By accepting such an idea, it must be assumed as a matter of fact that the human brain can somehow "locate" the future by means of the neutrino. Parnov observed that other theoreticians had hypothesized that the neutrino's peculiar behavior is due to the fact that this particle moves from the future into the past rather than the other way around. Such a concept would do justice to the third paradox. It is interesting to note that these paradoxes were expressed before theoreticians began extensive discussions on tachyons (particles said to have a velocity greater than that of light). Mental ions ("mentions"), having similar velocities of propagation, have also been postulated. They are discussed further in Part B of this section. (U) Another theory which could help explain the third paradox is based on the law of conservation of combined parity, advanced by L.D. Landau. Ac cording to that law, symmetry is preserved in any system whenever the "left" is substituted by the "right" and a particle by an antiparticle. It then appears that all relationships are invariant with respect to time inver- sion. Thus, Parnov concluded, the third paradox may contradict the letter, put not the spirit of modern physics. (U) I.M. Kogan, referred to earlier, was the first to publish experimental results in human telepathic communication in the post-Vasilev era.”"? 222 Only the qualitative and quantitative results will be presented here; the interested reader can peruse the above references for Kogan's research protocol. Kogan arranged his experiments in four groups (excluding experi- ments involving the use of hypnosis which can be found in an excellent article by Velinov) ; the four groups included: (1) mental suggestion of an act involving objects at short distances; (2) mental suggestions of the image of an object and selection of a given object at short distances, (3) mental suggestion of object images over long distances; and (4) mental transmission of object images over long distances. None of the experiments reported by Kogan were inconsistent with the Soviet electromagnetic hypoth- esis. An analysis of the results revealed certain qualitative and quanti- tative characteristics common to all experiments. They were: (1) the rate of telepathic information transmission varied between 0.005 and 0.1 bit/sec.; (2) the rate of information transmission depended upon the distance the information had to travel, ranging from 0.1 bit/sec for a distance of several meters to 0.001 bit/sec for a distance of 4,000 km; (3) in telecommunications, the percipient did not take cognizance of the logical concept of the type of object being transmitted; normally, only qualitative images eliciting some kind of sensation (shape, color, hard- ness) were perceived; and (4) the best perception of telepathic information eccurred when the messages were short (up to one minute). Transmission of simple, brief, coded combinations of elements (images, emotion) ap- peared to be the proper way of handling coded telepathic information. 19 A CONFIDENTIAL pproved For Releag¢@12004/98/02 ; CIAGRDP9G?08392R000600350001-3
