Default WHY EINSTEIN WORLD IS A ZOMBIE WORLD

This reprints an essay written ca. 1983, "'What Song the Syrens Sang':
How Did Einstein Discover Special Relativity?" in John Stachel,
Einstein from "B" to "Z".
"The idea that a light beam consisted of a stream of particles had
been espoused by Newton and maintained its popularity into the middle
of the 19th century. It was called the "emission theory" of light, a
phrase I shall use. The need to explain the phenomena of interference,
diffraction and polarization of light gradually led physicists to
abandon the emission theory in favor of the competing wave theory,
previously its less-favored rival. Maxwell's explanation of light as a
type of electromagnetic wave seemed to end the controversy with a
definitive victory of the wave theory. However, if Einstein was right
(as events slowly proved he was) the story must be much more
complicated. Einstein was aware of the difficulties with Maxwell's
theory-and of the need for what we now call a quantum theory of
electromagnetic radiation-well before publishing his SRT paper. He
regarded Maxwell's equations as some sort of statistical average-of
what he did not know, of course-which worked very well to explain many
optical phenomena, but could not be used to explain all the
interactions of light and matter. A notable feature of his first light
quantum paper is that it almost completely avoids mention of the
ether, even in discussing Maxwell's theory. Giving up the ether
concept allowed Einstein to envisage the possibility that a beam of
light was "an independent structure," as he put it a few years later,
"which is radiated by the light source, just as in Newton's emission
theory of light."


Einstein zombie world does not react even when hypnotists teach that
the theory of relativity and the emission theory of light are
COMPATIBLE:

http://press.princeton.edu/chapters/i6272.html
John Stachel: "Not only is the theory [of relativity] compatible with
an emission theory of radiation, since it implies that the velocity of
light is always the same relative to its source; the theory also
requires that radiation transfer mass between an emitter and an
absorber, reinforcing Einstein's light quantum hypothesis that
radiation manifests a particulate structure under certain
circumstances."


The compatibility between the theory of relativity and the emission
theory of light discovered by John Stachel will have serious
consequences in Einstein zombie world. All new relativities that are
more than Special - e.g. Sheldon Glashow's Very Special Relativity and
Lee Smolin's Doubly Special Relativity - will be forbidden. Hypnotists
will try to create relativities that are less than Special - e.g. Not
Quite Special Relativity, Insignificantly Special Relativity,
Vanishingly Special Relativity, Virtually Newtonian Relativity.
