Newton's pebbles

From wiki:
The 160-minute solar cycle was an apparent periodic oscillation in the solar surface which was observed in a number of early sets of data collected for helioseismology.

The presence of a 160 minute cycle in the Sun is not substantiated by contemporary solar observations, and the historical signal is considered by mainstream scientists to occur as the redistribution of power from the diurnal cycle as a result of the observation window and atmospheric extinction.

Some cyclical pulsation of the sun will not magically cause planets to form. You are still just doing numerology which is just bogus crap.

He's only dug up this about two point sources because it is a scenario in which interference does lead to a standing wave, after we pointed out they were not the same thing.

But of course he has no idea what his his two point sources could be. The sun is (a) a single source and (b) not a point. -_O

Agreed. As you pointed out earlier this is useless...

au contraire, the Sun has many points, not just two that generate the pulsations, think the convection cells. In this 25 year old brainwave, I leave the eventual discovery of the nature and origin of these resonances to better minds, but are pointing out the resemblance to a doubling of wave-length resonance (press the right pedal on your piano) and the observed eigenschwingungen of the solar system. Let's wait and see what the exo planet research brings up between star pulsations and planet spacings.
I thought I would have a look at this relationship: x² + (x +1)² + (x+2)² = (x+3)² + (x+4)². Turns out it simplifies to x² -8x -20=0, which has 2 roots, 10 and (rather trivially) -2, the latter giving a sum of 5, rather than 365. But wait, do you realise 5 is number of digits on your hands and feet, not to mention the number of working days of the week?
Why would you rather look at these math curiosities numerology than the relationships of the orbits as they appear when seen in terms of wavelength, in a "c" progression?
This looks like nothing more than numerology.
Among the definition of "numerology" is its relationship to the occult, the mystical, and with this model of the solar system as a wave pattern tried to take it away from that discredited branch and link it to matching natural patterns

Yes, I think leaving it to better minds is a jolly good idea.

At least you admit that the model deserves the attention of better minds. You have raised specific objections (like the idea that standing waves can only be caused by reflection), and they have been refuted one by one . There are many possibilities how this 7 fold doubling and coinciding with solar pulsations can have arisen, and the future will show whether it is a unique, only-here phenomenon, or a universe-wide model.

Yes well done, or rather well researched, Nebel, you are quite right about interference from multiple point sources being able to create standing waves.

I had not mentioned it originally as I had no reason to think multiple point sources of anything were supposedly involved in this case. You had made no reference to them whatever. We were talking, it seemed, about the sun which is neither a point source nor a multiple source.

What you have now done is to look up how a standing wave can arise in the absence of reflection - in order to try to overcome my objection - and now you are trying to work this into your notion retroactively.

This is quite hopeless. Further dialogue will serve no purpose.

Contrary to what you believe to be the case, these references to the origin of standing waves have been on my books for decades, but i was glad you brought up your objections, because it gave me occasion to refute them, You fulfilled in part the reason I put this model up for discussion. and --so: how about the standing wave we live on, the arm of the milky way? BSW: I postulated that the doubling pattern linked to possible past standing waves is consistent with a property of space, not dependent on the mass of the planets.
