Bravo Al I have long held that Bell's Theorem  was a sort of self-inflicted confidence trick physicist play on themselves. Ironically the main culprit in creating quantum weirdness is the person who complained most about such ideas - spookiness and EPR: Einstein himself. 

As Eric Reiter (who kindly introduced me to this erstwhile Group) has proved experimentally and researched historical theoretical justifications, there is no duality - the photon is never a point particle in flight and no probabilistic interpretation is needed in Copenhagen or elsewhere. I wonder his results are not discussed and encouraged here.

John W I sympathize with the 400 papers you needed to correct! More power to you. Q. Is your new theory quasi classical? Is it local, causal, linear? You rightly stress experimental verification, but with respect I think there is room to start from other starting points - create speculative purely speculative models that will (may) eventually replicate quantitative results. 
 
BTW I totally agree with the view expressed here about maths' capacity to be used as a sort of brain candy. Here is my essay about why math is very effective in physics:

Chandra: how would your tension field explain the acceleration of the expansion of the universe? (I need to read your papers ).
In my model the vacuume nodes aligned in polarity repel each other.

Cheers and best wishes

My attack thereon is based on the seldom explicitely stated but always implied notion that if Bell's so-called theorem is correct, then the QM correations cannot be obtained from classical physics phenomena.  In reverse, if these "QM" correlations can be obtained from a fully classical simulation of the optics experiments held to prove Bell's ideas and entnglement mytholgy, then this simulation is a counterexample to the Bell-story proving it wrong.  In fact, however, in the literature there are circa 20 suggested examples of fully classical simulations of classical phenomena that obtain exactly the "QM" correations; i.e., the Bell "theroem" is proved wrong.  In various papers over the last 20 years I myself have shown fully classical computations for most of the key Bell-proof experiments.  At the last SPIE conference I presented a simulation of a detection event-by-event simulation that also obtains the "QM" correlations. The code for this simulation is in #44 on www.nonloco-physics.0catch.com.  for the convenience of those who doubt this result.  To prove me wrong they need only find an error in that (published!) code. My final word: "entanglement" is nothing but ordinary correlation from a prior common cause.  It has NOTHING to do with QM even (see: #45).

I gather, he would agree that the pattern does not change for the moving observer and conclude that, that fact is symptomatic of inconsistency in the conventional understanding of deB waves.

The RELEVANT velocity is the relative velocity between the particle and the slit; not that between the observer-particle or observer-slit.   An observer will see all kinds of distortions of the events, starting with simple persepctive due to being at some distance from the slit and its registration screen.  In additon this observer will see those deB waves affecting the particle (NOT from the particle, nor from the slit, but from the universal background there before either the particle or slit came into being)  as perspectively-relativistically distorted (twin-clock type distortion).  BUT, the observer will still see the same over-all background because the totality of background signals (not just those to which this particle is tuned), i.e., its spectral energy density, is itself Lorentz invariant.  That is, the observer's  motion does not  enable it to empirically distinguish between the background in the various frames, nor does the background engender friction forces.

But now there is an observer also moving at 0.1 c parallel to the beam of electrons. In his frame the electrons have momentum=0 and so wavelength=infinite. That means: No interference pattern. But there is in fact a pattern which does not disappear just because there is another observer. And the moving observer will see the pattern. - This is a falsification of de Broglie's rule. What else?

The deB. wave is not a feature of a particle in its own frame, but a feature of the interaction of such a particle with at least one other particle in another frame.  When the two frames are moving with respect to each other, then the features of the interaction cannot be Lorentz invariants.  When one particle is interacting with another particle (or ensemble---slit say) the relevant physics is determined by the deB wave in that sitation, whatever it looks like to an observer in a third frame with yet different relative velocities.  It is a perspective effect: a tree is the same ontological size in fact no matter how small it appears to distant observers.  Observed diminished size(s) cannot be "invriant."  Appearances =/= ,,so sein''.

So also the process at the double slit. But the rule given by de Broglie looks correct in only one frame, that is the frame where the double slit is at rest. For an observer in motion the diffraction pattern looks very similar as for the observer at rest, but for the observer in motion the results according to de Broglie are completely different, because the momentum of the particle is different in a wide range in the frame of a moving observer and so is the wavelength assigned to the particle.

As I, along with most others, see it, there is no conflict with experiment, but a less than fully transparent explantion for experimental observations (particle beam diffrction) otherwise unexplained.  At the time of writing, and nowadays too (although I'd to think that my paper rationalizes DeB's story) it was the most widely accepted story for this phenomna.

With reference to the de Broglie wave, I think, is the situation much simpler on the level of conservative knowledge. De Broglie has misunderstood relativity (particularly dilation) and so seen a conflict which does in fact not exist. He has solved the conflict by inventing an additional "fictitious" wave which has no other foundation in physics, and also his "theorem of harmonic phases" which as well is an invention without need. And his result is in conflict with the experiment if we ask for Lorentz invariance or even for Galilean invariance. -  If we follow the basic idea of de Broglie by, however, avoiding his logical error about relativity, we come easily to a description of matter waves without logical conflicts. This does not need new philosophy or other effort at this level.

Nonetheless, his machinations, although verbalized, in the true tradtion of quantum mechanics, mysteriously, can be reinterpreted (i.e., alternate verbage found without changing any of the math) so as to tell a fully, if (somewhat) hetrodoxical, story.  See #11 on www.Nonloco-Physics.0catch.com.

The only real physical part is an "interaction", which mnight as well be thought of an absract string between charges.  Also, neutrons have electric multipole moments; i.e., they are totally neutral but not charge-free.

The particle oscillates with the frequency of the particle's Zitterbewegung (which background fields do you have in mind? De Brogie does not mention them). This oscillation is in no contradiction with this wavelength as the phase speed is also infinite. For the imagination, the latter means that all points of that wave oscillate with the same phase at any point.

An E&M field would anyway have no effect in the case of neutron scattering for which the same de Broglie formalism is used. And into which frame do you see the wave Lorentz-transformed?
> 
> So, an electron in his frame has an infinite wavelength and in his frame has the double slit moving towards the particle. How can an interference at the slits occur? No interference can happen under these conditions. But, as I have explained in the paper, the normal wave which accompanies the electron by normal rules (i.e. phase speed = c) will have an interference with its own reflection, which has then a wavelength which fits to the expectation of de Broglie. But that is a very local event (in a range of approx. 10^-12 m for the electron) and it is not at all a property of the electron as de Broglie has thought.

The deB' wave length is infinite in the particles frame: it is the standing wave formed by the inpinging background waves having a freq. = the particle's Zitterbewegung.  If these TWO waves are each Lorentz x-formed to another frame and added there, they exhibit exactly the DeB' modulation wavelength proportional to the particle's momentum.  The only mysterious feature then is that the proportionality is to the CNONICAL momentum, i.e., including the vector potential of whatever exterior E&M interactions are in-coming.  Nevertheless, everything works our without contradiction.  A particle oscillates in place at its Zitter freq. while the Zitter signals are modulated by the DeB' wavelength as they move through slits, say.
