Classical Physics vs Modern Physics SeminarUpdated December, 2007 An effort is underway to have a "Classical Physics vs Modern Physics Seminar" in Minneapolis, Minnesota. To be held in 2008 or 2009. A significant challenge to Quantum Theory and Relativity has been made by Dr. Charles Lucas and David Bergman of Common Sense Science (www.commonsensescience.org). The Challenge Modern Physics (quantum theory & relativity) is bad science Modern Physics is inconsistent with the Christian worldview Modern Physics can be replaced by a return to Classical Physics Other participants to include: * Proponents of the Standard Model * Christians who accept the Standard Model and consider it consistent with Christianity * Advocates of Eastern Religions (i.e. Buddhism) who claim Modern Physics is consistent with their religious foundations. Following are abstracts of lectures given by Dr. Charles Lucas at the AAAS Conference in Tulsa, Ok. April 2006. The Minneapolis conference is intended to be a little less technical and focus more on the religious/philosophical implications. Derivation of the Classical Universal Electrodynamic Force Charles W. Lucas, Jr. Mechanicsville, MD ABSTRACT A new universal electromagnetic force law for real finite-size elastic charged particles is derived by solving simultaneously the fundamental empirical laws of classical electrodynamics, i.e. Gauss's laws, Ampere's generalized law, Faraday's law, and Lenz's law assuming Galilean invariance. This derived version of the electromagnetic force law incorporates the effects of the self-fields of real finite-size elastic particles as observed in particle scattering experiments. It can account for gravity, inertia, and relativistic effects including radiation. The non-radial terms of the force law explain the experimentally observed curling of plasma currents, the tilting of the orbits of the planets with respect to the equatorial plane of the sun, and certain inertial gyroscope motions. The derived force law satisfies Newton's third law, conservation of energy and momentum, conservation of charge, and Mach's Principle. The mathematical properties of equations for the fundamental empirical laws and also Hooper's experiments showing that the fields of a moving charge move with the charge require that the electrodynamic force be a contact force based on field extensions of the charge instead of action-at-a-distance. The Lorentz force is derived from Galilean invariance. The most general form of the force law, derived using all the higher order terms of the Galilean transformation, is assumed to be exact for all phenomena on all size scales. Arguments are given that this force law is superior to all previous force laws, i.e. relativistic quantum electrodynamic, gravitational, inertial, strong interaction and weak interaction force laws.The Electrodynamic Origin of the Force of Gravity (F = Gm1m2/r2) ABSTRACT The force of gravity is shown to be a statistical residual force due to the fourth order terms in v/c of the derived universal classical electrodynamic force between vibrating neutral dipoles consisting of atomic electrons vibrating with respect to protons in the nucleus of neutral atoms. The derived gravitational force has the customary radial term plus a new non-radial term. From the radial term the gravitational mass is defined in terms of electrodynamic parameters. The non-radial term causes the orbits of the planets about the sun to spiral about a circular orbit giving the appearance of an elliptical orbit tilted with respect to the equatorial plane of the sun. The vibrational mechanism causing the gravitational force slowly decays over time giving rise to the expansion of the planets (including the earth) and moons in our solar system, the cosmic background radiation, Hubble's red shifts versus distance due to gravitational red shifting, Tifft's quantized red shifts as a type of Bode's law, and Tifft's measured decay of the magnitude of red shifts over time. Arguments will be given that this derived law of gravity is superior to Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation (F=Gm1m1/r2) and Einstein's General Relativity Theory. The Electrodynamic Origin of the Force of Inertia (F = mia) ABSTRACT The force of inertial is shown to be a statistical residual force due to the acceleration terms in the derived universal electrodynamic force between vibrating neutral dipoles consisting of atomic electrons vibrating with respect to protons in the nucleus of neutral atoms. The inertial mass is derived and shown to be equal to the gravitational mass. The vibrational mechanism for both gravitational and inertial mass causes the magnitude of both masses to decay over time. The inertial force has a non-radial term which causes certain observed non-Newtonian inertial gyroscopic motions which will be demonstrated. Arguments will be given that this derived law of inertia is superior to Newton's Law of Inertia (F=ma). A Classical Electrodynamic String Theory of Elementary Particles ABSTRACT A new classical electrodynamic string model of elementary particles is presented based on the derived universal electrodynamic force law. This classical approach is also based on plasma physics experiments with plasmons which indicate that continuous charge fibers can exist without radiating energy and can be combined to build larger complex stable structures. The model consists of intertwining closed loops of classical electromagnetic charge fibers possessing chiral symmetry. A physical demonstration of the intertwining charge fibers will be available for all to see. The resulting elementary particle model with 3x3x3 symmetry