WELCOME
Welcome to the P.S.I. Website!
The Paranormal Scientific Investigators (PSI), a nonprofit organization, was founded
on October 15, 2005. We are a group of regular guys and gals with daytime jobs
and share a common interest in the paranormal. When we first began we had only a
few scientific instruments. We began by investigating where some of the local
folklore indicated paranormal activity had occurred in the past. As we grew in
members, we also grew in our methodology, as well as in our scientific
instrumentation. We learned from our earlier investigations and later redefined what
our goals are. PSI has matured considerably from those initial investigations.
We are located in southwest Ohio with our base in Greenfield, which is located at
the northeast corner of Highland County. Because we are non-profit we are doing all
of this at our own expense and so must coordinate to do this after hours. Unlike
many other groups we will only present factual evidence and under no circumstance
provide false, incomplete, or uncertain evidence. We use the scientific method of
inquiry in our investigations, looking for natural explanations first, then consider the
actual evidence, allowing it to speak for itself. Research and experimentation is
encouraged.
Our group has been to a dozen private residences more than once, a number of
public investigations, including the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, Ohio. Our
investigations have taken us to a number of Ohio counties including Highland,
Fayette, Clinton, Richland, Green, Muskingum, Fairfield, and Lucas.
PSI has set up a booth at the Wheels of Progress festival in Greenfield, Ohio, gave
a public presentation at a public library, was contacted by WCPO-TV Channel 12,
from out of Cincinnati, Ohio, interviewed by The Intelligencer & Wheeling News
(West Virginia), and interviewed by The Chronicle Cluster. PSI has also participated
in a raffle for a television set.
Members past and present have included Donnie Shepherd and Mark Stewart
(co-founders), Kendra Frank, Scott Fulkerson, Miranda Stewart, Ron Fulkerson,
Michelle Dunn, Beth Cameron, Joette Hesler, Joni Gilliland, Jonda Lombardo, and
Mike Livingston.

Are you interested in ghosts and want
to join a reputable team, then sign up
with PSI. We are looking for well
driven individuals willing to spend time
to try and document paranormal
activity. All new members will be given
a training course on different
instruments, training will be in a class
room and in the field. Please fill out an

Electromagnetism and Ghost Theory Part I
By Mark Stewart
11-28-2009
The second of Einstein's two relativity theories, his general theory of
relativity, is a theory of gravitation. Its wide acceptance and his original
fame may be attributed largely to the presumed verification of predictions
that he made relative to three effects in astronomy. As it turns out now,
all three of these effects should have been expected from other
considerations: they can be shown to follow from more conventional
physical analyses without the need for his theory and its rather drastic
"nonphysical" concepts.
This theory of electromagnetism follows the same analytical form as
that which has proved to be so successful in electric theory, namely the
form of Maxwell's four field equations in this electromagnetic theory of
light. This theory yields all of the applications known from Newton's
theory of gravitation plus the "expected" dynamical effects of gravitational
waves and radiation, minute effects that Newton failed to provide for.
Although the predicted gravitational radiation effects have the same
order of magnitude of Einstein's, there is enough difference in value that
if these effects are ever measured with sufficient accuracy, these ideas
will be vindicated. Many of these ideas are still being explored to this day;
nevertheless it appears to be a satisfying alternative to Einstein's general
theory of relativity, with much greater physical plausibility.
The universal law of gravitation developed by Sir Isaac Newton is
the law that is employed in practical problems related to gravitation. For
example, it is the law that has been used so successfully in space flights,
accurately predicting the trajectories of spacecrafts in their flights to the
moon, and beyond.
However, without detracting from the genius of Newton, nor of the
applicability of his law of gravitation, it appears that this law is a limited
one. It is an action-at-a-distance law, meaning that its force is supposed
to act throughout space instantaneously. Whereas it is believed that this
gravitational effect is propagated through space with a finite velocity, not
an infinite velocity.
Action-at-a-distance laws in other areas of physics have been
shown to be limited laws, holding only for those cases where the travel
time can be neglected. The effects have been found to be propagated
with the speed of light.
After developing his special theory of relativity, from which the
useful concept of equivalence of mass and energy was deduced, Albert
Einstein developed a second theory of relativity known as the general
theory of relativity, a theory of gravitation. It is not a simple extension of
his special theory, but a complete venture into new concepts. These new
concepts associate gravity with accelerated frames of reference and
include the concept of "curved space". This concept of "curved space"
appears to be a "nonphysical" and inconsistent concept in relativity;
because the special theory of relativity is based on the assumption that
space is not a measurable physical quantity, that there is no fixed frame
of reference in space.
Even though the general theory of relativity appears to be
"nonphysical", this theory gained wide acceptance and gave Einstein his
first fame. His fame came when observations apparently verified
predictions that he had made. He predicted three effects in astronomy,
but these Einstein effects can now be accounted for by other means. The
general theory is not needed to produce any of these effects.
Nevertheless Einstein's general theory of relativity is still used as a
foundational principle upon which modern cosmology rests.
The three effects predicted by Einstein are: 1) A slight revolving
motion of the elliptical orbit of a planet (the advance of its perihelion), 2)
A slight curving of light rays by gravitational attraction, and 3) A red shift
in the spectral lines of light emitted from very massive stars, or even from
the Sun.
All of these effects considered to have been observed: 1) the orbital
motion effect has been measured on Mercury. 2) The bending of light
rays from stars by the gravitational field of the sun are believed to have
been observed during solar eclipses when observational conditions were
optimum. 3) The red shift associated with some stars has been
interpreted as a gravitational effect.
Several scientists have deduced these three effects by other
theories. One of the most impressive demonstration of an alternate
means of deducing the three effects, without recourse to general
relativity is developed in the paper by L. Rongved entitled,
"Measurements in Euclidean terms giving all three Einstein effects" Il
Nuovo Cimento, XLIV B (2): 255-271 (1966).
The authors of this paper have deduced these effects in still
another way. Hence there is ample evidence that one does not need the
general theory of relativity to predict these effects and they are not
"proofs" of that theory.
The theory developed by Dr. Thomas G. Barnes is from the same
type of physical concepts that have been successful in electromagnetic
theory. It employs the same form as that in Maxwell's four field equations.
There are four field equations in gravitation and they contain four field
vectors that are analogous to the four-electric and magnetic field vectors
of Maxwell's electromagnetic theory. This gravitational theory yields,
besides the three things mentioned, all the "expected" dynamical effects
that Einstein's theory yields, such as transverse gravitational wave
radiation from accelerated masses and a finite propagation speed.
More will be said on this and eventually how this applies to ghost
theory. But the above and the next several articles will the lay the
foundation of my thoughts regarding electromagnetism and ghost theory.
