They are, even after applying Occam's razor.

Why do you think one needs to study physics for several years until
one can work as a physicist, if it's all so easy?

No. I *demonstrated* with a *calculation* that *if* Au 80+ ions
existed, they would have been seen in those experiments.

Oh, millions of collisions in which no Au 80+ ever showed up
are not enough?

What on earth does that have to do with "response time of the

Do you *really* want to tell me that the instruments would not be able
to see a distance of 730 ***KILOMETERS***?

No. But one does not need to be an experimental expert to see that
a distance of 730 ***KILOMETERS*** simply can't be missed by
the instruments.

So, please tell me how the instruments could miss a distance of 730
***KILOMETERS***.

No quibble about that.

Why? The answer is well-known. The higher the element, the more
computer power and time is needed in order to get all the details.
And it simply was not necessary to get all the details, so people
did not bother to do it so far.

Well, no one posed this challenge to far. Why is it a fault of QM

Absolute utter nonsense.

Hey, the Nobel prize would be in for someone who showed QM to be
false! So why on earth should anyone be merciful toward the theory???

Pot. Kettle. Black.

Someone who takes every experimental result which remotely
resembles his model as evidence for it, without bothering to explain
the deviations of 10% and more, and without ever looking at how the
experiments are done, but as soon an experiment contradicts his model,
he simply asserts that the experiment or its interpretation has to
be in error, is not sensitive enough etc, should not accuse others
of a "double standard".

Err, QM was tested in a lot of *other* areas. And still is. In all these
areas, it gave good results. How long do you plan to ignore this?

Wrong. According to your book, QM is wrong for *all* elements.

For the umtenth time: that follows from a plethora of evidence,
for starters, from the conservation of charge!!!!!

That is not an assumption of QM - that follows from basic electrostatics
already!!!!!

I did not say anywhere that I consider QM as "100 percent air tight".
And now answer the question: How many tests does a physicsal theory have
to pass, in your opinion, until it finally can be seen as reliable?

Why do you keep harping on the heavy elements and ignore all the
thousands of *other* tests done on QM?

I notice that you did not answer the question.

Right. But how do you know that *if* one would apply QM to study
all the details of the heavy elements, that would not work? How do you
explain that the results obtained so far were in accord with the
observations?

Well, and observation of orbits is not direct observations of the
causes of these orbits, so my analogy is perfect.

I ask again: It is in your view also an unsupported extrapolation to
claim that the same law of gravity we observe on the earth holds also in
other solar systems?

And that did *still* *not* answer my question. What do you *mean* by
saying that radiation is harmonic?

Well, that is wrong. The outer power does *not* need to have
a similar motion. It is enough if the relevant Fourier component
of the outer power is large enough to overcome the damping.

It is a *fact* that there can be radiation without resonance.
Try bremstrahlung for starters, or look at the analogy of throwing
a stone into water.

Unsupported, nonsensical assertion.

Water waves are not atoms which vibrate. Water waves consist
of atoms which go up and down! That is a *translational* motion,
not a vibrational one!

Wrong. Nonsense. Trivially shown to be false, if one knows
*anything* about wave mechanics!

Err, one pinch is not a harmonic outer power. Hence we have here
yet another example where an outer power which is *not* harmonic
causes a harmonic motion. Thanks for shooting yourself into the foot.

Resonance of what to what?

For understanding wave mechanics and resonance, one *needs* mathematics.

Have you looked at the thread in the last days where the gravitational
force inside a hollow cylinder was discussed? There is was nicely shown
that the intuitive result is wrong, and one needs math in order to
arrive at the right result.

An infinite amount?

Yes. Please present evidence that electrons can vibrate, and
that harmonics exist there.

So electrons are stretched?

QM can explain quite a lot for heavy ones, too.

Give even *one* example of a *scientist* who *ever* believed that.

And not only believed that - but examined all the available evidence,
tested this hypotheses, and *still* kept believing in that. Otherwise
this is a false analogy!

If this person keeps claiming that standard physics is wrong,
that hundreds of thousands of scientists are cheating or suckers
or parrot, that he alone has found the truth, then I expect that
person to back up his assertions. Can't you understand that?

If you can't back up your assertions, shut up, plain and simple.

Wrong. These pages contain nothing about stability. There, only
the possibilities for forming alloys are discussed.

So I ask for the *fourth* time:
where does your book address the questions I posed above?

> did you got the explanation of the 'stability of a 'table'?

Yes, you wrote that somewhere. But that makes no sense in the
microcosm. Weren't you the one who kept telling me that the
microcosm is different from the macrocosm?

Stable with respect to what?

"strong" in what sense?

You invent rules nilly-willy everytime something goes wrong. No wonder

About 1.5 years ago, we had a discussion where I presented evidence

That there are fixed locations is simply an unsupported assertion

And deviations of 10% and more ignored, and contrary evidence ignored,
and lots of new rules made up everytime there is a problem etc.

Yes, it can.

Yes, it can.

Additionally, please consider that the evidence for QM is at least
1,000 times as large as the evidence for your model...
