I’m entertaining the possibility now.
I’ll need some time as emptiness is a deeply ingrained concept for me, but, then again, I do view it mostly as complementary to illustrating the transient nature of naturally occurring formations which can be sensed about the universe, so — more so something — rather than actual nothing. Go figure, ey? Ha. -------------------- Give me Liberty caps -or- give me Death caps

I'm not comfortable with the language around the DNA->Protein descriptions in
https://www.shroomery.org/forum and if the physics through this area is as soft and buttery as the molecular biology, the overall takeaway is going to be soft. bring on some experiments to harden it up a bit. have to admit, I have been enjoying the imagery - very aspirational.

The DNA thing was an attempt to extend the insights for some kind of potentially related application.
I can ask you if you know what I'm referring to when I say adding a variable fine structure constant to Maxwell's equations, and I think you can imagine that these steps have already been taken. Although evidently I hold this card dear for now. The physics here is soft and buttery to the palate. In the sense that it's a solid meal. I think about how long Einstein sat on his equations for before he really let it sink in what he thought he witnessed? If I am right, what are the consequences? While I may think I see benefits to opening this Pandoras box, I question the unforseen results. For better and for worse. Plenty would ask what even is an oh my god particle. I've heard it before, and even if it isn't the same omg particle, I'm hard pressed to say why it isn't like a theory for the existence of oh my god particles. Gravity waves as pinballs in an electrostatic field, why is it so coherent to my mind? I can't reasonably falsify it, I keep seeing the silver linings. Now I see this thing infront of me, this idea I comprehend, I see, I can share, but I think who has the time to care to understand aswell? Does it make my life better knowing what I think I know? I'm only more grounded than ever. I don't want to change other people's views, and yet I seem to expect the conclusion to be obvious. To me it's done, it's real, it's a unified field theory, and I want someone to prove me wrong, but I realise I can't imagine how. I'm not asking someone to validate what is valid. Maybe it's an unseen cry for help I don't think I need or haven't planned precisely how to ask. If you're on the peak of Everest, you don't need to ask others for help. In my mind, only others can ask for help getting there. I want to simplify the math into an analogy. Edited by sudly (05/03/24 06:00 AM)

Quote: I would not be impressed with myself if I said out aloud, "the calculated indices of refraction for both gravitational waves and gamma rays, as well as their implications, provide fascinating insights into the fabric of spacetime and the dynamics that govern the universe." Without breaking that wall. However, I realise I can release an abstract of a paper with an effective sort of paywall between the actual theoretical construct, and the insights gleamed. But I have to ask, is this anything people reading here want to believe in? It is apparently confirmation of the existence of new physics akin to predictions from Quantum Loop Theory, which suggest spacetime might possess a discrete structure at microscopic scales. New physics in the form of a spectra between 100 femtojoules or less, and one part in 10x^15. The energy released from the annihilation of an electron and a positron is approximately 1.64x10^13 joules. This value is many orders of magnitude larger than the -3.33×10^-16 figure mentioned, of 100 femtojoules, which is a dimensionless number representing a deviation from the index of refraction. Thus, they represent completely different physical quantities and scales. Quote: Quote: Quote: Quote: Quote: Quote: Edited by sudly (05/04/24 07:56 AM)

