The way to do such is kinda simple in thought but of course hard in the reality of the way you need to hold particles.
:) First thing you need is a particle that is about 2 times the mass of an electron but two electrons will not do. maybe if a molecule could be used it would be best.. Then you need to get that baby up to as close to light speed as you can. and then of course, you need to smash it into a single electron that is basically at rest when it hits it. The mass being double of the object it is hitting should act like a baseball being hit by a ball that has two times the mass. Too bad particle accelerators can't do that yet with single molecules and single particles.. Or can they? maybe a magnetic molecule? I don't think they can but I could be wrong and someone might "freak out the science world" soon if so.
Remember you heard it here first.. and if it works I will of course give credit to the un-named poster.

Protons and neutrons have rest masses some 1800 times that of an electron (or positron). No ejecta travelling at greater than c is ever observed.

In fact as I have learned it looks like they have never gotten a single electron to do anything yet, and it is always a group of way more that one. Got any reference of single particles only?
Greg Neill - 04 Jul 2008 15:37 GMT >>> Thanks to an un-named poster (don't want to get him in trouble) >>> [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] > that one. > Got any reference of single particles only? Targets contain electrons, since atoms do. Plenty of electrons. Their speeds are small compared to that of the projectiles, and in fact, statistically a significant percentage of them will be moving towards the projectiles, actually adding a tiny bit to the collision speed.
Doing particle physics one shot at a time would be ludicrous. The particles are so small that the individual probability of making a direct hit is almost vanishingly small. You could wait several lifetimes for a single event to occur.
Instead, batches of particles with the same kinetic energy are thrown at a suitable target comprised of many of the desired target particles. Statistically, the odds are good that one or more of the desired collisions will take place, and the detectors sort out the shrapnel.

:) To get the "baseball effect" you need more mass hitting a "free single mass" not a conglomeration of masses that are actually bound together.

Hardly a consideration at the energies involved. The energy to remove an electron entirely from an atom is a few electron volts. The incoming projectiles are carrying billions of electron volts of energy. The atoms might as well not be there.
> To get the "baseball effect" you need more mass hitting > a "free single mass" not a conglomeration of masses > that are actually bound together. Nah. Hit a piece of concrete with a hammer and see how fast the chips fly.

You can use you math all your want, but until you actually do something in that exact way, the math is not proven at all.

I know it will travel further and faster when I hit the single chip in the same direction I am hitting it in. Don't you believe that part? The target being a "wall" is automatically not gonna let the single particle travel as fast as it could if not "part of a wall".

Correct, but that is the only way you are going to get a single particle to move FTL if anything. Hitting the wall with the hammer will never make parts fly as fast as hitting the parts without the wall.

:) So far you want me to say that a wall of "baseballs glued to another wall" is the same thing as hitting a single baseball. with the bat. It is far from it. Think about it.. It is not the same and of course you will not get the same speed or outcome of the particles motion.

Greg Neill - 04 Jul 2008 17:20 GMT >>> You just confirmed what I thought, >>> No single electron target. [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > actually do something in that exact way, the math is not > proven at all. Very silly. Imposing irrelevant requirements and conditions in order to ignore experimental results is not reasonable. The binding energy holding electrons to atoms is utterly negligible compared to the energy of the incoming projectiles.
>>> To get the "baseball effect" you need more mass hitting >>> a "free single mass" not a conglomeration of masses [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > the single particle travel as fast as it could if not "part of a > wall". Let's see your estimate of the effect of the atom's electron binding energy on the result. Given that the mass of the projectiles is more than 1800 times the mass of the electron, and that they are carrying billions of times the binding energy, what do you think the effect on the recoil velocity will be?
>> I didn't make nature the way it is. Trying to hit >> a specific individual particle with another individual [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > Correct, but that is the only way you are going to > get a single particle to move FTL if anything. Why? Can you give a *valid* reason for this condition?
> Hitting the wall with the hammer will never make parts > fly as fast as hitting the parts without the wall. Actually, you can get more velocity if the wall holds the fragment rigidly in place... The time of "contact" between the impactor and the fragment is lengthened, transferring more momentum into the fragment by temporarily storing energy in atomic bonds, like electromagnetic elastic bands. When they let go: snap! zing!

