Non GHG CO2 behaves as Non GHG gas N2 and H2 in Nuclear Cooling

Will Happer should include Raman measurements

Image
I think Professor  Happer has it absolutely wrong , sadly.  This curve was made redundant by quantum mechanics. In the 1920s, more spectral modes of molecules were discovered/ identified through Raman scattering experiments by Rasetti and others. The two CO2 modes at 1288 and 1338 cm-1 shown here are both Raman only, as are the H2O and the N2O near to them. Raman Lidars can measure the temperature of all of the gases from these modes. The last CO2 mode on the right at 2349cm-1 is right by N2's single 2338cm-1 mode. From this mode, the atmosphere's temperature is measured by Lidars, and the N2-CO2 laser radiates it by infrared photons (or electron discharge). I have written to Happer, and he sadly dismisses the/my Raman measurements.   Raman spectrometers measure in reference to the blackbody radiation ground surface temperature Max value (thin black line).  Blue modes are Raman active modes , and  green lines are both IR (thermo transductive) and Raman active modes .

The Dunn Raman Spectroscopy Climate Debate Fallacy

Image
The Dunn Fallacy A persistent fallacy has developed from a group of thinkers as part of a rebuttal to my work, primarily from physicist Michael Dunn, whom I have communicated with extensively on this issue and to whom I give name credit on his claim.  This is a strawman fallacy.  Dunn and others respond to my work (words to the effect): "Blair, there is no Raman effect in the atmosphere that contributes to the greenhouse effect". This is something I have never claimed and never thought of claiming because it is just not true. No one has ever suggested this.  Dunn  and others  have brought this claim into existence in a red herring fallacy or a special pleading fallacy. Dunn and others are maintaining, saving the status quo, that only the IR-active spectra emit and absorb IR heat radiation and the Raman active modes do not.  I am proposing radiating pure N2 with infrared heat and measuring the temperature change (or not) with the Raman CARS spectrometer. I have spoken with exp

DESI Challenging My Fractal Cosmology Theory

Image
When I saw this in my feeds on Thursday, it stopped me in my tracks (stop the train!!) and has since made me think—wow! This is epic. A detailed picture looking halfway across the observable universe. It does not look suitable for (my) fractal theory, but it is still in the early days, and they are pulling in the (old) quasars out there. We'll see how it looks when they are finished. The survey before this one took us out to around 100 (on the x-axis) and was the scale on which we fractalists based our work. I/we have been predicting larger and larger galaxy structures the further out we look. They don't seem to be there. mm... or? https://newscenter.lbl.gov/2022/01/13/dark-energy-spectroscopic-instrument-desi-creates-largest-3d-map-of-the-cosmos/
