• Einstein's Mistakes

    From LaurenceClarkCrossen@21:1/5 to All on Mon Oct 21 03:42:28 2024
    "In "Lo!", Fort commented that Einstein 'has shown with his palsies the insecurities of that in science which has been worshipfully regarded as
    the Most High.'..."Nevertheless, the lay press lauded Einstein. After
    the horrors of the Great War, his theories had, in a wonderful phrase
    from Ohanian, 'a whiff of esoteric mysteries and gave the reading public
    some pleasant frisson without demanding any real mental effort.'
    Einstein's lecture tours and the 'propaganda and advertising campaigns'
    by publishers created a celebrity that still casts a shadow over others' work.... By the end of Ohanian's compelling book, we're familiar with Einstein's intellectual products, flaws and all. But we don't know how
    Einstein attained his theoretical insights and why he seemed so blind to
    his errors. Einstein had, Ohanian claims, 'an inclination to mysticism'.
    He formulated his ground-breaking theories by the 'habit of grubeln, or protracted, agonized brooding.'" - Mark Greener "Agonized Brooding" Book
    review of Ohanian's Einstein's Mistakes.

    The big idea was to debunk aether as that involved Hindu metaphysics.
    Nonsense physics was invented for that purpose.
    Radioactivity causing nukes justified the huge E in MCC.
    But in early 2000 Arindam's equation kinetically linking mass and energy explained nukes far better with no mysterious hocus-pocus.

    Mr. Hertz: "Heisenberg (1959, cited from the 1981 issue, pp 95-96)
    designates the mass-energy relationship as secure findings, though he
    describes the usual interpretation, a transformation of
    mass into energy, as a misunderstanding: 'It is occasionally maintained
    that the enormous amounts of energy released during the explosion of an
    atomic bomb come directly from the conversion of mass into energy and
    that one could only predict this gigantic amount of energy on the basis
    of the theory of relativity. However, this attitude arises from a misunderstanding. That great amounts of energy are stored in the atomic
    nuclei has been known since the experiments of Becquerel, Curie and
    Rutherford on radioactive decay. [...] The energy associated with the
    splitting of the uranium nucleus has the same origins as in the case of
    the [alpha-]decay of a radium nucleus, i.e. mainly from the
    electrostatic repulsion of the two parts into which the atomic nucleus
    is split. The energy released by an atomic explosion thus comes directly
    from this source and does not derive from a conversion of mass into
    energy.'" - "Catalogue of Errors for Both Theories of Relativity"

    Good to know. The divinity of Einstein comes from the power of this
    equation to explain atom bombs, to simple minds.

    That only the electrostatic forces underlying radioactivity and
    Arindam's formula relating mass and energy kinetically explain far
    better, had been suppressed for decades.

    Serber and Oppenheimer taught (1943) several waves of scientists that
    joined the Manhattan Project with lectures prior joining any team, and
    Serber wrote the booklet "Los Alamos Primer", where they taught that
    energy liberated in the fission of the atom was of electrostatic nature,
    due to the repulsion of the byproducts of the fission, plus radiation.

    Good.
    However text books on nuclear physics explain nuclear power using e=MCC
    as gospel truth.
    Eg, Kaplan.

    The numbers given in the booklet are almost a match with E=mc^2
    calculations of that epoch, but have NOTHING TO DO with relativity, as
    Serber wrote in his 1992 book, once some data of the project was cleared
    for publishing.

    Public should know that. Text books must be rewritten.

    But relativists, since 1945 (Time Magazine cover) hyper-hyped the figure
    of Einstein and relativism, and the cult succeeded in re-writing
    history.

    The damage must be undone, asap.

    Dr. Serber, 2nd. in command after Oppenheimer, CLEARLY AFFIRMED (in his
    1992 book, published once he got a security clearance) that the atomic
    bomb WAS COMPLETELY UNRELATED WITH RELATIVITY AND E=mc^2.


    He WROTE "Los Alamos Primer" in 1943, to teach recruited scientists
    about the power behind atom fission, and MADE CALCULATIONS that were
    present in the booklet, giving results close to 170 MeV of KE plus some radiation. And the calculations were done by using COULOMB'S FORCES in electrostatic repulsion, once two (or more) new heavy elements were
    produced in the atom fission.

    Of course there are Coulomb forces that accelerate the parts of
    the atom in a fission.

