Well /sci/ I've just read a paper that had some fairly convincing arguments for a cooling effect of moonlight.

Claim: Two equal glasses of water are left outside at night for a few hours during or near a full moon, they both measure the same temperature. Then one glass gets a shade set up blocking the moonlight. They are both left a couple more hours. The temperature reading is done again surprisingly the one in the shade measures warmer than the glass of water left in the moonlight for some hours.

Can /sci/ prove or debunk this phenomena?
If proven, can /sci/ explain this strange behavior of moonlight.

>> No.9561062

the shade isolates the water from the air you doofus, it has nothing to do with light. it would be the same if the two glasses were placed in a dark cabinet.

>I couldn't even find the data.
This is part of the problem, it's been hypothesized that moonlight causes cooling, but there really is no official data one way or the other. This question has been asked of science for many years now.

>> No.9561139

from the paper;

>Moonlight is always coming from the opposite direction of Sunlight. This alone is enough to flip it. It doesn't have to be flipped in some fancy process at the surface of the Moon. All it has to do is bounce. The Moon's light is automatically antiphotonic simply because it is coming from the left when the Sun is right. In fact, all light coming from the direction of the Moon is antiphotonic, simply because it is coming from that direction. The light from the planets and stars, when falling at night, is also antiphotonic. Which means. . . it doesn't matter if the Moon is up or not. We would get cooling from starlight and the planets, though not as much. For this reason, someone should have predicted long ago that Moonlight was cooling, and I am just dissappointed it wasn't me. I am getting to the party rather late, and I can only apologize by arriving with an explanation rather than a prediction. The explanation is that the opposing spins of those antiphotons at night tamp down the spins of the dominant photons in the field, causing cooling.

1/2

>> No.9561141

>>9561139
We don't even need photon-antiphoton collisions, since antiphotons will spin down anything and everything they hit. All ions and nuclei in the field will have been spun up previously by the dominant Solar photons, and will therefore be spinning left, say. So whatever the right-spinning antiphotons now hit, they will spin down. This spin down is an energy loss, and thereby a heat loss. This effect on Moonlight would be at a maximum at full Moon, but not only because that is when the reflected light is greatest. It is also important that light at that time is most antiphotonic. At full Moon, the Moon is directly opposite the Sun (or the most opposite it would be without being in Lunar eclipse).

In that position, we don't have to take any sines of angles, getting a reduction in opposition. In that case, the Moon is not “to the side” at all. For this reason, I can at least predict that the maximum cooling effect will be when the Moon is nearest Lunar eclipse without actually being eclipsed. No one else would think to predict that since they don't have my mechanics.

Op, you do realise MOONlight is exactly the same thing as SUNlight just with lower intensity r-right?

Armed with this newfound knowledge please take a swift noose to the throat as you clearly have disregarded the fact that photons are a type of electromagnetic wave (or particle if it is so inclined lol) and therefore INCREASE the total heat of a system, admittedly not by much, but water does block some light and must absorb it's energy.

"Antiphotonic" is gibberish. Technobabble.

Things cool off at night because they're radiating heat into interstellar space and getting practically nothing back. The heat from the Moon is trivial.
The shade may interfere with the radiative process, at least slightly, or it may alter air currents. If you want real cold you need still air. Otherwise the cooled air above the glass is replaced by warm air. You use baffles, like the compartments of an ice cube tray.

A fair comparison would be no moon in the sky vs. a new moon. Both ways, there's no moonlight and no shade needed.

Exactly.
You travel along side-by-side with a moving electron. It has an electric field (lines sticking out radially) but no magnetic field.
Slow down a little so the electric has relative motion. Suddenly it HAS a magnetic field.
Where did it come from? You didn't do anything to the electron.
Magnetic fields are an illusion. Which is not to say they don't have effects.

Maybe it emits less of its own heat in the form of photons by being in the shade?

After reading up about it, the absorption of photons increases temperature, so it not emitting as many photons would mean less loss of energy, which I presume, is being stored in the form of heat. I hope that satisfies your inquiry, OP.

