33. What is the Essence of this New Theory of Physics?
The two main pillars upon which current physical theory is built are the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. We use a single set of assumptions to derive both of these “pillars”. The assumptions are that an ether gas pervades the atmosphere. The gas particles have a speed distribution which is Maxwell-Boltzmann. For this gas the root mean square velocity is
larger than the mean speed. Stable states of these particles contained within one mean free path exist. These states absorb particles at the mean speed and emit them at the rms speed – developing a large thrust in the process. These particles go into an orbital state to make matter. From this the theory of relativity observables and quantum mechanics arise.
The basic stable assemblages translate at a velocity
and this, of course, is the speed of light “c”. When matter particles are at rest their constituent stable assemblages orbit in circular paths. Their energy then is their mass times the square of the speed of light. Thus
. In order to accelerate a rest particle photon mass is added and the particle mass grows as given by
, where
is the particle mass when moving,
the mass at rest, and
is
. When moving, since the constituent particle always moves at the speed of light, the particle must take a spiral path. The spiral path is an ellipse when viewed from a frame translating with the particle. The ellipse minor axis is paralleled to the velocity vector and thus matter shortens with motion by the factor
, where
is the length when moving and
is the length at rest. The time for an elliptic cycle is longer than for a circular path by the factor
where
is the period when moving and
is the period when at rest. Thus, we have a completely classical explanation for the special relativity observables.
Quantum mechanics likewise comes out simply from this model. The orbiting matter particle constituent moving at the speed of light establishes an undulating inverse square field which develops a potential. Thus we have an almost spherically symmetric wave field with a potential and this is the foundation of quantum mechanics.
