Some years ago . . .

I feel that now is the time for me to begin sharing this information with others so as to catalyze the work.
I have the sense that Rodin's math is a re-discovery of "anciently known, but time forgotten" knowledge. Sort of like the knowledge that must have been present at the time the pyramids were built.

SEATED in a near-empty restaurant in a backstreet of Tampere in Finland, Evgeny Podkletnov certainly doesn't look crazy even when he holds up the superconducting disc he says he used to reduce the effects of gravity. The Russian émigré's claim caused such a storm he was thrown out of his job at Tampere University of Technology five years ago. He now works as a researcher in superconducting materials at the nearby University of Tampere, but he's not about to give up his quest to be taken seriously.
Podkletnov claims others have repeated the experiments with great success, and for the moment at least, influential scientists around the world are giving him the benefit of the doubt. Researchers at Toronto University in Canada, at CNRS France's national research agency and even an employee of Boeing in the US all want to repeat his experiment, Podkletnov says. And perhaps most significantly of all, NASA ...
This is the best article I've ever read on Podkletnov, it may be the best article ever written on the subject though if anyone has found a better article, please post it as I'd like to read it:

Here is Part 1 of an interview with Podletnov:
This is one of those claims where I'm not sure what to believe. Would he really use a co-author's name without his permission, or was the co-author originally involved, and denied it after the waste product struck the rotating blades as Charles Platt suggests?
The director of the institute promptly denied any involvement and declared that Podkletnov was working entirely on his own initiative. Then the coauthor of Podkletnov's paper claimed that his name had been used without his knowledge - which was highly implausible, but he stuck to his story, presumably because the institute told him to. In the end Podkletnov had to withdraw the paper from publication in the journal, he was abandoned by his friends, and his credibility was impaired.
Glad to see that Park is at least a little open-minded which is appropriate since we don't yet have a way to bridge the theories of relativity and quantum mechanics, though that fact can't be used as evidence to support any specific claim including Podkletnov's.
Bob Park is a physics professor at the University of Maryland. When he's pressed to say something about Podkletnov's work, he comments: "Well, we know that we can create shields for other fields, such as electromagnetic fields; so in that sense I suppose that a gravity shield does not violate any physical laws. Still, most scientists would be reluctant to conclude anything publicly from this." Ironically, Park has made a name for himself by debunking "fringe" science in a weekly column for the American Physical Society's Web page. If scientists are reluctant to "conclude anything publicly," it's partly because they know they may be stigmatized by critics such as Park.
I seem to recall that NASA was involved in a replication effort of Podkletnov's experiment at one point, though the details on that are a bit murky. Despite the lack of clarity on the details, every account I've read seems to agree that NASA didn't replicate the effect.
Anti-Gravity
Has anyone ever created an anti-gravity device?
A few years ago, Russian physicist Yevgeny Podkletnov published results claiming he had built a device consisting of a superconducting disc and electromagnets, which reduces the force of gravity on an object by about 2%. However, despite the fact that this research was published in 1992, no other scientists have been able to replicate Dr. Podkletnov's claimed result. Because of this, most scientists in the field of gravitational research consider Dr. Podkletnov's result to be highly suspect.
I also looked at material on the Barbury Gravity Shielding tests and found the claims/results they present difficult to believe. I could find no report of their experimental result in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, and by their webpage's own admission the effect they claim has not been duplicated by any other group. I am not convinced there is any validity to these tests and emphasize that anyone can make claims and publish web pages. But without vetting work through peer scientific review and having other scientists perform confirming experiments, their scientific validity is in serious doubt.
At this point in time, it is fair to say that "anti-gravity" devices such as this are purely science fiction.

Eugene Podkletnov on Gravity Shielding
· October 28th, 2011
· Posted in Audio
Dr. Eugene Podkletnov discusses gravity shielding effects in rotating superconductors and recent experiments with a gravity impulse generator. Podkletnov achieved notoriety when publishing on gravity shielding in 1996, when pipe smoke rising in a column above a rotating superconductor became the precipitating event that led him into detailed investigation of the gravity shielding effect. He describes the experimental elements of his research and hypothesizes on a number of models that may explain his findings.
Podkletnov first published on the topic of gravity shielding effects in superconductors back in 1992, and achieved notoriety in the media when he submitted an article on the effect to the “Journal of Physics D”. The story was leaked to the press and initially published in the British “Sunday Telegraph” newspaper, and was subsequently was picked up by other publications around the world. Podkletnov has indicated that despite the publicity this provided for his research, it also led to negative feedback from peers in the scientific community, and ultimately pushed him towards private financing for his research.
Podkletnov described the discovery of this gravity shielding effect as a smoke from a colleague’s pipe rose in a column above the rotating superconducting disk, which prompted him to perform measurements that eventually led to him believe that a gravity shielding effect was occurring. Seeking to demonstrate a more pronounced gravity shielding effect, over time he constructed larger superconducting disks, and has additionally proposed stacking arrays of rotating disks as a means for multiplying the gravity shielding effect based on existing experimental designs.
Over the last few years, Podkletnov has continued his research, and published a joint paper with Dr. Giovanni Modanese describing a “Gravity Impulse Generator” capable of producing a non-diverging beam of what appeared to be gravitational force emanating from a superconductor. The impulse generator departed from Podkletnov’s earlier experiments in that it used a mounted, stationary superconducting emitter bombarded by a high-voltage discharge in a high-intensity magnetic field, rather than simply rotating a superconducting disk as in his previous gravity shielding experiments.
Podkletnov’s research has been closely followed by NASA, and a replication of the initial superconductive gravity shielding test was attempted in 2001 by NASA’s Ron Koczor and Tony Robertson of NASA Glenn research center, who performed tests on a superconductive disk designed by Podkletnov and built by SCI Engineered Materials. However, the replication achieved only 200 rpm of the required 5,000 rpm and failed achieve a measurable result.