    And you know that this _confirms_ E = mc² because:

    One possible fission process is:

    1n + U-235 → Ba-141 + Kr-92 + 3n

    The atomic weight of these are well known

    Left side:
    1n 1.008664 u
    U-235 235.0439299 u
    -------------------
    236.0525939 u

    Right side:
    Ba-141 140.914412 u
    Kr-92 91.926156 u
    3n 3.025992 u
    ---------------------
    235.866560 u

    Lost mass: 0.1860339 u

    Generally:
    In a fission the mass of the constituents is less than
    the mass of the fissioned atom.
    ------------------

    All physicists knew that in 1939, obviously.

    https://www.atomicarchive.com/resources/documents/beginnings/nature_meitner.html
    Quote:
    "It seems therefore possible that the uranium nucleus has only small
    stability of form, and may, after neutron capture, divide itself
    into two nuclei of roughly equal size (the precise ratio of sizes
    depending on finer structural features and perhaps partly on chance).
    These two nuclei will repel each other and should gain a total kinetic
    energy of c. 200 Mev., as calculated from nuclear radius and charge."

    Meitner calculated from the electrostatic repulsion that
    the kinetic energy of the constituents would be ca 200 Mev.

    Quote:
    "This amount of energy may actually be expected to be available
    from the difference in packing fraction between uranium and the
    elements in the middle of the periodic system."


    'Packing Fraction' is defined as:
    ((atomic mass - atomic number)/(atomic number))1e4

    So when you know the 'packing fraction' of an element,
    you can find the 'mass defect' (atomic mass - atomic number).
    When an element A is split into two elements B and C,
    and you know the packing fractions of all of them,
    the difference in packing fraction between A vs B and C
    makes is possible to calculate the change in mass:
    (mass of A) - ((mass of B)+(mass of C))

    When Meitner found that this mass difference was equivalent to
    ca.200 Mev it could only be through E = mc².

    You know this, because I told you 5 years ago.

    So why do you pretend to be ignorant of the fact that all physicists
    (and chemists) at the time took E = mc² for granted?

    Yes lots of energy was created which destroyed a lot. Not by e=MCC but
    from Arindam's equation
    E=0.5mvv(N-k)N
    which explains all mass energy formations including all explosions.

    Equations of motion are about what forms
    the (conserved!) energy appears in, in the reaction products.

    Energy is continually created and destroyed via distance loss to
    background galactic noise in our infinite universe.

    Conservation laws apply to charges and thus mass.

    Heisenberg's statement shows that he knew E = mc².

    An atom isn't spitted because some mass decides to convert
    itself into energy. It is not the _cause_.

    When an atom is spitted, the kinetic energy comes from
    the repulsion of the protons, obviously.

    But as a _consequence_, the mass of the constituents will
    be less than the mass of of the atom before it was spitted
    according to E = mc².
    --------------
    If you heat a body with a bunsen burner, the body
    will be hotter, it will contain more heat energy.
    No energy is _converted_ into something else, the heat
    energy is still energy (excited electrons).

    As a _consequence_ the mass of the hot body will increase
    according to m = E/c². Some of the mass _is_ energy.

    E = mc² will always me fulfilled.
    It is a fundamental law of nature.

    And of course all the physicists at Los Alamos knew that.

    It's hopeless. RH is completely clueless when it comes to real physics.
    (and he is unwilling to learn)

    E = mc? is now thoroughly experimentally verified, and the atom bomb
    is part of the experimental evidence.

    Of course, but not really needed.
    Mass spectroscopy was invented by J. J. Thomson in 1913,
    and refined by his student, F. W. Aston. (discovering lots of isotopes)
    In 1932, Kenneth Bainbridge pushed the accuracy of it to about 10^-4,
    which was good enough to verify E = mc^2 directly, for atomic nuclei.
    So the mass excess of the Uranium nucleus of about 200 MeV
    was well known to 'everybody', well before WWII got started,

    essential role in the theory of fission. Albert Einstein had a part in
    alerting the United States government to the possibility of building an
    atomic bomb, but his theory of relativity is not required in discussing
    fission. The theory of fission is what physicists call a nonrelativistic >>> theory, meaning that relativistic effects are too small to affect the
    dynamics of the fission process significantly.
    Section 2 of the Primer gives a more exact calculation of the ratio of
    the
    energy released by the fission of a gram of uranium to the energy
    released by the explosion of a gram of TNT.

    Even if the atom bomb could have been made without E = mc?,
    the statement above shows that Serber, as all physicists,
    knew E = mc?, they all took it for granted.

    Serber doesn't say that E = mc? is not a valid theory,
    he says that E = mc? wasn't much help in making the atom bomb.

