules from reaching the vane, so the net force on the vane should be exactly the same — the greater temperature causes a decrease in local density which results in the same force on both sides. Years after this explanation was dismissed, Albert Einstein showed that the two pressures do not cancel out exactly at the edges of the vanes because of the temperature difference there. The force predicted by Einstein would be enough to move the vanes, but not fast enough.
This does not have to be the real cause, if the infinitesimal-micro black hole is formed, since the extra-gravitic effect will create its own spin. Finding the other components, and how to use this, is the next great challenge. Can this "bottled energy" be amplified and used?
Note: A falsifiable test would be to have the blades in a square shaped bulb partial vacuum. If that work as per above, all bets are off on the infinitesimal-micro black hole hypothesis; it needs a spherical or at least round shape.
That is the wacky question here: If spin is generated by an 'infinitesimal-micro black hole', can we use this? Perhaps not just a toy?
1876 Crookes Radiometer - US Patent - P55I-NTP
Maybe Maxwell was right, sort of in reverse? it was not driven by electromagnetic energy but its inverse.
*(The un-wacky idea behind this glowing gas is that even at low heat the microwave heated up some materials inside, like the metal vanes, to high enough heat to cause vaporized glowing molecules; a very fine dark residue was left on the glass, and the radiometer will be damaged, stops working. 20 seconds proved way too long - original was for 1 sec - so the hot metal filament holding up the vane got hot enough to heat up the glass vacuum stem and melt it, air eventually leaked inside, so radiometer stopped working the next day.)

What happened... in the above?
In the above 'kitchen' experiment I exposed a Crookes radiometer to 20 secs of low power microwave, it glowed like a fluorescent bulb, spun wildly very fast, and initially was unaffected, though warm to the touch. By the next day, upon closer examination, there was a small melted piece on the glass stem, apparently the effect of high heat on the metal spindle (metal conducts and gets superheated in microwave), so too much power caused it to melt there, which caused air leak into the bulb, which later rendered it useless as a solar mill. It no longer works, since the partial vacuum is gone. However, just for fun I did put it into the same setting again to see what happens. This time there was no spin (vacuum gone), nor did it glow with plasma same as before; instead I saw heat concentrated at what I would consider the bulb's natural center, the wire spindle at that point (only) glowed white hot (not the rest of it), so it looked like an incandescent bulb for a few seconds. Odd, but that is where I thought the ambient reflections from within the glass bulb should focus in on itself; it seems to have done that, though with the vacuum gone no other glow, such as the plasma glow earlier, was noticed. At the top of the bulb I now see a very thin cloudy film of what I would call fine ash, which is also curious; a similar lighter residue showed on part of the bottom of bulb. Why did it concentrate there, at both 'poles'? At the bottom, where the glass stem sealed off the vacuum, I can see a break in the glass. There, I suspect, is the culprit. Too much heat broke the radiometer's vacuum seal, so now it no longer functions.
But with that mystery solved, it still leaves the 'wacky' problem of spin, why did it spin the way it did, trailing the blades' dark side? All things being equal, that current explanations suffice to explain the solar mill's spin. But what if the wacky idea of an infinitesimal-micro 'black hole' centered at the central cancelation point of energy within the round bulb is a real cause? Why would it spin trailing black side? This spin happened to be clockwise, trailing the black side of the blades, but why not its reverse? There is only one possibility that comes to mind: a molecular bias within the plasma is directed away from hot to cool. Now, how would that translate into the largest phenomenon of 'black hole' spin, such as our galactic center? The galaxy's spin is also biased (either clockwise or counterclockwise, depending from which pole observed), so spin is unidirectional. But why, what causes it to spin in that direction, as opposed to the other?
What would cause at the galaxy center a hot to cold molecular bias, setting the whole galaxy into its particular unidirectional spin? Where is the cold, where the hot? When the galaxy formed and all the ambient star light founds its natural center, where the 'black hole' formed, was there some temperature imbalance to determine direction of spin? And if there was, what could it have been? Thinking on this in a 'wacky' mode, the only solution I can find is that stars formed in arched filament series, meaning that concentrations of hot stars created arched bands within the cold background of space where they were born. One way to visualize this is to imagine clusters of stars arranged in crescent like formations, so there is a hotter region within the concave regions, as opposed to cooler regions on the concave.
 
