Most of those "guys" have so deeply painted themselves
into a corner with time-travel pseudo-science that
they no longer recognise violations, second
nature to the rest of the scientific community.

<< Application of Noether's theorem allows physicists to
gain powerful insights into any general theory in physics,
by just analyzing the various transformations that would
make the form of the laws involved invariant. For example:

* the invariance of physical systems with respect
to spatial translation (in other words, that the laws
of physics do not vary with locations in space) gives
the law of conservation of linear momentum;
* invariance with respect to rotation gives the law
of conservation of angular momentum;
* invariance with respect to time translation gives
the well-known law of conservation of energy >>

in which many terms lack precise or unambiguous
definitions, and some have no definition at all.>>

Your theory will be better once you lose the 'poselectron'.

"[The ether] may not be thought of as consisting of particles which
allow themselves to be separately tracked through time." - Albert
Einstein

When an electron and positron 'annihilate' each other they return to
their base state of aether.

Positronium (what you call poselectrons) has already been discovered
decades ago.

There are lots of neutral particles coming out of positron/electron
reactions. It will help if you could predict some of the properties of
poselectrons, such as spin, mass, baryon number, lepton number,
lifetime, decay products. This is what is normally done when a new
particle is predicted.

<< The Nobel Committee avoids committing itself to
the particle concept. Light-quanta or with modern
terminology, photons, were explicitly mentioned in
the reports on which the prize decision rested only
in connection with emission and absorption processes.
The Committee says that the most important
application of Einstein's photoelectric law
and also its most convincing confirmation has
come from the use Bohr made of it in his theory
of atoms, which explains a vast amount of
spectroscopic data. >>

The 1 MeV space has been thoroughly searched at numerous facilities.
You can look at http://pdg.lbl.gov for the particle spectroscopy in
that region. What properties other than mass would you expect this
particle to have, so that it can be searched for among the catalog of
particles in that energy range?
