Fractal Foundational Quantum Theory Published

 Hello everyone.  I have been away from my blog for the last year waiting for the decision on my submission to the International Journal of Quantum Foundations.  I can now announce my work has been published in the journals speculations supplement.  I am very pleased, it took a lot of work and thought.  I have had no reply to date.  We'll see.  You can read it at the following.    The Fractal Corresponds with Light and Foundational Quantum Problems Abstract:  After nearly one hundred years after its origins, foundational quantum mechanics remains one of the greatest unexplained mysteries in physicists today. Within this time, chaos theory and its geometry— the fractal—has developed.  In this paper, the propagation behaviour of a simple iterating fractal—the Koch Snowflake—was described, analysed and discussed. From an arbitrary observation point within the fractal set the fractal propagates forward by oscillation, and retrospectively— viewing behind—it grows exponentially from a po

DESI Challenging My Fractal Cosmology Theory

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

Emergent Fractal Attractor Corresponds with Foundational Quantum Problems

I have for over ten years now been writing a theory of quantum mechanics through the fractal. I have found the fractal demonstrates all aspects of the quantum. My problem has been how to get this down on paper and publish it. Over a 6 month period, late 2020 and early 2021 I worked on the following paper with my supervisor, but in the end, I throw it down not at all happy with what I had achieved. I need to approach it in a different way; rather than being an experiment, describe the fractal from a deductive point of view. This I intend to do when things have settled and I have had a break from it all, but this is what I have achieved so far.  Keep in touch, I will let you know when I get started again.  Abstract The field of foundational quantum mechanics originated nearly one hundred years ago yet remains one of the greatest mysteries to physicists today. The experiment in this study tests whether the geometry of fractals, according to a simple isolated iterating fractal (the Koch Sn

Giant Arc evidence of a fractal universe

Image
I'm looking at my feeds and I see astronomers have discovered (or finally recognised, we've known about them for years) there is a 'large' structure at the outer edges of the universe. 3 billion years wide, 'Giant Arc'. https://www.sciencetimes.com/.../could-this-3-billion... This blows apart the standard model of cosmology as for it galaxy distribution is smooth on all scales. But a few have challenged this view and said the universe is fractal - fractal-cosmology. I came into this from the outside, indirectly. The universe is recognised 'by science' as being fractal on small scales (out to around 1 billion years) but on large it is smooth and assumed not fractal. No. No, it is not smooth, and nor should it be. I have taken the fractal-cosmology further by modelling a fractal (doing the maths directly from a fractal, an experiment) and big structures like the Giant Arc are exactly what we would expect to see - like big branches on a tree near the trunk.

The Peace Gun

To understand why he doesn't turn the key, imagine the pistol has another barrel that points back at the shooter and also fires when he shoots. If every firearm had that double-barreled feature they - just like nukes - would (all else being equal) never be used. From my thinking.

Hubble Tension, the Emissivity of the Universe?

Image
https://astronomy.com/magazine/2019/06/tension-at-the-heart-of-cosmology Could the Hubble tension between the CMB (Hubble value of 67) and the supernova Hubble ladder (value of 73) be the emissivity of the universe given the detectors of the CMB are thermo-electric? Thermoelectric devices all produce bell-shaped curves called blackbody curves and they all have the emissivity correction problem. If we assume the ladder method is correct and there is a systematic (emissivity) error in the CMB map, what temperature would the universe have to be to make the two have a Hubble constant equal to the ladder method? That difference, I think, would be the emissivity of the universe. And that would be an acceptable solution as all things have an emissivity reading, why not the universe?

A Fractal Theory of Quantum Foundations

Update October 2021:  http://www.fractalnomics.com/2021/10/fractal-corresponds-with-quantum-foundation-problems.html Finally, after 12 years of working, last night I posted my quantum fractal paper; in it, I address the big questions of physics with a simple, modern, and well-known geometry, the fractal. I feel a little nervous actually, it appears no one has ever done this. If I can get some (financial/grant) support on it I'll take it to publication, rewriting and adapting it to suit — which is all too much for me here and now on my own. Besides, I want to work with the atmosphere stuff, where I use real quantum mechanics to reveal how the infrared atmosphere really works; way more exciting. Actually, there is still work to be done with the fractal: 'a theory of knowledge' from it.  Update May 2021: for the last 6 months I have been rewriting my paper, with help, and am hoping to publish my findings.  http://www.fractalnomics.com/2021/10/fractal-corresponds-with-quant