The Milky Way is thought to be a barred spiral galaxy; interstellar medium
So the arched hot star formation would give enough of an imbalance against the cold interstellar medium, creating an effect where like hot and cold sides of vanes in a Crookes radiometer, the direction of spin would be initiated by this formation: Background space is 'hotter' inside the arms of the crescent. Wacky loony toons explanation to be sure, but it could work out as to how direction of spin is initiated around a black hole. Think of our early solar system with bands of hot matter, or the temperature distributions within bands of hot molten mass within any geologically active planet (like Earth), and a picture begins to emerge that mimics the dark and light vanes of the solar mill. Suddenly, wacky that it may be, it is not so terribly strange anymore. It could happen, a kind of 'Crookes effect' of galactic spin.
Well, I blew my radiometer with the above experiment, but it was in the cause of science. We now may have a way to look at spiral galaxies in a new way, and why the arms are curve the way they are, each arm arched to move away from its 'hot' concave cradled arms.
Spiral galaxies - Google images
Next wacky question: Is the center of the galaxy hot or cold? ... I suspect both, cold inside the 'event horizon' of the black hole, but super hot outside it. Something more to think about, loony toons for sure. Of course, then there's gravity.

Wacky poles reversals
| | Posted on Sunday, May 31, 2009 - 12:06 am: | |
What about magnetic poles reversals?
Now that I have galaxies spinning in my head, here's another wacky idea. The Sun's 22 year magnetic field cycle, twice the ~11 year sunspot cycle, where the Sun's polarity returns to its original after having flipped. Now we're getting really loony, but this magnetic field cycle may have a 'Crookes effect' relationship too.
We know the Sun's differential rotation will twist the field until it effectively completes a full cycle, which may lead to the ~11 years sunspot cycle. Now if the concave patterns within the Sun's hot interior are magnetically twisted to the point where they reach all the way around to the other side, there becomes a kind of 'merging', or magnetic reconnection, and that's valid. But it could also be by default (per galaxy spin dynamics, above) a reversal of the concave internal curvature of interior hot mass, which would hypothetically (per Crookes effect) reverse the direction of the Sun's spin. Of course, there is mass momentum behind this, so no such spin reversal is possible. But a reversal of the magnetic field may play the same role, until the magnetic domains are once again realigned as before, about 22 years later.
 
Differential Solar rotation; twisting of magnetic field
In the end, this differential twisting of the Sun's magnetic field will result in a reversed pole, as we know from observations. Something similar may take place inside the Earth's inner core as well. But the mechanism here is not the 'reconnection' of magnetic fields, though this may happen. Actually, what is being hypothesized is that once the fields have come completely around, a new concave driven dynamics comes into play, in effect, to reverse spin. However, this is impossible, as the mass angular momentum cannot be reversed. Therefore what is the default, that magnetism reverses instead, is what drives the poles reversal.
Wacky idea? Totally loony toons! But that's what a burned out radiometer can do... I'm beginning to like this Crookes effect. Of course, this requires a micro 'black hole' dynamics to work, driving differential spin from the inside.
Question: Do galaxies go through pole reversals? Why not, maybe in millions of years?

How old is Life?

Could Life be 12 Billion Years Old?
Of course this is contingent upon the current cosmology model of the wacky Big Bang origin, some 13.7 billion years ago. But if the universe is much much older, then the 12 billion tag is for our local observable universe only, since Life may in fact be nearly as old as the real universe, perhaps infinitely old...
quote:For life as we know it to form and thrive, four conditions must be met: sufficient amounts of the so-called biogenic elements, a solvent (on Earth, that solvent is liquid water), a source of energy, and time "for the elements to build up and create a home and conditions for life to thrive," Venkatesan explained.
The biogenic elements include carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, sulfur, iron, and magnesium.
Still, a good article worthy thinking about. Could this be how Life started? If we are direct descendants, are we 12 billion years old? Each one of us?... Think about it! |
Hollow Earth?

