You are not being fair to the members of this forum. You could put in more effort in trying to find answers. I did a search J. Michael Shull mentioned in the article and found his home page.

I never had the intent of making someone else do my work or research. I simply just put out a topic that may have been something new that would be of interest from the people of this forum. Nobody has to reply to the topic. Does this dismiss the idea of dark energy forces or is this independent of that?
