Electron Binding Energy Equation

Last night, I finally succeeded in developing the electron binding energy equation for the 1s orbitals of all the atomic elements. This is a major milestone in the Aether Physics Model, as it is our first completed equation showing quantum mechanics in our new and improved model of quantum physics.

The equation was derived using the principles and equations already developed in the Aether Physics Model. This has strongly raised my hopes that the nuclear binding energy and atomic spectral equations will soon follow. Now that I understand the geometry of subatomic binding in atoms, it is just a matter of time before a complete and unequivacal model of quantum structure is known to the world.

Today, I have started writing the paper, which will be submitted to various journals. I'll keep you informed of the progress.

Infinite Energy Magazine Article

I just received my proof copy of Infinite Energy Magazine volume 12, issue 69. The editors did a fine job of presenting our paper, A New Foundation for Physics. However, I was much more pleased with the other articles and authors in the magazine.

The article immediately preceeding ANFP was written by Dr. Cynthia Kolb Whitney, a very qualified physicist and mathematician from MIT. Her article is titled, "Is Optical Detection of Linear Velocity Possible?" She systematically reveals four specific experiments, which do not support Einstein's Special Relativity Theory, and also points out a valid complaint about Einstein specifically excluding acceleration of the coordinate system from his theory. By excluding acceleration, he excluded the rotation of the coordinate system, which means that any experiment performed on the surface of the Earth is effectively disqualified, thus making SRT untestable.

What is really exciting is that Dr. Whitney's article primes the reader's interest in an Aether theory, which is followed immediately by the Aether Physics Model.

I am even more excited by the fact that I personally discussed the Aether Physics Model briefly with Dr. Whitney at the Physical Interpretations of Relativity Theory conference in London, last week. I had no idea her article would precede our article in the same issue. In her presentation at the conference, she mentioned a decades old hypothesis that the photon always maintains a connection to its source. The Aether Physics Model reveals this exact same photon structure, that the photon always remains connected to its source, and this connection is quantified by the Compton function of 1-cos(theta).

I really have to hand it to Christy Frazier, the managing editor of Infinite Energy Magazine, for putting together a well synchronized issue.

I'm now looking forward to reading the rest of the magazine. BTW, the magazine's web site is http://www.infinite-energy.com/.

PIRT Conference a Success

We thank Dr. M.C. Duffy for inviting us to the Physical Interpretations of Relativity Theory conference to present our paper, A New Foundation for Physics. More than 50 engineers, physicists, and chemists presented their own papers. Several of the papers presented related in some way to the Aether Physics Model, and we are following up by studying these papers in greater detail.

For some reason, the papers of all the physicists were not made available before the conference. This made it somewhat difficult for us to prepare for other's presentations, and others to prepare for ours. However, due to some last minute networking, we managed to find several scientists interested in looking further into the Aether Physics Model. These scientists, in turn, have put us in contact with yet others who have been working along similar theories.

In addition, our paper will be published with the conference proceedings, which will allow future researchers to further investigate the theory.

It is only fair to say that not everybody was interested in the Aether Physics Model. One scientist refused to even discuss the theory with me, simply because I did not have a degree. It was a stark reminder that some scientists are just as prejudiced in person, as they are on the Internet. But such trivial setbacks are meaningless when 12 others listened with interest. Perhaps others would have shown more interest in the theory if it weren't for the language barriers.

Still, we would have been delighted to have just one person show deep interest. To have 12 scientists show interest was very good.

We are now busy following up on all the new knowledge we encountered, and also actively discussing the theory with several qualified scientists. Stay tuned for new developments.

We're Going to London!

Jim Bourassa and I have been invited to speak at the Physical Interpretations of Relativity Theory (PIRT) conference in London this week. The conference is held at Imperial College, runs from September 8 - 11, and includes dozens of Relativity scientists from around the world. According to the PIRT brochure, the purpose of the conference is:

"The object of the conference is to examine physical theories, models, and interpretations of the accepted Relativistic Formal Structure, including recently proposed ether-type theories and analogues. It is intended to review the fruitfulness of orthodox Relativity, as developed from the Einstein-Minkowski formulation, and to suggest how history and philosophy of science clarify the relationship between the accepted relativistic formal structure and the various physical interpretations associated with it."

