So Bob subscribes to relativity, (like you?)

Bob said there's no such thing as gravitons.

As for Bob's claim about gravity and the strong force evidence has emerged that relates QM gravitons to gluons which is the carrier of the strong force. The work recieved the Sakurai prize for theoretical physics.

Not that I believe everything sight unseen, but whoever said in the quoted critique, that element 115 is always unstable doesn't know science very well. Sure, here on earth, when synthesizing 115, only the first beginning isotopes will be there because of the neutron number. And no science exists here yet to add neutrons to an isotope, and,or, not in the amounts needed to make even a tiny speck of the material...
If the neutron numbers are increased through a much more efficient mechanism like a big star, then it would be able to make super-heavy elements with stable isotopes. 115 and other elements yet unknown as well. It has already been predicted for there to be islands of stability within radioactive elements by increasing the number of neutrons, to where that island of stability is within the isotopic range of an element.. If this same element was being produced by a star somewhere where that star was much denser and larger than our own star, it could easily produce stable isotopes..
Our own star SOL fizzles out at Uranium..
Also along those lines if it is something that lives as long as I guess what you are saying, it's nothing we would see. We see the decay of these elements through their radioactive decay. And we can see them because they have such short life times, such short half lives. So during the course of an experiment, we expect a decay to occur. If they weren't radioactive and were stable, we would never see them. We only see the energy that is given off in their decay.
to be absolutely clear; the physicist also said that it is unlikely at the energies and ion weights and collision targets they used they could have added the additional neutrons to make potentially stable isotopes. they probably need about 11 or 12 more neutrons without busting up the target. I just want to point out that if they had managed it they would not know it.

Good points every one of them, I hadn't thought about their equipment not detecting stable particles, but I did think about where in the isotopic range they might need to be to even find stability, and I always pictured that up there a ways, perhaps much further than what they might even attempt to even find, but I'm of the opinion some new discovery might give insight into the design of better ways to look into those things.. That could be already done in some black budget lab somewhere, but it's hard to know. (Or talk about even if I do know).
When i have more money to blow and more room to tinker i may just try some bismuth experiments.

Not too long ago I found a web site that supplies packs of rare earth metals which also had little ingots and chips of bismuth available, and the bismuth was really inexpensive. Not that I have time to play with bismuth, but maybe after I read that book you mentioned?
Just for curiosity's sake I'll be checking it out..
Thanks!
I think this is something i read but am not sure due to the passage of time...

Cool stuff there, yeah I remember when the Darmstadt Germany physicists team first found it, and before that I had read a paper on super heavy elements from their native stars being naturally occurring in their native solar systems, when those stars are super giants, or giants which enables further self synthesis of light elements to the heavy ones or maximum ones based on the the star's properties that's required to keep the process going. Obviously, someone from elsewhere has discovered the material and other elements as naturally belonging to their solar systems which have a denser, larger star than ours.
This was what I read about it, and they were theorizing about those islands of stability and how stars would be doing all the work they are trying to duplicate, which, seems like it would be a daunting task just like the difficulties they are having using technology, and the time a particle accelerator takes to make a few atoms of element material.
I've talked to several physicists at a local university who all have studied these theory's and papers about star fusion processes and yet unknown super heavy elements that might have these islands of stability.
Very thought provoking stuff in any case..
So we've got one guy who is probably not a doctor but claiming to be a doctor vouching for another guy who is also lying about his credentials. Brilliant!

Well, if someone can officially come forward and say; "Yes, Lazar was there, then.", that leads to why are there no records of Lazar if he was only working on normal stuff. I mean, an institution can loose documents, but lots of institutions loosing pertinent info on one person, at the same time? hmm.
Also, why now?

Just curious how more hearsay means anything?
Not knocking the OP. I hope it's true. But right now all it is, is a guy saying he talked to a guy who says he remembers Bob.
Doesn't really amount to much of anything. The guy could've had the conversation with a donut and it would carry the same weight.
Hopefully the good doctor decides to come forward himself. Sadly, though, I'm not holding much hope out.
