Incompatibility of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics

Beyond the boundaries of established science an avalanche of exotic ideas compete for our attention. Experts tell us that these ideas should not be permitted to take up the time of working scientists, and for the most part they are surely correct. But what about the gems in the rubble pile? By what ground-rules might we bring extraordinary new possibilities to light?

Incompatibility of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics

Post by KickLaBuka » Tue Jul 07, 2009 12:24 pm

A reasonable person made a request from a mainstream group, and this was their reply (in quotes). My response to the standard model is also written. I share this in MAD IDEAS for humor. Sorry to be retroactive, but I had to say something.
Stephen Hawking gave us Hawking radiation that incorporates the mathematics of both General Relativity and Quantum field theory near the event horizon...
Mathematics.

and it makes sense. However, as you approach the singularity the maths become rather absurd.
This is a contradiction.

General relativity actually predicts its own failure upon reaching the singularity.
So then it has to go. Plain and simple.

I don't believe quantum theories have much to say about a singularity either.
So Quantum Mechanics can't handle the center of a black hole either. A singularity is impossible. Flat.

Thus the continuing research into quantum gravity.
Thus? How could that possibly be a good conclusion?

Given the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle's statement on defining both the velocity and location of a particle, determining the gravitation field seems rather impossible.
you burned yourself here.

Fortunately, the gravitational field is so small, it can simply be ignored.
You cannot pick and choose what to ignore.

The standard model is hog wash. Both have to go by the wayside for a more fundamental approach, with new mathematics.