Our presentation will outline the highlights of the Aether Physics Model as explained in our white paper, A New Foundation for Physics. It includes a PowerPoint presentation and brochure, which we intend to distribute before the talk.

Jim and I are very grateful for being invited and believe we will deliver exactly what physicists have been looking for, even if it isn't what the mainstream wanted to see.

Those who have been following the development of the Aether Physics Model, know we have quantified the structure of space-time as Aether from the same empirically derived constants used by modern physics. We also have quantified matter, itself. And to complete our physical Theory of Everything, we have also unified all the forces into a simple, Newtonian type Unified Force Theory.

We will be making history as we present to the scientific community the final fundamental theory of how physical matter began. The Aether Physics Model ties together all the previous fundamental discoveries and adds the remaining, and previously missing, strong force laws.

We also explain that General Relativity has an electrical analog, in addition to the mechanical analog presented by Albert Einstein. General Relativity does not supersede Sir Isaac Newton's gravitational law, but quantifies the effects of stretched space-time, which is caused by nuclear binding. Condensed nuclear binding is directly the cause of high mass density, which corresponds to the stretching of the fabric of space-time (Aether).

We are looking forward to exchanging ideas and making new contacts with the esteemed physicsists, mathematicians, and philosophers who will be in attendance.

Universe is Older than Expected

In Secrets of the Aether, we suggest the Universe did not arise from a single Big Bang event, but rather is a constant "slow bang" caused by some regions of the Universe expanding and others collapsing. Matter is seething in and out of existence constantly.

Now new evidence has surfaced showing the Hubble constant could be off by as much as 15%, thus making the Universe 15% older than previously believed. According to the Aether Physics Model, the Hubble constant should vary for different regions of the Universe. A recent article at Space.com highlighting the work of Alceste Bonanos provides evidence for this hypothesis.

The new method took 10 years to develop and relied on optical and infrared measurements gathered from telescopes all around the world. The researchers looked at a binary star system in M33 where the stars eclipsed each other every five days. Unlike single stars, the masses of paired stars can be precisely calculated based on their movements. With knowledge of the stars' masses, the researchers could calculate their true luminosities, or how bright they would appear if they were nearby.

The difference between the true luminosity and the observed luminosity gives the distance between the stars and Earth. The team's results suggested that the stars were about 3 million light-years from Earth—or about half-a-million light-years farther than would be expected using the commonly accepted Hubble constant value.

If further research shows the Hubble constant is different, depending on which galaxies it is derived from, then this would further support the "slow bang" hypothesis. If the Hubble constant is the same, regardless of where in the Universe it is derived from, then the "slow bang" hypthesis could not be correct.

Real holes?

In a recent EurekaAlert press release:

Electronic devices are always shrinking in size but it's hard to imagine anything beating what researchers at the University of New South Wales have created: a tiny wire that doesn't even use electrons to carry a current.

Known as a hole quantum wire, it exploits gaps – or holes - between electrons. The relationship between electrons and holes is like that between electrons and anti-electrons, or matter and anti-matter.

The holes can be thought of as real quantum particles that have an electrical charge and a spin. They exhibit remarkable quantum properties and could lead to a new world of super-fast, low-powered transistors and powerful quantum computers.

In order for a hole to be exploited, it has to be real. The Aether Physics Model quantifies the quantum unit of space-time, which is a quantum rotating magnetic field. This quantum Aether unit has spin, magnetic polarity, and electrostatic polarity. The reason the Aether Physics Model can quantify the quantum Aether unit as a quantum rotating magnetic field is because there is real data to develop the equations from.

Modern physics will go out of their way to tell us that Aether does not exist, and yet as we read in this article, they end up building devices using properties of the Aether and call it a different name. In this case, Aether units are referred to as "holes," which is quite appropriate. The quantum rotating magnetic field is just that, a hole in which primary angular momentum can exist.

Where are all the black holes?

In a recent EurekaAlert press release:

European and American scientists, on a quest to find super-massive black
holes hiding in nearby galaxies, have found surprisingly few. Either the black
holes are better hidden than scientists realised or they are lurking only in the
more distant universe.

