Do you have a problem with your long term memory??? I've snswered
that question at least four times now! I'm tired of repeating myself
and things haven't changed...! It is V-E-R-Y well known that GR does
not, and can not provide an explanation for the mechanism the actually
causes gravity. Examples,

I know that so-called natural units 'scale' c to be defined as 1

Speed is still speed and length is still length, time still time the

You have STILL not answered my question.
You have just generated more open questions about general relativity,
as though if a theory has open questions, it is not a physical
explanation.

I am asking you a very specific question.
In order for a theory -- any theory -- to be classed as a physical
explanation, there would be certain elements in that theory that would
warrant it being called a physical explanation. What are those
elements? And specifically which of those elements are missing in the
description that I gave above?

If you cannot LIST the fundamental elements that ANY theory must have
for you to consider it a physical explanation, then I guess it's
obvious that YOU don't know what you mean by the term "physical
explanation".

Peter? Who's Peter? And I think we agree on what "fundamental" means.
What are the fundamental elements of a physical theory, Paul?

That's not right, Paul. Every discipline has jargon where the words
mean something other than common usage as listed in the dictionary.
That's why the terms are so carefully defined in textbooks, sometimes
repeatedly with refinements at successive iterations. This is in true
in music and law as well as physics. It's just a reality. Not a basis
for complaint.

So you don't buy "natural units" either, because you just say so.

Since you cannot answer the question, Paul, it would be reasonable for

In AD, a photon consists of a wave and a particle. Both physically
exist at all times.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave

"A wave is a disturbance that propagates through space and time,
usually with transference of energy. A mechanical wave is a wave that
propagates or travels through a medium due to the restoring forces it
produces upon deformation."

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/particle

"2. Physics.
a. one of the extremely small constituents of matter, as an atom or
nucleus.
b. an elementary particle, quark, or gluon.
c. a body in which the internal motion is negligible."

I would add:

d. A self contained entity which travels a single path.

Wave-particle duality: Waves propagate the available paths and a
particle travels a single path.

For a photon in a double slit experiment this means the photon wave is
physically propagating the available paths and the photon 'particle'
travels a single path. 'Particle' is in quotes because it is not known
if a photon, while moving and not detected, exists as a self-contained
entity.

My preferred description of a photon is as a directed/pointed wave
which collapses and is detected as a quantum of mather.

If you were capable of applying this simple definition of a wave, as
propagating the available paths, and a particle, as traveling a single
path, then it would be easy for you to understand what occurs
physically in nature in a 'delayed choice quantum eraser' experiment.

If you were able to understand waves physically propagate available
paths and particles travel single paths, the results of Experiment #1
below would be obvious.

For example, in the image on the right here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed_choice_quantum_eraser#The_experiment
There are waves propagating both the red and blue paths towards D0.
One of the downgraded photon 'particles' is traveling either the red
or blue path towards D0. The lens causes the waves to create
interference which alters the direction the particle travels. One set
of downgraded photons is creating one of the interference patterns at
D0 and the other set of downgraded photons is creating the other.

It's all very easy to understand once you realize 'delayed-choice',
'quantum eraser', and the future determining the past is simply
misinterpreting what is occurring in nature.

In the image on the right here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed_choice_quantum_eraser#The_experiment
When the downgraded photon pair are created, in order for there to be
conservation of momentum, the original photons momentum is maintained.
This means the downgraded photon pair have opposite angular momentums.
We will describe one of the photons as being the 'up' photon and the
other photon as being the 'down' photon. One of the downgraded photons
travels either the red or blue path towards D0 and the other photon
travels either the red or blue path towards the prism.

There are physical waves in the aether propagating both the red and
blue paths. The aether waves propagating towards D0 interact with the
lens and create interference prior to reaching D0. The aether waves
create interference which alters the direction the photon travels
prior to reaching D0. There are actually two interference patterns
being created at D0. One associated with the 'up' photons when they
arrive at D0 and the other interference pattern associated with the
'down' photons when they arrive at D0.

