High School Is Dark Matter Just Unseen Water Vapor?
I find it curious that because we now detect the presence of matter which does not interact with EM radiation, something otherwise never "seen" before, we jump to the assumption that it is non-barionic. Just looking at history, before the detection of the neutron, the idea of a chargeless...- gjshep

Graduate Is Light a String in the Vibrating Geometry of the Universe?
Geometry? Is there any convergence upon a geometry of these vibrating strings? I've often thought WFHagen's Engergiewirbel could be thought of as string geometry - though I'm not sure he would agree. What I found exciting was that this single force vector (string?) could be used explain pair...- gjshep

Graduate Time for a Poll: Higgs Mass Prediction
Nice summary, thanks! Do you know where I can find a reference list of single-field theories? So far W.F Hagen's work on nuclear energiewirbel seems to offer the most promise.- gjshep

Graduate Problem on tritons and deuterons
I wouldn't categorize that explanations as "why", but it's the current leading theory. "feels attractive force" is a concept with no structure, but I don't disagree. True, He^4 is the most stable known nuclei, but there may still be baryonic nuclear structures "larger" but more stable. One...- gjshep

Graduate Un-Standard Model: Falsifying the 5% Understanding of Mass in the Universe
Epicircles were not thrown out because they were useless. They were very usefull - and correct - at predicting planetary motion. Regardless, the Epicircle model was wrong. Well, I'd say we continue research on the SM scale because that is the currently "winning" model. We can tweak it and...- gjshep

Graduate Problem on tritons and deuterons
Why would even=stable? Yes, He4 is stable AND seems to be a fundamental building block for heavier elements as He4 is often a decay component. I believe there is a fundamental "structure" to He4 that gives it its stability, though I will admit that the "even" P/N count may provide for this...- gjshep
