Yes, that is a method for detecting neutrinos. Bravo. I'll touch on the reactor bit in the next quote.urtalkinstupid said:It has already been clarified that neutrons do act via weak forces, but they are also able to interact with electrons. This interaction with electrons allows one method of detecting neutrinos.
I'll explain Mercury's orbit when I get home. Right now, I'm at work, and I'm fixing to get off. So, if you can wait about 20 mins, I will explain.
We know neutrinos interact with matter, we all agree on that. It's the rate at which neutrinos react with matter that we can not reach an accordance on.
It is well known that all stars go through fusion reactions. Noting the sun as a huge hydrogen bomb, is not necessarily the right terms. All stars go through fusion processes which yields neutrinos and EM. What holds this star together? The stars also absorbs, but emission takes over absorption. Although it emitts many neutrinos, it also takes in some. This absorption of neutrinos is what counts for the stars holding together, just as the current model of gravity is used to hold the star together by counter-acting the emitted radiation.
Reactors do not have the power of the sun to produce neutrinos. The force is very subtle and unoticeable. I'm probably wronghere, but I'll look into it. That's just what I think.
And you are still wrong about absorption/emission. If the sun were to absorp neutrinos such that it wouldn't explode, then that means all neutrinos frome very direction will push with enough force to keep the sun together. That means we would be crushed. Plus, what happens to all these neutrinos that are converging to the center of mass of the sun? They can't go through one another. Indeed, if you say neutrinos are pushing on any sphereical object from all directions, then it stands to reason every point in spacetime is the center of a neutrino vortex. Another good question for you is: How fast does gravity travel in this idea?
urtalkinstupid said:Gladd we reached an agreement that they DO interact. Don't know why you people tried to tell me they DIDN'T at first.
Most of the power associated with nuclear reactors are that of free neutrons. These neutrons are radioactive and can pierce through stuff. Neutrinos are not as abundant. Especially in an H-Bomb, because that bomb uses both fusion and fission to power it. Well, I take that back. I thought fission only produced neutrons from heavy elements? I don't know. Can someone run clarity on that?
Yea, Newton started out as a mathematician and became a physicists. Where are you going with this?
What does the use of neutrons have to do with anything? Neutrinos are a byproduct of nuclear reactions. Of course a standard fission reactor won't produce the same amount of neutrinos as the sun (sun huge, reactor small), but nonetheless, a force repelling people from reactors via neutrinos should be easily measured if neutrinos are to be the source of gravity.
As for Newton, that was way back in the day before physics was really a well defined subject in its own right. The main point of the statement is though, what works in math is NOT always mirrored in reality. I can write equations governing the area of a 50 dimensional sphere. That doesn't mean 50 dimensional spheres are lurking about.
I did follow the link. It was utter bull****. Why? Neutrinos and photons do not interact that way. Neutrinos interact SOLELY via the weak force and gravity (though with such a very very small mass, their gravity on an individual basis is very small, and by gravity I'm referring to the actual theory of gravity). They do not see the electromagnetic nor strong force. This means photons cannot influence neutrinos and vice versa. Sure when a neutrino interacts with a particle via the weak force a photon may be emitted somewhere down the line, but that is from the various processes that go on in the interaction. As for this idea being so simple, it is simple. And like most simple concepts that aren't thought through, full of holes (see my vortex statement above).beatrix kiddo said:u can't follow directions.. i said click the link that describes gravity bending light... but it's ok.. ur new on our thread so i'll take it easy on u and i'll explain to u myself, why neutrinos bend light.
ok. let's say we have the Earth and a quasar. inbetween the Earth and the quasar is a star. the star bends light coming from behind it outwards because the neutrinos are exerting a slight pressure on the photons coming from the quasar... also, there are neutrinos coming in towards the star (though not as abundantly) to keep the photons from the quasar from going out of whack! it's so simple it must be TRUE!
As for entropy, he's right on. You should listen to him.