Hollow Earth - a dream consciousness?
I think of dreams as tiny bubbles of consciousness forming deep inside the brain and floating to the surface to burst into either normally coherent or fantastically wild stories. My dreams from inside -a still reconstructing brain- can at times take on very vivid reality, and often come remembered. One such post-stroke-reconstruction dream was a vivid account of Cinzia and I accepting an invitation to summer at the South Pole, where the brochures promised cruises, good company, fine cuisine, and interesting science seminars at a vacation base. Who could refuse?
We somehow got there, by plane I think, and the place had a dark eery atmosphere, though well lit locally, like the sky was night time but there was a superimposed map of the world on a large globe in the sky. On that globe, which literally took over the overhead sky in the inky background, there was a light shining on a part of it. It looked like where the Sun would be shining on it during the day. I even pointed out to Cinzia, who was busy making friends with an old woman who vacationed there regularly, that the light was shining over the United States region, though we were looking at it from south of the Equator. Also, the sea at this vacation base was very calm, of a coppery blue color, except for one wave which was very large, tsunami like, and it was coming at us. We braced ourselves by hanging on, but it never reached us and broke up earlier. Otherwise, there was no snow on the ground except when we were walking outside the vacation base, and then it was old crunchy wintry snow on which we walked in accompanying the old friend to her apartment complex. There were also many Japanese visitors, the bathrooms were unisex and clean, and the food was very good. I can't remember much more except that it was mostly very quiet there, it felt like we were on a cruise of some sort, small pleasure cruise boats were coming and going, inside the base it was warm but outside cold, the sky became totally dark when the solar rays moved beyond the horizon. But the whole place felt as if we were deep inside the Earth, and the overhead was a projection of what was going on outside, but there was no moon. Was this a 'hollow Earth', or Agartha dream?
 
Imaginary 'hollow earth', imaginary inner torus base (images interactive)
So what does the brain make of this dream? Not much more than the one I had just earlier, about wood chips. Just a fun thing to remember, that our dreams are little bubbles of consciousness, and they don't have to make sense. Just enjoy the moment, as the brain talks to itself in its own bubble babble.

Flying mirage
| | Posted on Friday, September 18, 2009 - 09:57 pm: | |
Flying wing mirage, YB-49..
Were they all destroyed? This reads like a mystery novel. After WW II Nortthrop developed a 'flying wing' which crashed and burned upon testing, and later all remaining built planes were destroyed. Some thought it was sabotage. However, what I saw a few days ago looked very much like the YB-49 in 'silent' flight over southern California.
 (interactive)
YB-49 Flying Wing by Northrop
I first though I saw the faint silhouette of a large night owl seen through the branches of a tree, but when I followed it in the dark as it cleared the tree, I thought I was seeing a mirage of a large flying wing silently gliding through the night sky. It traveled northwest to southeast over what from its point of reference would have been over the coast of Orange County in southern California. But I couldn't be sure, because it had no engine noise, no flashing lights, no lights at all except for the eerie glow from beneath, more like a reflection of city lights, as it quickly disappeared into the night sky. It did seem to glow of its own light, very faint, like a low amber light with no running lights at all, and no sound. It was fast too.
I immediately dismissed it, thinking I was seeing things, or some sort of UFO, when over these past days a strange idea kept insinuating itself to me. The image of a flying wing in the night sky was not a UFO but a test plane reincarnated from the old YB-49 era, with a new engine aboard, one silent that gives off a faint glow. It moved quickly enough to make me think it was a jet, but no sound at all. What was it, this flying wing 'mirage', my mind kept asking subconsciously?
However, as this flying wing concept was inherently unstable, why would anyone be bringing it back now, except on an experimental basis? And that's what my mind read, that this above silent, lightless plane was an experimental run of a new kind of engine based on a whole new kind of physics. I imagined, more like a mirage, that aboard was a spherical vacuum container within which was high spinning hot gas plasma, so its self gravitating spin was generating a radiating axial light energy, which covered the whole plane with a faint eery light. But more importantly, it boosted the vessel's lift by lowering its 'inertial mass' (lower G aboard), so it took very little to maneuver the craft with silent engines and great stability. The axial jets of energy were covering the whole body of the craft, which is what gave its eerie light. This would be new physics, and it would be revolutionary to say the least. But I am only reading my imagination and have no way to confirm any of this, except as an apparition or mirage of what I saw. It definitely was not a B-2, which I had seen in night flight over Oklahoma. So what was it?
Could our Air Force be testing an experimental plane over the southern California coast, flying it from Edwards Base? The base was named after a pilot who died in the second test of YB-49, so why not? But it must be 'above Top Secret' if so, and we may never know until a fleet is produced in some future. For now, I will treat it as another UFO. If its our own, we will learn it by and by. But why test it here, with no running lights? Unless... it was to give the city lights a show? ;) |

2 Pallas and Enceladus both have almost same diameter of ~ 550 km.
BBC Science News - Pallas is 'Peter Pan' space rock
Why are they so different? Only real difference is 2 Pallas is at about 3 AU, while Enceladus is at about 9.5 AU, and that at 1G per AU makes all the difference. One remains an ill shaped asteroid, while the other is a fully round planet-like moon.
 
