JUST PLAIN WRONG The Dalliance of Quantum Theory with the Defiance of Bell's Inequality

by Frank Lad

The educated public have long been regaled with "the mysteries of quantum physics", which enshroud far-flung claims about the fundamental nature of matter. These rely on a stunning proposition of quantum theory arising in the 1960s and contested through the subsequent sixty years: that the probabilities deriving from it defy a mathematical inequality known as Bell's inequality. John Bell himself, who formulated the problem, was puzzled by the result, and surmised that in time we would discover w... more

Complexity Thinking

The Four Forces of Human Nature: A Unifying Theory

by Roberto Treviño Peña

Since physicists discovered the four fundamental forces of nature—Weak, Strong, Electromagnetic and Gravity—they have tried to unify them into one theory. Physicists went down to the subatomic level to search and ended up with vibrating strings. They went up into space and ended up with gravitons (which are yet to be found). But what do these forces mean in terms of human behavior? In The Four Forces of Human Nature: A Unifying Theory, Dr. Treviño Peña identifies the human forces and the specifi... more

Quantum Theory of Electrodynamics

by Russel James Farmer

Quantum Theory of Electrodynamics was first published in the Toth-Maatian Review, Lubbock, Texas, 1990-93, Editor Harold Willis Milnes. Having ascertained that a wave packet spectrum had to be constructed out of Doppler shift frequencies, it was natural to use non-relativistic, rather than relativistic, Doppler shifts, as they are simpler and the chance of a successful theory is greater using them. Constructing a Fourier spectrum in this manner, the first thing evident was that the width of the ... more
