Quantum jumps of sound

The original Makihara et al paper is paywalled unfortunately but this Stanford article says the researchers Takuma Makihara and Erik Szakiel developed “a way to pair a microscopic mechanical resonator with a superconducting qubit, which is an electrical circuit that can store quantum information and serve as a detector.”

According to the article this experiments results can only be described as a quantum like in behaviour. Apparently unlike a ‘classical resonating bell atom model’ which predicts a gradual ringing decline the research showed the ring abruptly stopped ringing and thus exhibited what could only be classified as a quantum jump. Not possible with a classical model they suggest.

Unfortunately the technical details of the paper are paywalled but from what available information is available in the article it seems this observed “jump” can still be made consistent with a classical model.

Notice in the article it is a “qubit” device which samples the ring down hundreds of times during the 2 millisecond time constraint of the experiment. Each sample length for the qubit must then be less than 100th of a millisecond. Essentially each qubit sample must then measure enough vibrational energy per this fractional time unit to trigger a positive +1 reading in the qubit. Below this, the qubit cannot receive enough vibrational energy within each qubit sample’s <1/100ms time limit to trigger a positive reading. Even if the resonating device  were still vibrating and producing the ring down as its vibrations declined gradually in strength.

In other words there still can be a classical ring down occurring from the resonator in the experiment but the qubit measuring device cannot measure the vibrations from the resonator when the resonators vibrational energy decreases to below the qubits detection threshold for each of the qubit samples <1/100ms time length. The qubit needs at least a certain amount of energy to trigger a 1 reading. Below that it will trigger a zero reading even if the resonator is still vibrating slightly.

No quantum theory is needed to describe the classical ring down of a resonating system. It’s just that the “quantum” device or “qubit” cannot measure resonant energy below a certain energy threshold during the time threshold constraint imposed on it by its <1/100millisecond sample time length.

Photon from GRB travelled 2 billion light years, impossible under current theory.

In a recent article apparently an impossibly high energy photon was “observed” to have travelled 2 billion light years before being observed here on earth. Currently theory has GRB’s as massive cosmic explosions. Yet since the 90’s this model has consistently failed to predict each new set of GRB observations.  The reason for this consistent record of failure of GRB theory lies as usual with relativity theory. The theoretical backbone of all faked current and past GRB models.

However this problem does not occur if one assumes (the well observed fact) that light is wave only and travels at c only relative to its source then all of the last 100 or so years of failed predictions from black hole, Big Bang  and gammaray bursts theories can be avoided. As pointed out numerous times here on this blog.

Because if one ignores the false assumptions of relativity and its misguided progeny the Big Bang theory, then a GRB can be explained, not as an explosion, but rather as a rapidly red shifting stellar source in a non expanding universe from great cosmological distances being observed here on earth. An optical illusion rather than a real explosion. An “explosion” model which incidentally  has consistently failed to model each new set of observed data on GRB’s year on year since the early 90’s when theorists thought they must be either nuclear tests by Russians or at best supernovae like explosions from within our own galaxy. When at the same time in the early nineties the red shifting optical illusion model described in this blog which predicted, among other consistently successful predictions, that they would appear to be isotropic in the sky and have self similar light curves extending to highest ( and lowest) energies possible. These latest “impossibly high” energies have been predicted for 35 years. And for two decades here on this blog. 

The big question is: How much longer will it be before the scientific community wakes up and realises that relativity and the Big Bang theory are pseudoscience at best.
