Physics Journal News

This on-line physics journal news letter will begin in May of 2005. It is devoted to the latest in high-energy, nuclear and particle physics research data and related fields that will include important developments from fusion, plasma and condensed matter research. The news letter will also include the newest engineering developments, experimental techniques, laboratory apparatus and elementary particle detection schemes and it will include discussions on the potential of data application along with commentary from the author when necessary. The theoretical implications of this new research will be considered in a straight forward manner, including any results that may have a negative impact upon current views. The material for the articles will come directly from laboratories such as CERN, Lawrence Livermore, Berkeley, SLAC, Brookhaven, DESY and various University research facilities, and include sources such as published papers from other physics journals, such as Physics Review C and IOP Physics G and information from APS and other physics conferences, presentations and other related sources.

1. Neutrino and Antineutrino particles have mass! This knowledge contradicts all current nuclear and particle models!

Although some scientists, including this author, have known for many years that neutrino particles have mass and that every experiment involving neutrinos demonstrated the obvious existence of this mass, most particle physicists refused to see or accept the evidence until very recently. Finally, by the end of 2004 the evidence was absolutely conclusive and scientists could no longer disregard neutrino mass. The reason the existence of neutrino mass was sidestepped for more than fifty years, after it was first detected and seventy five years after it was proposed, was because all of the most prestigious mainstream theories require the existence of a '0' mass neutrino that must also propagate at v = c. After all, if the neutrino has mass, then how could it also have a velocity of c, where c is the speed of light? Any particle with mass that also has a velocity of c, would violate the laws and theoretical basis of the models above including Relativity, and this would invalidate their postulates and should have serious adverse consequences for all current theories and models. This means that either the theories were wrong along with 80 years of outlandish concepts that were based upon them or the concept that "only a '0' mass particle could travel at the speed of light", because, according to Relativity, if it has mass, then an infinite amount of energy would be required to propel that particle at c. Since an infinite amount of energy does not exist, then no particle with mass could propagate at v = c. Originally, a '0' mass neutrino was proposed by Pauli in 1930 to explain a mass deficit that was observed in most nuclear experiments and natural events; it was necessary to address the Conservation of Mass, Charge, Rest Mass, Energy and Momentum, which, it was thought, the neutrino would satisfy through its proposed properties of '0' mass, '0' electric charge, and velocity of v = c. Previously, however, the '0' mass particle concept was applied to the particle of light, the photon and for stated reasons, it was applied to the subject particle. The '0' mass neutrino became mandatory to justify the principles of nuclear models that followed and extended to all related subject theories that emerged after the 1930's, including those that were developed before, and the requirement carried forward and remained a key principal in all modern theories. In addition, if the neutrino had mass than it could not account for the mass deficit of those countless nuclear interactions; nearly every nuclear interaction, according to the models above, results in a mass deficit, where, as in so many interactions, the product particle or nucleus weights less than sum of incident particles or nuclei as compared to the original free-state mass of the nucleons.

Keep in mind that QCD and the Standard Model contain an insurmountable theoretical restriction, one that prescribes an inflexible substructure for protons or neutrons consisting of three indivisible quarks. If the three particles that make-up a proton are fundamental and therefore indivisible, then how could there be a change in mass (Dm) for each proton and neutron involved? With this restriction, there is no way to account for a resultant mass deficit after an interaction or a nuclear mass defect (change in rest mass) that take place during a fusion or fission event. All such events require a massless neutrino to carry away this loss of mass, otherwise, the predicted experimental results and calculations will have irreconcilable errors, which nevertheless exist, but are ignored or allowed to be ignored through the use of fuzzy mathematics.

This author predicted the minimum neutrino mass back in 1998 in several writings, and again in 1999 with the publication of "The Order of the Forces", which describes the Geatron Nuclear Model.