Asteroid 2 Pallas; Saturn moon Enceladus
Enceladus even has a tenuous atmosphere, something impossible at 3G, but it can happen at 9.5G. Time to change our "wacky" thinking of how formed the solar system? It's just a small matter of G?
Even at 9.5 G, it is still a very weak (@ 10^-11 range) gravitational force. |

The further we look, the more we see - red.
Surprise, but looking some 13.1 billion light years yields a universe full of fully formed galaxies, and this is up against a 'Big Bang' universe allegedly originated 13.7 billion years ago. Of course, the light is very 'stretched by an expanding universe', so believed, so what we are seeing now in highly red shifted light is what it looked like 13.1 billion years ago. But if light is stretched gravitationally through very high deep space gravity G, then this whole exercise in why the 'early' universe is already so well populated with fully formed galaxies is moot. The real question is can we see beyond the gravitationally redshifted light spectrum, or does light simply disappear from our vision? Of course, ditto, the whole universe expansion Big Bang is rubbish, and hopefully will be better understood as nonsense very soon. Let's move on in astronomy, we've been stuck here too long, Mr. Einstein et Fr. Lemaitre.

'black hole' in a lab

Black Hole in a lab?
First black hole for light created on Earth, NewScientis (2009) article.
 (interactive)
Can we re-create a supermassive black-hole?
This is not quite what I had envisioned per Ryoji Matsumoto's simulation of a 'black hole' which approximates the Axiomatic Equation's hypothesis: that if all lambda cancels on a point, extreme 'black hole' gravity results, i.e., center of any galaxy. But the fact they are looking into it makes it intriguing.
Of course, it is only a matter of time for us to duplicate this process artificially and generate a new, perhaps inexhaustible, source of usuable energy to power our engines, possibly space engines with unlimited acceleration over time. The possibilities are staggering with this 'loony wachy' idea! "Fire in the hole!"
Ps: as an aside, they're getting closer to understanding what galactic black holes are really all about: Supermassive black holes – the fathers of galaxies - NewScientist article - but they still don't get the full picture, as per Axiomatic Equation, that when all energy lambda cancels on a point, extreme gravity G exists, just like the center of every galaxy. |
AU^-1/2 in cm is Pioneer Anomaly?

(AU)^-1/2 in cm is Pioneer Anomaly?
The Pioneer Anomaly reduces simply to the inverse distance square root of an astronomical unit? Hence, PA=(AU)^-1/2 ??
(No square root format?) Can this puzzling phenomenon of our solar system be that simple? Or simply rubbish?
Let's take a look at what is said in the "Variable G" paper: A VARIABLE MASS PER VARIALBE G HYPOTHESIS, AS A MODEL FOR THE ANOMALOUS ACCELERATION OF PIONEERS 10 AND 11 -- per the Equivalence Principle and the Axiomatic Equation. (2006)
The paper says essentially that if the energy radiated from the sun on a point is multiplied by its distance from the sun (works better using kilometers??), presumably to measure some solar energy density (Joules per meter squared?); then if this result is multiplied by the planet's orbital kinetic energy (for 1 kg mass?), the total energy represents some model energy for that planet in orbit (see paper how worked out for each planet), which is E=9E+16 Joules for Earth. Then, if the de Broglie-Planck quantum equation (E=hf) is written to show proton mass (E=hc/[lambda*proton]), and this is applied against Einstein's famous equation modified to show some proton-gravity relationship; and this is further reduced to a facsimile of Newton's G, then we have the delta G per AU, which works out to be approximately 1G per 1AU. So the Pioneers 'wacky' Anomaly is simply the delta G variable per Newton's G, which works out to about 'one'; and this is per the distance of 1AU, viz. 1/(AU) in centimeters, which per Equivalence Principle requires this function to be a square root of AU, so the result is: (1/AU)^1/2, or better yet: (AU)^-1/2 as the 'pure' Anomaly for the Pioneers in centimeters per seconds squared.
Let's follow this trail and see if it takes us there, per the Variable G paper.
From 3.1: Acceleration of the Pioneers towards the Sun:
delta G = 7.239E-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2
Newton's G = 6.67E-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2
1AU distance = 150E+9 meters
So working it out as per above:
delta G/ Newton's G/ 1AU = 7.239/6.67/ 1AU = 1.085 (dimensionless ratio?) which is further divided by 1AU:
1.085 / 1.5E+11 meters = 0.7233E-11 (dimensionless? or m^2 kg^-1 s^-2? - acceleration per one kilogram mass?) but this is then modified for the Equivalence Principle (where delta G grows at 1G per 1AU causing mass to increase proportionally as its square root?) so we get (0.7233E-11)^1/2 in meters = (72.33E-13)^1/2 in meters, or (72.33E-15)^1/2 in centimeters, which taking square root is (dimensions adjusted?):
-a = -8.505E-7.5 cm s^-1/ s kg (dimensions adjusted per second - per kg??)
vs. actual measured anomaly: -a = -8.74E-8 cm s^-2 (approx)
As the paper shows, this is merely an approximation, but pretty close. If so it is either revolutionary to astronomy - or simply rubbish. What is it?
"You wana hand sandwich?... Uuummmrph!... What's the idea?.... Ouch!!"
If that's all there is..? What will 'Curly' Einstein think?

