I was getting a lift from a C-60 molecule and in QM, since the C-60 molecule knows to enter one or multiple slits depending upon there being or not being detectors placed at the exits to the slits in the future, I already knew what PD was going to post before it happened.

While I applaud your willingness to try to correct your ignorance by looking things up in Wikipedia, it would help if you knew a little more about what you're talking about. The statement about superposition of electromagnetic fields from charges and currents is talking about the superposition of the *same* kind of field due to multiple sources (charges and currents). I mentioned to you that the *same* region of space will have *different* kinds of fields -- say, electric and gravitational -- present. These can be static fields, not waves. Please account for the presence of TWO different kinds of fields in the same location due to THE displacement of THE aether from ITS rest position. PD

See the part about "WAVES of electric AND magnetic fields, with each field driving the other."

Yes, there CAN be electromagnetic waves. But there can be fields that are NOT waves. Static fields are generated all the time. This is why I mentioned the statically charged plastic comb sitting on a refrigerator magnet on your kitchen counter. No waves present. But fields -- distinct fields -- there nonetheless. Not to mention the gravitational field present in the same spot. How can all those fields be accounted for by THE displacement of THE aether from ITS rest position? PD |
