Ian J Miller was born 7th August 1942 to the son of a policeman sent to Hokitika (New Zealand) to fill vacancies due to the mass murderer Stanley Graham. Secondary education was at Ashburton High School, thence to University of Canterbury (BSc Hons1, PhD), followed by post-docs at Calgary, Southampton and Armidale. I returned to New Zealand to Chemistry Division, DSIR, to work first on lignin chemistry, then recycling, seaweed research, then hydrothermal wood liquefaction. In 1986 I left DSIR to set up Carina Chemical Laboratories Ltd, to carry out research to support the private half of a joint venture to make pyromellitates, the basis of high temperature resistant plastics. (When called to a TV program to discuss the danger of foam plastics in fires, I aimed a gas torch at the palm of my hand, protected only by a piece of foam plastic I had made shortly before. Fortunately, it worked, it glowed yellow hot, but held the heat for about half a minute.) This venture, and an associated seaweed processing venture collapsed during the late 1980s financial crisis, mostly for financial reasons. Current projects include the development of Nemidon gels (www.nemidon.co.nz/) and fuels and chemicals through the hydrothermal treatment of microalgae (www.aquaflowgroup.com/). I have written about 100 peer-reviewed scientific papers, about 35 other articles, and I was on the Editorial Board of Botanica Marina between about 1998-2008.
In my first year University, following an argument with some Arts students, I was challenged to write a fictional book. I did in spare time: Gemina. I subsequently self-published a revised version, only to find publicity was forbidden as a condition of getting my finance for the pyromellitates project. Since then, I have written a few more science in fiction thriller-type novels that don't fit nicely in any category. These form a "future history", and Puppeteer is the first of one entry point.
The guidance wave offers an alternative approach to quantum mechanics. Rather than focus on the position of the particle, which leads to well-known statistical issues, it proposes a physical wave, the equation for which is the Schrödinger equation that determines the energy of the wave oscillation. The wave behaves as a classical wave, which makes this the only theory that operates in normal 3D space, uses separable components of motion, and operates locally. Lengths between node and antinode are determined by the quantization of action. This greatly simplifies some calculations. It is the only theory that acknowledges that the wave function becomes real at the antinode, and by assuming the wave only interacts with the particle there we derive the Uncertainty Principle and the Exclusion Principle, and make the calculation of chemical bond properties so much simpler.
It proposes that the physics used in three Nobel Prizes were faulty. First, the Born rule. Using standard physics the wave and the particle are not in the same place. They are in the guidance wave. For the prize to Pople, the evidence is he used the wrong wave functions and omitted a quantum effect, which was corrected by using assigned constants. It is shown why the rotating polarizer experiments did not show a violation of Bell's Inequality. It also predicts some experimental results that would falsify any theory that requires the property to be determined at measurement. Finally, it shows that nuclear binding might be based on electromagnetism, and by considering the separability of wave components it provides a model that explains why which nuclei are stable.
