The K2 spectrum is a picture on a CCD. You don't INTERPRET it using relativity. It is a K2 spectrum because it contains a specific set of absorption lines. This set of lines is determined by the temperature of the stellar atmosphere. (Degree of ionization etc.) http://outreach.atnf.csiro.au/education/senior/astrophysics/spectral_class.html The spectrum is exactly as it should be according to Kirchhoff's laws of radiation which are very well known from labs on the Earth. Claiming that a K2 spectrum can come from anything else than a star with temperature ca. 3800K is plain idiocy. And you claim that it is coming from a planet!

You are dreaming, Henri. The light curve of Algol have no distinct concavity between the eclipses at all.

On Tue, 11 Oct 2005, it was written: > Tell me, where in Maxwell's equations is there an inference that light moves at > the value of 'c', particularly wrt anything but the apparatus that measures the > constants? OK, write down the Maxwell equations in source-free free space. Substitute eE and mH for D and B (where e and m are the permittivity and permeability). Take either of the curl equations, take the curl of both sides. Since E and H are divergence-free, then you can convert the curl curl into a Laplacian. What equation do you have? Repeat for the time-harmonic Maxwell equations. What equation do you have? Notice that neither of the above equations has anything about the velocity of the source in it. Note that the variables in the above equations are E(r,t) and H(r,t). What is the coordinate system in which r is specified? What do the above equations tell you about the propagation speed of EM waves? As for the 2nd part of your question, if two apparatuses that are moving relative to each other measure the same e and m, then, unless the Maxwell equations are wrong, then EM waves must travel at 1/sqrt(em) in coordinate systems in which either apparatus is at rest. From whence, special relativity. Showing the Maxwell equations are wrong is a good first step towards showing that your theory of EM wave propagation is correct. Also a good first step towards falsifying special relativity, if you're into that kind of thing. > The universal constant 'c' just happens to have dimensions of speed. Physically > speaking, all speeds must be defined relative to something. Of course. Velocity is dr/dt, the position vector r requires a coordinate system. > Where is Maxwell's theory, is that reference? Was it the 'aether'? In Maxwell's original theory, it was the ether. In modern classical electrodynamics, any inertial coordinate system will do. > The statement, "the speed of light is c" is physically meaningless. Strictly speaking, yes. How about "the speed of light is c relative to <object X>" or "the speed of light is c in <coordinate system X>"? The short form, if used, should be taken to mean one of those. -- Timo Nieminen - Home page: http://www.physics.uq.edu.au/people/nieminen/ E-prints: http://eprint.uq.edu.au/view/person/Nieminen,_Timo_A..html Shrine to Spirits: http://www.users.bigpond.com/timo_nieminen/spirits.html |