Of course, an obvious explanation could be that super massive black holes do not exist. According to the Aether Physics Model, black holes are implosion events. Matter becomes so dense that it collapses a region of the Aether (space-time). But as the Aether collapses, all the matter is converted from visible matter to dark matter, since the space-time structure has been destroyed. Thus black holes should only exist for as long as it takes for the collapse to take place (minutes, hours at most).

The concept of an ever growing black hole is reminiscent of the movie, The Blob. Probably the concept has caused many people to have nightmares in their sleep. The good news is that not only do black holes have a short life time, there is ample evidence that this is true.

According to the APM, the reason galaxies spiral inward is because matter is constantly collapsing a the most dense location, which is the center. As the Aether collapses in the center of the galaxy, surrounding Aether flows in to replace it, thus bringing more matter close together at the center. The effect is like having a drain in a bathtub. Visible matter is draining out of the visible Universe and returning to the sea of dark matter.

But don't worry about the galaxy running dry of visible matter. Visible matter is created all throughout the galaxy all the time, via the Casimir effect. The so-called "virtual" photons are not virtual at all, but real matter being created by converting dark matter to visible matter. New quantum Aether units are created at the same time.

Thus a galaxy spins because visible matter is draining out the center and being created in the outer regions, just like someone filling a bathtub with the drain plug removed.

Quasars and the APM

In a recent article at Science Daily, a paper examining Quasars and their "intrinsic magnetic moment" provided further evidence in support of the Aether Physics Model.

"This quasar appears to be dynamically dominated by a magnetic field internally anchored to its central, rotating supermassive compact object," Schild said.

Further evidence for the importance of the quasar's internally anchored magnetic field is found in surrounding structures. For example, the inner region closest to the Quasar appears to have been swept clean of material.

The inner edge of the accretion disk, located about 2,000 astronomical units from the central compact object, is heated to incandescence and glows brightly.

Both effects are the physical signatures of a swirling, internal magnetic field being pulled around by the rotation of the central compact object - a phenomenon dubbed the magnetic propeller effect.

The so-called, "central, rotating supermassive compact object," appears to be the same structure as Kiril Chukanov's Quantum Macro Objects (QMO), but on a much larger scale. The QMO is a spherical, two dimensional macro version of a subatomic particle. The accretion disk is full of half-spin matter (protons, electrons, and neutrons) in the form of planets, stars, and other galactic objects. The combination of these structures produces an Aether fabric, which is a macro version of the quantum rotating magnetic field.

Whereas the scientists accurately describe the "inherent" or "intrinsic" rotating magnetic field of the matter, what they are really observing is the optimized Aether exerting a macro rotating magnetic field effect on the Quasar system.

Santilli Magnecules and the APM

A new type of water molecule has been discovered, which exhibits macro Aether structure. It is said to have a structure called a "Santilli Magnecule." A preliminary paper is being written about this new type of water molecule, called HHO. Below is an excerpt from the paper:

The new species required the identification of a new attractive force among atomic constituents that is not of valence type as a central condition, thus occurring among atoms irrespective of whether valence electrons are available or not.

The solution proposed in Refs. [3,5c] was the use of an external magnetic field sufficient to create the polarization of atomic orbitals into toroids (see Fig. 13), as a result of which the orbiting electrons create a magnetic moment along the symmetry axis of the toroid, which magnetic field is nonexisting in the conventional spherical distribution of the same orbitals.

Individual toroidal polarizations are, individually, extremely unstable because the spherical distribution is recovered in nanoseconds following the removal of the external magnetic field due to temperature related effects. Nevertheless, when two or more toroidal polarizations are bonded together by opposing magnetic polarities North–South–North–South– etc. as (see Fig. 16), spherical distributions are again recovered in nanoseconds following the removal of the external magnetic field, but this time such distribution occurs for the bounded pair as a whole.

The above statements indicate that the new water magnecule (HHO) develops its structure from the fabric of space-time, itself, the Aether. The Aether Physics Model clearly shows the toroidal structure of space-time and how subatomic and atomic structures develop from it.

Future discoveries regarding HHO will likely be applied to the Aether Physics Model for determing similar magnecule structural possibilities, and further producing new and exotic materials.