can explain the internal structure, decays, interactions, and excited states of all the observed elementary particles, i.e. leptons, mesons, and hadrons. The classical model conserves energy, linear and angular momentum, and charge fibers at all times without exception! Arguments are given to show the superiority of this model to the current Standard Model of elementary particles. Classical Electrodynamic Theory of the Atom ABSTRACT A classical electrodynamic geometrical packing model for the structure of the atom is developed based on the derived universal electrodynamic force law. This model incorporates the physical structures of electrons from the classical electrodynamic string model of elementary particles. From the physical characteristics of real electrons this work derives, using combinatorial geometry, the number and orientation of electrons that will pack into the various physical shells about the nucleus in agreement with the observed structure of the Periodic Table of the Elements. The constraints used in the combinatorial geometry derivation are based upon simple ring dipole magnet experiments and spherical symmetry. This model of the atom, based on finite-size ring electrons, gives rise to a new mechanism for the binding of atoms to form molecules. Instead of valence point electrons performing orbits about two nuclei to bind them together, stationary ring electrons bind atoms together electrically and magnetically. Each electron acts as a small ring magnet. From a magnetic basis the model explains the reason why the periodic table has only seven periods. The new classical model predicts new states for the stationary electron in the extreme ultraviolet not possible for orbiting point electrons in quantum type theories. NASA rocket space probes found 64 lines in the emission spectrum of hydrogen in the extreme ultraviolet in perfect agreement with the predictions of this new ring model of the hydrogen atom. Arguments are given showing the superiority of the classical model of the atom over relativistic quantum models. A Classical Electrodynamic Theory of the Nucleus ABSTRACT A classical electrodynamic geometrical packing model for the structure of the nucleus is developed based on the derived universal electrodynamic force law. This model incorporates the physical structures of electrons, protons, and neutrons from the classical electrodynamic string model of elementary particles. From the physical characteristics of these real particles this work derives, using combinatorial geometry, the number and orientation of electrons and protons that will pack into the various physical shells of the nucleus in agreement with the observed structure of the Table of the Nuclides. In this model neutrons inside the nucleus polarize into electrons and protons. The model accurately predicts the nuclear "magic numbers" indicative of nuclear shell structure, the spin of all nuclides, and explains the physical origin of the liquid drop features of nuclides. Arguments are given showing the superiority of this classical model of the nucleus over relativistic quantum and liquid drop models. The Electrodynamic Origin of Life in Organic Molecules Such As DNA and Proteins ABSTRACT The evidence for the electrodynamic origin of life in organic molecules such as DNA and proteins is presented. It is based on the same type of approach used by Schroedinger that led to the discovery of DNA. Experimentally the Orgone Laboratory Life-Energy field meter measures the absorption of longitudinal radiation on any object put near its short range detector. Measurements of the absorption of longitudinal radiation by plants, fruits and vegetables, and animals including man in various experiments seem to correlate well with the expected life energy of those bodies. Dr. Antoine Priore of France has demonstrated on thousands of animals the healing power of longitudinal waves from his giant plasma tube. From previous work on the universal electrodynamic force, it is claimed that longitudinal waves are absorbed on large chiral organic molecules causing them to vibrate longitudinally like a long spring. This longitudinal vibration gives an organic molecule the pulse of life. According to electrodynamics all vibrational motion must decay by radiating. The consumption of food by organisms provides a fresh supply of longitudinally vibrating molecules which share their longitudinal vibrational energy in order to maintain the longitudinal vibrations of the DNA, proteins, and other organic molecules of the organism. The Electrodynamic Origin of Thermodynamics ABSTRACT The laws of thermodynamics are defined from the derived universal law of electrodynamics and its consequences. The zeroth law of thermodynamics is explained and temperature defined. The first law is just a statement of conservation of energy. The second law of thermodynamics follows from the necessity in electrodynamics for all particles undergoing accelerations to radiate continuously. The third law defining the condition of absolute zero temperature is explained in terms of the radiations from the vibrations of electrons and other elementary particles. A very precise statement of the fourth law is given with application as to how life can develop according to thermodynamics. With regard to this a physical explanation of the fluctuation theorem for non-equilibrium systems is given from electrodynamics. Finally the Planck formula for black body radiation is derived from classical electrodynamics for real finite-size electrons. Arguments are given showing the superiority of this classical model of black body radiation over the quantum model.
