Exploring Coherent Neutrino Scattering and a Unified Field Theory

In summary, coherent neutrino scattering is a phenomenon in which neutrinos interact with the nucleus of an atom, resulting in a coherent scattering pattern that can be measured. This process provides valuable information about the properties of neutrinos and the structure of the nucleus. The study of coherent neutrino scattering is an important area of research in the field of particle physics, as it can potentially lead to a better understanding of the fundamental forces of nature and the development of a unified field theory. By studying this phenomenon, scientists hope to unlock the secrets of the universe and gain a deeper understanding of the fundamental building blocks of matter.

Hi all. I wander here from the Cosmoquest Forum, where I posted for years as trinitree88...usually signing my stuff as "pete"...a nickname from my last name which is George Peterson. I am a photographic chemist by trade having worked for ITEK Corporation on high resolution aerial duplicating films, and in X-ray solution service for Solutek Corporation . Mostly, I've taught physics, and chemistry in secondary schools around Boston.

I have a big interest in particle physics, astronomy and high energy physics, and anything that makes an image, or sets off a detector. Years ago, I took a stab at writing a simple unified field theory based on Howard Georgi's 1981 article in Scientific American, and submitted it to the Gravity research Foundation for their writing competition, receiving an Honorable Mention. Recent developments in particle physics, particularly the COHERENT experiment at the SNS in Oak Ridge, lead me to believe my original idea was right, but the mechanism was not forward scattering, but a combination of coherent and incoherent elastic and inelastic neutrino scattering. Stating so led to Moderators closing my thread at Cosmoquest, where I was not allowed to defend each point with peer-reviewed journal articles. I'll take it from there to here, and see what happens.

It appears the coherent neutrino scattering cross-sections are six orders of magnitude larger than forward scattering from the eighties (Kate Scholberg, MIT Physics Colloquiem talk last April), and my claim of coincidences is true, between the g-wave bar detectors at Rome and Maryland, and the Baksan, IMB, and Kamiokande neutrino detectors at 6.7 sigma. For particulars check out my post in Cosmoquest Forum under Science and Technology as "The Unified Field Theory" , all the relevant URL's are there and I'll be happy to elaborate them here...and yup, my talk at The Olney Science Center at Harvard University on Gamma Ray Bursts, May 1994...had Matt Damon and Ben Affleck sitting in the back row...a year after my standing ovation at Williams College for the Joint AAPT/APS MEETING where I changed the principle of equivalence. About 1700 physicists...6.7 sigma ...thats a real phenomenon. pete
