Your last post that I was quoting was pretty much you just insulting scientists, while demonstrating that you don't know what you are talking about by claiming paradoxes where none exist.
Just maybe you do not understand all the universe has to offer.
Having doubt about what you believe and allowing others to express an opposing and questioning opinion is key to scientific progress.

Its something a good mother or teacher might do well. It helps to not assume their intentions are for the worse. You might ask them if they know how that sounds. That it sounds like they are belittling all the previous hard work of those who came before who had to start from scratch, ect. Then ask, "Is that really your intention?" The problem with assuming the worst in an individual (guilty until proven innocent for example) is that it is a culture of looking down on others rather than as individuals who have dreams. It might also help to ask for clarification or to be specific about any claims of paradoxes or things that don't make sense. Some times individuals assume better communication about what they are thinking then they really convey. This is where the tactful skepticism or rebuttals come in that help clarification or help point out flaws. There is a possibility if they convey themselves clearly, they have something valuable to say. If not then by knowing clearly what they are thinking a clear correction is more easily given.
Hi people!!At another post I had trying explain how the conical cavity with flat ends could support two localized resonances at same time, and how this two trapped resonances could coupling each other by tunneling, and I call this system a asymmetrical dimer(after a "PT symmetrization").In fact I have found another denomination of this configuration in the literature, and it's called Instanton.In this case I think we have a Instanton formed by a TE mode resonance plus a TM mode resonance coupled by tunneling ( evanescent fields of each resonance decays from one end plate to the other, reaching other side with small but finite amplitude, and couple with correspondent mode under the superposition formed to fulfill the flat end plates boundary conditions, been mixed like a "scattering problem" dominated by the poles of dyadic green function of conical geometry writed with eigenfunctions in spherical coordinates)I'm searching if this specific instanton could break one of current conservations of the zilch tensor associated to helicity (frequentely associated to chirality too, and chirality can be also associated with electromagnetic duality in some cases).I think if dynamic of instanton can break the conservation electromagnetic of helicity/chirality "charge", then would occurs a coupling with gravity, or as I explained in other post, a gravitational wave will be generated by a oscillation of energy density center of mass of total electromagnetic inside the cavity, induced by a artificial PT-symmetrization (adjust of gain of the magnetron).To conclude, I think the thrust will be generated by the force imbalance caused during the tunneling of inward photons (TE side to TM side and vice-versa).

Thankyou to everyone who supports my freedom of opinion, but I must insist that the criticism is welcome. I have proposed that time has a complex conjugate necessary for description of physical interactions.This is a radical departure from existing analysis. Its rarity indicates the depth of conceptual re-arrangement required to consider it. No-one, with a career behind them which is invested in linear conceptions of time, is going to be able to take these arguments in without abandoning many of the filters which make them useful technicians or discerning teachers. This work is only intended for young people looking for a logical frame on which to build an understanding of the universe, or technicians so desperate to understand emdrive thrust that they will open their minds to something which they would otherwise rejected automatically.Its relevance is, however, indicated by the fine detail of application of special relativity. Each and every charge has a rate of passage through time which varies relative to the charges near to them. Time cannot then be understood as a local phenomenon, it must be something unique to the reality of each individual atom or charge and therein lies good reason to ask many questions about the relevance of a linear conception of progress through time to anything outside of solid objects.If these arguments interest you, and if moderators will forgive the repetition, please consider the argument in its early stages of development at http://vixra.org/abs/1711.0115 and its relevance to the emdrive at http://vixra.org/author/john_malcolm_newell. You may begin to question the reality of photons yourself.

Quote from: spupeng7 on 11/23/2017 12:36 amYou may begin to question the reality of photons yourself.-The photoelectric effect-Absorption/emission spectra-Radiation pressure-Single photon emitters-Single photon detectorsThese are things that have been experimentally measured (the last 2 are devices that have been used for countless quantum mechanics experiments.) Even just the photoelectric effect provides clear evidence that there is a quantized unit of electromagnetic radiation. The name given to this is a photon. Do you really think that you have found a theory that can explain all of these experiments without referencing a quantized unit of electromagnetic radiation?

You may begin to question the reality of photons yourself.t + ivt/c = 0Only has 2 solutions. 1. t = 02. v = icNeither of which is useful. Your idea about complex time doesn't help to engineer anything. It is something young people think about "before" they actually learn relativity. Most of us move on to using 4-dimensional space-time, none of which are imaginary because it has a solid interpretation.You say; "But time, from more than one perspective, cannot be a scalar because clocks have different rates in different depths of a gravitational field."This is pretty close to the definition of a scalar field. Time is most definitely a scalar. It is only 1 component of a 4-vector. The rest of your paper is more of the same.
What I am suggesting is that there is not anything in-between the emission and the absorption of the energy transfer causing these measurables.
Could you detail how you arrived at your second solution for my equation?

https://medium.com/the-physics-arxiv-blog/cosmologists-prove-negative-mass-can-exist-in-our-universe-250a980320a7this article says solutions for GR exist in desitter space that allow negative mass/energy without violating energy conditions in non flat space times. That's great. But the article written before positive LIGO results came in says a consequence of the resultant plasma would be screening of gravity waves. That appears to be a problem since gravity waves have subsequently detected and verified. the article says gravity waves below a certain frequency threshold would be screened out. I do not know enough to determine if the detected gravity waves ( at LIGO) were below the requisite threshold and thus the LIGO detections are a falsification of the papers theory or they are above the threshold and thus irrelevant to the paper. Alternatively assuming the paper is true then perhaps the predicted plasma is only present near the source of the plasma?BTW: I consider the content of this post weakly connected to the EM drive discussion because if the EM Drive effect is not due to a misunderstood mundane cause or measurement error; the source of the EM Drive propulsive effect is unknown and could be due to any number of exotic causes including this one. (Which, you must admit, would be extraordinarily cosmically cool.)

Yes you can scramble this relationship by mixing the components but, and correct me if I am wrong, you can do that with any complex number where the units allow. You will, however, destroy the information they contain when you do.The evidence for the existence of photons is a more involved question. First must be the double slit experiment which has been a source of controversy, and in my opinion misinterpretation, for two hundred years. The results of two slit experiments rely on the phase interaction consequent on variation of distance.Light may not be a wave or a particle but may be the leap of quanta of energy from one place to another, opportune when the phases across the available lines of sight syncopate. In complex time that phase variance is a consequence of, a variance of the passage of time for the absorbing material, in comparison with the lack of passage of time for the quantum transferred, which is why the above equation is required to explain it.The photon photon scattering observed in the LHC and the fields measured at large concentrations of photons are both situations in extrema which I will have to spend more time considering before I can answer your question. It does seem strange to me that such fields are measurable when large concentrations of photons at the focal point of a telescope do not distort the images it produces.Appreciate your questions, please keep them coming, and any references to the LHC results or photon field measurements you may have would also be appreciated.
We discuss a thermalized vacuum in terms of the relationship between imaginary time and temperature. The strategy of introducing imaginary time is well-known in cosmology and field theory, and has been proven effective in the removal of singularities...3 Complex time...The time symmetry of a click, which appears as a kind of two-faced Janus along the time line, has several equivalents in quantum physics. ... The appearance of the factor in Eq. 15 implies that Ψ has resumed its course in laboratory time. If the + sign applies, we are looking at the creation of a particle (positive mass); if the -sign applies,this indicates the creation of an anti-particle (negative mass). ...4 Physical meaning of complex time...The crucial observation is that the timeless vacuum state is described by two temporal parameters but no spatial parameter.