Oh and that's not explainable by the fact that objects exposed to the cooling effects of unclouded skies will cool quicker than those in the shade? Hmmm okay then, i present to you occam's razor my friend.
The simplest explanation for the observed cooling (or quicker loss of heat) is that the heat simply radiates away quicker when exposed to open space.

Chirality.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirality_(physics)

Does this chirality of photons have any effect on the charge field emitted? Is negative charge left and postive charge right? Does that explain the attraction mechanically through the photonic field spin interactions? I think yes, I think OP is definitely heading somewhere with this whole chirality of light thing. Look at the black sun symbol from /pol/ spinning to the right... Did the ancient Aryans know all along?

Mirrors, what about EVERYTHING else other than the moon?

What about rocks and sand and shit? Does all that sunlight reflecting off of sand, sea, etc. cool you down at the beach? Has it been reversed, or is the rock and sand on the moon magically the only rock and sand that does this?

Does the anti-spinning moon light get reversed again when it hits something else -- like various molecules of this and that, dust, clouds and shit in the atmosphere? If so, won't they get reversed and reversed again and again passing through the atmosphere?

Hell, passing through sun before starting on their way to the moon? Do you know how many times a photon will bounce around inside the sun, reflecting of the substance of the sun itself, before it escapes and heads out into space? There'd be zero chance they'd all be spinning the same way when they escaped, whatever they were when they were created. They'd be totally randomized.

And what about light that bounces off one rock on the moon and then another, and THEN heads for Earth? Is it re-reversed to regular sunlight, or is it reversed and then sped up to spin faster?

What about the light reflected off of the moon that was first reflected TO the moon from the Earth?

If I can heat stuff by hitting it with a bright light, can I cool it by bouncing the light off another surface first?

Maybe this "<(theory)>" needs to be thought through more.

You both aren't seeing it though, these day to day reflections here are not directly anti-photonic like the moonlight would be, also these examples taking place during the day will be nullified by the overwhelming amount of light and heat around due to direct sunlight. It is at night that the effect will best show itself, and it's going to need to be a very high mirror to get anywhere near the right angle shift to match what the moon is doing.

Yeah OP doesn't realise that in order to physically spin a photon you'd have to define it as not a point particle but rather as an object with a boundary and a surface, which would seriously fuck up everything we know about physics. I mean think about it, what the hell would photons be made of in that case? Elementary particles? Huh okay then that means you've violated the most basic concept of "it takes energy to move mass" because all photons would have mass YET STILL TRAVEL AT C

And I'm sorry OP but I trust Einstein's description of why objects with mass can't do that. Hell, even picking up an apple will tell you you can't move it at thr speed of light with a reasonable amount of force.

Oh and just incase OP had any standing ground left, he already admitted there is no conventional instrument to detect these "antiphotons" thus, the testable explanation behind his hypothesis is LITERALLY UN-PROVEABLE

Point particles are not reality, they are just a mathematical tool.

from wiki;
>A point particle (ideal particle or point-like particle, often spelled pointlike particle) is an idealization of particles heavily used in physics. Its defining feature is that it lacks spatial extension: being zero-dimensional, it does not take up space. A point particle is an appropriate representation of any object whose size, shape, and structure is irrelevant in a given context. For example, from far enough away, any finite-size object will look and behave as a point-like object.

>an idealization
>representation
>irrelevant in a given context
>from far enough away, any finite-size object will look and behave as a point-like object

I will say this only once. Points are in math, the real world has 0 zero dimension things in it. All particles are real with size, yes small, but not literally points, my point is, points aren't physically there, therefore not technically physics.

The shade will be warmer than the effective temperature of the night sky for radiation cooling and heating. Both cups will initially cool at equal rates from black body radiation loss, but the one with the shade will receive more radiation because its "sky" is warmer than the night sky, e.g. the shade emits more black body radiation than the night sky emits.