Conclusion
Present uncertainties in experiments with rotating superconductors and superfluids leave a very high upper boundary of possibly involved gravitomagnetic fields. This shall stimulate the investigation of the gravitomagnetic properties of such rotating superconductors and superfluids, for example by measuring the torque on a spinning gyroscope produced by the gravitomagnetic field possibly generated by rotating superconductors and superfluids. According to the knowledge of the authors, this experiment has not been done. According to our analysis, it could be a worthwhile task however.

Discussion
In this discussion we give empirical evidence for the ability of both the
Sachs and O(3) theories to describe data which cannot be described
by the Maxwell-Heaviside theory of at space-time. The Sachs theory
is able to describe parity violating and spin-spin interactions from first
principles [5] on a classical level; can explain several problems of neutrino
physics; the Pauli exclusion principle can be derived from it. The
quaternion form of the theory, which is the basis of this paper, was first
developed in 1982 [6] and predicts small but non-zero masses for the
neutrino and photon; it describes the Planck spectrum of black body
radiation classically; describes the Lamb shifts in H; proposes grounds
for charge quantization; predicts the lifetime of the muon state; describes
the electron-muon mass splitting; predicts physical longitudinal
and scalar photons and fields. . . .
In summary, by interlocking the Sachs and O(3) theories, it becomes
apparent that the advantages of O(3) over U(1) are symptomatic
of the fact that the electromagnetic field vanishes in flat space-time
(special relativity), if the irreducible representations of the Einstein
group are used as described by Sachs [1].
In this discussion we give empirical evidence for the ability of both the
Sachs and O(3) theories to describe data which cannot be described
by the Maxwell-Heaviside theory of at space-time.
The central idea is that every equation of classical dynamics can be expressed in terms of the connection of geometry, a radically new approach to the philosophy of relativity. . . .

There's an article based on Bearden's research written by a person with degrees in nuclear physics and engineering science entitled "Maxwell's Equations." It states that Maxwell's original paper "A Dynamical Theory of Electromagnetic Field," Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London, 155, 459-512 (1865) consisted of 20 equations with 20 unknowns.
Maxwell's Equations
New -- March 20, 2004
James Clerk Maxwell is routinely considered one of the greatest physicists to have ever lived – viewed by most modern day physicists as being on the same rarified level as Sir Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein. . . .
Fundamental to Maxwell's fame is a set of equations involving electromagnetism, which have come to be known collectively as “Maxwell's Equations”. [2] These equations are discussed in numerous websites, but Wikipedia [1] has one of the best presentations and explanations of the traditional four equations. (4/1/07) Of particular note is the fact that the Wikipedia article includes eight of the original Maxwell's Euqations. The fact there may have been twenty is, alas, not discussed. (See below.) Alternatively, the Hyperphysics site is also excellent, and notes in its introduction the following:
“Maxwell's equations represent one of the most elegant and concise ways to state the fundamentals of electricity and magnetism. From them one can develop most of the working relationships in the field.
“Because of their concise statement, they embody a high level of mathematical sophistication and are therefore not generally introduced in an introductory treatment of the subject, except perhaps as summary relationships.” [3]
In truth the four equations traditionally included in the teaching of physics are more aptly named the “Maxwell-Heaviside Equations” inasmuch as Oliver Heaviside reformulated Maxwell's original equations from a quaternion format into a simple vector format. . . . after a comparatively limited debate among some 30 scientists – a notation advocated by Heaviside, Gibbs, et al – after Maxwell was already dead.
“After publication of the first edition of his Treatise, Maxwell of course also caught strong pressure from his own publisher to get rid of the quaternions (which few persons understood). Maxwell thus rewrote and simplified about 80% of his own 1873 Treatise before he died of stomach cancer in 1879. The second edition of that treatise was later published with that 80% revision done by Maxwell himself under strong pressure, and with a guest editor. But the 1865 Maxwell paper shows the real Maxwell theory, with 20 equations in 20 unknowns (they are explicitly listed in the paper). The equations taught today in universities as ‘Maxwell's equations' are actually Heaviside's equations, with a further truncation via the symmetrical regauging performed by Lorentz.” [5]
Bearden [6] goes on to point out that:
“A higher group symmetry algebra such as quaternions will contain and allow many more operations than a lower algebra such as tensors, which itself contains more than an even lower algebra such as vectors.” [6]
In effect, the reduction of Maxwell's original theory from 20 equations to 4 – purely in order to make the mathematics a bit easier for the poor physicists – severely limits the capabilities of the original theory. This shows up dramatically in the Second Law of Thermodynamics, where the original equations were effectively “regauged” in order to force the theory to obey the law of conservation of energy. In all respects a return to the quaternion format in Maxwell's original equations seems likely to yield astounding results. Quaternions cannot simply be ignored any longer.
[4/1/05] The other equations of the 20 equation set of quaternion equations may have boggled many a mind when they were first introduced, but as others have shown in modern times, the remaining equations may be very useful in engineering the exctraction of energy from the Quantum vacuum. . . .
In all respects a return to the quaternion format in Maxwell's original equations seems likely to yield astounding results.

