Thank you for viewing this video on Sky Scholar! This channel is dedicated to new ideas about the nature of the sun, the stars, thermodynamics, and the microwave background. We will discuss all things astronomy, physics, chemistry, and imaging related! We hope that the combination of facts and special effects will aid in learning even the toughest concepts in astronomy. If you enjoyed this video, please subscribe.

Pierre-Marie Robitaille, Ph.D., was a professor of Radiology at The Ohio State University from 1989-2019, and also held an appointment in the Chemical Physics Program. In 1998, he led the design and assembly of the world’s first Ultra High Field MRI System. Readings from this equipment brought into question fundamental aspects of modern thermal physics, such as Kirchhoff’s Law of thermal emission.

We should ask, Not a Professor Dave, and whatever he says, It's the Opposite! 😂
Love Your Work Dr. Robitaille!
Many Many Thanks

[jamesa]

Dr. Robitaile shows the way to understand the new complexities governing star formation. It is breath taking.

[kimberleebrackley]

Always a pleasure, Dr.Robitaille. Stay strong, sir, science needs you:)

[sadist]

Happy New Year (Dr. R) and everyone else.
I hope you all get what you wish for in the coming year.

Dr. Robitaille: The Condensed Matter star does start as Metallic Hydrogen but rather as an natural agglomeration of solid heavy dense elements: The naturally rocky planet-like body would be the ideal natural condensation point to grow by gathering all matter including Hydrogen and Helium from the surrounding space and gas clouds (Helium would also be present from natural radioactive decay of heavier isotopes). Similarly, Jupiter or Saturn is not a gaseous giant and their cores are surely a condensed matter, very likely a rocky Earth-like body. Congratulations on your work! I would be happy to hear your comments. Perhaps one day, Earth will become a Star. Regards, Tomasz Wojcik.

[mdeasy]

Nicely explained Dr. Robitaille! I'm definitely in the condensed matter star camp with you!! Happy new year!!

[gratefulprepsnj]

Amazing! I love to learn new things like this. Why is it that mainstream “experts” in so many fields like astronomy, medicine geology and archaeology have it all so wrong? Thanks Dr R!

[Socrates-tidh]

Thank You for this presentation. It gives me much to consider.

Happy New Year

The z-pinch theory is more convicing to me, and the "stars on a string" observation supports that.

[summerbrooks]

This hot speech remains one of your best. Common sense evades the Standard Model folks.

Question: where do the condensation reactions take place on the sun from, say, the tachocline layer to the chromosphere or photosphere?

[tbyzer]

The filamentary nature of nebulae indicates ionization and the formation of plasma filaments.
Plasma filaments can collapse matter in Marklund convection.

[captainsensible]

Happy New Year by the way, love your channel.

crushed it again dr. robitaille. truly fascinating why a field like physics is able to attract people very skilled at absorbing complex theory, manipulating and regurgitating theory taught in advanced courses but are unable to detect errors which any 6 year old who has ever popped a balloon finds obvious. gases without a barrier have no fixed volume. i guess they are all afraid to challenge any idea once it appears in a textbook. most are so involved in building a career that they learn challenging authority is not welcomed and does not lead to advancement, esp if your superiors in a department are advocates of the theory being challenged.

i see it as an example of regression to the mean. while we have more 'astrophysicists/astronomers' alive today than ever before, by several orders of magnitude probably, the average intellectual level of these professionals has dropped closer to the mean level of the population. i am surmising that in the past, before mass professionalization, physics was dominated by exceptional individuals with a strong interest in understqanding how the world worked, rather than by those looking for an income and an interesting job.

so we end up with a class of professionals of ordinary intelligence and aptitude who end up dominating the field. those types are not very creative and are unabe to challenge accepted wisdom, and they automatically outcast the exceptional individuals who do so. hence progress stagnates and the job of building epicycles continues.

this is what happens when physics follows Feynmann's mantra 'shut up and calculate' as aresponse to anyone questioning renormalization in quqntum electrodynamics (the arbitrary dropping of annoying infinities in your calculations).

seems many areas of science suffer from this problem.

Is magnetic z-pinch the engine for condensation

[allanroser]

Thanks Dr Robataille and all best for the New Year... I guess now Molecular Clouds that are not expanding are in fact half formed Stars!

[chakerhaddad]

Joyeux Nouvel An Dr. Robitaille. Enlightening channel with luminous videos. Thank you so much!

[russellcollins]

I'm glad alternate theories are gaining traction in the field of astrophysics. Thank you for giving us another excellent presentation!

[samtigernotiger]

Perhaps it would make sense to define the term 'gravitational bound' more precisely. According to elementary physics, a large cold cloud of an ideal gas in empty space is bound in a certain way by its own gravity. In order to move far away from the cloud, an ideal gas particle would have to reach the escape velocity of the total mass. This is not possible in a cold gas with a large total mass according to the statistical velocity distribution. The gas particles are bound to a certain extent by gravity and cannot be distributed throughout the entire space.

[whogivesacrapaboutastupidc]

Seems to me like you're spot-on. I have no education in physics, but dark matter seems to be too darn convenient and dumb to be taken seriously.

[keithnorris]

Thank you Dr Robitaille I was hoping that you would provide information concerning the stars in the cosmos and it`s great to have such an early start to 2024. I hope more will follow soon and that science will move forward to a better understanding of the nature of the cosmos.
