Apeiron archives from April 1995

New light on Redshift periodicities. (The ephemeris: focus and books).
April 1, 1995... I. Quantization in the Properties of Quasars and Planets Redshifts of quasars tend to be distributed in peaks which are separated by [(1.23).sup.n]. Jess Artem has pointed out this gives a fair representation of Bode's Law of planetary...

II. Astronomical quantization and spin.
April 1, 1995... If particle masses are viewed as a function of electromagnetic frequency, then quantization of masses from large to small can be better understood. In particular, the mysterious 72 km [s.sup.-1] quantization of galaxy redshifts can be...

Progress in New Cosmologies.
April 1, 1995... Review of Progress in New Cosmologies: Beyond the Big Bang (edited by Halton C. Arp, C. Roy Keys and Konrad Rudnicki; Plenum Press, New York, 1993, 361 pages) This volume is available from Dr. W. Tkaczyk, Institute of Physics, University of...

The "Aarau Question" and the de Broglie Wave.
April 1, 1995... The analogy between Einstein's "Aarau Question" of riding on a light-wave and--nevertheless--"seeing" the light-wave running away with velocity "c" and Mugur-Schachter's proposal to associate with every particle having non-zero proper mass a...

Inertial induction and the potential energy problem.
April 1, 1995... A model of dynamic gravitational interaction including velocity and acceleration dependent inertial induction terms has resulted in many interesting consequences. Exact equivalence of the gravitational and inertial masses and the redshifting...

Did the universe have a beginning? (@ Issue: correspondence, conference threads and debate).
April 1, 1995... The recent excellent article by Tom van Flandern on the evidence against the theory of the expanding universe stimulates an endeavour to get to the heart of the matter by logically reducing this complex problem to its simplest possible form....

Relativity of simultaneity: reply to John Watson. (@ Issue: correspondence, conference threads and debate).
April 1, 1995... From Mr. John Watson's considerations (Apeiron 2(1):42), we read with pleasure that: The authors' contention that simple velocity addition or subtraction is not in accordance with the PIVL is surely correct... The...

Physical magnitudes and the fundamental system of units. (@ Issue: correspondence, conference threads and debate).(Brief Article)
April 1, 1995... With this 23rd brief to the Academy of Sciences (Paris), I think it is time to wrap up the work I began fifteen years ago (see also Pesteil 1991, 1994). Before presenting the latest results that follow directly from what I set forth...

Light speed limits revisionism? (@ Issue: correspondence, conference threads and debate).
April 1, 1995... A response by P.J.E. Peebles et al., (Peebles 1995) to a letter in Scientific American seems to presume major revisions to Einstein's concepts of light speed limitations in special relativity. It was in answer to a letter (Williamson 1995)...

Revelations about Pulsars. (@ Issue: correspondence, conference threads and debate).
April 1, 1995... From time to time the mass media inform us about astronomers' discoveries of planets beyond the solar system. The person who claimed a discovery of the first planet outside the solar system was the contemporary astronomer Peter van de Kamp of...

Science, power and religion. (@ Issue: correspondence, conference threads and debate).
April 1, 1995... The rejection of new concepts by the scientific establishment in spite of experimental verification, is an unusual case of polarization of the scientific community into two opposite sides. The reasons for this splitting become clear if we...

Corrections.(Correction Notice)
April 1, 1995... Volume 2, Nr. 1: Page 5, line 18 of the abstract, read [[omega].sup.2] = [[??][m.sub.o][c.sup.2]/[??]|[sup.2] + [c.sup.2]k Page 8, equation (10) should read: [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] Page 9,...

Classical quantum theory.
April 1, 1995... From the extensive observations and the ideas of Newton and from classical physical optics the velocity of a quantum particle is given by w = [S/E], where S is the Poynting vector and E the wave energy density. Integrating w = [dr/dt] yields...
