How did you find PF?

I love physics and do it as a hobby. I also like to use AI to help me make new and exciting discoveries. I look forward to getting feedback for some of the papers I wrote. All feedback is welcome. All I ask is to please be friendly. I am looking forward to having some exciting conversations.

Hello and !


Some statements in your introduction conflict with our regulations and mission. We basically want to help students, or any other interested person, understand the current knowledge of physics as it is taught in universities around the world, and which can be found in textbooks or scientific journals. We find that this is ambitious enough considering the incredible branching science has developed during the last century. We meanwhile arrived in a jungle of specialized facts and models. We therefore decided not to debunk popular science, AI-generated statements, which are often false, but always incomplete, or personal ideas roaming the internet.

You are welcome to ask questions you will certainly have, since everybody has, but not so much to discuss the answers you think you figured out on your own. The main reason is that it usually would take entire lectures to even create a common ground for discussing such alleged answers. However, this is something we cannot provide here. Moreover, as there are thousands of lecture notes and textbooks easily available nowadays.

Hence, please feel free to ask the questions you usually ask an AI, but try to avoid those AI. They cannot replace a study comparable to a lecture. Physics, and not only physics, have become unbelievably complicated as soon as you get into the details. What we can certainly offer, are qualified answers, and a lot of articles, which you can find under INSIGHTS BLOG that offer a glimpse into and often a good summary of those specialized subfields.

Are we allowed to talk about new equations? Probably not. Thank you for your time.

Are we allowed to talk about new equations?

That depends. As long as the equations are from the mainstream scientific literature (peer-reviewed journal articles and standard textbooks), then you should be able to ask about them. Here is what we have in the PF rules about Acceptable Sources (see INFO at the top of the page):

Acceptable Sources:
Generally, discussion topics should be traceable to standard textbooks or to peer-reviewed scientific literature. Usually, we accept references from journals that are listed in the Thomson/Reuters list (now Clarivate):

Use the search feature to search for journals by words in their titles.

In recent years, there has been an increasing number of "fringe" and Internet-only journals that appear to have lax reviewing standards. We do not generally accept references from such journals. Note that some of these fringe journals are listed in Thomson Reuters. Just because a journal is listed in Thomson Reuters does not mean it is acceptable.

References that appear only on http://www.arxiv.org/ (which is not peer-reviewed) are subject to review by the Mentors. We recognize that in some fields this is the accepted means of professional communication, but in other fields, we prefer to wait until formal publication elsewhere. References that appear only on viXra (http://www.vixra.org) are never allowed.

If the equations are things that you've made up with the help of AI, then they are probably of no interest to anyone but yourself.

That's the hard truth.

I'll send you a DM.

The particular equation I have discovered reveals a new constant and I then independently derived that constant to legitimize the new constant. I then found an experiment that Einstein and Newton's theory does not predict properly. It is the wide binary problem. My new math using the new constant was able to accurately predict the wide binary anomaly. I guess I will just keep trying to find a journal that will peer review and publish my paper. There is one thing physics forum has not anticipated. What if someone really does discover the Unified Field theory as unlikely as that is, you will miss it. Oh well, the rules are the rules.
