[General] New paper: Something is Rotten in the State of QED

[Roychoudhuri, Chandra]

Hello everybody!
I hope all of you are safe and well.
Please, take all possible precautions to stay away from COVID-19. It is a ruthless virus, especially, if the body is compromised due to some other ailments.

Fortunately, the real death rate is a tiny tiny fraction of one percent when you consider the global population to be over 7 Billion. Even the recovery rate is hovering around 96%, or better, for those who have been hospitalized with COVID-19.

So relax, rest, exercise (especially, breathing exercises) and enjoy good food. Intellectual exercise is also an important component of maintaining good health.

Thank you Viv, Oliver and everybody else for keeping up the discussions on the fact that the foundational physics-thinking has to be re-visited and re-structured from the very beginning.

Sincerely,
Chandra.

Dear Oliver,

Thank you for your report. I share your sentiments and express my displeasure in the following way. "QED seems very good in obtaining an expression for the anomalous magnetic moment of an electron, that differs from the actual by about 1%, yet in another field it requires the universe to have an energy density of ≈ 10^120 higher than is measured". I guess that is one of "The problem of infinities”. I am of the opinion that it is better to have a theory that explains the 10^-10 J/m^3 density of the universe and differs by about 1% for the observed value of the electron’s magnetic moment, than to have something that differs by 10^120 but accurately explains an error of ≈ 1%

Cheers,

Vivian Robinson

Dear fellow scientist,

I send you this mail because you have been skeptical about Foundations of Physics. I think that this new paper will be of your interest. Feel free to share it with your colleagues or publish it on the web. I consider it important that this paper serves to open a public debate on this subject.

Abstract
"Quantum electrodynamics (QED) is considered the most accurate theory in the history of science. However, this precision is based on a single experimental value: the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron (g-factor). An examination of QED history reveals that this value was obtained using illegitimate mathematical traps, manipulations and tricks. These traps included the fraud of Kroll & Karplus, who acknowledged that they lied in their presentation of the most relevant calculation in QED history. As we will demonstrate in this paper, the Kroll & Karplus scandal was not a unique event. Instead, the scandal represented the fraudulent manner in which physics has been conducted from the creation of QED through today."  (12 pag.)