It would be more like a wall of baseballs floating in space, each held in place by a single slender silk strand, and firing near speed of light 1800-pound cannon shots at it. You decide whether or not the silk strands will make a significant difference.
Spaceman - 04 Jul 2008 19:15 GMT > Very silly.

Irrelevant conditions? You have totally lost now Greg. If an experiment tells you to stand on your head to see the correct results that the experiment is predicting, you are supposed to stand on your head to get such results. Not following an experiment to the letter is of course a failure of doing the actual experiment as stated at all.

Estimates are for selling used cars. Experiments use measurements gathered from the experiment as stated. No changes, and predictions are allowed but not the law of the experiment itself. Predict all you want. Without doing the experiment to prove such predictions, they are worth only the paper and scratchings they are made up of.
> Why? Can you give a *valid* reason for this condition? The same reason to make the baseball fly faster, you would want it to measure it traveling in the direction you wanted it to be hit towards.

So you are sayign a wall covered in baseballs with the wall behind them as you hit one of them will show that baseball you hit to be flying faster than if you hit a single baseball off of a tee? That is sad Greg. C,mon.. think about that sillynesss.

Otherwise it is justy goofing off and ignoring the experiment as stated and doing your own different experiment completely.

The target is not floating, and the wall is holding the intended single target from moving in the direction stated in the experiment. You really should stop this Greg. Or is it you would hate to see FTL actually occur because it would tear down your church with the power and speed of destruction of a nuke?
Experiments that are not followed the same as stated are simply not the same experiment at all. Why would you think anything different? That would be very unscientific of you.

Imposing silly conditions not based upon an analysis of the situation is silly. First you need choose a model of the thing you want to study.

And I say that the presence of the atomic nuclei and the electromagnetic bonds holding the electrons is utterly negligible. eV versus GeV, no contest.

What? Tell me how a thin target sample in an accelerator would differ from the above analogy. Samples like gold foil (with plenty of electrons) can be made as thin as a few atoms. Gold nuclei take up about 1/3000th of the diameter of a gold atom (Rutherford's gold foil experiments), the rest being empty space where the electrons are. That means that the atom's overall volume is about 10^13th times that of the nucleus. In a thin foil, an electron struck by a high speed projectile would fly utterly unimpeded through the virtually empty space of the foil thickness and on to the detectors.

I've explained that the differences in the proposed setup are entirely irrelevant to the expected results. That's by "scientific" analysis of the situation. What have you done except whine? I think you're just disappointed that your idea is about a hundred years old and has already yielded verified results that do not support your position.

>> Hey, new physics would be wonderful.

New physics can't change old experimental results. Observations remain no matter what. The best that can happen is to push experiments into new territories (typically higher energies) where we hope that current physics might break down or new phenomena reveal themselves.
>> Nonsense. Paramters shown to be irrelevant are, well, >> irrelevant. > > Changing a setup is not irrelevant, > It is what science is all about. You *must* show that the proposed changes will make an impact on the desired observations. I have a convincing argument that the energies involved in the binding energies for electrons to atoms are utterly insignificant compared to the energies being brought to bear by the projectiles. You have not countered that argument in any way except to wave your hands and moan. Again, I think you're just trying to salvage your position and to hell with common sense.

So, in your world scientific analysis is ignorance, while claiming an unjustified, unspecified effect is scientific and a paragon of critical thinking. That's a most enlightening revelation of your thought processes, James.

