Wikipedia does not have information on relativistic protons (that I can find). Can anyone give information on this? The article I am looking at more or less says they are the energy pushing the universe apart. I know what protons are but what are relativistic protons? thank you for any info !! tdeski@webtv.net

You can read it yourself at the top right hand column from the article in 1843 - http://www.bodley.ox.ac.uk/cgi-bin/ilej/image1.pl?item=page&seq=9&size=1&id=bm.1843.10.x.54.336.x.425 These poor men had no idea of an astrological framework at the core of Newton's agenda and if they did,they were too afraid to object.In the end,they dumped aether on Newton as 'absolute space' and created a new fiction called 'relativity',an exercise in solving the can of worms problem by creating a bigger can. As I said,it is enough to show genuine investigators the original works of Copernicus,Kepler,Galileo,Huygens (all of whom are astronomers) than go down the slippery slope of empirical doctrines.I am not obliged to explain Newton never mind the exotic 20th century extensions of Newtonian thinking but I do recognise that genuine dynamicists may wish to revisit orbital geometries without the chain of astrological geometry and Newton worship.

How anybody can continue believing in things which are not true is not my business,I present the correct principles of Copernicus allied with commentaries from Kepler and Galileo showing how orbital comparisons made from a moving Earth resolve retrogrades noptwithstanding modern time lapse footage which carries more weight than anything else.It is disconcerting to not have a single person spot the difference between the correct Copernican resolution for retrogrades and the false approach by Newton but I assure you he did not "go 'further than they did", he wrecked havoc with basic astronomical tenets and that is final. If I had to do this through an open forum then so be it,the fact remains that you no longer have your 'universal theory of gravitation' as it applies to astronomical structure and motion and that is big enough news .

I work productively on climatological and geological matters from the basis of the gorgeous reasoning known to Kepler and Galileo arising from the insights of Copernicus and comment on the Flamsteed/Newton standard as an uneccessary strain on the course of an astronomical discipline that stretches back to remote antiquity.With 21st century imaging it is easier than ever to see where conceptual modifications are required for climatological and geological purposes and if if the dominant Newtonian perspective still exist,I can see where they will eventually be bypassed in future. > John Savard- Hide quoted text - > > - Show quoted text -

Consequently, it is to be utterly rejected." > Optics 1704 Newton It is well known that Newton advocated the "corpuscular theory" of light, rather than the "wave theory" of light. Because of the work of Fresnel (who also invented the modern achromatic telescope objective, a thing Newton mistakenly said was impossible) the wave theory was absolutely dominant at the time Einstein came along. Thus, while Newton himself never advocated an "ether", absolute space *combined* with the then-dominant wave theory of light led to an ether. Descriptions of the contemporary state of scientific belief were not intended to lay the misconception of the ether directly to Newton; it would in any case be irrelevant, as the issues that lead to resolving whether or not there is an "ether" did not reach the point where they could be empirically investigated until the time of James Clerk Maxwell and then Michaelson and Morley. So at the time of Newton, no blame can be attached for the mistaken concept of the ether which other investigators then had in any case. > Newton might no > less well have called his absolute space ``Ether''; Albert 1920 > Not even close Albert,Newton had something else in mind with absolute/ > relative space and time but then again few appear to be listening. Albert Einstein's argument was valid - one could imagine an ether that does nothing to slow down the planets, and Einstein meant to dispense with absolute space, not merely with ether as a physical substance. Even if it is unfair to condemn Newton for what is only foolish in his much later disciples, when new knowledge with which to stand a bit higher upon Newton's shoulders has become available. > Again,the a ballistic agenda > applied to planetary motion is a valid way to approach planetary > motion but for goodness sake,do not turn astronomy on its head to do > it. I do not think we *are* turning astronomy on its head. We do not include the Sun's motion in our calculations when we do not need to do so, and we do not include and constantly subtract out the Earth's motion when heliocentric astronomy *exists* because of the obviousness of the absurdity of doing so. This appears to be your main objection to the current state of astronomical thinking, but it is hard for me to even imagine your point of view. John Savard

