Re: [Fis] A Paradox
Dear Dr. Zou: Most interesting.I enclose a recently submitted manuscript for your perusal. Cordial wishes,Otto E.Rossler - Who can program the Einstein Rocketship? Otto E. Rossler1 and YaëlKolb1,2 1Faculty of Science,University of Tübingen, Auf der Morgenstelle 8, 72076 Tübingen, Germany 2University of Design (HfG), Lorenzstrasse 15, 76135Karlsruhe, Germany Abstract Acomputer-game version of the famous Einstein equivalence principle of 1907 isproposed. Surprising implications predictably follow. The idea appears worthchecking by the computer-game community as a contribution to science. (March 12, 2018) The Einstein rocketship of 1907 [1] consistsof a constantly accelerating vertical paper strip (interpreted as the interiorof a roaring rocketship) and an internal light ray that is continually emittedvertically along the strip from the bottom to the tip. Einsteinfirst solved this typical computer-game problem in his mind, to in this waypredict out of the blue sky the famous “gravitational redshift”: The ascendinglight ray on arrival at the tip is slowed in its frequency by a negativeDoppler effect (like the sound of a departing ambulance) because the point oforigin of the vertical light ray is constantly falling back from the tip duringthe time it takes the light to arrive although the distance remains unchanged.This at the time absurd prediction enables accurate car navigation to date. Thejust described “Einstein task” is only the first step (one-dimensional case).It has never been simulated even though this is of course possible and indeeddesirable. The young Einstein thereafter in the same 1907-paper looked also atthe two-dimensional case: How does a horizontal light ray that hugs the floorof the rocketship appear from the tip when made visible towards above throughsome smoke in the air? This mental image would later become the “light clock” –a laser pulse inside a glass tube with reflecting ends and a bit of glitterinside to make the ticking visible to the outside world. Programmingthis 2-D game to make it totally transparent, too, is a bit more difficult butis bound to teach something new. While the light pulse is progressinghorizontally down there, the bottom is constantly falling back from the tipwhile keeping its distance as we saw. Therefore, the horizontally advancinglight pulse downstairs necessarily does so in a locally downwards-slantedfashion relative to the tip. This is a first post-Einsteinian Einsteinianprediction (PEEP). Megaconsequences follow suit if the PEEP can be successfully programmed rather thanremaining a mere mental fantasy. For it logically follows that the light pathdownstairs is increased in its length relative to the tip owing to its beingslanted everywhere locally relative to the tip, but this without appearingshortened due to the slant. For special relativity which governs the gadgetenforces preservation of optical width inside the rocketship. Hence theslowdown visible from the tip, seen in Einstein’s mind in 1907, reflects thefact that all objects downstairs are invisibly to above enlarged in sizerelative to the tip by the gravitational redshift factor. This prediction – iftrue – entails that the speed of light downstairs is actually non-reduceddespite appearances. If theproposed computer game confirms this new prediction made whilst anticipating it,surprising consequences follow suit. One of them reads: “No Big Bang” anymore becausethe speed of light is rendered a global constant again by the computer game. Notethat mutually very distant points in the universe now can no longer recede fromeach other at super-luminal speeds as is being assumed at present. So the proposed “Einstein computer game”(ECG) is a surprisingly serious playful proposal in the realm of games. Itwould be especially great if it could get implemented right away by utilizingan already existing game portal like “gamelab” [2]. The race is on. We thankWolfgang Rindler, Susan J.

Very nice, dear Pedro,Otto From: Pedro C. Marijuan To: 'fis' Sent: Monday, February 27, 2017 5:39 PM Subject: Re: [Fis] WHY WE ARE HERE? ...AN UNPLEASANT ANSWER?! Dear Arturo and colleagues, Very interesting piece, indeed. It has strongly reminded me Teilhard de Chardin's views on the Omega Point of cosmic maximal complexity--although this was for him not a pessimistic outcome but a brilliant and up-beating prospect for all humankind. His eclectic views were bitterly rejected by most of the scientific and religious establishment of his time (no wonder that particularly by evolutionary biologists); but the arrival of Internet, as well as today's multi-level selection approaches, and the works of some quantum information scientists (Tipler, Deutsch) have vindicated his brave, Quixotic figure. Late Popes of the Catholic Church (Benedict XVI) have also vindicated his whole intellectual legacy. I have some minor problems with the present essay, but substituting some of the excessively teleological "purposive" terms about life (perhaps all of them?), and using instead a more austere description of organizational facts who knows! If life contains a unitary principle, I think it is more subtle, and cannot be expressed in unilateral physical terms such as maximum entropy production, symmetry restoration, free energy maximization, etc. Well, symmetry and information have more clout and hidden complexity, so I express not a rejection but some uneasiness regarding too direct "orthogenetic" views on biological and social evolution. My further suggestion --could it be a good idea that you change Monod's style "unpleasantness" (Oh, we the accidental discover that we are alone in the cosmos!) and point towards some of Teilhard's and Vernadsky's noosphere and the Omega Point? You would have several curious items to choose... More opinions?? Best wishes to all--Pedro El 24/02/2017 a las 16:24, tozziart...@libero.it escribió: Dear FISers, hi!

