At least for some alternative theories, which fit under the umbrella<br>
of "Hidden Variable Theories", I have already created a forum at<br>

I have to admit that, even if it is open to various alternative<br>
approaches, I'm interested only in such approaches which are<br>
compatible with modern physics. In particular, the theories I propose<br>
there have general relativity and the standard model of particle<br>
physics as limits.<br></blockquote><div><br><br></div><div>Let me offer you another perspective on GR and the standard model, as I shared with someone the past few days:<br><br>-:-<br><br></div><div>You may be interested in the paper by Dr. C.K.

So, they are "alternative" mainly in the philosophy which is used,<br>
what is rejected is the positivism of modern physics, the "shut up and<br>
calculate" ideology, what is, instead, allowed and supported are<br>
classical hidden variable approaches.<br></blockquote><div><br><br></div><div>I would argue that the proposal of hidden variable theories in and of itself suggest there is something amiss with the current standard model, most notably the rejection of the existence of longitudinal waves. There are a number of sources which suggest these do exist and also that they propagate at a speed of sqrt(3) times c. <br><br></div><div>IMHO, hidden variable theories are essentially an attempt to make up for the loss of information in the model, while the most natural way to regain that information is to consider longitudinal waves as a real phenomena. Big advantage of such an approach is that it is testable, for instance by repeating Wheatstone's 1834 experiment with modern equipment or by performing a longitudinal moonbounce. <br><br></div><div>Another subject of discussion in this regard would be "fast light" or "anomalous dispersion", which appears to involve longitudinal waves as well. I started writing an article about this a while ago, which is not finished and thus not ready for easy consumption, but contains some interesting links for further reading:<br><br><a href="http://www.tuks.nl/wiki/index.php/Main/LongitudinalMoonBounceChallenge">http://www.tuks.nl/wiki/index.php/Main/LongitudinalMoonBounceChallenge</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,<br><br></div><div>Arend.<br></div><div><br><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
