Biography

I am an Italian citizen living in Holland. I was born in 1955, in Cava dei Tirreni, a small town not far from Naples and from Salerno.

I studied Physics at the University of Salerno. After my degree, I spent some years doing research in superconductivity (at the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt in Berlin and at the Salerno University). I decided thereafter to join the European Patent Office (EPO) in the Netherlands (in Rijswijk, a small town near the Hague). I have been living in the Netherlands (and working at the EPO) since 1986.

In my free time I like to read any theory challanging Einstein's Relativity theory or to carry out a theoretical research on this subject. I am in fact convinced that there is something wrong with Einstein's theory, notwithstanding its huge number of successes and nearly universal acceptance by physicists.

Antonio Ferrigno used to cheat at poker when he was playing with his friends.

I know, I was one of them.

We lost contact with him around 2004 when he went, what I call, bonkers.

Sorry to hear that he died.

He owed me 75 pounds...

In what way did he go bonkers?

He seems to have ventured into some interesting areas - superconductivity, etc.

Well he stopped bathing for one.

And wore the same clothes for weeks...

Sounds like a typical scientist.

He coulda been a plumber for all I care.

He owes me money.

But now...now he's a cadaver.

There's that word:



The Lorentz transformations lead to various paradoxes.

Murder of Antonio Ferrigno
December 28th, 2009

There is nothing in English yet. I will update with English language stories when they become available.

For now, a machine translation of Elsevier Netherlands:

The 54-year-old man died Thursday in his apartment at the Mayor Elsen Avenue in Rijswijk (near The Hague) was found, appears to be a famous nuclear physicist. The Italian engineer Antonio Ferrigno was brutally murdered.

If he was a famous nuclear physicist, what was he doing working at the patent office? Isn't that what Einstein did for a living?




Famous nuclear physicist killed (head of the European Patent Office!)

(Transelated from the Dutch newspaper "telegraaf" )


Famous nuclear physicist killed

AMSTERDAM - The 54-year Rijswijker from the day before Christmas was found dead in his apartment house Rijswijk, shows the leading nuclear physicist Dr. Antonio Ferrigno be. The researcher, head of the European Patent Office, is a crime killed.


The lifeless body of the Italian scholar was found by his family. According to witnesses, his hands tied and he lay in a pool of blood. Who is behind the brutal murder, is still a mystery.

Possible forms Ferrigno's recent and remarkable discoveries in the field of pacemakers motif. The nuclear physicist, who is very high global repute, the regular telephone recently been threatened, said one insider.

The news item from 'De Telegraaf' was mostly nonsense. Antonio Ferrigno was an examiner at the EPO, not its head. I knew him to say 'hi' to. He was not well-known. He had written a couple of papers on superconductivity while doing research in the 1980s and he had a bit of a bee in his bonnet that Einstein's theory of special relativity was wrong (about which he also wrote a paper (which is written in creaky English and is a bit odd, frankly - see other posts here). Apart from that, he had been an examiner at the EPO for 22 years. That's all, folks. He was certainly murdered and the police are investigating.

Now, however, by simply Googling 'Antonio Ferrigno murder Rijswijk' you can find all sorts of bollocks about how he was murdered by CIA/Mossad in order to prevent him disclosing something or other to do with nuclear blah, blah, blah.

There are some sad people out there. They should get a life.

Pulgosa,

I doubt that you ever have seen Antonio.
I used to see him at least three time a week for the last 24 years.
I NEVER hear from him the word "Poker" or "gamble" or any thing similar. I never hear some one complaining of being cheated by him.
He has been available all that time for everybody who wanted him. But I know no one to hum he had proposed a round of Poker, even less that have lost play card with him and certainly no one who can legally claim a credit from him and who had not a proper satisfaction!
He was no reach, he had invested almost all his money in his family and was respectful of people and (wisely) of his budget.

We used to talk about job, family, friends, scientific theories, politics, hopes, problems, programs ... for hours.

His house was not lavish but clean and well attended, by himself. Some time he conceded to much to the taste of his wife and was sporting some too coloured shirts, but he was always properly dressed AND ALWAYS CLEAN.

He was a generous father, a trustful and respected colleague, and he enjoyed DIPLOMATIC STATUS (yes, the plate of his car sported the letters "CD").
The people who committed this tragic crime, did make also a stupid mistake: the nederlandse State now want them, to show he can grants security to all the noumerous International Organization seated here (they represent more tha 1% of Nederland's GIP), Italian State is pressuring, European Patent Office is requiring serious action, as other noumerous Organisations....

The perpetrators cannot sleep without warring! They made your same mistake of underevalueting Antonio "status", and already they have the best investigation means tracking them !

I wander how do you look like, Pulgosa, if in your comparison Antonio was "a plumber" ... certainly you are either a Prince or....

But if you NEVER HAVE SEEN him, why do you spread sheet on a dead man?

A logical explanation could exist ... are you familiar with the people who killed him?
If yes, tell them to go directly to the police, will be better for them!

75 pounds of what?

So he seems to have been murdered by a hitman hired by his wife. Divorce problems gone a bit sour...
