...out of curiosity, assuming that the photons from antimatter, even if ordinary, would be polarized differently - what about mirror matter photons? You mention "symmetry is conserved" but I wonder if that goes to every detail? You probably know about "Jones calculus"? (no relation, and new to me ;-) Before stumbling on it, I had no idea that photons were so complex... but the implications are many - there may be a statistical ways in the future (or now) to determine, from a study of photon emission, if a star (more likely a whole galaxy) is composed of antimatter. ... maybe mirror matter has distinctive photons? or have you answered that before? Every time you mention mirror matter, I get this vague and uneasy sense of deja vu... Makes the head spin. Jones Speaking of circularly polarized apples falling up ... ... and other 'Dusty' memories Like a circle in a spiral Like a wheel within a wheel Never ending or beginning On an ever-spinning reel Like a snowball down a mountain Or a carnival balloon Like a carousel thats turning Running rings around the moon Like a clock whose hands are sweeping Past the minutes of its face And the world is like an apple Whirling silently in space Like the circles that you find In the windmills of your mind ....
