What does the book point to, waves or particles? We all have plenty of
books and all cannot agree on the subject on radiation! In other words
they have placed their own interpretations of the observations seen
with the double slit experiment as over ruling of all and cast in
stone. This is what the physics forum sponsered by Scientific American
said to me as they banned me because of my temerety in challenging
their position.In addition they stated that it is not possible outside
the physcics spectrum to challenge anything which thus puts all in the
spectrum of crackpots. Dr Davis of MIT provided the mathematics
that confirmed the presense of particles, but mathematics was not
considered a reputable answer compared to the majority argument that
the mathematical aproach was illegal.
So waves hold the majority in the books but by its very presence all
understanding of radiation has been stymied for the last hundred
years by the resistance to change without any accumpanying facts and
where physicists refuse to review to re examine what they state is now
"cast in stone." New books are written every year via plagarisation
for personal profit where the professor orders purchase of such books
for his pay off. Not one has come out with a review of radiation and
why progress has been stymied. And that goes for Radcom and QST who
have no real interest in advancing the hobby of its members.

Perhaps it is a problem with how you do searches. On this pagehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage
There is no mention of particles as the means of transport to the
shield. Electrons are mentioned as they are part of the cage and respond
to applied fields.
Yes they clearly state electrons which is a particle.

But the electron is NOT how the signal gets to the shield. You need to
read more carefully.


It is extremely
small and of minimul mass which is why Einstein states that the speed
of light is a maximum.
The article you point to shows charges or fields which must be carried
by something like particles as proven in other theories such as
Quantum theory.
Fields and waves book by Ramo etc constantly lean on boundary laws
thru out there book and boundary laws clearly state the relationship
of static particles to equations relative to radiation.
If we are to refer to waves then accelleration demands mass so we need
a connection between waves and mass.

Try thinking in terms of fields and charges.


Assuming it is a wave that impinges on a Faraday cage we then have to
determine what half a charge comes about so that the charge cancels
and thus reverts to a time varying current. Again another puzzle!

A puzzle because you apply your misconceptions BEFORE first
understanding what is there.


Anyway the article that you point to shows a point charge which is
certainly not a wave which would be represented by a line of the
length used in top band.

Only because you interpret it that way. The article does not mention
point charge as causing the behavior, externally applied fields are
mentioned.

As far as penetration goes the mass involved is always of the same
mass and ikt is only the charge that varies in frequency as shown by
the radius of spin in helical form of the charge.Thus again we have to
find a connection between wavelength and charge.Another obstical....


If you can point out why one cannot use boundary rules so that
particles are recognised as the carriers of charge the same as with
Quantum theory I would be very gratified.

Gauss' laws refer to flux and do not require carriers of charge to exist.

None of the group excepting
newcomers such as your self has provided proof of the inelligability
of my approach so I am forced to explore other facets
of radiation to determine why my aproach is in error.

A lot of that has to do with your inability to communicate adequately.

I apologise for not being clear in the subject that creats problems
for newcomers such as yourself but to re iterate the discussion which
has been going on for years would be quite a hardship. However if as
a newcomer you can supply why static particles cannot be associated
with propergation you would be doing something different to the group
that are relying on zero facts and replacing it with insult and spam.

If you are trying to present a new concept, then it is up to you to show
why, and that, it is right. Do that in a clear convincing way, with the
appropriate math, and you might foster a worthwhile discussion.

The wrong way to do this is throw a half-baked idea out and expect
others to accept it. You'll never prove a point that way.


Thanks for responding in a sensible way .


I would like to point out in
addition that existing antenna programs with optimizer based on
Maxwells equations rely very heavily on the maintenance of equilibrium
which is the foundation of my aproach which includes particles and
certainly not waves.

Which of these antenna programs have you analyzed to the level to make
this statement? Have you looked at the source code of the programs?

If we are going to throw out such programs we surely must know why
before we take such a step when the presence of particles appear to be
in the majority of aproaches.

Why throw out the programs? Using waves is perfectly correct and
adequate for them.

Waves provide an adequate model for propagation. Particles may be
adequate at the quantum level. Both are ways to describe something.
Neither may adequately describe thing in all cases. They are models for
what happens. As long as the models are applied appropriately, there is
no problem. Applying a model inappropriately is bound to cause problems.

