Findings [web]
- J. Marsen, "The Local-Ether Model and Quantum Electromagnetics Theory of Prof. Ching-Chuan Su", viXra:2105.0110 v1 (19 May 2021), 20 pp. stated (8-page PDF downloaded: research/files/vixra/2105.0110v1-Marsen.pdf). Abstract: written "to promote the work of the late Prof. Ching-Chuan Su"; Su published the series "between 2000 and 2006". It lists Su's papers with abstracts and Wayback links. - [read: Marsen 2021, text near line 742] "Prof. Su passed away in approximately 2007 and a website he created (http://qem.ee.nthu.edu.tw) ... have been removed. However, most of the website can be accessed from the 'Wayback Machine'." - [read] "In 2006, Prof. Su compiled the content of most of his papers into his magnum opus", quoting the book's own words that it aims to make "the formulations more rigorous and compact". Book: NTHU Press, Taiwan, 2008; e-book at HyRead (https://ebook.hyread.com.tw/bookDetail.jsp?id=19899). - Marsen is a promoter of Su's work (and author of his own "Tron Theory"); his description is an advocate's characterisation.
- J. Marsen, "A Michelson-Morley Type Experiment Should be Performed in Low Earth Orbit and Interplanetary Space", viXra:1906.0336 (June 2019; presented to the John Chappell Natural Philosophy Society per ResearchGate). Downloaded: research/files/vixra/1906.0336v1.pdf. - [read] Says the local-ether idea was "proposed by the late Prof. Petr Beckmann in 1986 and independently developed by late Prof. Ching-Chuan Su in 2000". - [read] Predicts that a Michelson-Morley experiment in low Earth orbit would see the orbital speed relative to the ECI frame (about 7.6 km/s at 500 km), and in interplanetary space about 30 km/s, whereas relativity predicts null. - [read] On Brillet and Hall (1979): "detected a signal consistent with the Earth's rotation velocity that varied at twice the rotation rate of the base of the interferometer (2ωR) but it was dismissed as 'spurious' and was averaged out of the results." This is Marsen's reading; it matches Su's own 62 Hz prediction vs the reported ~34 Hz residual (claims.md claim 5). Brillet and Hall's paper itself not yet obtained. - The viXra comment section (Disqus) was not read.
Bearing
- Claim 5: an advocate's proposal of a decisive test (orbital and interplanetary Michelson-Morley) and an advocate's reading of the Brillet-Hall residual as a possible positive signal.
- Historical record: approximate date of death (c.2007) and removal of the website; the record of Su's work ends in 2006.