Thanks Scheptik, I think the above mentioned can mean "acceleration per meter, per kilogram", or more to the point:
1.085 / 1.5E+11 meters = 0.7233E-11 m^2 kg^-1 s^-2, which is same as 72.33E-15 cm/s^2 (per cm/kg),
which taking the numerical square root becomes:
a = -8.505E-7.5 cm/ s^2 as calculated using centimeters (vs. 8.74E-8 cm/ s^2 observed)
This makes the Pioneer Anomaly acceleration a function of both distance and mass in a variable G system.
Just my thoughts on this, and as I mentioned in the original paper, the reason Pioneers has lower acceleration than calculated is perhaps due to on board heat factors. But thanks for noticing! Funny graphics. Is that the Ricci tensor on the board?

Electro-weak, super-density stars?

Are these gazillion pounds 'weaklings' really electro-weak stars?

Exotic stars may mimic big bang (NewScientist)
quote:Now, a study led by De-Chang Dai of the State University of New York in Buffalo says the deaths of very massive stars may lead to "electroweak" stars that creep even closer to the black hole limit (arxiv.org/abs/0912.0520).
The cores of these stellar corpses can reach the same density as that of the universe 10-10 seconds after the big bang. At that point, the distinction between the electromagnetic and weak nuclear forces breaks down.
Whether or not the Big Bang's 10-10 seconds happened is irrelevant and secondary to what happens when all energy lambda is weakened down to where total gravity takes over. That is the question. The Axiomatic Equation says "yes". |

