Elizabeth Rauscher

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dr. Elizabeth A. Rauscher received a B.S. in Physics and Chemistry, an M.S. and a Ph.D. in Astrophysics, Nuclear Physics and Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley (UCB). Rauscher was a nuclear scientist and researcher at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory from 1962 until 1979, where she served as Chairman from 1974 to 1977. She was a researcher at Stanford Research Institute Radio Physics Laboratory from 1974 until 1978, a Professor of Physics at John F. Kennedy University of California from 1978 to 1984, and research consultant to NASA from 1983 to 1985 (space shuttle program). She held a U.S. Navy grant from 1970-1974 through UCB and an Air Force consulting position in 1979.

In 1979 Rauscher started her own company, Tecnic Research Laboratories (TRL) which held a number of government and private industrial grants and contracts.

As a consultant and adjunct professor at the University of Nevada, she conducted theoretical research and advised experimental programs on fast light ion-atom collisions, primarily helium, to calculate high resolution extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emission cross sections from 1990 to 1995. From 1997 to 1999 she conducted research on generalized Quantum Theory and relativistic invariance under a Stanford Engineering research grant.^[1]

Rauscher served on the Congressional OTA Advisory Committee from 1970 to 1980, and has been Delegate and advisor to the United Nations in 1979, 1989, and 2002. In 2001, Elizabeth Rauscher developed a detailed theory of a hypotheses of consciousness and spacetime based on an eight-dimensional complex Minkowski space. Currently President of Electromagnetic Signal Laboratory of Arizona since 2003. Since 2001, Rauscher has been collaborating with scientist Nassim Haramein, Director of Research at The Resonance Project Foundation developing a Unified Field Theory typically referred to as the Haramein-Rauscher metric which describes spacetime with the inclusion of a fundamental torque and Coriolis dynamics as a source for spin/angular momentum at all scales.^[2]

She is the author of over 250 technical papers, four books, and holds three U.S. patents and one European patent.^[3]
