[General] The New Aether

[Roychoudhuri, Chandra]

Chip: You ask good and relevant questions!

To further throw a "curve ball" into the discussions and expose my personally biased views about the space as a Complex Tension Field (CTF), I want to iterate two points from my previous publications:

1.      Energy of the universe: 100% of the energy is held by the CTF. No dark energy or dark matter are needed. There are no "matter" anyway! Only 4 to 5% of the tension field energy is manifest as radiation and particles. Rest is the background supporting energy (tension). Everything manifest is some kind of harmonic oscillation. The linear excitation generates EM wave that propagates perpetually away from the site of excitation due to the intrinsic property of any tension field. It derives from the fact that a tension field cannot assimilate the external perturbation energy; so it pushes it away perpetually to achieve its local state of equilibrium (the root origin of the conservation of energy). Self-looped oscillations (resonant for stability) are generated by non-linear excitations. Perpetual self-looped "propagation" "fools" the CTF, as if it is pushing away the external perturbation energy perpetually, just like the linear excitation (EM wave).



EM waves do not have spin or angular momentum. Interaction of multiple polarized E-vectors with (axially symmetric) dipolar detectors, generate various spin and angular momentum like responses in our detectors. Just like the field quantization, we are imposing spin and angular momentum on "photon" wave packets by detecting them with particles that have all sorts of quantized properties, including spin and angular momentum. Yes, we do "see" the world; unfortunately, only indirectly through detectors that are always "wearing quantum goggles"! And we are believing 100% on these "biased reporters" :)!! That is why truly free imagination to visualize the ontological reality is so vital. The path is process visualization. Invisible natural interaction processes are ontological. Evidences (of "evidence based science") are always "colored" by the sensors' intrinsic biases; which can never be overcome; except through logically self-consistent iterative mapping of every possible interaction details (Interaction Process Mapping Epistemology, IPM-E).

2.      CTF as the inertial (stationary) reference frame: The "stuff' of the universe is the stationary tension field. That is how nature accommodates the same laws of physics in every galaxies. Spectrometry proves it. All Doppler frequency shifts, - (a) permanent due to source velocity, and (b) perceived due to detector velocity, are distinctly different phenomena,; because CTF is stationary. CTF is only three dimensional! But it has a variety of built-in tensions whose "appropriate perturbations" is making the observable universe "tick"! The CTF is imperceptible to us directly because we , ourselves are emergent complex assembly of various localized self-looped oscillations. This is why the structure of the universe appear so elusive; but it certainly is neither an illusion, nor  a Holographic Projection of a hologram in the hand of some Creator :)!
Sincerely,
Chandra.

Hi John M

Thank you for the paper.

I have a few questions:

You propose that the photon has quantized angular momentum, (as QM suggests), so you feel the photon is inherently quantized, and has a center of action which is located at its center of angular momentum?

You are using acoustic equations, which implies to me, that you feel that light is a compression (longitudinal) wave instead of the Maxwellian transverse wave.  Is this an accurate reflection of your view?

By the way, I agree that Compton Scattering does not prove the photon is a particle.  If we treat the electron in its entirety as a set of circulating fields, and use a photon model which seems realistic based on experiment.

When I try to conceive your illustrated electron model as a set of standing waves, it kind of looks like an onion in a 3D view.  With waves moving inward and waves moving outward.  But you also say that it is a vortex, with angular momentum, which, in my mind, conjures up a notion of circulating fields instead of the standing wave model. Circulating fields, when viewed from any point external to the model, contain an advancing and a retreating wave component as well. But it seems the two models are not compatible.  Thoughts?

Also, have you considered using a full set of wave equations, which go beyond the longitudinal acoustic formulation and accommodates both transverse and longitudinal waves?
Is there some compelling reason in your mind not to follow this avenue?

Hello All,

Attached is a copy of the paper that I submitted for the SPIE conference except that it is in a 2 column format which I prefer for informal circulation.  In particular, I would like to call your attention to section 2 of this paper starting on page 2 and finishing on page 4.  Many parts of this paper were inspired by this group, but particularly this section 2. The message has come through loud and clear that no one else believes that spacetime can have the energy density that I propose.  This section addresses that point.  I also like the quote contained in the first paragraph.  I think that it sets the stage for the rest of the paper.

I will be traveling for a few days, so I might not be able to answer comments immediately.

John M.
