RE: Quantum Weirdness or Pseudoscientific Crackpottery?

in #science8 years ago (edited)

What you say is pure non-sense.

Quantum mechanics is an amazingly efficient theory for describing all data from the microscopic world so far. No matter you like it or not, it works. Thousands of results are there to prove it. Which also means it is falsifiable, testable, etc... and your claims about quantum mechanics being a pseudoscience and not testable are just wrong and a proof you do not understand it.

And the same holds for quantum field theory, the Standard Model of particle physics or cosmology, You can call them as you want, but they make predictions in agreement with a plethora of data. This is why they are so well considered today.

In short: your claims about the current paradigm being not testable is just ridiculous. Data is there! You seem to be the only one who does not want to see it.

It is good to be open-minded and to listen for new ideas. But if you want to replace the current paradigm, you ned to come with something that does as good with respect to data. This is not the case of your 'theory'. It is wrong from line 1. Let me recall that wave and matter are dual, as stated by quantum mechanics. And the wave associated with matter has nothing to do with electromagnetism. Data is there to prove it.

Finally, in my career I met several crackpots. They all have something in common. They all claim that modern science is a pseudoscience, that they are the only ones who know what is real science, but that unfortuantely no one wants to listen to them... Your article definitely sorts you in this category... I do not even have to do it myself. Thanks for sparing me this task :)

Modern physics may not be the ultimate theory (which we do not know yet), but in the meantime, it works extremely well to describe all data. Try to do as good. If it does not work (and I can guarantee your "theory" won't work), it is maybe the time to get some critical sense and move on with other things.

You mean data like Aspect's experiment supposedly proving "entanglement"?

Have you seen that?

It actually says that about 5 * 10^7 photon pairs are emitted per second by the source. That's a lot. Then it says that single rates are over 10^4/sec and that dark rates are about 10^2/s and that the accidental rate is about 10/s. Finally, actual rates are in the order of 0-40/s.

Let's say for the sake of the argument that the "actual rate" is about 100/s. That means that 100 - (100/5e7 * 100) = 99,9998% of the supposedly generated pairs are somehow not labeled as "actual".

I don't know, but it seems to me that if you throw away that much of your data points because they don't fit with the desired results that you are doing something wrong.

Beside that, there's no consideration whatsoever about how the interaction between "photons" and their polarizer takes place. It's just assumed to be "random", so what you get is a situation whereby you don't have any idea what you're measuring and what it actually means.

In other words: garbage in, garbage out and nothing proven whatsoever.

All data does not mean Aspect's experiment only. All data... means all data from the microscopic world. From the evidence for weak bosons or the gluons, to cosmological precision data, via neutrino physics, etc... Good luck to describe all of this with electromagnetism only.

Of course, if you consider only selected pieces from data, anything becomes possible. But this is not scientific...

No reasearch to prove it?
And what do you think Large Hadron Collider, Tevatron or Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider have been doing?
You are science confusionist. Put you tinfoil hat.

You can find your answer just above. They are smashing particles together with ever increasing speed and energy, only to create interference c.q. heterodyning of the electromagnetic phenomena involved, which of course results in the differentials coming to the forefront.

And then they catalog these differentials, give them a name, and confuse themselves therewith.

what they have been doing is like Harrison Ford in 'Blade Runner', zooming in to a few pixels; 'enhance', and reveal detailed data.
-over and over again.