Planet Ratio always One?
| | Posted on Friday, January 29, 2010 - 02:04 pm: | |
Planet Spin Ratios always equal to One? Approximately?
Let's see if we can make any kind of sense out of this, since the idea is preposterous, if not rubbish. How can spin ratios for the planets all be equal to one? There must be a hidden error here, so let's look for it.
The basic premise according to paper on Planetary Spin, viz. http://www.humancafe.com/discus/messages/88/97.html#POST5032 (original linked in post), claims that Venus is used as a base zero for this formulation, and Earth's spin as base one. The spin ratio is a function of interior planet heat expressed as Kelvin, and of orbital energy in Joules (expressed per the Axiomatic Equation), per the paper.
The equation is written in a very confusing style, so let's rewrite it here better:
Venus = (231.7K/17.33E+16 J) = 13.36E-16 Kelvin/Joules (this is a constant, product of Venus Kelvin black body temp divided by orbital energy?)
Earth = (254.3K/9E+16J) ÷ (13.36E-16) * [(254.3K/231.7K)] ÷ (365/365) ÷ [(1)*(1)] = 2.32 (this is the Earth 'ratio' of spin per the SR equation, Spin Ratio?)
Planet's Kelvin to Energy ratio = K/E (for any planet)
The SR equation works out to be:
[K/E] ÷ (Venus constant)*(planet K/Venus K)÷ [planet's orbital days/365 Earth days] ÷ [(planet's spin)*(AU^1/2) = SR (spin ratio)
(Note, interesting how the "planet spin" is incorporated into the SR equation. How can this SR equation be used to figure "planet spin" from all the other variables of Energy and black body Kelvin? Unless SR value equals some same constant, so both Venus and Earth are "netted out", it serves no useful purpose.)
For Earth, the SR works out to be = 2.32 (as shown above, base spin rate of 1 day spin), so this must be the constant with which all else in these equations have to work out. If ALL the SR results are then divided by this base rate, they should all be equal to = 1, if this SR equation is true. But does this really work?
What if we took out the daily spin from the above, and worked the numbers for SR? The new equation would be as above, with planet spin omitted, figured at 1/AU:
[K/E] ÷ (Venus constant)*(planet K/Venus K) ÷ (planet's orbital days/365 Earth days) ÷ (1/AU^1/2) = SR (non-spin ratio?)
Here are the computed SR for each planet: (note, Venus 231.7 Kelvin is cooler than Earth's 254.3K!)
Mercury = (7.3E-16 Kj)÷(13.36E-16 Kj)*(1.74) ÷(0.241)*(0.624) = 2.46 SR
(vs. 0.0456 in original)
Venus = (13.36E-16)÷(13.36E-16*(1) ÷(0.67)*(0.85) = 1.42 (out of line SR?)
(vs.0.005 -retro- in original)
Earth = 2.32 (base of SR=1)
Mars = (54.43E-16)÷(13.36E-16)*(0.907)÷(1.88)*(1.225) = 2.408
(vs. 2.25 original)
Jupiter = (328.36E-16)÷ (13.36E-16)*(0.475)÷(11.86)*(2.28) = 2.244
Saturn = 2.212
Uranus= 2.37
Neptune = 2.33
Note: Divide all these above by Earth's 2.32, and you get approximately =1, when spin is NOT included.
What really happened here? That Kelvin black body temps has a relationship with orbital solar energy received, but not spin related as far as we can tell, unless you add in the spin in the first place. Not meaningful. All this accomplished in the end is if you divide SR by Earth's 2.32, it equals to one, approximately.
[In following the links, we come accross this discussion on Bad Astronomy. So this was discussed already, five years ago! Nothing resolved then: http://www.bautforum.com/against-mainstream/17004-planet-spin-function-interior-heat.html . It FAILED then, as it fails now. Planet spin has no relation to interior heat as it stands. As such, SR is rubbish. But there is an (1/AU)^1/2 relationship that means "something", though at present don't know what. Why should this figure bring it all to unity?]
What is the significance of (1/AU)^1/2 in this solar energy to planet Kelvin relationship? This may be the REAL question here: Why is 1/AU^1/2 a meaningful value in planetary solar energy system, or the 'unity' of energy relationships? Are the outer planets progressively hotter K inside (by 1/AU^1/2), and cooler towards the Sun? Why would that be significant? Is there some sort of 'energy equilibrium' in our solar system? Interesting...

quote:Why is 1/AU^1/2 a meaningful value in planetary solar energy system, or the 'unity' of energy relationships? Are the outer planets progressively hotter K inside (by 1/AU^1/2), and cooler towards the Sun?
This is "puzzling" indeed, now that you mentioned it. Perhaps as a simple ratio of planet's Kelvin temp to Joules orbital energy calculated, it appears to increase in relative value (but not at the 1/AU^1/2 rate; Viz. Mercury: 7.3, Venus: 13.36, Earth: 28.2, Mars: 54.4, Jupiter: 328.4, etc.). The progression is mysterious, as to why internal/black body temps would increase with distance from the Sun. Perhaps, just a maybe, the 1/AU^1/2 gravitational relationship translates into greater internal planetary heat from the higher G pressures, when going out solar system?
Must think on this some more, maybe in five more years? What does it all mean? Why is there even any relationship parity here? I am puzzled, so for now must answer "I dunno."

