CONCLUSIONS REGARDING IaSNe OBSERVATIONS
by Dwain W. Higginbotham 16 Aug 2008

Ia type supernovae are the best “standard candles� ever discovered.
When a IaSne explodes in a non red-shifted environment, it reaches
maximum brightness in 21 Earth days. This is called the rise time of the

Actually it's about 19.5 +- 0.2 days, but that's not important for what

light curve. When a IaSNe occurs in a red-shifted galaxy, you can tell
how fast it is moving, relative to us, by how long its’ rise time
appears to take to reach maximum brightness. By the science of simple

Actually that's not true. The rise time of a type Ia supernova depends on
the energy involved and not the relative movement. Note that observations
clearly show that the rise time is related to the peak luminosity, not
the red-shift of the spectrum.

optics, the rise time, from our vantage point, increases exactly by the
same percentage of the speed of light that it is moving away from us.
10.5 days longer at 50% l/s and 42 days at the speed of light. A short

You really ought to post the derivation of this since it seems like
nonsense.

time before 1998, astronomers found a way to locate and observe IaSNe
explosions all over the universe at sub-luminal speeds and two teams of
them erroneously concluded that the rate of expansion of the Universe
was accelerating because they appeared DIMMER than they were expecting
them to be. By 2003 thousands of IaSNE had been discovered up to 170% of
light speed, but the ones above light speed were BRIGHTER than expected,

Huh? Cite references. I know of none that support your claim.

and they were nonplussed. The consensus written by Robert Kirshner in
“Science� magazine on 20 June 2003, was that the Universe had shifted
from deceleration to acceleration about 7 billion light years ago. A
month earlier I had already copyrighted the idea that the “Milky Way�
and “local group� orbited the now quiescent center of the Universe and
these new observations cinched it. The ONLY POSSIBLE explanation of how

How did these observations cinch your claim? As far as we know, there is
no center of the universe. Unless you claim that the Great Attractor is
the center of the universe (it is not), your claim is silly.

in the universe to accomplish the feat.

They were being nice.

Since our local group orbits the center, it stands to reason all

Prove that. Prove the existence of the center. Once you do that you will
have proven that the Great Attractor is the center of the universe.
However, it is near impossible that it is.

the red-shifted galaxies came out of that center and orbit it as well,
only at speeds exceeding escape velocity, using simple centrifugal force
to power the expansion, instead of “dark energy�. Since the center is

A couple of things here. If the center of the universe is the Great
Attractor, then how do you explain that the red shifts all seem to be
relative to Earth rather than the Great Attractor? Also, if there were a
universal centrifugal force, then why is there no bias toward the poles
of the rotation that you claim? The evidence seems to disprove your claim.

quiet now and a one time “big bang� would have precluded our gently
orbiting local group, it must erupt periodically, much like “Old
Faithful�, I won’t hazard a guess about how long the eruptions last, but
if any credence can be given to the 13.7 billion year age of our local
group, (all the other galaxies are older, the further they are from us),

Mmmmmm. The 13.7 Ga age comes from the Big-Bang Theory and applies to all
galaxies, not just our local group. If you accept that age, then
implicitly you accept the Big-Bang Theory and your claim is voided.

that is when the last eruption ceased. petering out at the end with the
creation of only enough matter, out of whatever “stuff� Mother Nature
uses, to form the 40 or so galaxies of the local group. I don’t see the
necessity for any more heat being generated during the eruption, other
than enough to keep the newly formed matter in a gaseous state until it
can form itself into Hydrogen etc. and then stars and galaxies. This, of
course, means that the CMBR is not relict radiation from a big bang. I

The CMBR (Cosmic Background Radiation) is a blackbody curve. The way such
radiation curves come about, as evidenced by experiment, is energy
confined in a bounded vessel. The idea is that the the bounding vessel is
our universe. As the universe expands, it cools. The observations fit the
model, so if you have another idea, you need to show how you can explain
things that the Big-Bang Theory can't. Just coming up with bogus stuff to
try to invalidate Big-Bang is like trying to prove the existence of
Bigfoot with hoaxes.

believe it is caused by gravitational energy in groups of galaxies
causing the Aether to radiate at various wavelengths as they pass

How? Post details.

The 2.7 degK number applies to the whole universe. If it were to apply
only to the local group, then you would have to explain how the CMBR
blackbody radiation curve results from phenomena that don't give rise to
a blackbody radiation curve in our local group.

The non-radiating phenomenon also explains Quasars since they are
all at super-luminal distances, but because there are only 100,000 of

Super-luminal distances? I assume you mean like Z3, which conforms to
the Big-Bang model as evidenced by their measurements in association with
the ICRF. By the way, if they are non-radiating, how do you see them?

Take a science class.

Since we have no evidence of there being other Universes, I see

Wow, I (and science) agree with that. Hope springs eternal.

system must be zero, and since there is evidence of entropy, the

Net entropy equalling zero means that there are no net thermodynamic
states available in the universe. Think about the implication of such a
claim.

No. It means that there must be negative entropy, since the sum (net) has
to equal zero (under your claim) and there are positive entropy systems
right here on Earth. Since negative entropy systems are ruled out by the
Second Law of Thermodynamics, your claim is busted.

Perpetual motion machines require the curl of the underlying forces to be
non-zero. Since all the fundamental forces of the universe have curl
equal to zero, there are no perpetual motion machines.
