Constants of physics
Published by admin July 6th, 2007 in UncategorizedWhy do physicists still use a dead language developed in the 18th century? The analog of this would be someone who speaks in King James version with utter seriousness.
In fact this is not correct. Physics is changing continuously. Physics is a new language. No physicist who tried to read Newton’s Principia would understand it.
But this is not true either. Physics is not really updating itself as quickly as it is necessary. It has been known since 1987 that Cavendish did not measure the Newtonian constant G and the article proving this fact was published in the American Journal of Physics, one of the official organs of physics profession. A decade later physics literature is still littered with claims that Cavendish measured G. In other words physics code changes in geological time. It took physicists 50 plus years to define their new official theory labeled string theory as unknown and unknowable therefore the true language of Nature.
Physicists still teach and discuss Bohr’s model of the atom! Physicists still teach Coulomb’s law based on an experiment of three measurements. Physicists still teach and repeat every one of Einstein scribbles as if they were revelatory truths. Physicists still teach and discuss the cosmological constant.
That’s the key. As a scholastic profession there is only one method for the physics professional to advance in the hierarchy: write commentary on legal topics. Cosmological constant has absolutely no relevance in physics, in science or in nature but it is legal. In other words it is a perfect seed for commentary. Scholastic doctors make a career removing and putting back the cosmological constant in canonized equations. Each such cosmological mechanics means a paper and an authority point for the scholastic doctor.
So, physics is not a language used to study nature but it is a label factory physicists use to define, design and market new labels in order to move up in the hierarchy. They market their labels to the Big Media and the Big Media selects a few of them each season to hype as the latest advance in the landscape of “science.” Poor science!amish loans mortgage2522dean 2bsloan 2ba 2522loan credit no 800-718-6460401 k credit union loan vsa 7 loan5 loan 3loan rate best home aa car loanto access loanloans 4 studentfor daycare accreditationprograms manager accredited propertyfirst george st union america creditunion mortgage american association creditcard california account merchant credit servicesiso accreditationaccredited estate planneracting credit commercial tv ads Map
