MycroftHomlzsays...I wonder if they mention magnetic reconnection...
cybrbeastsays...Interesting, but hardly convincing. In part two they go on to say that Einstein was fundamentally wrong. Also plasma cosmologist represent a fringe group and their theories have little acceptance in the wider scientific community.
Irishmansays...No this is it, this is exactly right. Electromagnetism is matter, you can derive equations for matter, for particles, including DeBroglie waves that quantum physicists completely ignore, from Maxwells equations for electromagnetism.
It doesn't say that Einstein was fundamentally wrong, it says that the interpretation of relativity was wrong, and it was, unfortunately. Einstein said that the more predictions that quantum theory made the sillier it looked. This clip is exactly the line of thinking that Einstein was on, so was Tesla, so was Maxwell, so was Bohm.
You only need two forces for this to work, gravity and electromagnetism. And we have only ever detected those two forces. The mainstream view is that you need four forces, gravity, EM, and strong and weak nuclear forces. Guess what, no matter how big a particle accelerator we build we cannot find those nuclear forces. Every time we build a bigger one the equations are changed and they put the Higgs at a higher energy level. When you try to work them out on paper you need infinite energy to hold the protons together in the nucleus of every atom. They botch the infinities, they normalise them, it's a complete mess.
I'll tell you what's not convincing, dark matter, dark energy, and force carrying particles like the Higgs and the other Bosons. You can derive everything from gravity and EM, you can even derive relativity from the same EM wave equations.
If you want to study something that isn't convincing, you need look no further than the mess that is quantum mechanics and string theory. Many are abandoning the field. Relativity is safer in the hands of the plasma guys than it is with the charlatans of QM and String.