Spaceman - 04 Jul 2008 22:03 GMT > It is your ignorance of what parameters constitute > the important and relevant components of the > experiement as opposed to irrelevant factors that > would not impact the results. Greg, If you don't wish to do an experiment as stated, you should just ignore all experiments since you already know everything that can happen in the Entire Universe already.
any slight change in an experiment changes the final results. If you do not wish to try the change no matter how slightly different. It is you that is still left without an experimental science at all.

It all matters if the experiment could be affected by such. We are not talking about lab coats here either. We are talking about direct changes in the actual experiment itselfs facts.
> Please then explain precicely the differences in the > proposed setups and their expected order of magnitude > influence on the results. Show your work. Are you that freakin ignorant? The differences were explained. You simply ignore them and say there are none. yet 1 particle is not more than 1 particle. So you seem to think 1 = more than one. That is again real sad. Non scientific at all.
> That is ridiculous. I've explained that the differences in > the proposed setup are entirely irrelevant to the expected [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > and has already yielded verified results that do not support > your position. You have given explanations that do not come close to using the thoughts as stated. You have made your own experiment that is not the same to be considered the same. Again, non scientific at all. And again you lie about such beign tried. Not once has single particle as the target been tried. You prove once more you do not even know what experimentation is all about.
I can see this conversatuion with you is futile. I will simply have to agree on the disagreement, but of course. you are the one that does not know how to actually do experiments if all you do is write out on a piece of paper and say.. That won't work.
:) So Greg, try it just for fun Take your baseballs and glue them together with the same strength of electron/electron bond but scaled up to baseball size. and hit the baseball in the middle with a bowling ball.. Then try the single baseball on a tee instead. Until you find there is a difference. You are not experimenting at all and that means you are not being scientific at all either. And that is just plain old sad ignorance of science.

> any slight change in an experiment changes the > final results. The important thing is, by how much? Some things make essentially no difference. The effect you're looking for is for an object of one unit of mass to be struck by another of 1836 units of mass travelling at nearly c to produce a recoil velocity greater than c.
By simple Newtonian physics the recoil velocity would be in the neighborhood of 1800c for nearly head on collisions. You are arguing that the miniscule grasp that an atom has on the electron will reduce that to below 1c. How can you possibly justify that position?

Spaceman - 04 Jul 2008 23:00 GMT >>> It is your ignorance of what parameters constitute >>> the important and relevant components of the [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Illogical argument. No, It is simply stating you should forget experimental science because you do not want to follow the facts stated for doing the experiment correctly. And you do such because you know everything about experiments because you have all the math needed to never have to experiment at all.
>> any slight change in an experiment changes the >> final results. [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > 1836 units of mass travelling at nearly c to > produce a recoil velocity greater than c. The correct way is having a larger nuclear bonded mass "hit" a single small mass particle. Basically a molecule traveling at as close to c as it can hitting an electron that is "at rest".

Please show me this experiment you speak of that the target is a single electron thick. I would love to see such data and pictures too of course.

Please show me where they used a single electron thick target and hit it with a molecule at close to c. Until you show such, The experiment has never been done with data collected.

Again Greg, Not one time have they sent a load of "molecules" to hit single layer electron targets in parrallel conditions. So, as usual you are ignoring the difference of the proposed experiment.
> You have no clue about what is relevant and what is not. > You are arguing that decidedly insignificant details > can utterly mask or destroy your proposed effects. > It's like arguing that a pebble on the beach can halt > a 100 foot tsunami. No it is not. It is stating the pebble on the beach will make a difference and such a difference would be in fact "different".

[quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > Basically a molecule traveling at as close > to c as it can hitting an electron that is "at rest". What a magnificently horrible idea. First, molecules are not "nuclear bonded". They are electromagnetically bonded. Secondly, a molecule has so many internal degrees of freedom -- places where energy can go -- that your collision would produce essentially random results. Thirdly, an electron is very, very small, and the proposed collision could only take place in the vicinity of *one* atom in out of the whole molecule. Most of it would just be along for the ride as a potential energy sink.