Powers of Phi and Fibonacci Sequence

Yesterday, I noticed a pattern in the Powers of Phi and the Fibonacci Sequence:

Phi¹ = Phi
Phi² = Phi(0+1Phi)
Phi³ = Phi(1+1Phi)
Phi⁴ = Phi(1+2Phi)
Phi⁵ = Phi(2+3Phi)
Phi⁶ = Phi(3+5Phi)
Phi⁷ = Phi(5+8Phi)
Phi⁸ = Phi(8+13Phi)
Phi⁹ = Phi(13+21Phi)
Phi¹⁰ = Phi(21+34Phi)
Phi¹¹ = Phi(34+55Phi)
Phi¹² = Phi(55+89Phi)

I thought this was an interesting and novel expression of the powers of Phi and the Fibonacci sequence. From what I can tell, so far, nobody else has noticed this pattern previously.

7/3/6 - Today I extended the above relationship into a type of multiplication table for powers of Phi. Check the link above to see the full table.

Group Theory and the Aether Physics Model

The following is a letter I emailed to Jim Bourassa and Mario Livio (author of "The Equation That Couldn't Be Solved").

Hi Jim and Mario,

Group Theory applies decisively to the Aether Physics Model, although I profess no expertise in this area. Just as Group Theory sets rules for groups, rather than the objects of those groups, the Aether Physics Model explains physics by the actions of space-time, rather than the actions of the objects inhabiting that space-time.

There are practical applications for the Aether Physics Model that play directly into
metaphysics. One can look at a physical object and see its objective characteristics. That is exactly what modern physics does. But one can also look at the environment of the physical object to see the subjective characteristics associated with objects. That is what metaphysicians do.

The Aether Physics Model thus gives both the subjective and objective views of physical existence; the non-material field in which physical existence exists.

For all the intelligence of modern physicists and their ability to comprehend and apply Group Theory, it is amazing that they vehemently deny the Aether's existence. The Aether, particularly as it is quantified in the Aether Physics Model, is the reciprocal view of objective reality. And just as in Group Theory, this reciprocal view is related to the normal view, but is a completely different group altogether.

It is only a matter of time before someone skilled in Group Theory comes along and realizes the utility and importance of the Aether Physics Model. All of the structures of physical existence can be expressed as structures of space-time, hence the relationship of the Golden Ratio to growing systems (flowers, crystals, populations, body structures, etc). As Jim pointed out, the Golden Ratio in the Aether Physics Model is reflected in the anomalous magnetic moments of the proton and electron, which actually originates in the structure of the Aether unit as shown in the APM. In our book, I provide a whole section devoted to generating various physical structures based upon "Aether numbers," which are actually groups of Aether units.

The Pythagorean musical scale and the structure of atomic nuclei (Linus Pauling's Spheron model) are further examples of Group Theory at work in the Aether Physics Model. It logically follows that if frequency scales, atomic nuclei, and subatomic particles can be quantified in terms of Aether units, then all of physical existence can be quantified in terms of Aether units. But since most of the physical Universe is "empty" space-time, the geometrical analysis of Aether units (includes
fractals) can quantify much more than can objective measurements.

Of even greater interest, since conductance is shown to be the quantification of emotions and feelings, and conductance is a reciprocal unit, one can easily hypothesize that the mind is further quantifiable in terms of other reciprocal units. Just as neuroscientists can now measure one's feelings through conductance, it may be possible to measure ones memory, ability for logic, and other characteristics of mind. This is because reciprocal units as a group apply to the Aether, and if one of those units applies to one aspect of mind (feelings/emotions) then the other units of the Aether likely apply to other aspects of mind. These units include Gforce and capacitance. Such an hypothesis is not without basis, as the Buddhist and Hindu masters have long observed the strong similarities between space-time and mind.

I hope I live long enough to see the Aether Physics Model substantially developed. The power of this theory is far greater than anything mankind has previously achieved in theoretical physics. The APM not only quantifiably unifies the physical forces, but also quantifiably unifies all of physical and non-material existence.

Are We Quacks?

Of course, I'm always questioning whether in fact we may indeed be quacks. After all, why would a physics theory claiming to have the Unified Force Theory and the precise geometry of quantum structure be so slow in gaining wide-spread acceptance? Surely the top physicists of today would be able to spot a good theory when they saw one, right?

