The paper says, that on Earth's surface "gravitational field on an inside observer is effectively dampened". Thus my question.

Hi! How this paper relates to the equivalence principle? http://arxiv.org/pdf/gr-qc/0701084.pdf "in contrast to the situation with static gravitational forces, the effects of accelerative gee-forces on the internal observer are increased"

I have an (amateur) interest for reading about alternatives to SM. However, I think I would need much time to comprehend papers like the one in the topic of this thread, this is why I asked you first, if the paper goes against known empirical facts, to the extent that would likely make its...

That is very interesting. I wonder, if any of these theories came to at least a moderately precise derivation of the elementary charge, that would need at least a single constant less, when compared to the Standard Model?

I purposedly wanted to draw the wave, and not photons. Let the source moves relatively to some observer. Photons in other images are shown as little balls, that follow their source. So they move diagonally, relatively to the observer. Why waves would do so? Is the bottom image correct for...

Perhaps I kow already. The direction should be diagonal, because the pipe moves.

Hello, I would like to understand the Michelson–Morley interferometer, but with the laser being an omnidirectional photon source and a pipe. http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/6520/interferometer.png There are two pipes, but only one transmits light. The other absorbs the light, because...

The paper hypothesizes, that a photon could split into two, each having opposite topology. These would produce opposite charges out of a normal electric field produced by a photon. The paper cites 17 references, that try to explain the electron as a field phenomenon. Is this explained...

"Is the electron a photon with toroidal topology?" - what is that? Hello, there s a paper from 1996 http://members.chello.nl/~n.benschop/electron.pdf I have no knowledge to understand the paper, but I am very interested in how two photons can produce an electron. I would like to try to read...

Oh well, so it is already answered in another thread ?t=463880, I do not post a full link as I am not allowed to do that by this forum. Someone claims there that it is not even decidable if the black hole forms at all for the external observer.

@Hurkyl By "now" I mean "now for any observer around, that is reasonably far from the event horizon, and for whom the black hole's center is mostly stationary". So if you jump into a black hole, then you are seen a bit redder. After a year, you produce a very long wave radiation only, and...

Hi. Wikipedia says, that for the external observer, time stops at the event horizon. Is then, for the external observer, anything falling below the event horizon? Or rather, every piece of matter stops before the horizon?
