If there's so much activity in the "vacuum", it's surprising there's apparently no evidence of photons interacting with those virtual particles, if they exist. If such interactions were occurring, presumably there would be some blurring of the spectral lines of stars we can observe. AG Quantum Foam is falsified for the same reasons Tired Light is falsified. Other than regions of gas and dust, the universe is remarkably transparent. But Quantum Foam has an additional hoop to jump; it requires photon interaction with particles that violate conservation of energy (aka virtual particles). And forget about the Casimir Effect. It can be shown to follow classically from Wan der Waals forces. AG -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
