Demystifier's latest activity

Indeed, not only that I think that emergent relativity resolves the conceptual problems of quantum foundations, but also the conceptual...

I haven't read his book "Field and their quanta", but I must say that many of the things he asserts in this paper are, at the very...

There is such a formulation, but it is very complicated. https://arxiv.org/abs/1410.3676

@mzhb the pilot wave is not permeating space, if by space you mean the usual physical 3-dimensional space. The pilot wave lives in a...

Fair point. I should have said 'gravitational force', not 'gravity'. The distinction is precisely the one between Christoffel symbols...

You're right, I misused the term 'hierarchy problem', that's about the coupling constants in the action, not about cosmological...

Gravity, of course, is not fictitious because the Riemann curvature is a tensor. But gravity is not the same thing as gravitational...

You correctly explained why gravity is dominant at cosmological scales, but the hierarchy problem is not about the cosmological scales...

There is an interesting similarity with magnetic force. The magnetic force on a point charge is orthogonal to its 3-velocity, so it does...

In physics there are (at least) two notions of momenta, canonical momentum and kinetic momentum. The kinetic momentum is defined as...

CH is not about what the reality is, but about what we can say about reality. It is a development and formalization of the Bohr's...

Indeed, the harmonic oscillator potential in physics typically arises due to Taylor expansion around a local minimum of the potential...

That potential, if you try to think of it as valid for all ##r## out to infinity, is an idealization and never actually happens, just as...

I think that you can say that a bound state must have lower energy than an unbound state, regardless of where you set the zero.

All this depends on where you set the "zero point" of energy--and you've implicitly made different choices for the two cases you...
