My response: The article contains a ludicrously understated assessment of the situation: Indeed, several physicists are skeptical of these results precisely because they appear to contravene physical law. Here's reality: Within a mere 5 weeks of the March 1989 press conference by Pons and

The formation of a vortex pair is the cause of the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect. The electron causes the applied constant magnetic field to form a pair of magnetic vortexes connected to the electron and those vortexes each take some charge from the electron. On Sat, Nov 29, 2014 at 8:52 PM, H

Robin, don't beat yourself up too badly about having a short term mental block since it happens to all of us. Energy can be conserved in an elastic collision such as you mentioned. Of course the momentum is modified in that case because the velocity changes direction. We started this
