THE ELECTRON- POSITRON LATTICE (EPOLA) MODEL OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD

Contributions by M. Simhony

  1. The Electron Positron Lattice; 30 page article, Submitted to the Physical Review D in March 1973. Abstract published in the Bulletin of the American Physical Society, Volume 18, Dec.1973, p.1579. In short notation: Bull. APS 18 (1973) 1959.

This and tens of other related articles were rejected by "leading" physics journals, all without pointing out a single mistake, just by saying "contradicts accepted scientific knowledge", "is too speculative", "does not fit the scope of the journal", and similar suppressive "shut up" non-scientific reasons.

The policy of rejecting everything which contradicts accepted theories, especially relativity and quantum theory, was started in the 1930ies, after the 150 years long "freedom of publication" era in physics. During this era, papers, in which referees could not find mistakes, were published, no matter whether and how much they contradicted the "accepted scientific knowledge". Therefore, the highly controversial papers of Max Planck on quanta (1900) and of Albert Einstein on relativity (1905) were published, not rejected. It seems that Einstein initiated the rejection policy, by turning down (in 1919) Kaluza's paper on a five- dimensional space-time, because it contradicted Einstein's four- dimensional system.

Rejection of the papers on the epola structure of space does not mean that the epola model is wrong, and should not even be considered as an indication of it being wrong. Most of the Contributions listed are presentations at scientific meetings and conferences, in which the rightness of the epola considerations were checked.