    So I ask you again:
    Why do you pretend to be ignorant of the fact that all physicists
    (and chemists) at the time took E = mc? for granted?

    It's hopeless. RH is completely clueless when it comes to real physics.

    "'The energy associated with the

    the [alpha-]decay of a radium nucleus, i.e. mainly from the

    Heisenberg's statement shows that he knew E = mc².

    An atom isn't spitted because some mass decides to convert
    itself into energy. It is not the _cause_.

    When an atom is spitted, the kinetic energy comes from
    the repulsion of the protons, obviously.

    But as a _consequence_, the mass of the constituents will
    be less than the mass of of the atom before it was spitted
    according to E = mc².
    --------------
    If you heat a body with a bunsen burner, the body
    will be hotter, it will contain more heat energy.
    No energy is _converted_ into something else, the heat
    energy is still energy (excited electrons).

    As a _consequence_ the mass of the hot body will increase
    according to m = E/c². Some of the mass _is_ energy.

    E = mc² will always me fulfilled.
    It is a fundamental law of nature.

    And of course all the physicists at Los Alamos knew that.

    Do they measure their own masses on an input-output basis?
    Do they explain any mass differences found in the e=MCC formula?

    By the way, you asked me to place the hyperplanes of simultaneity of

    This is unprecedented in the history of humanity, because no one draws relationships as precise, as clear, and as beautiful as me, with

    account the change of inertial frame of reference, and to adapt it to her
    own point-of-reference, that is to say her rocket, always at the origin of
    her frame of reference (it is space that accelerates and deforms around
    her, but her own rocket does not vary for her).

    It is therefore necessary to take into account the space-zoom predicted by Poincaré on the x-axis. Let D'=D.sqrt(1-Vo²/c²)/(1+cosµ.Vo/c)

    I then explained to you that in this example, there was a hint of
    reasoning (like in chess the winning move that only Kasparov will find,
    here it is the good doctor Hachel), and that to find the date on which
    Stella will receive her answer (she sends her message at six years old and receives her answer at 14 years old, on the way back), you have to use the diagram as follows.

    However, despite the beauty, clarity and logic of my relativistic
    thinking, it would seem that you still haven't understood anything, like a
    few other morons here, who don't understand anything about the theory of relativity, but spit on Hachel.

    All this is horribly stupid, tinged with jealousy and imbecilic

    The point is obviously:
    What is the meaning of the word "horizontal" in the context:
    "with horizontal hyperplanes, as logic would require."

    Why do logic require that hyperplanes must be "horizontal" as opposed
    to "vertical"?

    Paul! Paul! Please!!!

    It is perfectly normal, perfectly legitimate and completely scientific to propose, for a given individual, a representation of the space-time that
    is his.

    This has four dimensions. Three of space, and one of time.

    Paul! Paul! Once again, I beg you to believe me, it is as simple as that.

    To do this, we need x,y,z,t.

    However, if we want to represent this on paper or a 2D screen, we cannot
    do it. Eventually, a good graphic designer, by trompe l'oeil, can
    represent 3D.

    But in any case, we can position ourselves in the direction of movement
    (we then neglect y=0 and z=0).

    We then set a perfectly orthonormal frame (kindergarten level in France
    (3-6 years old).

    The spaces are defined on the abscissa, the proper times on the ordinates.

    It's as simple as that.

    A very good example of a relativistic frame as physicists should represent them, with x on the abscissa and tau on the ordinate, is the one I put on usenet.

    We see Stella, aged six, sending a message to Terrence who remained on
    earth, and waiting for the answer.

    We see that the answer cannot reach her before she has turned around, and
    that she will receive this answer on the way back. She is then aged 14.

    <http://nemoweb.net/jntp?ZFdynN8gr2EccwS6-0mvVsfO84M@jntp/Data.Media:1>

    Now you tell me: why the times in vertical and the distances in
    horizontal?

    I don't want to answer this kind of stupid questions.

    that is his.

    This has four dimensions. Three of space, and one of time.

    No, this is wrong!

    Coorect is:

    to any given axis of time there exist an orthogonal hyperplane of the
    present, which has three dimensions.

    But spacetime itself has complex values!

    It would make sense to take 'spacelike' as real and 'timelike' as imaginary.

    Now this picture can be rotated and after rotation another axis of time
    would exist, which also has a perpendicular hyperplane of the present
    (with three diemensions!).

