New Theories / Re: Is there a discrepancy with the equivalence principle?
« on: 08/04/2018 13:49:51 »
In a physics climate that spends billions of dollars in research projects to investigate theories such as string theory, loop quantum gravity, holographic universe, asymptotic gravity, etc, that cannot make any falsifiable predictions to prove or disprove the theory, one would have thought that a person who can provide a falsifiable prediction for a 'really cheap' experiment* that will prove or disprove their theory, might well get published. Only time will tell, aye?
(*placing a precision clock, or clocks at LIGO would be cheap by comparison to usual experimental expenditure)
Anyway it is good to hear - should an experiment with clocks determine that a clock will not only tick faster in the higher potential near a GM, but will also tick faster when it is placed near a greater GM than it will if placed near a smaller GM - that you and the other moderators here will recognise that this is what I have been saying on the forum for years.
