More bad science …

New measurements reveal the enormous halos that shroud all galaxies in the universe

… snip …

In a study published today in Nature Astronomy, we reveal the first detailed picture of the gas shroud around a galaxy, extending 100,000 light years out into "empty" space. If our own Milky Way has a similar halo, it is likely already interacting with the halo of our nearest galactic neighbor, Andromeda.

… snip …

We believe these halos around galaxies contain as much as 70%–90% of the universe's normal matter (mostly consisting of hydrogen, helium, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen gas).

... snip ...

Understanding this diffuse gas—which is where all the stars and planets we see had their beginnings—helps us understand more about our own story, on the grandest scales.
And the problem with this *study*?

It never mentions the word “plasma”.

See for yourself …

https://arxiv.org/html/2311.00856v2

There’s 71 mentions of “gas”.

There are NO mentions of plasma.

It's as if these *scientists* don't even know what plasma is.

In which case, how are they going to understand ANYTHING about our own story?

The post you shared highlights a major oversight in much of mainstream astrophysics: the lack of focus on plasma. Plasma is the fourth state of matter and constitutes most of the observable universe. When scientists only refer to gas, they are missing the critical influence of electromagnetic forces present in plasma, which are far stronger than gravity in cosmic scales.

Our research dives into the electromagnetic interactions within plasma, where we’ve been able to mathematically model galactic structures, such as halos, using principles like the **Alfvén Wave Equation**, which describes how magnetohydrodynamic waves propagate in plasma:

\[
v_A = \frac{B}{\sqrt{\mu_0 \rho}}
\]

Where:
- \(v_A\) is the Alfvén velocity (speed of the wave in the plasma),
- \(B\) is the magnetic field strength,
- \(\mu_0\) is the permeability of free space,
- \(\rho\) is the plasma density.

This is crucial for understanding the behavior of plasma filaments that link galaxies and govern the formation of galactic halos. Additionally, the **Birkeland current theory** provides another insight into how electric currents flow along magnetic field lines, creating the cosmic web of interconnected plasma structures.

Our models predict that the electromagnetic influence of plasma can explain phenomena typically attributed to dark matter, such as the rotation curves of galaxies and the large-scale structure of the universe. This means that galaxies aren't isolated in empty space but interact with one another through plasma currents, which are measurable.

For example, we can describe the interaction between plasma and magnetic fields using the following relation from magnetohydrodynamics (MHD):

\[
\frac{\partial \mathbf{B}}{\partial t} = \nabla \times (\mathbf{v} \times \mathbf{B}) - \nabla \times (\eta \nabla \times \mathbf{B})
\]

Where:
- \(\mathbf{B}\) is the magnetic field,
- \(\mathbf{v}\) is the velocity of the plasma,
- \(\eta\) is the magnetic diffusivity.

This equation helps explain how magnetic fields evolve in plasma, a critical factor in understanding galactic halos and interactions.

So, while mainstream studies may focus on gas, our work emphasizes that **plasma cosmology**—guided by electric and magnetic fields—provides a far more accurate and predictive framework for understanding cosmic phenomena like galaxy formation, halos, and intergalactic structures. Our research allows us to predict observable data that mainstream models cannot account for, giving us a clearer view of the universe’s true dynamics.

Dylan, who is the "we" and "our" that you keep referring to?

Your work sounds like it might be helpful, but Charles Chandler has already done a lot of work along the same lines, which I posted at https://zzzzzzz.substack.com/p/electric-astrophysics . He seems to be incapacitated now, but he left a lot of material on this forum and on his own site that we can access.