Re: [Fis] Fw: A Curious Story
Dear Joseph: Quote: "It is no longer valid to say that electrons are dimensionless points; experiments now establish a radius of the order of 10 to the -22 meters. If they are 'point-shaped' in the sense of being effectively spherically symmetrical, their putative fate as black holes seems irrelevant." What I meant is: They would be uncharged. Hence they cannot be point-shaped. So I see no dissensus between us. Thank you,Otto From: Joseph Brenner To: fis Sent: Thursday, January 12, 2017 11:03 AM Subject: [Fis] Fw: A Curious Story Dear All, I am sorry but I am still not satisfied with the evolution of this discussion to date. I am still looking forward to some explicit comment on my initial question of why mini black holes would not evaporate. I note that both Alex and Bruno asked the same question, before we have seen Gyorgy's comment. I can confirm from my own small experience as an organic chemist that entities can be created in the laboratory that not only do not exist in nature but could not be produced by 'Nature' on its own. The reactants, reaction vessels, temperatures and pressures to produce certain fluorochemicals and fluoropolymers could not be brought together in the same place and time without human intervention. In contrast, I see nothing in the discussion here of mini black holes that, first, suggests they could be the consequence of intentionally prepared states, with large energies 'brought together' in such a way that, second, their development would not follow known paths. I do not claim that I could follow the detailed mathematical physics of the demonstration of the existence of a "5% probability" that such states would not evaporate. But I and probably others of you much better could still follow a scientific discourse on the basis of some background and internal structure. For example, the following statement from one of Otto's notes seems to me to be a non sequitur: "If black holes are always uncharged, electrons cannot be point-shaped as is usually assumed because they would then be black holes and hence uncharged. They are bound to have a finite diameter large enough to prevent them from becoming black holes and hence be uncharged." It is no longer valid to say that electrons are dimensionless points; experiments now establish a radius of the order of 10 to the -22 meters. If they are 'point-shaped' in the sense of being effectively spherically symmetrical, their putative fate as black holes seems irrelevant. Would it still be possible to see some such new statements regarding both formation and evolution of mini black holes?

Re: [Fis] A Curious Story
Dear Bruno: You are the same fair mind as ever. Rare contacts never destroy friendships.Since you asked, I have a new result, it is due to Einstein up until 19011, but was given up by him at the time through an oversight (his mind had been "seared" by thinking too much bout the equivalence principle, he once said).So his earlier view was right: c-global.Accordingly, if light takes infinitely long down to, and back up from a black hole's surface as this is known, the distance also is infinite.But for some reason, everybody pretends that things can reach horizons in finite outer time.it is because everyone thinks mathematical transformations were physically allowed. The movie "Interstellar" showed that one can age more slowly still fairly far from a black hole (the father figure in the plot). But the fact that if you touch down virtually to the horizon itself to return soon, you necessarily arrive in an effectively infinitely far away future (the ultimate twins paradox), has escaped the specialists up to this day (ask Kip Thorne who is happy with this inconsistency). Since he is my age I cannot quarrel with him. Thanks for the gesture,take care, Otto From: Bruno Marchal To: Otto E. Rossler Cc: Dr. Plamen L. Simeonov ; Louis H Kauffman ; FIS Webinar ; Pedro C.

