Both systems are quantum/classical systems. Most people do not recognize the quantum nature of the Solar System, but it is there for anyone to see, just as in the case of the atom. RLO ==================== Regarding the macroscopic, you don't begin to realize anything like the "quantum nature" of it until you begin to realize planes of the macroscopic, and dual and multiple universes (such as the "observable universe" and the 'unobservable universe' slightly to titanically forward of it in space and time (to perceive and identify just one dual nature of the macroscopic that just barely begins to edge into it)).

The lack of standard spectroscopic notation makes this paper very hard to follow, since there are often two electron transfers undergone simultaneously. Without use of the proper term symbols, it's impossible to tell immediately which transitions are allowed. It is helpful to use chemistry terminology and notation when making a chemical argument. > > Read it with an open mind.

There are two things which I don't follow: 1) Why are some variable stars "similar" to singly excited helium and others to doubly excited carbon? 2) How your examples, even if they were more compelling, constitute "self-similarity". This somewhat connects to point (1). Are there any stars which are primarily singly excited Rydberg state helium? doubly excited Rydberg state carbon? > > Let's take it ONE issue at a time. > > We may both learn something. Unfortunately, I don't have easy access to your source for the Rydberg helium data. Nevertheless, I suspect that there is no clear correlation between the intensities of the electronic transitions, and the "intensity" of some period of the star. > > RLOwww.amherst.edu/~rloldershaw

Since there are helium atoms undergoing single-level transitions in nature, AND since there are doubly excited carbon atoms undergoing 2- photon transitions in nature, then we should observe Stellar Scale systems doing the same thing. Right? I think the above answer should your question #2. To put it even more baldly: Everything we observe on the Atomic Scale will be exactly repeated on the Stellar Scale, and the Galactic Scale, and the Subquantum Scale, and for every cosmological Scale of the infinite self-similar hierarchy of conformally invariant Scales constituting nature. It is an idea that goes back to Democritus, Kant, Spinoza, Hermann Weyl, G. de Vaucouleurs, etc., etc., ... Finally we may have enough observational evidence to make this worlds-within-worlds paradigm a serious contender. It certainly makes more sense than the hackneyed postmodern pseudoscience that theoretical physicists keep trying to force-feed us. RLO www.amherst.edu/~rloldershaw

Unfortunately for your model, everything from the solar system on up tends to be constructed in a plane. No orbitals on the cosmic scale, so much for your model Unfortunately for your model, there is no analog to fine/hyperfine splitting of energy states. Or Lamb shift. Rather much looks to me like you are cherry picking data to support a predetermined conclusion. > > It is an idea that goes back to Democritus, Kant, Spinoza, Hermann > Weyl, G. de Vaucouleurs, etc., etc., ...

Keep whining on USENET about how science has took a wrong turn. I'm sure interested observers can *definitely* tell the difference between you and say, Androcles. |
