David,
I can't help you with the math description of virtual particles
giving rise to Casimir effect as you put it, but, as to your final
question Is their ground state determined by the zero point energy? I am
convinced that YES, the ground state is determined by zero point energy

Hi
The referenced paper in Note 9
Lunar Laser Ranging Test of the Invariance of c. D Gezari. NASA. Dec
'09.[2] http://arxiv.org/abs/0912.3934v2
is a very interesting paper. Thanks again, Jones.
It provides a
No, I cannot see the flaw, but I do find the conclusions very provocative -
and, given the extreme minority conclusion - there is a great incentive for
everyone who disagrees to assert a flaw:

invariance; light propagates in an

Indeed.

Can someone tell me how to describe the virtual particles giving rise to the
Casimir effect? I assume it can be described in simple terms like densities
of electron positron pairs and other particles.
Would one way to determine them be to calculate what electron positron
densities gives rise to
I read an interesting post and comments on Casimir effect that has me
considering how SR and spatial confinement might explain fractional quantum
states in a Casimir cavity. The post was from 2007 and I don’t know if my
comment will ever be added but I brought it here because I think it may

Fran,
On the other hand, to wax a bit impolite spatially - the closest giant
elliptical galaxy to Earth and usually the brightest radio sources in
the sky is called M87. In 1999 astronomers were interested in a jet of
particles being emitted,
Problem is Stephen, you did not read the part where it explains that the
narrow-angle model does not apply when the jet is more than 19° from our
line-of-sight.
In the case of M87, the best evidence (from Hubble, and it was not available
before that) suggests that the jet is in fact about 43° to

Stephen,
What makes you think they're spinning it, rather than merely looking
for what seems the most likely explanation given what is currently known?
That is a bit idealistic, since there is a direct physical observation, and
the spinners are trying to deny the validity of observation by

That is the nature of spin, isn't it? What goes around, comes around.
Spinning implies torsion, eh?

Vortex is definitely NOT a no-spin zone.