Everyone in physics is invited to invalidate my proof. I am not against taking unknown risks in science. I am only opposed to acting against known risks. But as convincing as this may be, it is still not my main point. My main and real point is: CERN refuses to update its official safety report LSAG for exactly as long. But there is an even more disturbing point. IF an organization openly refuses to contradict evidence of committing a crime (even the biggest of history), it is very very strange in my own eyes at least that no one in the world, from the media to the profession, from Europe to Africa to America to Asia, is even able to spot this fact as deserving to be alleviated or at least publicly discussed. Can anyone in this illustrious round offer an excuse or explanation for this historically unique phenomenon? Is it really unique? I'm afraid it might be a rather common attitude. As a different example, we know, since a very long time that the prohibition of drugs does not work at all: it augments the consumption of drugs, in the worst unqualified conditions, and benefits immensely, and *only* to the international crime and terrorism. Concerning hemp all the papers showing that there is a serious danger have been shown, since long, containing elementary errors in logic and statistics, or having delirious protocols, but prohibition continues, and the number of people suffering directly from it has grown and is quite huge. All the literature is available, but nothing changes. I could say much more on this, as I have studied the human-lies phenomenon and the drugs fields is a nest of human lies, but it is now a bit of topic (but not quite unrelated to information and communication, through the notion of (purposeful) misinformation,miscommunication and propaganda). I think that the prospect of blowing up the planet is just a non-concern for some lobbies, and that with fake religion we just accepted fake science, and that there is no more free markets nor free-thinking because all powers are concentrated into the hands of few bandits, dispersed in rotten clubs, rotten politicians working for petrol or pharma interests, etc. I am alas very well placed to know that a part of the academical world is itself hostage of those bandits. So I am not so much astonished that nobody will give attention to anything going against the special interest of a small community of very influent people, influent by force and not by reason. It is not so much astonishing, as we have not yet transformed, accomplished the Enlightened Period. All sciences have come back to Academy, except the most fundamental one (theology), with the result that it stays in the hand of the charlatans. We are just still in the Middle-Age, and the only difference is that it is a nuclear Middle-Age, which is indeed a bit frightening. We are just not rational (yet?). Having said this, I would also be happy to understand how some small black hole could not evaporate. The math still eludes me. Of course, I am not an expert in particle physics, and I cannot pretend to even been convinced, through pure personal insight , why black holes exist and should evaporate "in reality", as opposed to simplification where the math is feasible, but where m
Re: [Fis] A Curious Story
Thank you very much, dear Bob (if I may call you so) for your open letter which could as well have come from Dirac himself (whom my wife and I once met when we attended the same conference in Miami). I realize I have a little contribution to make with my suggested answer for you: c-global implies that black holes are necessarily uncharged. (Important innovations like c-global if its proof happens to be flawless, always have many implications.) If black holes are always uncharged, electrons cannot be point-shaped as is usually assumed because they would then be black holes and hence uncharged. They are bound to have a finite diameter large enough to prevent them from becoming black holes and hence be uncharged. Thus, the main qualitative element of string theory (bored-openness of space) suddenly has an empirical basis. The question that poses itself now is where to suspect the size of electrons to lie. There are quite a few orders-of-magnitude that potentially qualify. All we know for sure empirically is that ther diameter lies below ten to the minus 23 meters or so, right? If some form of string theory thus is proven to be implemented in nature (if you are ready to equate "unexplicable finite diameter" with this perhaps to grandiose name), one has to make probabilistic guesses as to where their size lies. For each order of magnitude, one can in the absence of any better hint assume the same probability. This leaves you about 6 scale steps. This size factor at the same time most likely increases the size of micro black holes beyond the classical radius. Here one now has to choose between the CERN energy and the Planck energy (which mass energy can be said to guarantee that a particle is a black hole because its corresponding photon has a wavelength smaller than the Schwarzschild radius of its mass energy). So we have only about six orders of agnitude to choose from. If you then give, in the absence of any better hint, each order of magnitude the same weight in between the proton mass and the Planck mass, and subtract the orders of magnitude covered empirically at CERN beyond the proton rest mass, you come up roughly with a probability of 5 percent that the CERN energy already reaches the black hole threshold. I hope this reply was not too confused and hand-waving. For some reason, string theorists have retreated from public visibility ever since the CERN controversy began. You may wonder about the above because this type of doing theoretical physics is different from the familiar one. Here one tries to exclude things, not prove things. But it is a beautiful new type of scientific endeavor, or so I feel. Can you forgive me the built-in "handwavingness" in the above? Take care,Otto P.S.