I recently had a discussion with a top-notch PhD physicist professor, Warren Siegler. He teaches physics at CNY Institute for Theoretical Physics at SUNY. What started the discussion was a web page he had posted that describes the qualities of quacks. I simply wanted to know whether a quantified theory based upon empirical data would be considered a quack theory. This ended up giving me the unexpected opportunity to actually defend the theory. To my surprise, his only response was to find ways to ignore the theory.

With his permission, I have posted the complete discussion between us online at:
http://www.16pi2.com/quack.htm

One would think it would be easy to simply find errors in the theory being presented, but instead, Prof. Siegel was intent to respond to my theory by touting other theories. It was like trying to tell a Baptist about Buddhism. Every comment about Buddhism would be followed by a quote from the Bible that both judges the error of Buddhism and praises the wonders of Christianity.

Check it out. See why it is so difficult to present a new physics theory to people who think they already have the answers.

Evidence for APM Photon Quantification

In the May 31, 2006 issue of New Scientist is an article titled, "Solar power - Seriously souped up." In this article, writer Herb Brody explains:

When an electron in a semiconducting material becomes free to move about and
conduct current, it leaves behind a vacant site in the crystal, called a hole;
the electron-hole pair is called an exciton.

The exciton in the Aether Physics Model is the Aether (hole) and quantum angular momentum (electron in this case) pair. He goes on to explain:

The amount of photon energy needed to create an exciton in a particular material
is called the band gap

In the Standard Model, the photon is said to be a packet of electromagnetic energy.

Each of these packets of electromagnetic energy, no matter how potent, can still
liberate only one electron. Anything left over will dribble away as heat and
contribute exactly zero to the device's electrical output.

In the Aether Physics Model, we take exception to this type of terminology. A photon is supposed to be the quantum of light. But in the SM, the packet of electromagnetic radiation has a different magnitude for each frequency of light, therefore there are an infinite number of photon "sizes." This contradicts the meaning of "quantum."

In the APM, the photon is quantified precisely as a quantum of electromagnetic radiation equal to the angular momentum of the electron (Planck's constant) times the speed of light:

phtn = h * c

Further, light is quantified as the frequency at which these quantum photons are produced:

ligt = phtn * freq

Thus when the light reaches its target and is absorbed, its velocity component is removed and we get:

ligt/c = enrg

The energy in the equation above is the so-called "energy packet" of the SM. It can be clearly seen that the photon is not equal to the energy packet, they are two completely different concepts. Thus, when theory states that a single photon (energy packet) can produce multiple electrons, this is providing evidence for the APM view of photons. With regard to the SM view of photons, the article states:

How the multiple excitons are produced remains a bit of a mystery. According to
Klimov, when an energetic photon strikes the material, the electron jumps to
what he calls a "virtual" state in which it has actually gained more energy than
was carried by the photon; this seeming contradiction is permitted because the
virtual state lasts for such a brief time. The hyper-excited electron will
transfer some of its energy to another, unexcited electron essentially by
bumping into it. The result: two energised electrons from a single photon.

Typical of the SM, when something isn't understood it is called a "mystery" and is explained in terms of "virtual" physics. In this case, the virtual physics is a "virtual state." When the Casimir effect is explained by others, it is done by inventing a "virtual photon." Once could literally say that the Standard Model of physics "virtually exists." but the Aether Physics Model is completely discrete. In the APM, all physical structures are precisely quantified, and therefore all the physical processes can be understood in terms of discrete movements.

Explained from the perspective of the APM, photons are arriving at a target atom at a given frequency. Only portions of the angular momentum of each photon are absorbed, depending on the distance and magnitude of the photon source. Thus a given "wave packet," which is really a quantity of angular momentum per a given time, has within it (depending upon frequency) more or less angular momentum than a single electron. Thus high frequency wave packets will have more angular momentum than a single electron and may produce more than one electron per wave packet.

The observation that more than one electron can be produced from a high frequency light source is physical evidence strongly supporting the Aether Physics Model interpretation of photons. The APM provides a discrete explanation for the observations of Schaller and Klimov without resorting to mysteries, virtual physics, or any other type of non-sense.

