A Physical Continuum Theory: Part 1, Gravity

摘要

This paper develops a new theory that deals with the source of gravity. The evidence introduced indicates that gravity originates from quantum motions in a 4-Dimensional (4D) electric scalar potential that permeates the Universe as stationary aether (totally coupled to mass). Local-couplings of mass with this aether raise the base 4D scalar potential of the continuum. The aether couples with mass quanta constituents to develop a flux field via electrostatic resonant fluctuations at Planck length scales. The theory does not originate from preconceived ideas, but rather evolves from a certain gravitational phenomenon, and the attempts to scientifically explain this phenomenon. A stationary aether changes the fundamental notions of particles and forces in quantum mechanics, and provides a new interpretation for the geometric theory of gravity. As covered in Part II, the theory also introduces mechanics for the speed of light, new definitions for mass and for time, and introduces a Universe whereby the Big Bang is just a part of a repeating cycle. Based on this theory (Part II), manipulating time or propelling the space-time to circumvent the speed of light becomes permissible.
