PeterDonis replied to the thread Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes?.Then it probably wasn't a good idea for you to describe explicitly in this thread how to do that. (Not that I think the radio astronomy... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread I Violation of Bell Inequality with unentangled photons.Your two assumptions are inconsistent. If a classical model matches the experimental results, the experimental results cannot violate...
-
PeterDonis replied to the thread Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes?.I still don't understand. You're describing ways in which the accuracy of detection could be improved. That would involve continuing...

PeterDonis replied to the thread Insights Quantum Entanglement is a Kinematic Fact, not a Dynamical Effect.You might not understand that @Greg Bernhardt did not write the Insights article that is referenced, and is not the right person to ask...

Like.
Basic research is founded on the basis of advancing knowledge, not with necessarily achieving a particular goal. History has taught us... -
PeterDonis reacted to fresh_42's post in the thread Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes? with Like.
If you were right, then why are the observation times on our existing telescopes notoriously overbooked? Source: ALMA Certainly not...

PeterDonis replied to the thread Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes?.I don't understand. Changing location--to space or on the Moon--does increase the resolving power available. You've explained why...

PeterDonis replied to the thread I A sufficient condition for integrability of equation ##\nabla g=0##.Mathematically, sure. But math isn't the same as physics. In physics, we pick a specific connection for physical reasons, regardless of...
-
PeterDonis replied to the thread I A sufficient condition for integrability of equation ##\nabla g=0##.Um, solve the differential equation? If you know the connection is the Levi-Civita connection for some metric, then you have a...

PeterDonis replied to the thread I A sufficient condition for integrability of equation ##\nabla g=0##.You missed my point. My statement in post #29, which is a completely uncontroversial fact, contradicts your claim that I quoted. That...

PeterDonis replied to the thread A Gravitational Analysis of Wide Binaries.Then why did you talk about it in the OP? And in other subsequent posts? You can't have it both ways. If you don't want to talk about...

PeterDonis replied to the thread I A sufficient condition for integrability of equation ##\nabla g=0##.The Levi-Civita connection, which will have nonzero curvature in any metric that is not the flat Minkowski metric, can be derived purely...

PeterDonis replied to the thread A Gravitational Analysis of Wide Binaries....claims to be an alternative explanation of the Pioneer Anomaly, among other things. You said so yourself in the OP of this thread. So...

PeterDonis replied to the thread A Gravitational Analysis of Wide Binaries.I couldn't say. You'd have to ask him. But hand-waving arguments on your part are worth a lot less than looking at what the paper...
