In science, people organize the perception of reality using various theoretical concepts.
One of such concepts is e.g. the electromagnetic field, which very successfully
explains some class of perceived phenomena. The main people behind this concept
are Faraday and Maxwell. Apart from explaining and predicting a variety of phenomena,
the concept of electromagnetic field has produced enormous variety of practical applications.
Another concept with is that of the gravity field. It again explains a variety of phenomena,
different* from those explained by electromagnetuic field. the main people behind this concept
are Newton and Einstein.
Then a new concept in fundamental physics appeared -- that of a torsion field, which was supposed
to be a completely new, previously unknown type of field. In fact this type of field had been studied by
Einstein (seeking to unify electromagnetic and gravitational fields) and Cartan to name the biggest.
Unfortunately, the concept of the torsion field has not been successful as it has been impossible to proveably correlate
this theoretical concept with any observable phenomenon and it has been abandoned via Occam razor-type of reasoning...until
quite recently when two self-proclaimed(?) Russian academics Akimov and Shipov (and a group of
people around them) claimed to have theoretically generalized the concept of the torsion field and has even found
experimental evidence (=correlation between the theory and observations). Unfortunately nobody has been able
neither to repeat their calculations nor experiments and they've been dubbed scammers and their "science" a fraud.
This however has not stopped the torsion field followers
from going on and developing "applications" for their concept spanning an enormous range of phenomena (in an attempt to repeat
and surpass the success of the concept of electromagnetic field):
lowering copper conductivity, constructing flying saucers-type propulsions, telephaty, cancer healing, etc, etc. Again, unfortunately nobody
has been able to objectively confirm the claimed effects. Since the claimed range of phenomena "explained"
by the concept of torsion fields is so enormously wide, it's not surprising that some people apply it to audio. |
