Dear Timo: A constant in an equation is something like pi, 3.1416...
Since both the surface area of stars, and the temperatures of stars
are variables, those only become ‘constant’ once the values are
plugged in.

What you aren’t considering (relative to your 1,000 fold gravity
difference) is that those stars, with the masses that you state,
aren’t rotating about the midpoint between their centers. And you
aren’t including the surface area of each star in the equation.
Brighter stars will have a larger surface area per unit mass. Also,
though the TOTAL gravity of a star is equal to the product of the
luminosity and the surface area, the fraction of the gravity that’s
holding two objects together is the “illuminated area”, or the
percentage of the total star’s light that actually hits the other
star. It is the addition of photons to the facing sides of stars that
allows the ether pressure on the opposing sides to hold the two stars
together. Please re read my original post, “There is no PULL of
gravity; only the PUSH of flowing ether!”

I’m pleased that you are investigating my New Science theory. You
appear to be one of the brightest people to reply to me on
sci.physics. But like I explained: I am a generalist. When the
concepts fit—without having to throw-out logic or disregard the good
science data that‘s available (minus, of course, the often errant
science theories of others)—then, a theory (like mine) starts having
validity. Unfortunately, I don’t have the time, nor the interest in
math, to seek to ‘prove’ that I’m right. I invalidated the M-M
experiment by showing that such didn’t have a control light course.
The latter invalidation required only an hour of analysis in my public
library, and not a single bit of math. I disproved Einstein’s SR
theory by showing that such violated the Law of the Conservation of
Energy, and other points of logic. Again, no math was required. If
your motive is to disprove my most-logical-concept-for-gravity-that’s-
ever-been-postulated, then, you are forcing me into an adversarial
relationship with you—which I don’t have time for. Your ‘process’
should be to simply accept my theory as logical, then, to use your
obvious talents to verify that theory from the available data. But if
you come running to me at each of your learning steps in the analyses,
you aren’t doing you, me nor science a favor. I’ll respect what you
are doing, if you will respect what I have already done.

The easiest way for you to confirm my theory would be to heat the
larger ball in the Cavendish experiment as hot as possible. The
torsion slowing should occur quicker with the hot ball than with the
same ball cold. No other measurements are required. Do THAT
experiment, and find that the heated ball has more gravity, and you
can sit back and let the astronomers and scientists all over the world
quantify the temperature-variant gravity! I, the generalist, provided
the spark of inspiration. If others get to determine more of the
specifics, they can share in the glory. — NoEinstein —

The size of the orbit - which we can directly measure since this
binary system is very close to us - and the orbital period - which we
can also directly measure - together give us the combined mass of the
two stars. Where the centre of the orbital motion lies along a line
joining them tells us where the centre of mass is, and how that
combined mass is divided between them. The figures of m_A = 2M, m_B =
1M come from this. So, you now know where the centre of motion is,
relative to the 2 stars. If, according to your theory, this
calculation should be done differently, do it.

No, "luminosity" is the total emitted power. It already includes the
surface area. "Luminosity" = "surface brightness" times surface area.
As I said in the previous post. Sirius A radiates about 1000 times as
much power as Sirius B. This already includes the effect of surface
area. Yes, Sirius A has a much larger surface area - that's why it's
brighter. Go and look for yourself - Sirius A is the brightest star in
the night sky, and Sirius B isn't visible to the naked eye. It's a big
difference in luminosity.

Look up the numbers for yourself, at your fingertips via www.

You're the one who said that the gravity is proportional to the photon
emission. You didn't give any other usable quantitative model of the
strength of gravity. If the gravitational force should be found some
other way, perhaps you should have said so, and said how. All I did
was test the quantitative model that you gave me. If it's the wrong
model, why did you give it? If it's the wrong model, give the right
one.

One star emits 1000 times as many photons as the other, yet only
appears to have twice the gravity. This is compatible with
conventional physics, including conventional theories of gravitation.
If it isn't compatible with your theory, then perhaps reality has cast
its vote, the only vote which counts in science.

As I keep asking, and as you keep refusing to say: How large is the
effect supposed to be? In other words, how sensitive does the
experiment need to be to detect it? There isn't much point in trying
it without knowing this. Since you claim that gravity is proportional
to "photon emission", for masses above some threshold mass (which you
haven't explained or given even an approximate value for yet), and
radiation by hot bodies is well known and understood, why can't you
say how large the effect should be? A simple calculation, surely, and
should be trivial for you. Why not just answer?

For example, double the absolute temperature of the balls; easy to do,
just heat to about 330C. 16 times the radiated power, at double the
peak frequency, as compared with a room temperature ball. How much
larger should the gravitational force be?
