no, because that makes sense, it is all relative to the field.  Your light idea relative to every single place some light reflects from for the light that reflected there but not other light that reflected from somewhere else.

I'm afraid I don't follow you at all. The magnitude and direction of the acceleration light experiences as a result of the EA is dependent only on the direction of its velocity vector.

Yes, which is totaly unlike a moving charge in a magnetic field.

The magnitude and direction of the force on a moving charge in a magnetic field depends upon the magnitude and direction of the component of its velocity perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field. I fail to see how the concept is greatly different in principle.

That's because you don't understand the implication of the force you just made up for light.

That force is very simple, it is perpendicular to hte direction of movement, and perpendicular to the field.  Very simple,very sensible.

Your idea is that the force is perpenicular to the direction of movement and in any plane perpendicular to the surface of the planet, in whatever direction is required to turn away from the planet, and then stopping at the point when the direction of travel is perpendicular to the surface of the planet.  Not simple, not sensible.

Oh, it is perfectly simple. It is simple in that the force tries to act in the direction of the dark energy field, but cannot always do so due to the fact that it cannot change the magnitude of the velocity of light, only its direction. So what happens is that it acts so as to minimise the angle between itself and the dark energy field. Allow me to illustrate:



Notice how the magnitude of the force decreases when it acts in a direction that is not parallel to the dark energy field, and reduces to zero when it cannot act at all? Perfectly simple, and perfectly sensible.

oh, then explain this:

Have we come to the conclusion that the FE explanation to the outcome of this experiment is that light is being bent?

That is their assertion, but it is wrong.

Even a simple set-up, something that will fit on a table, would demonstrate the presence of "bendy" light.



As you rotated the experiment in the vertical axis, the interference pattern would be changed by the "bend" of the light waves.  Since this is not observed, there is no bend in light waves.

I am trying to figure out what f(t) is. It is a function of t as the notation suggests, but I do not know what the function is. I have managed to relate it to its derivative function, however:



Where c and r are constants.

Basically it is one of two parametric equations that describe the parabolic arc in which light is bent with t as the parameter representing time. x = f(t) and y = g(t). Once I know f(t) I can work out g(t), and from there everything will fall into place. Note that it is not the most conventional parametric form of a parabola. I am inclined to suspect that f(t) may be something like an inverse hyperbolic sine curve.

Additional information:

f(t) is an odd function.
f(0) = 0
f'(0) = c
f''(0) = 0

How did you arive at that differential equation? Or, what are your initial assumptions for how light must behave in EAT?

I think I have an answer if we assume that the vertical component of light's velocity increases linearly with time (constant acceleration) and that it's velocity must always be c.

I think I have an answer if we assume that the vertical component of light's velocity increases linearly with time (constant acceleration) and that it's velocity must always be c.

First, I calculated that y = x2 / 2r if it is to approximate the effect of a round Earth at short distances (r being the radius of the RE). This means that dy / dx = x / r and therefore dy / dt = (x / r) * (dx / dt). Substituting x = f(t) and y = g(t), you get g'(t) = f(t) * f'(t) / r.

Next, if the speed is to remain constant, then by Pythagoras' theorem f'(t)2 + g'(t)2 = c2. Squaring the above equation, c2 - f'(t)2 = f(t)2 * f'(t)2 / r2. Rearranging this gives:



What was the answer you got?

Hmm, I did it differently. First, I used x(t) and y(t) instead of f(t) and g(t), just because it is more descriptive.

We know (if I understand EAT correctly):
y'(t)2 + x'(t)2 = c2                                       (speed of light is constant)
y''(t) = a                                                    (light accelerates upwards constantly with acceleration a)
y(0) = 0,  x(0) = 0,  y'(0) = 0                        (initial conditions)

y''(t) = a  =>  y'(t) = at  =>  y(t) = at2/2  This is assuming the EA is constant and directed upwards.

So, by pythagoras: (at)2 + x'(t)2 = c2
Re-arrange for x'(t) to get a difficult integral, type into the online integrator to get:

x(t) = (c2/2a) arctan (at/{c2-(at)2}0.5) + (t/2)(c2-(at)2)0.5

which is ugly, but there you go.

I think your initial assumption that light follows a parabola is incorrect.

This is an incorrect postulate. There cannot be both constant vertical acceleration and constant speed. The acceleration must be perpendicular to the velocity, such that:

x''(t)2 + y''(t)2 = a2

Though a is not constant; it decreases as |dy/dx| increases.

I was going by your original electromagnetic accelerator post. Maybe I got the wrong end of the stick, maybe the thery has changed a bit.

So what rules govern the path light takes? What direction is a (other than perpendicular to v)? What is its magnitude?

PS: I'm going out now. Hopefully I'll have a look in a few hours.

That is what I am trying to work out. Also, yes I did have a different idea in the beginning. I only later came to realise that the only way to keep the speed constant was to have the acceleration be perpendicular to the velocity.

It would save you time working out differential equations if you accepted that the experimental data means that the effect you are trying to model doesn't exist.

Of course, that would probably defeat the purpose of you arguing in the first place.

Perhaps when RE'ers unanimously accept that gravity does not exist, I will consider accepting that the EA does not exist.

Where do comets come from?  Don't they orbit towards and away from the sun?   That can't happen since everything is going the same speed in the same direction.  Also where do meteors come from?  They to should be going in the same direction,  gravity shouldn't be pulling these things in since it doesn't exist?