A few atoms thick. But atoms are mostly empty space, so anything moving above electron drift speed across its width is almost guaranteed a completely unobstructed path (which is why you want to fire plenty of projectiles to be sure to hit something inb the first place). Gold foils are thin enough to see through.
For the early experiments, looks up Rutherford's gold foil experiments. You can do your own leg work for the subsequent stuff. Some science history books might be a good place to get some background.

You just don't want to recognize that fact, and impose ridiculous irrelevant conditions to make "your" version different. Well it's not different in any relevant or meaningful way.
Besides, how would you propose to "hold" a sningle particle anyways? Your only viable choice would be to hold it in an electromagnetic field of some sort. That is just what atoms do.

You see problems where others see opportunities. Atoms conveniently arrange themselves in easily manipulated patterns that provide ideal targets and target holders for accelerator experiments. They hold onto electrons with a tiny, insignificant grasp compared to the energies of the projectiles. For all intents and purposes the electrons are just sitting there suspended before the accelerator beam. Only you won't admit that because your house of cards crumbles if you can't find a point to hold out on to say your experiment is different, despite not being able (or willing) to justify it!

So if I'd understand it straight, you wan't a neutron to hit a neutrino by frontal collizion and observe the speeding neutrino.
m*v = M*V 1. v = 10 V = 0 2. v = 8 V = 4 3. v = 7 V = 6 It looks it doesn't work. The V will not get over 10 ever.
The problem is the internal elasticity. If the speed of transfer would be sufficiently high, we can have FTL computers, and could play games at resolution 10240x a lot. So far no ground breaking research about materials with an ability to move signals throught patches inside at FTL speeds.

Hmm, So basically we would need to get the "orbiting planet" to crash directly instead of the sun doing the crashing and the planet doing the knocking the broken stuff away after the crash. Simple enough in thought. timing of course become very critical when dealing with atomic orbits.

The supposition in the suggestion that has been made to you is apparently that momentum is mass x velocity. That is an incorrect formula for momentum, though that formula can be used as an adequate approximation at low speeds.

Did you read what I posted for the requirements? Here it is in the most simple form possible by me.
One single "at rest electron" being hit by one single heavier mass moving as close to lightspeed as possible before collision. Why do you think that has been done at all? Hint: It has not ever been done so stop thinking it has. HERA used way more than one for both masses.

James has some bizarre idea that the effect he is looking for (greater than c recoil velocities) can only be seen if spurious conditions that he arbitrarily chooses are met. Apparently he believes in magic rather than science, voodoo rather than technology. Anything can happen if you just wear the right color socks.
He knows damn well that his argument is lost if he admits that his experiment has a known result, so he dances around the failure by making more and more ludicrous conditions to be met. Now he is apparently arguing that the individual collisions in the HERA accelerator are not individual enough. Next I expect he'll be dictating which days of the week are propitious for a positive result (the others guaranteeing failure), and the required phase of the moon. Oh, and everyone has to stand on their left foot while facing north and blinking three times.

Until you do, you are just blowing sh.t out your a.s and thinking it smells wonderful and of course passing it around to other relativists also so they can smell the rose smell from your sh.t also. Truly the saddest form of science there could be. Saying stuff has been done that has not. It seems lying the the most important part of relativity now.

See? Now he attributes an electron at rest with some special voodoo powers that will affect the outcome. Apparently no other condition will do!
If he knew anything at all about collisions and conservation laws he'd be rooting for the electrons to be travelling as quickly as possible towards the protons -- the collision will add practically all of that momentum to the recoil. When the impactor is much more massive than the impactee, as it is with a proton colliding with an electron, then in a Newtonian collision this effectively adds the impactee's initial speed to the speed of the recoil.
So if the proton moving at nearly c can make a stationary electron recoil at nearly 2c (pretending for a moment that Newtonian rules apply), the same proton colliding with an electron moving at nearly c in the opposite direction would cause a recoil of nearly 3c for the electron.
