Was Edwards Contradicted Experimentally?
Year: 1992
Keywords: Edwards effect, variant, model-dependent, crucial conditions
A previous paper analyzed the Edwards effect and found that it was predictable from Beckmann's theory. In another "variant" of the experiment, no such effect was detected. It is shown that the experiment failed to satisfy some crucial conditions, and that the conclusions drawn from it are inavlid unless they are made model-dependent.