Equilibrium charge-gravity?
| | Posted on Wednesday, February 03, 2010 - 02:45 pm: | |
Can deep-space gravity (G+) equal Weak-force positive (+) charge 'monopole'?
 (interactive - video)
Big interactive stellar galaxy forces at work
This is a very belated answer to Naive's question from two years ago:
quote:In the absence of any large body (that could potentially cancel out the gravitation between small objects), what would be stronger:
The gravitation between two oppositely charged particles or
The electromagnetic attraction between the same two particls?
This idea was recalled much later when considering a single magnetic mono-pole charge, not shown to exist experimentally (to date), only theorized. This was later again brought to mind when I looked up the Weak force of the four forces of the Standard Model of particle physics. This then refers back to another post by Naive last year, wondering how would two stars of equal charge interact:
quote:Here's another question: Suppose we coud design two, star-sized magnets (both in mass/density) that were similarly charged. Would they repel each other in space or collide? In other words, In physics the electromagnetic force is supposed to be stronger than gravitation. Is there a limit, however, where the sheer scale of mass will cause gravitaion to "win out" over the electro-magnetic force? What if they were traveling toward each other at tremendous speeds? What role would that play?
So putting these two together, I began to formulate over the many months past, however crudely, what this might look like.
1) The first thought went back to the idea that galaxy centered 'black holes' generate axial jets of positive charged proton ions, or proto-hydrogen atoms, which are expelled at near light speed out of both jets (negative charged electrons may also be expelled). If these are positive charged when expelled, they would expect to remain with same charge as they distribute randomly in the space beyond the galaxy. So think of positive charged 'monopole' proto-hydrogen atoms floating randomly in deep space repelling each other due to like-charge.
2) The second thought is that the Weak force, which is at 10^-6 range (extreme short range) is similar to the gravity G 'constant' of deep space (see #5 & 6), which is also in the 10^-6 range (infinite). So now the proto-hydrogen is both positive charged and gravity powered, assuming a monopole Weak force, or electroweak charge interaction, at an equilibrium of approximately 10^-6 force range for both gravity and Weak force.
3) Therefore, at the deep space equilibrium range of 10^-6 force for both gravity and charge, where the Weak force is in equilibrium with the very high gravity of deep space, there results a force neutral for all proto-atoms floating in space, where their similar charge repulsion will counter equally their high gravity attraction. In effect, they are free atomic ions in space unconcerned with any other masses around them, until something happens.
4) What happens to these monopole-proto-atoms is they encounter electromagnetic energy, where the e.m. energy splits the monopole into duality, so now the proto-hydrogen atom becomes charge neutral full atom with both a positive proton and negative electron shell. This makes it into an atom with a slight gravity G remainder (per Axiomatic Equation), what we recognize as normal gravity as measured, so it becomes what is known as baryonic 'dark' matter in a low (brown dwarf) energy environment, or ordinary matter in Earth's level G in our vicinity of a hot star, like our Sun. So the result is once e.m. energy encounters these monopole atoms, the photons split into dual charge, anchored as positive at the atomic nucleus, and hovering as negative at the electron shell. This then, by default, becomes the electromagnetic duality of both electricity and magnetism.
5) The end result, if such can be hypothesized, for stars, or galaxies, of similar charge floating in space is that their total gravity is offset by their total electromagnetic energy, so they remain 'free floating' bodies in deep space. Therefore, in the end, they would neither collide nor repel each other from their electro-gravity charge, though they may be moved for other reasons, viz., disturbances in the very small gravity G remainder forces generated by e.m. charge duality.
As a rough 'Post-thought' on the matter: There is room for 'dark energy' of an expanding universe, if the positive charge is greater than its equilibrium gravitational force. But this is unlikely for two reasons: 1) there is no space expansion, the Hubble redshift is an optical illusion caused by deep space gravity G at 10^-6 force range; 2) if the monopole is in equilibrium with G, there is no repulsion nor attraction effect. Dark energy, therefore, is not likely if the universe is in 10^-6 charge and gravity equilibrium. In a 'variable' G universe, "equilibrium" of the four forces is not seconds after the mythical Big Bang, but at the G=10^-6 electro-gravity cut-off (think 'photoelectric effect' analogy) of deep intergalactic space.

SR Kelvin is Space temp?
| | Posted on Saturday, February 06, 2010 - 07:01 pm: | |
SR = ~2.72 kelvin? In answer to Scheptik comment:
<quote>Is there some sort of 'energy equilibrium' in our solar system? Interesting... </quote>
Pardon my intrusion with something so totally trivial, that space temperature is nearly 3 degrees kelvin,. It seems the argument for planetary spin as pointed out is meaningless, since there is no apparent spin to interior planet temperature relationship. The numerical result is not meaningless, however, if we consider SR may be in kelvin.
It occurred to me doing some simple dimensional analysis of the equation stated earlier where all results approximate SR = 2.32, which is an odd result. The planet's kelvin temperature divided by kinetic orbital energy, then divided by Venus constant which is also same dimensions, therefore cancels out as a numerical dimensionless ratio. Ditto for planet orbital days, they cancel out to dimensionless ratios. If understood right, so does 1/AU square root ratio, which represents delta G over Newton's G, so its dimension cancels into a numerical ratio. The only one that stands out is the planet's kelvin over Venus' kelvin ratio is still temperature, so it may not be canceled out. Temperature remains temperature, so this leaves the equation with a kelvin dimension.
Therefore, SR = ~ 2.32 kelvin, if the right answer is pretty close to absolute zero or space background temperatures.
Interesting.
What amazes is the puzzling result this odd equation gives to all the planets, all having the same SR ratio. Why would the planets' ratios expressed in kelvin come out to a near approximation of space back ground temperature of 2.725 kelvin? This is odd and improbable, but it is an answer that somewhat approximates space background temperature. If I have further insights into this, not likely, I will contact author by private email.
BTW, there is growing suspicion that Pioneer Anomaly, like Global Warming, though well measured may not be from causes believed: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1001.3686v1 (Jan.20, 2010)

