 Astronomy (subquantum kinetics)
LaViolette is credited with the discovery that brown dwarfs and jovian planets lie along the lower main sequence of Eddington's stellar mass-luminosity relation.[18]  This finding confirmed the subquantum kinetics prediction that photons in a galaxy environs should progressively blueshift their frequency over time, spontaneously generating an energy excess termed genic energy;[4] also see SQK Predictions No. 4 and 5.  Professor Pappas at the Technical University of Pireaus has taught his students about LaViolette's genic energy M-L discovery and has quizzed them about it.
This genic energy hypothesis also led LaViolette to predict the existence and magnitude of the Pioneer effect over a decade prior to its discovery.[19]  This prediction is further elaborated on in SQK Prediction No. 6; also see discussion given in the following Pioneer effect press release.  Nobel Laureate Hans Bethe read Dr. LaViolette's paper in September 2002 and agreed to sponsor it for posting to the Cornell electronic preprint archive (arxiv.org).  He communicated to LaViolette that "he felt that [LaViolette] may have something there" and that he "doesn't know of anyone else who has proposed something similar."
Based on the continuous creation cosmology that was forthcoming from subquantum kinetics, LaViolette predicted in 1985, elaborated on in subsequent publications, a galaxy growth scenario.[4, 6, 20]  His prediction was confirmed in 1995 by Hubble Space Telescope observations of galaxies in high-redshift galactic clusters; see SQK Prediction No. 7.
Based on the continuous creation and genic energy predictions of subquantum kinetics, LaViolette correctly predicted in 1985 that blue supergiants should be the precursors of supernova explosions, not red giants.[4]  His prediction was verified in 1987 through the discovery that the precursor to Magellanic Cloud Supernova 1987A was a blue supergiant; see SQK Prediction No. 9.
Based on the continuous creation predictions of subquantum kinetics, LaViolette correctly predicted in 1985 that high mass stars such as blue giant, blue supergiant, and Wolf-Rayet stars should populate the Galactic core region.[4, 6]  His prediction was verified in 1995 and 2003 through infrared telescope observations of the center of our Galaxy; see SQK Prediction No. 10.

 

Physics--field theory (subquantum kinetics)
LaViolette's subquantum kinetics theory qualifies as a unified field theory in that it provides explanations for the electric and magnetic fields, gravitational field, nuclear binding force, and weak force.  It is the first such theory to predict the existence of a bipolarity for the gravitational field and a direct coupling with the electric field, one that may be observed even at low energies (E ~ 104 volts).[4, 6, 21]
In his 1985 introductory paper on subquantum kinetics,[4] LaViolette proposed that the wave characteristics of subatomic particles should arise from a stationary electric potential wave pattern in the particle core; see SQK Prediction No. 1.  This prediction was confirmed in 2002 by particle scattering experiment findings indicating that the electric charge distribution in the nucleon core has a wave character similar to what LaViolette had proposed.  This is discussed in detail in LaViolette's 2008 paper in the International Journal of General Systems (IJGS).[5]  This confirmation led LaViolette to conclude that the Schroedinger wave packet model is invalid, although quantum mechanics is mathematically workable in its present form.[5]
In his 1985 IJGS paper, LaViolette predicted on the basis of subquantum kinetics that higher energy photons should travel slightly more rapidly than lower energy photons.[4]  This prediction was confirmed in 2007 with the discovery by a team of astrophysicists using the MAGIC gamma ray telescope who found that higher energy gamma rays traveled faster from a distant galaxy than their lower energy companions.[22] This is further discussed at SQK Prediction No. 2 and in his 2008 IJGS paper.[5]