Rossler Cc: fis Sent: Wednesday, January 11, 2017 4:11 PM Subject: Re: [Fis] A Curious Story Dear Prof. Roessler: My training in quantum physics lies over a half-century in the past, so I cannot add or detract from the specifics of this issue without exposing my ignorance. I can only respond as an engineer with a devotion to the field of dimensional analysis. I note that the Planck constant and the gravitational constant deal with phenomena that are roughly some 43 orders of magnitude apart. Common engineering practice holds that dimensionless constants that differ by more than 5 orders of magnitude can be neglected in treating the problem a hand. Either the phenomenon in question is so fast that it is always in equilibrium with respect to more pertinent dynamics, or so slow that it takes on the guise of a boundary constraint. This is why I have always been skeptical of natural small black holes. It seems to me that in order to include the two constants into a dimensionless ratio of order one, one would have to combine them with characteristic distance and mass parameters of very large magnitudes -- such as those of galactic or cosmic scale. Such combination might be interposed artificially, of course, but I wouldn't expect the resultant bhs to behave like galactic systems. I know this sounds like ignorance or witchcraft to trained physicists, but engineers often have to evaluate and deal with systems for which the governing dynamics cannot be specified -- and dimensional analysis usually provides quite a reliable gauge.

Rossler, University of Tübingen, Germany Maybe I am the only one who finds it curious. Which fact would then make it even more curious for me. It goes like this: Someone says “I can save your house from a time bomb planted into the basement” and you respond by saying “I don’t care.” This curious story is taken from the Buddhist bible. It of course depends on who is offering to help. It could be a lunatic person claiming that he alone can save the planet from a time-bomb about to be planted into it. In that case, there would be no reason to worry. On the other hand, it could also be that you, the manager, are a bit high at the moment so that you don't fully appreciate the offer made to you. How serious is my offer herewith made to you today? I only say that for eight years' time already, there exists no counter-proof in the literature to my at first highly publicized proof of danger. I was able to demonstrate that the miniature black holes officially attempted to be produced at CERN do possess two radically new properties: - they cannot Hawking evaporate - they grow exponentially inside matter If these two findings hold water, the current attempt at producing ultra-slow miniature black holes on earth near the town of Geneva means that the slower-most specimen will get stuck inside earth and grow there exponentially to turn the planet into a 2-cm black hole after several of undetectable growth. Therefore the current attempt of CERN's to produce them near Geneva is a bit curious. What is so curious about CERN's attempt? It is the fact that no one finds it curious. I am reminded of an old joke: The professor informs the candidate about the outcome of the oral exam with the following words “You are bound to laugh but you have flunked the test.” I never understood the punchline. I likewise cannot understand why a never refuted proof of the biggest danger of history leaves everyone unconcerned. Why NOT check an unattended piece of luggage on the airport called Earth? To my mind, this is the most curious story ever -- for the very reason that everyone finds it boring. A successful counter-proof would thus alleviate but a single person’s fears – mine. You, my dear reader, are thus my last hope that you might be able to explain the punch line to me: “Why is it that it does not matter downstairs that the first floor is ablaze?” I am genuinely curious to learn why attempting planetocide is fun.

From: "tozziart...@libero.it" To: fis Sent: Tuesday, January 10, 2017 6:32 PM Subject: [Fis] Game over! A Curious Story "The operation of the LHC is safe, not only in the old sense of that word, but in the more general sense that our most qualified scientists have thoroughly considered and analyzed the risks involved in the operation of the LHC. [Any concerns] are merely hypothetical and speculative, and contradicted by much evidence and scientific analysis." Prof. Sheldon Glashow, Nobel Laureate in Physics, Boston University, Prof. Frank Wilczek, Nobel Laureate in Physics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Prof. Richard Wilson, Mallinckrodt Professor of Physics, Harvard University "The world will not come to an end when the LHC turns on. The LHC is absolutely safe. ... Collisions releasing greater energy occur millions of times a day in the earth's atmosphere and nothing terrible happens." Prof. Steven Hawking, Lucasian Professor of Mathematics, Cambridge University "Nature has already done this experiment. ... Cosmic rays have hit the moon with more energy and have not produced a black hole that has swallowed up the moon. The universe doesn't go around popping off huge black holes."
