EU models routinely FAIL as I have exposed. <br /><br />All EU claimed 'successes' in these areas are basically stolen from legitimate researchers.<br /><br />If one hopes to have an actual career in a space-related industry, one has to know the REAL science.W.T."Tom" Bridgmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10889134728080314165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2361412992308994774.post-32099613056388839542014-07-04T12:08:12.807-04:002014-07-04T12:08:12.807-04:00I appreciate the information, I will look more int...I appreciate the information, I will look more into it in the future.

That holds true for Alfven's flare mechanism and the heliospheric circuit. Even the 'double layers' which Alfven invoked in some cases were not due to externally-applied fields but a due to mechanisms similar to those I describe in <a href="http://dealingwithcreationisminastronomy.blogspot.com/2012/02/365-days-of-astronomy-electric-universe.html" rel="nofollow">365 Days of Astronomy: The Electric Universe</a>.W.T."Tom" Bridgmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10889134728080314165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2361412992308994774.post-7541429117725030042014-07-03T10:04:53.197-04:002014-07-03T10:04:53.197-04:00Tom quoted Hannes Alfven as saying:

This technique has not been available until the last few years and is a result of the so-called thermonuclear research. This research got its start from astrophysics - as is illustrated not only by the term “Stellarator”, but also by the name of Spitzer - and it still gets much inspiration from cosmical electrodynamics.'” <br /><br />I fail to see where this quote shows Alfven's rejection of the electric universe, or acceptance of the nuclear fusion model. Yes he uses the word "thermonuclear research", are you sure you aren't looking for a different quote?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2361412992308994774.post-65281681556737798242009-11-19T21:21:07.317-05:002009-11-19T21:21:07.317-05:00Thanks for the reminder.

This correlates well, so he tells us, with medical evidence that electric shocks have an effect on the language centres of the brain.<br /><br />I found this, and other powerful arguments about the electric universe, in what apparently constitutes his answer to Bridgman, Part II, which I had been patiently waiting for.<br /><br />--Dan<br />University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