How do you expect us to know what you are really talking about?
I am fully aware that I am not clear with my questions but I have to
live with that.
The point is that I am still trying to find out why the group does not
accept the extension of a static field in equilibrium cannot be
connected to Maxwells equations when adding a time varying field a
train of thought covered by boundary rules that are used in many
places.

That is solely because YOU can't describe your concepts adequately.
Putting "+t" on both sides of an equation does not necessarily lead to
anything meaningful. IF you were to describe your thoughts adequately,
perhaps someone would show you where you make errors.


If we accept the above then we have agreement with

Ok so you are not interested in a debate. I thought that as a newby
you might just be a little uncomfortable with the idea of using
Quantum theory if you desire particles or to use classical physics if
you desire waves. Obviously it is very difficult to accept change.

Joe, I wanted a debate as to why adding a time varying field to a
boundary enclosed static particles in equilibrium is illegal. This is
in opposition to what the books say.
My whole theory lives or dies on how this is resolved. Nobody will
provide technical details as to why this is illegal. I supplied what I
believe supports the idea but nothing can be considered "proof" to
those who oppose change. If computer programs support retaining
equilibrium at all times then that is an independent result. If
Quantum physics chooses
particles over waves again that is an independent result which
questions conventional judgement. To accelerate a charge in the form
of a wave is un explainable in present science.Nor is the division of
same explainable with respect to the Faraday cage,
To provide an accelleration mass is a must but how a wave provides
such is stated no where. All of these in my mind questions the
validity of using boundary laws for which one
must also reflect equilibrium i.e. is it illegal? Why is it illegal?
It does follow the laws of Newton therefore Newtons laws are at
risk.Yes we are talking about the movement of flux
but movement requires the addition of time. So again the salient point
in this debate is the
addition of a time varying field to an arbitrary boundary containing
static particles deviate from the requirement of equilibrium in all
laws. Namely all statistics are placed on one side
of an equation that equals zero is a specific requirement. "Equal"
really means "equal" and not close enough for horse shoes.
For any sort of debate this central question must be resolved at the
beginning or there is no debate. Resolving this allows for progress
into other areas all of which depends on the above question. If nobody
can demonstrate why it is illegal then proof or truth is not
attainable. If we cannot debate technicalities of radiation then the
group is left to exchanging insults and spam or poll counting

Art,

The double slit experiment clearly points to particles or photons. The slits
are very narrow (otherwise the experiments don't work) and the wave like
properties are caused by the interaction of the particles with the atoms in
the walls of the slit as they pass through. The slit is modulating the
particles if you like.

We know that individual particles are involved because they can be counted
one by one through a detector.
We know that wave like properties are involved because of the effects
observed on a screen placed behind a diffraction grid.

The observed properties are due to influence exerted on the particles as
they pass through the diffraction grid by the atomic structure of the grid
itself. Unless the experiment were carried out at absolute zero, the atoms
in the walls of the slit are vibrating and must influence the photon as it
passes through.

At absolute zero, nothing would be moving, including the photon, so the
experiment collapses at this point.

Photons are particles that display wave like behaviour under particular
conditions.

I totally agree. Many things have attributes that other things have
but humans say that if it has a tail like a dog then it is a dog!
History shows that the interpretations ascertained from this
experiment was expanded to provide data to conclusavly say that
radiation" is" a accellerated wave and that is carved in stone i.e.
conclusive by physicists who made that descision without over sight
from another discipline.Cast in stone is a finality for physicists
who time after time dtate that their manipulation of mathematics prove
the existence of another particle that is predictable but we have just
not found it!
Now the shoe is on another foot, I have to provide an alternative PLUS
prove it where others don't have to.
To respond I used EXISTING LAWS and the mathematics that represent
them. Gauss stated his law as a measure of "an instant" in time
recognising that flux is mobile where at any "instant" of time the
boundary was in equilibrium. So I added a length of time where a time
varying field was added. All this being in cgs units. When the units
were changed to be the same as Maxwells equations (MKS) they showed
that they were one and the same which cemented the position of
particles as being present in the makings of radiation.
I am using common mathematics with established accepted laws and
nothing more but I am being asked to prove its legality which is
beyond reason.This establishes some consistency in the use of both
classical and other strains of physics that when applied to the same
problem also provides the same answer. What more can be said? Articles
now declare that interpretations made years ago are not as we thought,
but it is to late now for change as decisions in physics are the
result of polls and not reality.
