Yet, over the past few years, it has become clear that the tools exist to slow down, speed up or even completely stop light propagation. This realization has certainly had a profound impact on the optics community from the point of view of fundamental science and has led to the suggestion and exploration of a number of practical applications within various areas."

What is the refractive index, dispersion, and gyrotropy associated with the "medium"? If vacuum is a medium, why is there no Faraday effect associated with it, no Doppler shift from its movement with respect to an observer? If vacuum is a medium, where is its inertia? -- Uncle Al http://www.mazepath.com/uncleal/ (Toxic URL! Unsafe for children and most mammals) http://www.mazepath.com/uncleal/lajos.htm#a2 |

Last time I checked a vacuum was still a medium.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - xxein: A vacuum is the absence of a media. What we usually call a vacuum is really an energy web between masses. But don't believe me! Light has a speed limit but only in (wrt) the web (universe). It can escape to beyond the web but then maintains any speed it had once losing it's connective posture. It could be slingshotted by mass into the true vacuum and have a vc. There is an entropy - but it might only seem so temporarily. It's easy to lose track of where energy goes and/or whether it remains in connection. There is too much we haven't considered as being logical because we always think we know it all. It is fortified by predicatively. Um. What was our prediction before the A-bomb? That it might destroy the whole Earth in a chain reaction? Many thought that. What nether-land are we in now? Our always prevailing and current thoughts come from a belief we had in the past. We've had sparks of change that pull us out now and then, but we still dwell in a belief. Haven't we had enough sparks of change by now to rise above a belief and describe our 'present' without a past belief hanging out of its ass? I'm serious. Do you think you know absolutely everything about gravity? I don't, although I may be light-years ahead of you. I'm not picking on you. I'm picking on the state of knowledge we profoundly express without a hint that it will be provably wrong in the future. Do you get it? Btw, I only used your post to express this. Nothing personal. Thx. |
