Anomalies, Science, "Pseudoscience," and Related Subjects Parapsychology: Selected Articles, Books and Websites Parapsychology, [Marcello] Truzzi contends as a sociologist, is more tough-minded than many other academic fields, yet paradoxically, it remains a fringe subject. "Parapsychologists really want to play the game by the proper statistical rules," he expounds. "They're very staid. They thought they could convince these sceptics but the sceptics keep raising the goalposts. It's ironic, because real psychic researchers are very committed to doing real science, more than a lot of people in science are. Yet they get rejected, while we can be slipshod in psychology and sociology and economics and get away with it. We're not painted as the witchdoctors, but they are."

January, 2002 Prof. D. Dutch Accuses Prof. Brian Josephson of Preaching Unlikely Physics BEDLAM, UK—Recently, Dr. Double Dutch (more about him here ), professor at Oxford University, expressed much dissatisfaction with the teachings of Dr. Brian Josephson , professor at Cambridge University and winner of the 1973 Nobel prize in physics. This box is a brief explanation of Prof. D. Dutch's Multiverse Theory of Quantum Mechanics. The writer of this article doesn't claim to understand the theory, but, probably, the reader won't be able to tell the difference. We tried really hard to understand the "Fabric of Reality", but were making no headway, so we decided, hey, what we need are some examples. That's when we set out to find some examples of the Multiverse in D. Dutch's writings, and we came up with some intriguing ones: In the universe familiar to us, Jozsa and Dutch collaborated to invent a quantum algorithm for deciding whether a function is balanced or unbalanced(crazy). As with all famous quantum algorithms, this one is of much practical value. The surprising thing is that in an alternate universe, D. Dutch invented the algorithm all alone

Josephson, Brian David Welsh physicist, a leading authority on superconductivity. In 1973 he shared a Nobel prize for his theoretical predictions of the properties of a supercurrent through a tunnel barrier (the Josephson effect), which led to the development of the Josephson junction. Josephson was born in Cardiff and studied at Cambridge, where he has spent most of his career, becoming professor 1974. In 1962, Josephson saw some novel connections between solid-state theory and his own experimental problems in superconductivity. He then calculated the current due to quantum mechanical tunnelling across a thin strip of insulator between two superconductors, and the current-voltage characteristics of such junctions are now known as the Josephson effect. The Josephson effect may be used as a generator of radiation, particularly in the microwave and far infrared region, and in detecting tiny anomalies in a magnetic field.

Keywords: ESP, string theory, anthropic principle, thought bubble, universal mind, mental state Subj-class: General Physics A model consistent with string theory is proposed for so-called paranormal phenomena such as extra-sensory perception (ESP). Our mathematical skills are assumed to derive from a special 'mental vacuum state', whose origin is explained on the basis of anthropic and biological arguments, taking into account the need for the informational processes associated with such a state to be of a life-supporting character. ESP is then explained in terms of shared 'thought bubbles' generated by the participants out of the mental vacuum state. The paper concludes with a critique of arguments sometimes made claiming to 'rule out' the possible existence of paranormal phenomena.

European Samueli Symposium, Freiburg, October 2003 1. Introduction Critics of claims of the paranormal, e.g. Deutsch (2001) (Radin 1997) in support of the reality of such processes, and seem naive given the range of imaginative proposals concerning the nature of reality currently being put forward for serious consideration by conventional physicists. One important advance has been the superseding of the so-called Standard Model as a fundamental theory of nature by string theory ( http://superstringtheory.com ), where the Standard Model features merely as a subset of the set of permitted possibilities. As Carr ( ) (whose approach is centred on the alternative Randall-Sundrum picture) has suggested, such a change in perspective opens up new possibilities in science, including the possibility of accommodating paranormal phenomena within physics. In the following a number of concepts are combined, each in essence consistent with accepted ideas, resulting in a qualitative explanation for ESP, with the promise of an eventual clear cut basis for understanding paranormal phenomena in general.

F.I.T. Messtechnik GmbH FITM Homepage Products HFD SQUID-Based Field Distribution Measuring System HSM2 SQUID-Based Spinner Magnetometer ... News HTS SQUIDs Mail HTS SQUIDs The picture shows a photograph of the HS20 SQUID Chip In 1986, a new class of superconductors has been discovered which become superconductive at temperatures even higher than 100 K. Cooling these materials can now be performed by liquid nitrogen which is cosiderably less expensive than liquid helium, and has a much longer hold time due to its greater heat capacity. Because of their higher operating temperature, these materials are called 'High Temperature Superconductors' (HTS). An essential element for producing SQUIDs was predicted by Brian D. Josephson who theoretically investigated two 'weakly coupled' superconductors, an element that is now called a Josephson junction. Josephson considered two pieces of superconductor which are separated by a very thin (only a few atoms thick) layer of insulating material. He could show that despite the thin insulating layer, a current can flow from one superconductor to the other due to quantum-mechanical tunneling effects. Up to a certain value, this current flow is without losses. If, however, this certain value - which is called the critical current - is exceeded, the current flow encounters resistance, and a voltage can then be measured across the thin insulating layer. Wb. SQUIDs are owing their ability to detect extremely low fluxes down to values making only a few millionth parts of this quantity.

Extensibility of Activities and the Design of the Nervous System Brian D. Josephson This paper extends previous proposals concerning the design of the nervous system given in papers at the ECHO and NESCI conferences (the ECHO paper can be found at http://www.tcm.phy.cam.ac.uk/~bdj10/papers/amiens/ and the NECSI paper at http://www.tcm.phy.cam.ac.uk/~bdj10/papers/ICCS97/abstract.html). The nervous system is idealised as a collection of capacities, generated by corresponding mechanisms which drive the individual to attempt to accomplish particular kinds of tasks, and provide support for such attempts. The feasibility of such mechanisms is related to the extendibility of the activities concerned, i.e. the ease with which extended goals can be achieved on the basis of existing accomplishments. If activities are extendible in principle in this sense, then the actual nervous system design is a matter of arranging for the appropriate exploration of the space of accomplishments to take place, with retention of successes in the form of new modules which can be optimised, a process leading to the emergence over time of the new capacity contingent upon the design. This theory has implications for how we view capacities such as