Both 'up' and 'down' photons are reflected by BSa and arrive at D3.
Since there is a single path towards D3 there is nothing for the wave
in the aether to interfere with and there is no interference pattern
and since it is not determined if it is an 'up' or 'down' photon being
detected at D3 there is no way to distinguish between the photons
arriving at D0 which interference pattern each photon belongs to. The
same for photons reflected by BSb and arrive at D4.

Photons which pass through BSa and are reflected by BSc and arrive at
D1 are either 'up' or 'down' photons but not both. If 'up' photons
arrive at D1 then 'down' photons arrive at D2. The opposite occurs for
photons which pass through BSb. Photons which pass through BSa and
pass through BSb and arrive at D1 are all either 'up' or 'down'
photons. If all 'up' photons arrive at D1 then all 'down' photons
arrive at D2. Since the physical waves in the aether traveling both
the red and blue paths are combined prior to D1 and D2 the aether
waves create interference which alters the direction the photon
travels. Since all 'up' photons arrive at one of the detectors and all
'down' photons arrive at the other an interference pattern is created
which reflects back to the interference both sets of photons are
creating at D0.

Figures 3 and 4 here:
http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/quant-ph/pdf/9903/9903047v1.pdf
Show the interference pattern of the 'up' and 'down' photons. If you
were to combine the two images and add the peaks together and add the
valleys together you would have the interference pattern of the
original photon. This is evidence the downgraded photon pair maintain
the original photons momentum and have opposite angular momentums.

Nothing is erased. There is no delayed choice. Physical waves in the
aether are traveling both the red and blue paths and when the paths
are combined the waves create interference which alters the direction
the photon 'particle' travels.

Experiments which are evidence of Aether Displacement:

Experiment #1:

Instead of having a single beam splitter BSc have two beam splitters
BSca and BScb. Have the photons reflected by mirror Ma interact with
BSca and have the photons reflected by mirror Mb interact with BScb.
Do not combine the red and blue paths. Have additional detectors D1a,
D2a, D1b, and D2b. Have the photons reflected by and propagate through
BSca be detected at D1a and D2a. Have the photons reflected by and
propagate through BScb be detected at D1b and D2b. If you compare the
photons detected at D1a and D1b with the photons detected at D0, the
corresponding photons detected at D0 will form an interference
pattern. If you compare the photons detected at D2a and D2b with the
photons detected at D0, the corresponding photons detected at D0 will
form an interference pattern. What is occurring is all 'up' photons
are being detected at one pair of detectors, for example D1a and D1b,
and all 'down' photons are being detected at the other pair of
detectors, for example D2a and D2b. Interference patterns do not even
need to be created in order to 'go back' and determine the
interference patterns created at D0.

Experiment #2:

Alter the experiment. When the downgraded photon pair are created,
have each photon interact with its own double slit apparatus. Have
detectors at one of the exits for each double slit apparatus. When a
photon is detected at one of the exits, in AD, the photon's aether
wave still exists and is propagating along the path exiting the other
slit. When a photon is not detected at one of the exits, the photon
'particle' along with its associated aether wave exits the other slit.
Combine the path the aether wave the detected photon is propagating
along with the path of the other photon and its associated aether
wave. An interference pattern will still be created. This shows the
aether wave of a detected photon still exists and is able to create
interference with the aether wave of another photon, altering the
direction the photon 'particle' travels.

Your inability to physically explain the following is evidence you
feign hypothesis:

- The future determining the past
- Virtual particles which exist out of nothing
- Conservation of momentum does not apply to a downgraded photon pair
- A C-60 molecule can enter, travel through, and exit multiple slits
simultaneously without requiring energy, releasing energy, or having
a change in momentum.
- Matter causes physical space to be 'unflat' but not move

The following are the most correct physical explanations to date:

- A C-60 molecule enters and exits a single slit while the associate
aether displacement wave enters and exits available slits
- The aether displaced by the matter which are the plates extends
past the other plate. The pressure exerted by the aether displaced
by the plates forces the plates together
- Conservation of momentum does apply to a downgraded photon pair.
When a photon is detected its wave collapses which determines its
spin. In order for the original photons momentum to be conserved,
the downgraded photon pair have opposite angular momentums.
- A C-60 molecule enters and exits a single slit while the associate
aether displacement wave enters and exits available slits
- Physical space is displaced by matter. Aether is displaced by
matter.