Double-slit experiment
Even when the single electron appears to be interfering with itself and goes through both slits at once in some sense, we don't get 2 half electrons, one from each slit to hit the screen, it's always one single electron hitting the screen in exactly one spot, showing it's not divisible even when it's somehow passing through both slits at once.
when a laboratory apparatus was developed that could reliably fire single electrons at the screen, the emergence of an interference pattern suggested that each electron was interfering with itself, and therefore in some sense the electron had to be going through both slits.

I am not talking about the wave-function of an atom, but that of a single particle (electron or photon) in the double slit experiment. The interesting thing is that this is not a localized wave, it can spread over a large area. The particle can be at any place in this large area.

3. Everything we observe or measure in your 'particle' atomic realm is collapsed/decoherent. It is coherent and in superposition before such interaction takes place. (Heisenberg Uncertainty, Observer effect)
Originally posted by -PLB-
Disagree. In 2 you just said we should see the wave function as a mathematical construct to describe the observed wave like behavior of particles. There isn't an actual wave that we know of. We have never measured it. The wave is pure theoretical. The actual reason why particles behave like a wave is unknown as far as I know.
Originally posted by beebs
4. Given #3, it would seem that when we 'observe' a particle, we are instead observing a changed/collapsed/decoherent state of nature.
5. My interpretation, is that rather than there being a real duality, there is only the appearance of a duality - and that the cohere natural functional state before observation is of a wave nature.
6. The wave is 'transformed' into appearing like a 'particle', because it is collapsed/changed and absorbed into the environment. Kind of like touching a vibrating string.
Originally posted by -PLB-
How does a non-local collapsing wave result in a point like measurement? Shouldn't it show up as a wave? How is decided in what position in space this measurement occurs? Shouldn't it be the first place a reaction occurs, so the closest point on the screen, if it were an actual wave and not a probability distribution?
Originally posted by beebs
7. I am not sure what you are intending with your last two questions. The particle appears only in our interpretation of certain mathematical variables. It isn't like we are actually 'seeing' them. Although, perhaps we are closer now than ever before:
Originally posted by -PLB-
For a moment, lets not call it "detecting a particle" but "detecting a wave collapsing". I think the questions make sense then.
Originally posted by beebs
Again, by 'something' what do you mean? I would say space. I am a little unclear on your subsequent statements.
Originally posted by -PLB-
Whatever you want. Space, fine by me.
Originally posted by beebs
I am describing the functional, cohere state of nature as a vibrating wave structure of space. The point like object is like an extremely dense wave center in cymatics, and perhaps bends space time to a certain extent in order to 'ripple' out giving us the structure we see. There can only be speculation on this point, which would have to be further investigated. I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be, or appear like, what we would call a Einstein-Rosen bridge or wormhole. Whether or not we understand enough about what a wormhole is or may be, is another discussion.
Originally posted by -PLB-
What I see as the problem here, it that your wave like behavior is not the same as the wave like behavior that is meant in wave particle duality. What I understand from it, in wave particle duality, the wave like behavior is on a macroscopic scale, not a wave inside the particle. The wave can actually spread over a large area. So it can increase in size and is not localized, like the wave you describe is.
Originally posted by -PLB-
I will only answer to this part for now as I think it is the most relevant. This is where I think the idea that an actual real wave exists goes totally wrong. Lets keep it simple and look at a single slit experiment. Take a look at the following image:
micro.magnet.fsu.edu...
You can see that after the slit, the wave propagates in a circular shape. Now we can ask which point of this wave will hit the screen first: it is the exact center, where the "P" is in the image. So if this is the place where the wave hits the screen first, this is also the place where the wave collapses, according to your argumentation. So shouldn't this also be the place where the observation of a particle is made? How do you explain that observations are also made in different places?
Originally posted by beebs
Well, it is the place we measure the 'collapsed' values. I am not sure whether or not the surrounding ripples in space(that have not interacted with the detector) actually cease to exist... this seems to be a good point for further investigation/discussion.
But as of right now, I think the prevailing interpretation would say that what happens is that the wave function superposition of the particle 'realizes' out of probability at the foremost edge of the spherical propagation when it encounters the detector.
Either way the detector is certainly the place where the observation of a 'particle' is made, because we can't measure it until we interact with it.
If observations are made in different places, of the same wave function, even after the leading edge interaction with the detector, then that would appear to be in favor of the WSM interpretation... wouldn't it?
But is that graph for a beam of light? Or one 'particle' at a time?
See, you have brought up one of the best points so far in the argument compared to the 'experts'.

