What is a neutron star?
Astronomers tell us that these tiny yet massively dense objects
formed by the gravitational collapse from the remnants of a massive star that exploded.
According to NASA, a neutron star is about 20 km in diameter,
and has the mass of about 1.4 times that of our Sun.
This means that the neutron star is so dense that on Earth,
one teaspoonful would weigh a billion tons!
The theoretical neutron star was invented to try to explain
highly intense bursts of energy from tiny regions of space.
But no one has ever seen a neutron star, scientists infer the object existence
when interpreting energetic emissions in deep space.
Indeed according to a recent paper in the journal Nature,
a so-called neutron star has been discovered
that defies understanding of accepted physics.
In the nearby galaxy M82, scientists have observed ultra-luminous X-ray pulses
from what they believe is a binary system between the star
and a pulsar or rotating neutron star.
However, this so-called pulsar shines impossible brightly
with the intensity of 10 million suns.
In a recent Nature Podcast,
researcher Janet C. Gladstone said of this discovery:
"The original theory that put this limit on how bright these things should be is about 100 times fainter than this object."
This was observed with NASA's NuSTAR it is a space X-ray telescope
that was actually put in place exactly to survey
this kind of ultra-luminous X-rays events.
Now, what was observed was a pulsar thought to be a rotating neutron star
that is emitting energies in the ultra-luminous X-ray range.
Now, this is a real problem.
It has been held that super-massive black holes are required
to power X-rays sources, at this level of energies
and this pulsar is about 10 times powerful than any know pulsar.
So, something was obviously wrong with the current theory
and that is the point that the author has made.
The real issue is that mainstream astrophysics
has a gravity dominated view of the universe.
Everything is powered by gravity,
so when an ultra-luminous X-rays source is observed the first question is:
Where is the energy coming from to power it?
Well, since gravity is the only tool in the toolbox
the idea of an accretion disk was evolved where
a super-massive black hole is pulling matter from a companion star
This matter forms a very thin accretion disk around the black hole
The angular momentum of the in-falling matter
is converted to heat and then super heated gas,
this is in the range of millions Kelvin emits high-energy X-rays.
Let's be clear, the astro-images that we get are X-ray point sources
We don't see accretion disks or black holes or black holes binaries
What we see are highly energetic points of X-rays,
points sources of X-rays, X-rays that flicker and pulse.
But do you need exotic super dense masses to get X-rays at this high energies?
Well, actually no.
Lightning is a very good example of natural phenomenon that emits X-rays
and actually gamma rays as well, at very high energies.
And let us look at the X-ray machines, X-rays are emitted from X-ray tubes
basically a vacuum tube where a cathode emits electrons which impact the anode.
The X-ray spectrum and energy dependent on what is used as the anode
And the kind of accelerating voltage you have for the vacuum tube.
I mean, we found this all in the late 1800's
So, you don't really need an exotic super-massive body and super heated gas to get X-rays.
And it's a good thing too, because imagine how big an X-ray machine would have to be
if gravity were the only power source that we had with black holes and super heated gases.
Astrophysicists are finding all kinds of stars that shouldn't exist,
according to the standard theory.
But even so, there is no hint that the standard models of stars are under any threat.
Now we have a report of a pulsating dead star
beaming with the energy of about 10 million suns.
So, one might think it's back to the drawing board.
But how badly does a theory have to fail
before you wipe the board clean and start again?
How can a dead star beam far more energy than 10 million live ones?
The reason for calling a star "dead"
is that it has been found to pulsate every 1.37 Seconds
which characterizes a supposed neutron star, and it is assumed that only a very small
rapidly rotating object acting some- how as a lighthouse could do that.
Also, say astrophysicists who adopt a simple mechanical view of pulsars.
But this requires then to stuff more than 1.5 times the mass of the sun
into a sphere of only 10 km radius.
As usual, when astrophysicists run into difficulties
they call on particles physicists to get them out of it.
And as usual, particle physicists use it as an excuse for
inventing strange unseeing states of matter or dark forces.
In the case of pulsars, we are told that the atoms are squeezed so intensely
in the imagined death throats of a large star that electrons
combine with protons in the nucleus of each atom to form a neutron star.
This is another one of those astrophysical theories
that can’t be tested in the laboratory
Where neutrons only seem to exist stably for more than a few minutes
inside an atomic nucleus in the presence of protons.
However, two dinosaurs unnoticed in Astrophysics Lab
are our total ignorance of the cause of gravity
And their unshakeable belief that stars are internally powered.
Newton wisely admitted that he did not understand gravity
And Einstein merely described it with a non-physical geometry.
But a moment of reflection shows that the idea of
super condensed matter in any form is nonsense.
Because it is asking the force of gravity to overcome the electrical force
Which can be up 1,000 billion billion billion billion times stronger than gravity.
Infrared images show that stars are born
nongravitationally along glowing current filaments.
This results in stars with cool cores of heavy elements
that can not initiate a thermonuclear fusion.
And in the star's gravitational field, the heavy nucleus of each atom
will be drawn towards the center of gravity of the star or planet.
That means each atom will become football shaped,
With the inner end positive and the outer end negatively charged.
These tiny atomic electric dipoles will daisy chain like magnets and set up a
repulsive electric field inside the star which offsets gravitational compression.
So, black holes and neutron stars do not exist.
So, what is the electric universe answer to the discovery of an object that
pulsates and shines about 100 times brighter than theory suggest?
It has been shown that the complex structure of stellar pulses can be explained
by repeated short circuits in the magnetospheric circuit of a normal star.
There is no need for a fanciful whirling neutron star .
It's simple electrical engineering one-o-one.
A relaxation oscillator effect in the star atmosphere.
The ultra luminosity of a star or galactic object can be attributed to 2 factors.
First, is a misinterpretation of redshift,
which can place the star much further away than it actually is.
If the star is much closer, the calculated energy output may be grossly overestimated.
The second, is the ability for plasma to store phenomenal amounts of
electromagnetic energy in a very tiny volume known as a plasmoid.
Simple application then, of E = MC² shows that a plasmoid can account
for the apparent concentration of mass in a small volume.
No black holes or neutron stars are necessary.
What's more, plasmoids release particles and energy periodically in jets
as shown by active galactic nuclei.
That suggests that we are looking down the narrow beam of a stellar plasmoid
that is shining in our direction with equivalent energy of 10 million suns.
As long as gravity is held as the only energy source
for these cosmological phenomena the mainstream astrophysicist
will continue to run into the kind of issues that they found in the pulsar.
That leads me to kind of wonder where mainstream theory would be now
if this kinds of X-ray gamma rays and radio observations
have been available in the late 1800's or around 1900.
Available, for example, for people like Faraday, or Maxwell,
or plasma science pioneers as Birkeland.
Maybe now pulsars may be modeled as oscillating circuits
and the energy that they pulse and the frequency would dependent
on the acceleration voltage of the electric field
and other characteristics of the electrical circuit.
We know there are electric currents in space carried by Birkeland filaments
These current-carrying filaments have been directly observed between the Sun
and the Earth and for example between Jupiter and Io.
We see filaments twisting and extending thousands of light years wherever you look.
More importantly, we see electromagnetic phenomena
pulsing and flickering X-rays, gamma rays and plasma glowing radio.
Things that are no more exotic than lightning or electric circuits
that we've been building in lab in the last 100 years or so.