To put in bluntly, I'm not proposing new physics per say, because the differentiation between discovering "new physics" versus extending our existing measurements to new scales often blurs as our observational tools and theoretical models improve. The minute deviation in the index of refraction 𝑛 I mentioned, is about recognising and measuring effects at unprecedented scales, not necessarily about new physical laws. In developing the capability to measure smaller and smaller changes, such as those at the femtojoule level or tiny deviations in physical constants, we're not discovering new physics but are instead revealing the finer details of existing physical laws.
Discovering that phenomena behave differently under extreme or previously untested conditions doesn't necessarily mean that existing physics is wrong, but it might be incomplete. For example, general relativity and quantum mechanics are well-tested within their respective domains, but their integration (or lack thereof) in conditions like neutron star mergers, black holes or the early universe presents unresolved challenges. Detecting subtle effects at new scales can highlight where and how existing theories might be modified or extended. The observation of the universe expanding at different rates in different regions or detecting variable physical constants suggests that our universe might be more heterogeneous than previously thought. This doesn't necessarily indicate something fundamentally wrong with our understanding but highlights the complexity and variability of the universe. It suggests that local conditions (such as gravitational fields, energy densities, etc.) might influence physical laws or constants in ways that aren't apparent at larger scales. Small-scale measurements revealing significant effects at larger scales is a common theme in physics. Phenomena like Brownian motion or quantum fluctuations are microscopic in scale but have macroscopic implications. Similarly, measuring tiny deviations in the speed of gamma rays or slight variations in physical constants might provide crucial insights into large-scale phenomena like the structure and evolution of the universe. What might initially appear as new physics could often be an extension of existing theories to new domains or scales. This exploration deepens our understanding and occasionally necessitates adjustments or expansions of our theories to accommodate new data. This process is intrinsic to the scientific method—refining, expanding, and sometimes revising our understanding of the universe as we gather more precise and comprehensive data.

In physics, the index of refraction 𝑛 close to 1.000000000000000415 suggests only a minuscule deviation from the behaviour expected in a perfect vacuum, indicative of incredibly fine nuances in the way gamma rays travel through space. Similarly, the human brain, despite its complex and energy-intensive functions, operates with remarkable efficiency—consuming about as much power as a low-wattage light bulb, yet capable of processing vast amounts of information. This analogy underscores how even seemingly small or precise deviations or efficiencies, whether in physical constants or biological systems, can have profound implications for our understanding of both the universe and ourselves. It highlights the intricate balance and unexpected efficiencies that emerge in both nature and the cosmos. Quote: Edited by sudly (05/06/24 06:08 PM)

![]() I dig your sense of humor. One or so things: I don’t think anyone (almost anyone: with whatever amount of learning, auto, or classical ) thinks space is actually a perfect vacuum. Relatively, sure. An ocean teaming/teaming with forces is more like it, but, well, then what’s the point of conveying the idea of space itself whatsoever at all somewhere along the way then — as in , absence — if there is none (again, relative - what’s not?) Catch 22, but not really even. Hence, what I described earlier on to BF was an oversimplification. Largely because I don’t think that someone asking the questions he had would easily appreciate something like Maxwell’s fine variable structure, Dirac’s Eqtn, etc. Conceptually, it’s helpful, a useful terming of things for people looking for a simple approximate answer. With that said, I don’t think that’s enough for you not to get into Hogwarts.

Ok, as for the paywall question.
I would say, yes. Possibly as a one time deal, though. [ well no shit..but] (Depending on a few things, like pricing, and what the purchase entails) Then again that doesn’t mean much coming from myself, as I’m not a very typical person. So, in that regard, I don’t really know where you could try pitching the idea, fishing for hits, so to speak, but I’m almost positive that there’s a nitch for it somewhere. I would maybe try reaching out to someone who has experience as a collaborative member of a team in the areas of marketing for study & experimentation purposes. Also, connected papers, since, they’re dope. Ha. I would try sci-&-mathematics conferences, clubs, & schools/institutions; aimed at certain kinds of students and or preferably faculty — depends though. ^ that’s probably too old fashioned, idk. I don’t use any other social media beyond Shroomery & Youtube, so I’m not up to date about what’s available in terms of how to monetize your ideas and work in ways that you could begin doing more or less immediately somehow. I’m sure there’s a way though. ![]() Hbu, what are you thinking in terms of the where to cast that old net ? -------------------- Give me Liberty caps -or- give me Death caps Edited by The Blind Ass (05/06/24 05:54 PM)

To anyone who understands, but the issue has been making it clear.
As I tend to do, I have a template for the exact methodology behind the calculation of this deviation from the index of refraction number and what it entails. Because I did this calculation for the neutron star merger GW817, AND, the black hole merger GW914. This proposal suggests that recalibrated low-energy scale axions are the solution to the strong CP (Charge Parity) problem in quantum chromodynamics (QCD).

