Shadowy man,

I may just take you up on that.... Though I must point to what it takes to get honest replies around here...

Well Shadowy man,

At first cut it will appear the galaxy is accelerating for some relativistic period, then after the spectral data may show the galaxy to be returning to normal operation. This may only show the presence of a tri-partite particle. The period of seeming acceleration would indicate the period during which the transitions from S1 to S3 via S2 are active. If the galaxy seems to be continually accelerating, then the transition state S2 is becomming the stable state and itz relativistic period is longer, perhaps approaching infinity. Why would the galaxy seem to be accelerating would be due to the influence the particle has on the normal particle emissions. If you draw the light triangle for accelerating frames of references, you will find what transitions the normal light is passing through.

These would be periods of intense activity. During this period it (the galaxy) may not emit large quantities of light. If a galaxy emits large quantities of light, and does not appear to accelerate or decelerate then the period should only indicate perhaps a dual-state particle.

Your next question may be how to get this effect in the lab? That is if you want to ask it...

What would be the spectral signature of a "tri-partite particle"? At what wavelengths would you see it? Absorption or emission? What would be the approximate equivalent widths measured? At what flux levels? In which types of galaxies would you expect to see this?

A theory isn't too useful if it doesn't produce any observables.

Oxymoron

Wow Mr Sammi, you really can use Google!

Mr. Sammi

Well then, do a search using google or some other search engine and find the predictions I WAS going to post...

Have you perchance had a look at the book I mentioned in my above post? If not, here is the link again: Hunting Down the Universe. I'm not saying I necessarily agree with it, but the author argues the case of Fred Hoyle et. al., who are working on this problem, and the bias in the scientific community against such work. You should check it out.

Thanks, Shake, but all the same I'm not going to read the book. I believe I've given steady-state models enough of my attention, at least for now. The clock is ticking, my brain is limited, and I have so much to learn (and miles to go before I sleep).