    A mathematical construct, which would somehow fit, are so called 'complex-four-vectors' (aka 'bi-quaternions').

    These numbers have eight components, what makes them a little odd.

    But four (as number of dimensions) is imho wrong, because this would
    restrict the picture to the local environment, which has, of course,
    only one axis of time (and three axes in the hypersheet of the present).

    The Einstein fridge doesn't coll (this was at least found out by a bunch

    It is kind of 'three substances absorption cooler' (with ammonia, water

    (To me this 'fridge' does not look like a device, which could eventually
    cool. Therefore I would support the claim of those students.)

    A theory of my taste goes like this:

    the bomb was already known in 1930 and Szillard and Einstein played a
    role in its development (undertanken long befor 1930 and certainly not

    To reward Einstein and Szillard secretly, that patent was used, even if

    Yes, it was much older. Albert Einstein invented the atomic bomb in 1905...that is when it first came to him in his mind.

    From then on it became his passion and quest to make it happen.

    Einstein gave How To Build an Atomic Bomb classes in the 1920's...Enrico Fermi was a student. (Leo Zilgard also his main student)

    Enrico Fermi was intensively involved with Einstein's theory of relativity and traced the hidden power of atomic nuclei.
    In 1923, he wrote that it would probably not be possible to release this energy in the near future, "because
    the first effect would be an explosion so terrible that it would tear the physicist who tried it to pieces".
    He himself was to unleash this energy two decades later.






    The Soviets did something quite similar and regarded e.g. Andre Sacharov ('father' of the Soviet bomb) as 'enemy of the people' (for what reason
    I don't know).

    Albert Einsten went to Russia and showed them How To Build an Atomic Bomb. (and delivered all the designs)


    The atomic bomb itself was most likely already known befor WWII.

    A reason to think so:

    Einstein and Szillard patented their 'Einstein fridge' in 1930 in Berlin.

    The only known use of that device is as part of a fast breeding reactor (those reactors that produce plutonium).

    But for which purpose would you like to breed plutonium, if you had no
    atomic bomb?

    atomick reactors can really hot. (china simdrome)


    Our Sun is very hot. Why do you thing space is very cold? REFRIDGERATION.



    The Einstein fridge doesn't coll (this was at least found out by a bunch

    Albert Einstein before the Manhattan Project 'already' had in mind what the atomic bomb
    looked like, design like, weight of the bomb, all the internal components/ingredients, etc:


    "A single bomb of this

    type, carried by boat and exploded in a port, might very well destroy

    the whole port together with some of the surrounding territory. However,

    such bombs might very well prove to be too heavy for transportation by

    air." --Albert Einstein

    Sure, but what were they doing there in Los Alamos?

    To me it looked like a concentration camp for physicists.

    Sure: Los Alamos looked like barracks, which were placed remotely in the desert.

    But my assumption was, that the atomic bomb was much older than the Manhattan project, which had the purpose, to 'gag' the physicists and

    Yes, it was much older. Albert Einstein invented the atomic bomb in 1905...that is when it first came to him in his mind.

    From then on it became his passion and quest to make it happen.

    Einstein gave How To Build an Atomic Bomb classes in the 1920's...Enrico Fermi was a student. (Leo Zilgard also his main student)

    Really absolutely incredibly clever of him,
    considering that the Uranium 235 isotope wasn't discovered until 1936.

    "Enrico Fermi was intensively involved with Einstein's theory of relativity and traced the hidden power of atomic nuclei.
    In 1923, he wrote that it would probably not be possible to release this energy in the near future, "because
    the first effect would be an explosion so terrible that it would tear the physicist who tried it to pieces".
    He himself was to unleash this energy two decades later."

    "...the first effect would be an explosion so terrible that it would tear the physicist who tried it to pieces".--Enrico Fermi 1923



    Enrico Fermi discovered Uranium 235 isotope ...BEFORE 1936!


    Enrico Fermi was inspired by A;bert Einstein's class on How To Build an Atomic bomb.

    Einstein was secretly building an army of scientists to help him with ...The Uranium Bomb.

    "Perhaps it will prove possible to test this theory using bodies whose energy content is variable to a high degree (e.g., salts of radium). -- Albert Einstein (1905)

    "... it will prove possible to test this theory"



    Here is a quote from a student at Albert Einstein's classroom...




    In the 1920's when Albert Einstein was teaching his students
    How To Build an Atomic Bomb...and what was needed was to
    release this energy...

    A student asked him..
    "What do you need to make this happen?"

    Einstein responded, "You start with Radium."