Yet the thing is not altogether desperate; for we have some arguments to guide us, partly from the apparent motions, which are the differences of the true motions; partly from the forces, which are the causes and effects of the true motion" http://members.tripod.com/~gravitee/definitions.htm#time The exotic early 20th century concepts managed to dump aether on Isaac as 'absolute space' anyway even though Isaac explicitly rejected such a notion ,in short,they lied to get the 'relativity' concept to fly - "The fictitious matter which is imagined as filling the whole of space is of no use for explaining the phenomena of Nature, since the motions of the planets and comets are better explained without it, by means of gravity; and it has never yet been explained how this matter accounts for gravity. The only thing which matter of this sort could do, would be to interfere with and slow down the motions of those large celestial bodies, and weaken the order of Nature; and in the microscopic pores of bodies, it would put a stop to the vibrations of their parts which their heat and all their active force consists in. Further, since matter of this sort is not only completely useless, but would actually interfere with the operations of Nature, and weaken them, there is no solid reason why we should believe in any such matter at all. Consequently, it is to be utterly rejected." Optics 1704 Newton The early 20th century nonsense is useful for highlighting what Isaac was up to with those relative/absolute definitions and then trace things back even further to Flamsteed where the really big error in principle occured.Of course some are going to find that passage from Newton disconcerting insofar as the whole scenario of 'relativity' was dispensing with an aether which Albert associates with Newton's 'absolute space' - " In order to be able to look upon the rotation of the system, at least formally, as something real, Newton objectivises space. Since he classes his absolute space together with real things, for him rotation relative to an absolute space is also something real. Newton might no less well have called his absolute space ``Ether''; Albert 1920 Not even close Albert,Newton had something else in mind with absolute/ relative space and time but then again few appear to be listening.It is now more satisfying to show how Copernicus,Kpler and Galileo thought than it is to untangle the twisted threads which Newton contrived to get his agenda to work.Again,the a ballistic agenda applied to planetary motion is a valid way to approach planetary motion but for goodness sake,do not turn astronomy on its head to do it.

Perhaps you would call that shameless empiricism? The purpose of science is to remain in contact with reality, and it succeeds in this purpose when it makes accurate predictions, even if we may, through empiricism, allow our theories to run ahead of having a philosophical basis, or we may simplify matters by looking at things through perspectives other than our own.

A relativistic proton is simply a proton that moves so quickly that the effects predicted by the Special Theory of Relativity are noticeable. This web page http://resources.yesican-science.ca/trek/radiation/final/assignment_key_general2.html shows two graphs of the energy of a proton in electron volts against its velocity as a fraction of the speed of light: According to the second of those graphs, a proton with an energy of 1 GeV travels at 80% of the speed of light.

How long do you think you can peddling that self-serving mathematical nonsense that nobody really cares about ?.I am sure the observational astrologers would be all too happy to leave you to your 'relativistic' devices because they are too lazy or too silly to do real astronomy . In an era which needs closer links between astronomy and terrestrial disciplines such as climatology and geology there is little time for indulgences like Newtonian and the exotic 20th century mathematical attempts to be astronomers.

The real scientific misconduct of Piltdown man does not belong to the perpetrator of the hoax but rather to the people who chose to continue believing in it because it suited preconceived notions.Other than setting up a neon sign telling his colleagues that it was a joke gone astray his 'cricket bat' should have been enough but they kept it going for almost 4 decades - http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/6054656.stm The second generation astronomical misconduct continues unabated as enormous amounts of effort and money are spent trying to prove notions of the universe based on zodiacal geometry created by the first generation guys such as Flamsteed and Newton - http://www.space.com/news/070905_nasa_beyondeinstein.html With most of humanity over the age of 30 seeing climate change dramatically,the astronomical effort should be to look back at the Earth from space and give a proper explanation for the seasons along with the background global climate as one productive avenue among many.

Well's narrative http://www.bartleby.com/1000/1.html All that relativistic cobblers of the last century goes right back to the original error created by Flamsteed and built on by Newton - "Absolute time, in astronomy, is distinguished from relative, by the equation or correlation of the vulgar time. For the natural days are truly unequal, though they are commonly considered as equal and used for a measure of time; astronomers correct this inequality for their more accurate deducing of the celestial motions." http://members.tripod.com/~gravitee/definitions.htm#time So,it all goes back to the Equation of Time,the 24 hour day and the natural noon cycles.Although Newton accurately expresses the Equation of Time in his idiosyncratic absolute/relative time way,his framework was the astrological framework of Flamsteed. In short,grow up,if people's concerns at the beginning of the last centuries were time travel machines ect,this era is concerned with climate and a deep need to understand what is going on.To understand global climate and the seasons you have to know the difference between the total length of the natural noon cycles and hemispherical variations in daylight/darkness or the common seasonal term 'lengthening and shortening ' of civil daylight.

High energy protons are included in the set of particles that make up cosmic rays. However I've never heard of a connection to dark energy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_rays Shawn
