Halo nuclei - requiring to rethink what we know about nuclear forces

Jarek • Mar 13th 2025 • Physics
So why e.g.2 gammas -> half-electron + half-positronis not allowed?Or for different fractional charges?Standard answer is charge quantization as restriction of Gauss law, easy to get as topological, with many experimental realizations e.g. in liquid cry...

Without any charge mechanism, besidetwo gammas -> electron + positronThere would be allowed creation of half-electron + half-positron ... and any other fractional charge ... which are forbidden in nature, restring outcomes of Guass law, what requires so...

Your argument is totally wrong: The above is far field physics as you measure in the far field where you can't see the near field behavior...They have also unbelievable prediction accuracy in low energies, especially in atomic physics ...Formally, approxim...

But the "Salt" still mystifies meIt helps to differentiate their machine from some others that just use tap-water.I guess they will go on to say that the salt acts as a catalyst (just like all the other magic water-splitting catalysts that have been announ...

After messing with several dozen iterations for about 6 hours yesterday, I have returned to the HV wires as the source of thrust, essentially the same as the pink thing did before. The copper foil square is important however. Thrust strength is relative to...

Yes, and I have gave my objections you didn't respond to.Monopole-quadrupole interaction is 1/r^4, but depends on direction of this quadrupole - can be both attractive and repulsive ... what makes it aligned to maintain only attractive?Sufficiently strong...

Admission of Fraud in High Energy Physics

This "Contemporary physicists simply do not know what to do else." is not a quote from me ...The mainstream has focused on improving agreement with particle collisions - adding more terms to Standard Model Lagrangian when something disagrees, so I believe...

Sure, while mainstream focuses on agreement for particle collision data, I completely agree that its current understanding of nuclear physics is just terrible ...Like of halo nucleons this thread was supposed to be focused on: for milliseconds of single nu...

While QCD, Standard Model, string hadronization might seem too complicated, artificial, abstract ... they are results of a century of improving agreement with experiments - what is the goal of physics.So basically they are right, but e.g. this gigantic Lag...
