Predictions for conventional physics fields
Posted: Mon Jan 16, 2017 11:52 am
Hello all,
I recently was introduced to Larson's reciprocal systems research through the Ra material, which I have been subsequently trying to understand in hopes that I can eventually contribute to the research being done here at RS2. I recently completed a nuclear physics Masters and decided not to continue with my PhD due to the highly politicized nature of the funding climate that currently exists in the natural sciences - which I believe to be a large factor behind the lack of progress in Physics in the last 30+ years. Of course, if the Ra material is somewhat accurate it would imply that technologies have been deliberately withheld from the public ( such as "electrogravitic" tech), which if properly disclosed would be a major catalyst for advancement of the physical (and metaphysical) sciences. While I do believe that tech has been withheld, I also wonder if any theoretical developments that would shed light on the interactions between gravity and the other standard model forces have been actively suppressed so as to maintain the coverup, or if the funding climate has successfully precluded such developments. Perhaps the answer is both. In any case, it seems to me that expanding Larson's research as RS2 is currently working to do could be fruitful in understanding phenomena ranging from the current "mainstream" scientific mysteries (dark matter, expansion, origin of physical constants, consciousness, etc) to things that science doesnt even acknowledge (psychic abilities, "chi" or "prana", astral planes, UFO tech, teleportation, etc). My hope is that such a theoretical understanding of the metaphysical could help bridge ancient traditions with modern sciences, bringing the spirit back into the collective Western consciousness and help pave the way for a more focused societal effort on our collective spiritual evolution.
Naive optimism aside, in order for the scientific community to want to look into RS2, predictions must be made to demonstrate its worth. To this aim, I set about trying to understand Larson's predictions of the interatomic distances, hoping that this could help springboard into further theoretical work. So far I've had a difficult time understanding this part of his work, I think it coming from my inability to understand the 3 quantities used to make up the elements (btw I was working through this document: http://www.reciprocalsystem.com/spu/index.htm ). My goal was to get to the chapter on radioactive decay to see if measurable quantities could be calculated for beta decay using RS. Clearly I will have to spend more time understanding the theory to get to that point but my hope is that I could write a script that would be capable of calculating measurable quantities of the beta decay for a given isotope such as the transition strengths and end-point energies.
My particular motivation for choosing beta decay to study is simply because that is part of what I was studying for my Masters, as there are currently large uncertainties in the databases for beta decays of isotopes that are far from stability (large neutron to proton ratio or proton to neutron ratio relative to the stable isotopes for a given proton number). These uncertainties originate in the experiments performed to measure such decays, often relying on germanium detectors to measure the outgoing gammas from the decay daughter nucleus which run into efficiency issues when you have large numbers of gammas in coincidence (due to a large density of possible excited states by which it can decay to and the multitude of possible paths to decay to the ground state). This is known as the "pandemonium effect" and is being addressed by experiments using large NaI detectors that almost completely surround the decaying nucleus to get close to 100% detection efficiency for the outgoing gammas (called "Total Absorptions Spectrometers"). This allows for much more accurate decay schemes for beta decays of isotopes far from stability.
If RS theory could predict the decay schemes to close to the newly updated values from the total absorption spectrometers, then it would draw considerable attention because most of these isotopes that are far from stability have a large enough mass number to where directly using the standard model to calculate observable quantities becomes intractable due to the factorial scaling of the problem's computational complexity as you add elementary constituents. To get around this, several models have been developed by the nuclear physics community to calculate various decay quantities to varying degrees of success. These are still difficult computationally and often fall wide of the experimental predictions, especially as you look at nuclei farther from stability. I think using RS for these sorts of computations could potentially be both simpler and more accurate and may be a useful avenue for validating its explanatory power.
Given that I'll have to do this research in my free time I think it could take several years before getting any useful results (if its actually possible of course), but I thought before I started an intensive effort feedback from the experts in the community would be of great value. To that end I have a few questions:
1. What efforts have already been made to make theoretical predictions for observable physical phenomena beyond Larson's calculations of inter-atomic distances?
2. Where can I find more complete transcripts of Larson's works? (I've noticed that most of the papers listed on http://www.reciprocalsystem.com/dbl/ have many chapters missing)
3. Has any work been done to understand excited nuclear states of matter in terms of the reciprocal system?
Thanks for reading, and I look forward to learning more about RS2!