Voyager Evidence of the Existence of Aether

In a recent press release from Binary Research Institute:

"The heliosphere, generated by the Sun, is sort of the cocoon in which the solar system rides. It has been suspected for several years that it is not spherical but more egg shaped. Voyager 1 recently reached one edge and it is estimated it will pass into interstellar space at about 12.4 billion miles from the Sun. It was recently announced that Voyager 2 has reached its more southerly edge, sooner than expected. It is now believed it will reach interstellar space at about 10.5 billion miles. This reveals that the heliosphere is not a sphere after all, but is more of a comet shape.
"According to Cal Tech's Ed Stone, the former director of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and a Voyager chief scientist, the shape of the bubble is determined by what is pressing on the solar system from the outside, meaning the shape and force of interstellar gases. "

Magnetic fields on Earth are not affected by the atomosphere, why would magnetic fields in space be affected by sparsely dispersed gas molecules? The only thing that affects a magnetic field is another magnetic field. Only if the interstellar gases were all magnetically aligned could they produce a net magnetic field that would interfere with the Sun's magnetic field.

"That is one explanation. Another put forth by Walter Cruttenden of the Binary
Research Institute is that local gases are fairly uniform and the shape derives
from the trajectory of the solar system through local space..."

The interstellar gases are anything but uniform, at least according to NASA.

The variation in the distance of the leading edge of the Sun's heliosphere is 15% between the two Voyager space probes. That's not the kind of change possible from a few widely scattered gas molecules.

The presence or non-presence of interstellar gases is completely irrelevant to the shape of the Sun's heliosphere (Aether fabric). The most logical explanation is that the Aether (magnetic field) associated with the solar system (namely that of the Sun) is moving through the Aether associated with our galaxy. The Voyager probes are sending us further evidence for the existence of the Aether.

Philosophical Views of the Aether

I have posted a chapter from Secrets of the Aether online on my personal views web site. This chapter from the book is an introduction into some of the philosophical questions the Aether Physics Model may answer. Tonight I also wrote a couple more pages, which are linked from the Science as Religion page. The pages are Seeing Aether and Seeing Through Aether. These two pages are meant to be read in order.

Basically, the Aether is more than just a mathematical model of space-time. It is the very fabric of space-time. Further, there is a strong link between the Aether and the property of emotions, which is quantified in the APM as conductance. According to the hypothesis presented in the theory, conductance is emotion, which is why neuroscientists can directly measure a person's emotions through conductance.

The pages I wrote today give an idea about the practical applications of an Aether theory in spiritual development. Understanding the Aether also gives us a tremendous tool for understanding the so-called "psychic" phenomena.

One's spiritual life is not separate from one's physical life. The Aether Physics Model shows how they are intimately connected. The APM also shows how physics can help us to find meaning in life.

The reason these pages are on my personal views web site is because they represent exactly that, my personal views. I don't wish to convolute the physical aspects of the theory with the philosophical aspects. Most people studying the APM will be interested only in the objective view of the theory, which means they only want to understand how physical objects are structured and how they work.

Nonetheless, I am interested in discussing the philosophical aspects of the APM with those who are interested. You can either post to softaether@yahoogroups.com or contact me through this blog.

"Trickle Up" Theory of Scientific Recognition

It is difficult working for over four years on a new quantum physics paradigm and encountering so much resistance in the form of professional jealousy and ignorant skepticism. Even though our Aether Physics Model is mathematically correct and based upon the same empirically derived constants of the Standard Model, persons qualified to judge the APM are strangely quiet in being the first to get their feet wet.

We have had many PhD physicists give us private accolades for developing a bold, fresh, and far simpler system of quantum physics. We have even had several individuals, who were bright enough to read and understand the theory, promote it on their own. But it has now come to our attention that India Daily printed an article last August incorporating key elements of our work. Of course, we are flattered, even though we did not receive credit for those key elements. And it does not bother us that UFOs and a new kind of life were thrown in. We have to start somewhere, as even the top of a mountain is reached only after taking the first step at the bottom.

We hope to see more public discussion of the Aether Physics Model as we witness the present increase in search keywords, which are unique to the theory.

Two Types of Charges

A new page has been added to the Aether Physics Model site showing pictures of the two types of charges. It was the observation of the two manifestations of charges in Tesla coil streamers that led to the Aether Physics Model.

The web site has also been overhauled and given a simpler appearance and easier navigation. We'll be doing more to make the Aether Physics Model easier to grasp in the coming weeks.
