... Dec 1981) Home | Issue Contents "Limited Fusion" and "Anode-Stars"Martin Sieff In a covering note to my article "The Father of the Gods" (SIS Workshop 3:2 ) which I did not see in advance, it was claimed that: "The Sieff hypothesis is incompatible with that of R. E. Juergens and his electromagnetic model for the Solar System." Although I proposed several hypotheses in the paper, the writer did not specify which of these was incompatible with Juergens' model, nor why it should be so. I presume that he was referring to the hypotheses either; (a ) that the Sun was originally part of a ...
2. On Morrison: Some Final Remarks (Forum) [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. V No. 2 (Winter 1980) Home | Issue Contents Forum On Morrison: Some Final Remarks To the Editors of KRONOS: In two recent issues of KRONOS you have printed papers by Ralph E. Juergens entitled "On Morrison," criticizing my paper "Planetary Astronomy and Velikovsky's Catastrophism" (in Scientists Confront Velikovsky). Mr. Juergens raises a great many issues in these two papers, and in some cases he has badly misread my arguments. Since I believe the record should be cleared for your readers, I request the courtesy of an opportunity to reply in your pages to Mr. Juergens. References are to volume [III ...
3. The Critics and Stellar Energy [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Review Vol II No 2 (Dec 1977) Home | Issue Contents The Critics and Stellar Energy Ralph Juergens' paper, "Galactic Space Charge and Stellar Energy" (SISR I:4 ), was designed as a "springboard for further discussion". Some members' responses are given here, with Juergens' reply. I am indebted to Mr Juergens for first awakening my interest in astrophysics by an article in Pensée (1 ). He has been able to follow my progress in the field by letters I have sent him, with all kinds of wild theories and suggestions. Today, after four years, I feel that I know enough about ...

... C .) who established the scientific canon that a myth is to be explained by natural causes. And when Dorothy Vitaliano years later attacked Velikovsky while espousing euphemerism herself, she failed to realize that she was merely reducing Velikovsky, not supplanting his method, which was the same as her own. By the standards that Cook, Bruce, Juergens, Milton and Deg came to set for sky-body conduct, Velikovsky was actually conservative and conciliatory to the establishment. He was heretical but not a full-scale quantavolutionary. Deg came to feel almost perfunctory when he argued for the middle-road quantavolutionaries like Velikovsky. If a mini-microphone had been implanted in one of Deg's large ears, we would be entertained ...
5. Testing Juergens' 'electric sun' theory [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1997:1 (Oct 1997) Home | Issue Contents Notes and Queries Testing Juergens' electric sun' theory Q. In a letter printed in Pensée IVR VI (Winter 1973-74), pp. 62-65, Ralph Juergens wrote: It seems to me that a space-probe discovery or non-discovery of a cathode drop region somewhere beyond Jupiter would provide the best means for choosing . . . my idea of a sun fuelled by electric currents from galactic space. ' He hoped that Pioneer 10 would reach a region where positive ions are rapidly cooling' and are then accelerated away from the sun'. Contact was finally lost with Pioneer 10 a ...

9. Of Lessons, Legacies, and Litmus Tests: A Velikovsky Potpourri (Part One) [Journals] [Aeon]
... As Bauer shows, the man who wrote that pamphlet did not understand the science he was seeking to replace. Cosmos most certainly was published by virtue of Velikovsky's placing it in libraries. That Velikovsky never publicly repudiated his Cosmos and Stargazers contradicts May's opinion, as Bauer notes in his book. May also ignores the fact that both Jueneman and Juergens lauded Cosmos. Clearly, Greenberg's mention of May's review in Kronos XII:3 , p. 80, was a mere gesture. Kronos XI:3 announced eight coming attractions for volume XII. All appeared except for the review of Bauer's book which Kronos could have printed had it so desired. As this example and others to be ...
... , to meet Velikovsky. At first de Grazia was not eager to make the acquaintance of such an infamous character, but he happened by chance to read Oedipus and Akhnaton at his brother's house. Intrigued, he told Stecchini that he had changed his mind: could Stecchini introduce them after all? Then Velikovsky brought de Grazia together with Ralph Juergens, a mechanical engineer and science editor for McGraw-Hill. Juergens had been one of Velikovsky's earliest disciples and had moved East from Ohio in order to be near him. Quickly de Grazia read Velikovsky's other books and the Stargazers and Gravediggers manuscript and decided to devote an entire issue of his journal, American Behavioral Scientist, to the Velikovsky phenomenon ...
11. Electric Stars in a Gravity-Less Electrified Cosmos [Journals] [SIS Review]
... happen much faster and the catastrophic events envisaged by Immanuel Velikovsky would be likely. This article is based on the talk given by Dr Milton at a meeting of the Society on "Aspects of Catastrophism", in April 1980*, and forms a tribute to the works of the late Dr C. E. R. Bruce and Ralph Juergens, pioneers in the development of electrical models for the Universe. [* The original transcript of this talk was prepared by Birgit Liesching and Christoph Marx.] Let me say I am pleased to be off the North American continent for a while; it is a refreshing change. It is a pleasure to meet today with so many ...
12. Saxl's Pendulum Convection of Electric Charge Revisited [Journals] [Aeon]
... no bearing on the theory. The work of E. J. Saxl that originally motivated Ginenthal's theory is shown to be fatally flawed and unsuited for studying gravity. The electrical interaction between Sun and planets posited by Ginenthal cannot occur because of the isolating effects of space charge sheaths on charged bodies in a plasma, which R. E. Juergens first discussed in 1972 in Pensee II. While the convection of electric charge, also first discussed by Juergens in Pensee VII, is a likely explanation for Saxl's anomalous results, it cannot account for millisecond changes in Earth's rotation because impossibly large electric charge is required. Magnetic Field Predictions In replying to a recent challenge from Samuel Windsor, ...
13. In Memoriam: Immanuel Velikovsky, Livio Stecchini and Ralph Juergens [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... From: Catastrophism and Ancient History II:2 (Jun 1980) Home | Issue Contents In Memoriam: Immanuel Velikovsky, Livio Stecchini and Ralph Juergens Immanuel Velikovsky Dr. Immanuel Velikovsky died last November. Unlike his friends Albert Einstein and Sigmund Freud, Dr. Velikovsky went to his grave deprived of plaudits from his peers. It is my belief that he was, indeed, the last true Renaissance man: his genius will be recognized after his death even more than the famous painters of the nineteenth century. Of course, Dr. Velikovsky's problem, more than innovative painters, was that he too was far ahead of his time. It is hard to pick out his ...

