The theory of special relativity is a well built construction. Everybody knows these famous formulas:
m'= m /(sqr) , s'= s * (sqr) and t'= t / (sqr).

See the schema in the row, it appears a strange constant: m*s = m'*s'.
This constant was hidden until today, because we were unable to calculate its value, since there was no common unit of mass and space. Using Dr. Lajtner's theory now we get the common unit.
So we can calculate this constant for example in kg or even in yards.

What does it mean?

It means, that relativity is based on a secret constant. ohmy.gif

A constant which is absolutely not relative blink.gif

Don't misunderstand, relativity is right. I would say: Relativity is like the Sun and now we are able to see the Solar System.

Somebody asked me where to find more details about Lajtner's theory. In his book, and on his site Physics of Thought --> main menu -- > physics sub menu --> papers sub sub menu

If Dr. Lajtner's right, he has found a new physics constant. Congratulation! biggrin.gif
(I do think, he is right. Using this kind of physics he is able to explain how thought and consciousness work (see his book))

Those are special cases. The proper general ones here are considerably less pleasant and do not satisfy the equation you're putting forth, that m'.s' = m.s.

This is nonsense. Firstly the fact that mass and time are dilated in schematically reciprocal manners is obvious and something anyone who has done relativity will have come across. Secondly even if your equations were always true they would not imply what you think they do.

If your equations hold then the statement m'.s' = m.s means that for a given physical set up the quantity mass*time is frame independent so you can pick any set of inertial coordinates and you'll still get the same quantity. This is entirely different from your claim which is that m.s is truly constant for all set up. Obviously that is not the case.

You have failed to understand what a Lorentz transformation actually does. It allows you to go from one set of coordinates to describe a system to another set of equally valid coordinates. It's the same system viewed in two different ways. What you're claiming is that Lorentz transforms relate physically different set ups. This is nonsense.

Actually it means you're wrong a lot.

You haven't even grasped what Lorentz transformations do in special relativity. Simply ignoring me because I'd said things you don't want to hear doesn't make you magically right. You started with the wrong equations, you used incorrect methods and you reached a false conclusion. And in doing so you demonstrate how little you know about special relativity.

Can you retort anything I said or are you going to simply evade questions because you don't want to admit you're wrong?

Hmmm. Alphnumeric (hi, by the way), let's not be too harsh on the guy. I see you are awaiting some reply from proamator. I hope he is cognizing with his relative position regarding responding to the questions.

What makes me disturbed is the relatively short measurement of time it took for proamator's envisionment to incorporate a "theory" that lacks a comprehensive inclusion of a mutitude of celebrious theologians, not to mention that the "physics" of what Dr. Lajtner's theory relies on does not meet the expectations of the universal language.
proamator, you appear to have unwitingly embraced another "jump on the religous bandwagon" and asked then "Could this be true?".

Of course it could be true. ...and that would require melding opposing forces.
I myself still evision a magnitude of various versions of what relativities and special relativities encompass when creating various models of our perceived reality.
I feel you, AlphaNumeric, are disturbed because of the spin Dr. Lajtner's theory throws into the accepted satisfying mathematical model. At least I perceived this from your response.... and yes I give you every right to be disturbed.....
You always say so well..."Let's get the facts straight, guy." wink.gif

The Lorentz transformations are mathematical devices, I am speaking about physical phenomenon. There must be something somewhere (a constant), without this constant Lorentz transformation wouldn't work. The transformation works in physics because only the form changes and not the point.
The new thing is not the constant exists (m*s = m'*s' it is trivial), but the calculable value of this constant. Until now nobody was able to tell this value. The thing is that this value exists and Dr. Lajtner's got it (and he was able to write it in one single constant).
About thought. What kind of thoughts do you have? Do your thoughts have energy? (The answer is yes, but what do you think about? )And how can be described your thought energy? Do you have any ideas? Dr. Lajtner does. Why so angry?

The speed of light is sometimes ~300.000 km/sec, sometimes 61 km/hour (near (and of course about:)) 0 Kelvin), sometimes 450.000 km/sec (fast light). Why? Who decides what is the correct velocity for a given photon. I think, the photon itself. How can decide a photon? Please think, there must be a constant behind the light.
How does a photon know that he has to have a spin if the other photon is 1000 Ly far from him. Please think, there must be something faster than light.

Utterly irrelevant to your claims and in no way retort what I said. You are making claims about special relativity which you aren't back up (because they are false) and now you're trying to deflect.

If Lajtner has got such results why aren't they published in a journal? When someone posts their work on a forum rather than in a journal it heavily suggests they are lying and are hacks because anyone with valid work would submit it to a journal for publication.

QUOTE (proamator+Mar 17 2010, 09:21 PM)

Don't try to deflect. If you have the results you claim you wouldn't be dancing around avoiding direct questions. Lajtner is a hack. Reading his website makes that much very very clear. What precisely is he a doctor of? For some odd reason his CV doesn't mention it, which seems a little strange as its usually very important on a CV to state what your qualifications are in.

Are you Lajtner? If you are at least that explains why you peddle his work. Otherwise it means you're an idiot who believes Lajtner, who is obviously also an idiot.