The type of sophistry used in the heavily falsified theories of quantum eggheads are easily debunked by anyone who understands the devious path of their arguments. For example: the infamous and fallacious double slit experiment, is a concocted lie which insures those in academic control maintain that control. It is asserted by this devious theory that they are firing electrons "balls or marbles" through the two slits. producing interference patterns which look like light wave patterns created as light travels through the same two slits.
The lie and the devious manner of their proposition is revealed by the fact that the electrons they are firing through the slit are not balls or marbles in reality. They are electro-magnetic wave forms created as emission products in their electron gun. The academicians play a shell game with their audience. They swap balls and marbles for electro-magnetic waves by implying that the electrons they are shooting from their guns are the same mythematical electrons in their "theoretical" table of elements called the "Mendeleev Table".

Plato and Aristotle may be great sources for discussing philosophy, but please, how could they know anything about quantum mechanical observations? Did they do the double slit experiment? Study the photoelectric effect? Work with particle accelerators? We have observations today they probably didn't even conceive of. So let's explain the observations, if we can, and stop listing a bunch of names of dead people as if it means something when many of them didn't even know about the observations we have today.

I've stumbled across a website by a person who describes himself as a retired industrial scientist. I think his article "The Dual-Slit Experiment Myth" is thoughtful. The concluding sentence is:
The inference is that De Broglie's quantum frequency changes are more likely than positional jumps . . .
There are two classic dual-slit experiments. In the first, both slits are illuminated. The second holds that light is made to pass through only one. The accepted error is that there is no difference between the two respective interference patterns. As will be explained, this is not so.
In the latter, light “quanta” passing through one slit are, perforce, represented as knowing of the presence of the second. Worse, it has become accepted that a “quantum” of light can be in two places at once!
This legacy has engendered much of the illogicality in QM and the “dual nature” of light has acquired near-total credence. Indeed it has become a matter of perverse pride that QM is not logical.
. . . the two interference patterns are very different, as made plain by Max Born. In 1935, in his book “Atomic Physics” Blackie and Son, he contrasted the two patterns: the first, with all the maxima “equally bright”, the other, where “their intensity falls off from the middle outwards”.
This mimics pairs of radio antennae. Not surprising. Since both radio and light waves are electromagnetic, both engender interference when two or more sources interact. Radiation diagrams below show the contrasts at both radio and light frequencies.
Radio and optical interference compared
Hence :
1. A wave-front can, at once, impinge on both adjacent slits.
2. Light behaves much like radio waves.
3 Slits and antennae are both resonant elements.
4. Both can absorb and re-radiate incident electromagnetic energy.
5. A slit can behave like a driven antenna element.
6. A slit can also behave like an undriven (parasitic) antenna element.
7. Two adjacent illuminated slits correspond to the two driven antennae of a standard radio interferometer.
8. Electrons and light “quanta are members of a self-similar fractal hierarchy.
Conclusions
From the radio antenna paradigm:-
Telecomm. technology provides a better explanation of the dual-slit experiment than does the quasi-scientific version.
Slits behave like tuned (resonant) antenna elements.
No evidence is apparent here of particles/photons or of wave/ particle duality. Light is apparent only after the incidence of electromagnetic waves on macro surfaces (groups of atoms).
The purported “awareness” and “consciousness” are neither manifest nor pertinent. Similarly the concept of “Existence through Observation”.
The radio equivalent of an un-illuminated slit is the un-driven, or parasitic, element of the standard Yagi (TV) antenna. As in fig 2b above
The inference is that De Broglie's quantum frequency changes are more likely than positional jumps . . .
which also fits in with the idea that the universe is fractally organised.