15. The Not So Stable Sun [Journals] [Kronos]
... photospheric gas.(3 ) Modeling of the photosphere creates problems for astronomers who believe that energy is generated at the center of the Sun. The photosphere is opaque, hence energy must be convected from the interior through the photospheric layer. The granular appearance of the photosphere is taken as evidence that non-stationary convective cells exist in the photosphere. Juergens has argued persuasively that this explanation is incorrect if we consider the physical nature of the solar gas and the convection process.(4 ) A convective model of the photosphere also fails on thermal grounds. If energy is generated in the Sun's interior, the region beneath the photosphere must have an ever increasing temperature with depth. Such a ...

... charge to gravitation of 0.02 (about two per cent). These results indicate that electric and magnetic forces are at least fifty times smaller than gravitation in Earth-Venus encounters, even with Keister's "extreme assumptions" favoring electricity and magnetism . ELECTRIC STARS: Beginning in 1972 in Pensee IVR II (reprinted in Velikovsky Reconsidered), Ralph Juergens began developing a model for stars as electric discharge phenomena powered by a flux of incoming relativistic electrons. He believed his model deserved consideration because several serious problems had been found with the conventional model of stars powered internally by nuclear fusion. In addition, the electric discharge model was supported by a persuasive analogy between the Sun's appearance and behavior ...

When the size of an anode is reduced, the anode sheath must grow large ...

... From: Kronos Vol. V No. 2 (Winter 1980) Home | Issue Contents In Memoriam: Ralph Juergens (May 6, 1924- November 2, 1979) The death of our colleague, Ralph Juergens, preceeded that of our mentor, Immanuel Velikovsky, by only two weeks. Here let us speak of Ralph. Leaving his career as an engineer in 1960 to pursue his new found interest in Dr. Velikovsky's work, Ralph became a most stalwart supporter, as well as a foremost chronicler of the scientific debate of the twentieth century. At the same time, he worked diligently on his own theory of the electrical nature of the Sun- highly revolutionary ...

21. Forum: Electric Universe [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ' rising from the solar interior may have a kind of validity in electric stars if internal charge stratification breaks down. It has strong echoes of Eric's earlier work on the expulsion of positively charged matter from the cores of gas giants to form smaller cosmic bodies. That might explain some of the theory's appeal. The reason I have championed Ralph Juergens' model of the Sun has been the attention he paid to the finely detailed observations of the Sun. These were then fitted seamlessly to the complex phenomena of an electric discharge in a low-pressure gas, with the Sun as the anode. This is a supremely important distinction of Juergens' model, because the devil is in the details ...

... not be made until these problems were faced. By 1979 I had outlined some of the parameters of a solution and distributed them to friends under the title "10-36 = 0." In this pamphlet I proposed that gravity is better explained as the result of opposing electrical repulsions than as an attraction between masses. I assumed, as Ralph Juergens had earlier [" Plasma in Interplanetary Space"], that the Sun and the planets possess net negative electrical charges. Juergens considered that an aether-like sea of cosmic charges impinged upon the Sun just as a surrounding "electron-sea" was once seen to keep conductive electrons within a wire carrying an electrical current. Juergens' work led me ...

... under 10,000 years." The worldwide historical and legendary record strongly indicates about 2700 years. There is good reason, therefore, after having passed the 10,000 year barrier, to proceed without hesitation to the 2700-year point. THE RILLES OF MOON The recent devastation of the Moon is the subject of an analysis also by Ralph Juergens [10]. He focused especially upon its hundreds of wavy rilles, its canyons and its craters. The craters are sites of explosions. Some, like Aristarchus, are still warm. The rilles cleave the surface and often seem to feed into the craters, going up-ground to do so with whatever they might once have carried. ...

His millions of years' timescale inspired Darwin's gradualist ...
