“Here we report measurements of the X-ray photoemission delay of core-level electrons, with unexpectedly large delays,..”

As usual, Einsteins theory on photoelectrics is being proven once again to be pseudoscience. As the above quote from the linked papers abstract reveals. Problem is the theorists including those writing this paper just can’t bring themselves to admit that Einstein invented imaginary photons in 1905 purely as an excuse to validate the ludicrous claims in his soon to be published paper on special relativity. Knowing that the wave only theory of light accepted at the time was not consistent with his soon to be published fantasy of imaginary photons always travelling at c in all frames in his next paper on special relativity.
The photon model is possibly one of the greatest obstacles to our understanding of the universe. Hubble, Planck and many other leading theorists at the time never accepted cosmological redshift was due to expansion. But because Einstein and his ludicrous quasi religious fantasies had by the 1920’s become to be worshipped and revered, nobody could accept that Hubble had just discovered that photons DID indeed lose energy over distance. A discovery that invalidated both of Einsteins 1905 Photoelectric and Special Relativity papers. And the continuing dogmatic adherence to anything Einstein published still prevents today’s theorists from understanding this basic fact: That light isn’t a photon. It is a wave only phenomena. And further to that...Electrons are also fantasies. Electric current can be much better modelled as variations in strength and orientations of adjacent atoms magnetic fields.
I have argued for many years on this blog that the photoelectric effect can be easily explained as a non relativistic classical wave only effect. Where light is a wave that gets “quantised” into packets of wave only electrical current by the detector atom. Using well documented and still scientifically accepted understanding of resonance in those resonating systems called atoms. No need for imaginary particles like photons or electrons. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8H9kx9_sQYA
