It is OK if you do not see any reason to refer to dual model or string theory, even if these theories have been also able to deliver the same J=k M^2 you are so fond of. But it is more surprising that you also choose to ignore the empirical data, even if you said you know it. > > We have a new unified paradigm that applies to all scales of nature's > hierarchy: the Discrete Self-Similar Cosmological Paradigm.

He does a selection effect, by choosing experimental facts that he can fit in his framework. And he ignores or forgets that some of these facts are exactly the same in the mainstream theory. Take his calculation of the electron mass, for instance. In renormalisation theory, it is expected (and taught in textbooks) that the correction to the mass of the electron, when evaluated at Planck scale, must be of the same order that the electron mass itself. To this, Nottale simply put a concrete value to the "same order" coefficient; he sets it to 3/8, on the only grounds that it is a well known fraction in GUT theories. But he goes to tell that the formula is due to Self-Similar theory, and he does not tell that it was already known from standard quantum field theory. > Nothing to argue about anymore. Yes of course, you were not posting to argue, nor to get any feedback. Posting to illuminate, were you? I am never sure of the goal of threads as yours. In some case, I think that the poster wants to keep some status of knowledge in some inner circle of him, out of the internet. But most cases seem to be some internal urge, unjustified. Faith-propaganda, perhaps. Dunno.

Are you describing your own feelings right now? Jerry

Is this what you mean by "irrational expresions". Do you know how many times terms like 1/(sqrt 2) turn up in QM, for instance? ;) RLO www.amherst.edu/~rloldershaw