Integrating theoretical models of scalar axions with the standard model of particle physics offers a structured approach to analysing existing Large Hadron Collider (LHC) data. This integration is crucial for understanding how scalar axions might interact with electric and magnetic fields, guiding researchers in identifying potential signatures such as missing energy or anomalous particle behaviours indicative of axion interactions. Such theoretical groundwork is essential for the Environmental Field Management theory, which seeks to catalyse discussions and inspire further research into these complex interactions, ultimately aiming to unravel the intertwined nature of fundamental forces and particles.
The potential discoveries from this methodological approach could be profound. Detecting scalar axions, or even observing hints of their presence in LHC data, could lead to significant academic publications, further experimental proposals, and a broad reconsideration of existing dark matter theories. This, in turn, might generate new inquiries into the role of axions within the universe and their interactions with other known particles and forces. This academically persuasive approach not only optimises the use of existing resources but also embodies the principle of scientific thriftiness. By revisiting and re-analysing the copious amounts of data already collected by LHC experiments, researchers are equipped to explore new theoretical territories without the immediate financial and logistical challenges associated with new experimental setups. This strategy enhances the efficiency of scientific research and accelerates the pace of discovery in particle physics, potentially ushering in new eras of understanding and technological innovation. This is all leading towards an educational slideshow on Scalar-Axions I think. Quote: From @2:00 Quote: @5:50 Quote: @10:50 Edited by sudly (05/10/24 02:17 AM)

The Environmental Field Management Theory is progressing well, having established a mathematically robust foundation for the assertion that the index of refraction n can diverge from its standard value in a vacuum. The theory further posits that variations in fundamental constants, such as the fine structure constant, are indeed possible, albeit strictly limited to deviations of no more than 1 part in 10^15.

I suppose holding onto notions that these secrets can be sold won't help to expand them to the greater public. The 'secret sauce' doesn't exist to the observer if it isn't shared.
Our kindness may be the most persuasive argument for that which we believe.

Beyond the mathematical validations, consider this: when two neutron stars collide, these stellar explosions are so powerful that they can temporarily slow down the speed of light coming from them, but only for a very brief moment—just a second or two. In layman's terms, during a neutron star merger, the fabric of the universe briefly gets thicker, causing light to slow down as it passes through. This doesn’t mean the universe is alive or making decisions; it’s more like a brief reaction to an incredibly intense event. On a smaller scale, the immense energy and conditions affect the tiny particles and forces that make up everything, temporarily changing how fundamental particles behave. This doesn’t imply that the particles are choosing to change; it’s a brief response to the intense conditions. The neutral interpretation is that both the universe's fundamental properties and its smallest building blocks can be influenced by extreme events, highlighting the intricate and sensitive nature of the cosmos.
Applying this to views of my own personal universe, it suggests that my fundamental nature and the smallest aspects of who I am can be influenced by intense events and experiences. Just as the universe's response to a neutron star merger is a temporary yet significant alteration, my reactions to life's extreme events can momentarily change my behaviour and interactions. This doesn’t mean I am completely controlled by these events, but rather, I am responsive to them. This perspective underscores the balance between my inherent traits (nature) and the experiences that shape me (nurture), showing that while my life operates under certain deterministic laws, it also exhibits a dynamic interplay where extreme conditions can temporarily alter my behaviour and responses. It reflects a nuanced blend of agency and constraint in my personal universe, where intense experiences can have significant impacts, but they are part of a larger, interconnected system that is both resilient and adaptable. This begs the question of what it is to be considered an intense experience. In the context of my personal universe, an intense experience is one that profoundly affects me, whether emotionally, mentally, or physically. It’s an event or situation that shakes the foundations of my being, much like a neutron star merger shakes the fabric of the universe. These experiences can be positive, like falling deeply in love or achieving a significant life goal, or negative, like experiencing a loss or facing a major life crisis. The intensity is not merely in the event itself but in the impact it has on my inner world, my thoughts, emotions, and perceptions. It’s something that leaves a lasting imprint, even if the actual event is brief, because it forces me to adapt, grow, and sometimes fundamentally reevaluate aspects of my life. In this way, the notion of intensity is deeply personal and unique to each individual, reflecting the dynamic interplay between our inherent nature and the transformative power of our experiences. Sometimes, these brief yet intense moments can last for my version of forever, profoundly shaping who I am and how I perceive the world. While we all already know our hearts are made of stardust, perhaps stardust itself is made by Big Bangs. This concept highlights that the matter forming our universe is the remnant of ancient cosmic events, particularly the Big Bang, where not all matter interacted with light during the early universe. This leftover matter, which didn't react during the cooling period post-Big Bang, forms the basis of everything we see today. This idea doesn't necessarily support the existence of parallel universes in the traditional sense. Instead, it suggests that the variations and reactions we observe are unique and specific to their own circumstances and conditions. These are not mere reflections of our universe but rather distinct reactions to their own unique environmental stimuli. However, if we consider the notion of parallel universes, we might imagine them as bubbles made of Big Bangs within an exponentially expanding rift. Each bubble represents a universe formed by its own Big Bang, with its own unique set of physical laws and conditions. These bubbles are part of a vast, ever-expanding cosmic rift, each developing independently and reacting to its own unique circumstances. This perspective underscores the individuality and specificity of cosmic events, suggesting that while local deviations may occur, they are not parallel reflections of our own universe but are unique universes in their own right. According to this theory, there is also the potential that the cold spot in the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) could be the result of a Big Bang. The cold spot, specifically known as the Eridanus Supervoid, could represent a region influenced by the remnants of another Big Bang, a bubble universe intersecting with our own. This suggests that the cold spot might be a point where our universe’s Big Bang interacted with another, leaving a distinct imprint. This possibility adds another layer of complexity to our understanding of the universe, indicating that cosmic phenomena we observe could be influenced by interactions with other Big Bangs, reinforcing the interconnected and dynamic nature of the cosmos.