Proof you don't know any special relativity. c is the speed of light IN A VACUUM. Its a constant. Light moving through a material like water or glass does move slower but that has nothing to do with special relativity.

Learn basic physics before you go advertising the work of hacks.
proamator
I AM sorry but you don't understand the most important thing.
Photon has more than one velocity, it depends on his environment. So photon uses different speeds in different 'matters', he 'knows' how fast he can go in the different environments.
So environments regulate the speed of light. The question: they run the speed of photon, or they run the input of photon's algorithm which regulates its speed?

The fact you only understand (and you understand nothing more right now but you will, i do hope) is the number 300.000. You're right. 300.000 is a constant in vacuum.

The constant getting from m*s is constant in vacuum and water, in hot and in cold.
And one more important thing: photon is BIG (please see earlier what does BIG and SMALL mean. m*s is a constant which has SMALL part and BIG part.

You tell me I don't know anything then you come out with that bull. You clearly have no grasp of relativity because you are wrong in your claims about it and if you knew even enough to pass a 1st year course in it you'd know just how far from correct you are.

You don't understand frame dependence. If m*s is constant under Lorentz transformations it means that two inertial observers in relative motion measure the same value for the same object. A different object would have a different value. You have failed to grasp the fundamental concept of what a Lorentz transformation is. Thus proving you are below the understanding of the average 1st year physics undergraduate.

And you obviously know you're full of crap because you avoid my questions. If you have nothing to hide you'll tell me why this work isn't published in a journal. You'll tell me what 'Dr' Lajtner is actually a doctor of because I doubt its physics. If your work isn't *** why aren't you submitting it to journals?

I went to Lajtner's site again today....
..noticed that all references to Jesus were removed!
Lajtner, on his web site, had excerpts contributing his "discovery" as an explanation
for how jesus performed his "miracles" according to the bible.

Also, although not unaccepted, he wants to sell a book.


But you know, he HAS been able to use his thoughts to turn a disc, as depicted on his site in the movie section. Others apparently can move the curser on a computer monitor simply by "cupping" their hands over the mouse and using thought....as seen in the movie clips. huh.gif

That last post did not follow through in explaining my HIGH reservations for Dr. Lajtner's attachement to Capitolism. i.e. the need he demonstrates to withhold full information until a certain financial trade is accomplished. Exchanging "goods" so to speak. What with a discovery as groundbreaking as Tamas claims, he concentrates more on printed paperwork. Although, I have to give credit for his investment into the economy and further the printing industry's employment. I suppose his "book" on a coffee table here and there would only enhance his objective of stimulating thought.

Tamas Lajtner's focus should rather be toward expanding the self-important website to include explaining the Phenomena he presents on his site. By revealing more information regarding his knowledge of "thought transfer", he would be opening up his inner physipsych characteristics to the whole of mankind(or at least to those who visit his site).

He really is, at this point, and considering his technical theories are not meeting the standards of the universal language, "blowing his own horn". And quite selfishly, if I might add.

You don't understand the absolute behind relativity. You are speaking about Lorentz transformation, I speak about physics phenomena. Time unit are getting longer, not seem to get longer. It comes out of the characteristics of the meeting of space and matter.

Different values? 1 meter is 1 meter, 1 kg is 1 kg and 1 sec is 1 sec.

Of course 5 sec are 5 sec and 100 meters are 100 meters.

By the way you don't have to understand this kind of physics and I see you won't. You will understand only that case if you understand: the values you get from Lorentz transformation are mathematical values but there is an existing (living) value -- that is space and mass work together like this.

I understand a great deal about relativity. I am not an 'expert' but I have working quantitative understanding in relativity. You say I won't but I already have. The case in point are the Lorentz transformations and how they alter the coordinates. You get t = t'.gamma and L = L'.gamma by applying Lorentz transformations to the coordinates of one inertial frame to get the coordinates of another. You have failed to grasp what they actually mean.

I hope you are old. This is your law from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Arthur C. Clarke formulated the following "law" of prediction:

When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.

Example:

“There is not the slightest indication that nuclear energy will ever be
obtainable. It would mean that the atom would have to be shattered at
will.” — Albert Einstein, 1932

Irrelevant. You are not claiming some new physical model to replace the old one, you're claiming something exists within special relativity which no one has seen before. You make a claim about special relativity. I have already explained how special relativity is not as you imagine and your result does not exist. This isn't a matter of me denying some new view of nature, its about pointing out that your logic is wrong.

2+2=5 isn't true regardless of who says it and saying "2+2 is not equal to 5" is entirely valid, you couldn't trot out your quote for that because you're making a claim about something which is easily falsifiable. If your claim can be proven wrong then its wrong. The quote you speak of is about people denouncing new ideas but being unable to prove them wrong. Anyone who knows how to do special relativity coordinate transformations will know that your claims are wrong.

So how can you claim to have found something right then? Applying your logic to your own work means that you have absolutely no right to claim you've done anything worth looking at.

But obviously your logic is wrong. We can know whether plenty of things are right or wrong. 2+2=10 is wrong. The Sun revolves around the Earth is wrong. Ice is hot is wrong. You should be a little less black and white and realise that just because you can't know everything doesn't mean you can't know something.