Haumea is an odd egg in our solar system.

Haumea is one of the strangest known objects in the solar system. It is a big across as Pluto but shaped like a cigar or perhaps an American football. These two images show the two extremes of its appearance as it spins. Credit: Mike Brown/Caltech - Space.com
New Views of Our Solar System- Space.com- shows dramatic clarity of the planets and moons, including Plutoids like Haumea , some 50 AU from Sun (Kuiper Belt region), which is shaped more like an American football. Most interesting is its high spin, perhaps why it is elongated on that axis, and its crystaline water composition (at least on surface, high albedo). Water seems to be common in our solar system, from Mercury's surprising water to Martian subsurface water, to it present on the gas giants' moons and Kuiper Belt objects. At ~50 AU where per Axiomatic 'variable G' it resides in ~50 G (Newton's Earth G), the density of this egg shaped object may be overstated, where it may be closer to water's density of 1g/cm3, than that of rock density. (Wiki page has Haumea's density at ~3g/cm3, which may be "overstated" in 50 G, where it "acts as if" it were three times denser.) An all water object would more likely deform, under high spin induced by high G, into the elastic football shape than would rock.

If it is ever discovered, it will describe the workings of the universe at the most fundamental level and thus encompass our entire understanding of nature. It would also answer such enduring puzzles as what dark matter is, the reason time flows in only one direction and how gravity works. Small wonder that Stephen Hawking famously said that such a theory would be "the ultimate triumph of human reason – for then we should know the mind of God".

Really, all this means is the further away, the more redshifted the light is, nothing more. If it redshifts due to greater G gravity in deep space, then there is no "expansion", just redshift. All this Big Bang nonsense will be dispelled before long. Also, why cosmic census is 'undercounted' at 10 bly away. Craza! Getting 'craziar' all the time.
The tale gets bigger with the telling: the whole universe came out of a black hole?

Countdown "10" to Strangeness
The first 9 countdown were to do with how gravity G may not be a 'universal constant' as now believed.
The 10th should be this: zero X infinity = 1 as per original at:
Oct. 23, 2001: http://www.humancafe.com/discus/messages/1/30.html
If 1 x 1 = 1
then 1/2 x 2 = 1
or 1/4 x 4 = 1
and 1/8 x 8 = 1 etc...
or formally [1/n x n = 1], where the ‘n’ gets larger and larger until it approaches ‘infinity’.
Thus, where does this leave us? We eventually get: 1/’infinity’ x ‘infinity’ = 1.

Are GR calculations 'spinning' out of control?
(click image for article "Interior Structure of a Black Hole Computed Using Superstrings")
Per this article: Every black hole may hold a hidden universe (originally appeared in NewScientist magazine)
quote:WE COULD be living inside a black hole. This head-spinning idea is one cosmologist's conclusion based on a modification of Einstein's equations of general relativity that changes our picture of what happens at the core of a black hole. ....
For his analysis, Poplawski turned to a variant of GR called the Einstein-Cartan-Kibble-Sciama (ECKS) theory of gravity. Unlike Einstein's equations, ECKS gravity takes account of the spin or angular momentum of elementary particles. Including the spin of matter makes it possible to calculate a property of the geometry of space-time called torsion.
Does this ever stop? Or is modern GR cosmology myth so entrenched we can no longer dislodge it? A much simpler model of what happens in a black hole is found here: http://www.humancafe.com/discus/messages/6/17.html#POST546 , and that black holes are found at center of galaxies for this reason, discussed here: http://www.humancafe.com/discus/messages/88/475.html#POST4033 and here: http://www.humancafe.com/discus/messages/88/185.html#POST3723 .
