Like they say, a little knowledge is dangerous. And I've gotten into trouble already. I extrapolated from your ideas, Felix's ideas, and Profpat's ideas, and I may be leading Dipayankar astray.

Here is the situation:

• Positrons and electrons are affected differently in the presence of a magnetic field.
• A common concept for many is the idea of a parallel anti-matter universe. (An idea I find a bit sloppy since anti-matter seems to magically disappear from our universe.)
• I noted that, though positrons and electrons annihilate each other, photons seem to co-exist with either.
• After the Big Bang, if matter and anti-matter was unevenly distributed due to sensitivity to magnetic variations, then they might collect in "pools". Of these pools, the matter and anti-matter would annihilate each other leaving only the more predominant residue - matter or anti-matter - which would congeal into galaxies. Thus, some galaxies might be composed of matter while others are composed of anti-matter. Meanwhile, photons would be oblivious to the differentiation and pass blissfully between all galaxies.

Here is the dialog:

Magnetism already seems to separate and "sort" particles from anti-particles. The other factor to be considered is dleviwing's aether which I am slowly beginning to understand. It may be that particles and anti-particles tend to "pool" together. If photons are oblivious to matter versus anti-matter, then it might be possible that some visible galaxies are anti-matter with any alien matter being annihilated long ago in random collisions which purified the galaxies. The same would be true for the Milky Way. But this, of course, is only speculation and needs the evaluation/input of others. But if it were true, I would expect some cataclysmic galactic collisions somewhere in the universe where a "matter" galaxy and an "anit-matter" galaxy annihilate each other. At the moment, I am not aware of any such spectacular collision, so that tends to temper my beliefs. But then again, it took a while for black holes to be recognized.

I would like a ToE to exist in one integrated universe which my "pools" enable. So, my hope was to avoid a parallel universe scenario, the gist of Dipayankar's question. Plus, a one-for-one correspondence between positrons and electrons is long gone in my scenario. Only residue remains. All of the galaxies are composed of the predominent residue of their originating pools - matter or anti-matter.

Is this "pooling" idea plausible?

David, please provide your insight - especially from the perspective of aether.

Thanks!