You'd think so, but we already have LIGO and preceding data to peer into those kinds of places. With all the light we see, we can look billions of years into the past from billions of light years away already. We've already waited for those beams to come to us, and all we did was read them.
In the past or future, some big ass gravity wave probably came from the cold spot. Such data would only add further credence to the theory being proposed: that extreme stellar mergers marginally slow light for a few seconds, temporally dictated by their merger's scalar properties. Bigger booms slow light for longer. We have existing technological capabilities to study distant cosmic events and gravitational wave data supports the hypothesis that extreme stellar events effect the speed of light.

Quote: I just realised that I didn't specifically share the surmising image and name of the hypothesis to cap off what I'm actually proposing. It's The Big Bang Spectrum Hypothesis. Quote: We can't forget we now have Evidence of Non-Uniform Expansion. Quote: The Big Bang Spectrum Hypothesis provides a framework for understanding the universe's formation as a series of high-energy events rather than a single, uniform explosion. This perspective aligns with recent observations of non-uniform expansion and offers a more nuanced view of the cosmos's complex and dynamic history. By considering the universe as shaped by multiple events, we gain a deeper appreciation for the diverse phenomena observed in the cosmos. It's my view that the resulting pattern of the Yonshakudama shell shows a beautiful, complex structure, akin to the non-uniform expansion observed in the universe. Edited by sudly (05/16/24 05:47 PM)

Quote: "I ain't got a good reason to keep believing all the bad and the good shit turn out even." I understand this sentiment. Life is full of twists and turns, and often, it feels like there's no clear balance between the good and the bad. I've come to accept that life is not about ensuring that everything balances out perfectly. Instead, it's about experiencing and embracing the journey as it unfolds. In the grand tapestry of existence, every thread, whether bright or dark, has its place. The challenges and adversities we face are just as important as the moments of joy and triumph. They shape who we are, teach us resilience, and deepen our understanding of what it means to be human. I've learned to find peace in acceptance. Rather than expecting life to be fair or even, I focus on the present moment and what it offers. I acknowledge the difficulties and appreciate the blessings, no matter how small. This mindset doesn't mean ignoring the struggles, but rather recognising that they are part of the broader experience of life. Ultimately, I've realised that seeking balance in every event can be a source of frustration. Instead, I let go of the need for everything to even out and embrace the ebb and flow of life. In doing so, I find a deeper sense of contentment and serenity, appreciating life for what it is; a series of unpredictable yet meaningful moments. Edited by sudly (05/16/24 09:17 PM)
