Appendix V (was - Einstein was a wise old elf)
Bill Sheppard wrote: From Painius, replying to Bert: 2) The micro realm *comprises* the macro realm, so when our minds can combine the two, the amount of "space as field" in ratio to condensed areas which manifest as "matter" gives.. Wolter's "dust bunny" description even more impact. Compared with the uncondensed gravitational energy of space, Just to clarify, matter (i.e., its atomic structure) does not represent a condensed (or 'more concentrated') form of space. Rather, matter is the LEAST concentrated, *least* energy-dense form of space, hence the 'dustbunny' moniker. What we perceive as 'matter' is the spatial flow DE-concentrating, DE-pressurizing in its accelerating flow into every atomic nucleus. So ... 'matter' is "the flow of space into matter"??? Matter is the 'venturi effect' of the hyperpressurized SPED _venting_ to that lowest-pressure 'ground state'. The Quack-ers oughta have fun with that. Har. (-: oc |

Appendix V (was - Einstein was a wise old elf)
Bill Sheppard wrote: From Bert: "What if" space flow that gives gravity its push force(pressure) moves at c² (186,242 X 186,242)? OK Bert, just to clarify (again)- ahem- The *rate of flow* into any particular mass is not the same thing as the 'speed of gravity'. The 'speed of gravity' (or speed of gravitational charge), just as Newton originally observed, is instantaneous irrespective of distance and irrespective of the size of the mass(es) involved. Its not instantaneous and yet so very fast that it can never be detected. Well, it's instananeous for all practical purposes, i.e., functionally instantaneous. If this were not so, there would be what's called "aberration of gravity", which would cause the planets' orbits to spiral outward over time. "Aberration argument It is often held, e.g. by Tom Van Flandern, that the speed of gravity must be at least 20 billion times that of light. This argument draws an analogy to the aberration of light, which causes the Sun to appear in a position slightly displaced from its actual position. Introducing a speed of light time delay into Newtonian gravitation would result in unstable planetary orbits. But in general relativity, gravitomagnetism effects cancel out the effects of aberration. The weak stationary field limit of general relativity reproduces Newtonian gravity with instantanous action at a distance, despite the fact that the full theory gives a speed of gravity of c. No current observations are inconsistent with general relativity." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_o...ation_argument Since they do not, and remain stable over billions of years, this proves Newton was correct- that the 'speed of gravity' is functionally instantaneous. (In light of this fact, i dunno why the Wesident waddler keeps harping er, quack-ing er, yip-yapping on the aberration issue.) Its not an infinite speed,and maybe Einstein could live with it. Believe it or not, Einstein believed the 'speed of gravity' to be c. Can you live with it oc? No, nein, nyet. The speed of *gravitational waves* is c. All the Duck's protestations and histrionics notwithstanding, there's a clear-cut distinction between gravity and gravitational waves. The latter DO propagate outward from their source (say a supernova exploding or a binary BH merger). But the *speed of gravity itself* is always functionally instantaneous. Well the graviton has spin 2,and .. 'Gravitons' are needed only under the Void-Space regime. Now, going back to the *rate of flow* into any given mass, it's equal to the escape velocity for that mass. F'rinstance, the Earth's escape velocity is 11.2 km/s (or about 7 mps).. which equals the inflow rate at Earth's surface. Same with any planet, moon or sun. But with a black hole, the inflow velocity and escape velocity both equal c, the speed of light. oc |

oc A BH with the mass density of a billion stars has pushed all photons
to its core faster than the speed of light. Even particles will enter the event horizon at over 99.999999999999999999 of 'c' That fits well with my electron structure theory that comes out of my "Spin is in theory" etc Best to keep in mind oc inside a BH does not have to obey the physical laws of the universe.

Criticize an established theory, and you may never work in science again! Double-A nightbat But that doesn't hold for when you're profoundly right like the Earth Science Team Officers. We are actually the ones point pushing science now forward from their relative and quantum field stalemate. Yes, mainstream science has two great theories, each on implying the other one is wrong! How about that? Haha! Yet they still show great reluctance to consider any new ideas that might help them find a way to slip through the horns of their dilemma! The advanced Space Flow Theory original classic non aether based but the dimension domain of space understanding itself. Stalemates are like bad fish, everyone can't wait for the new formulations to arrive and the old static to be replaced. Remember I was the one who criticized Hawking about zero outlet no real world possibility of BH. Also Remember presently mainstream science advances with each old guard scientist's burial. Yes, it wasn't until all the old nineteenth century classical physics educated professors died out that Einstein's ideas were fully accepted in academia. It is a good thing that physics professors don't live as long as Methuselah, or there would be some still teaching Aristotle's version! Here in alt.astronomy credit is given where credit is due. ponder on, the nightbat Yes, and even aliens are given credit! Double-A And the horse**** continues. |

Db, coming off his latest drunk long enough to "weigh in", recited from
Wiki: ....gravitomagnetism effects cancel out the effects of aberration. The weak stationary field limit of general relativity reproduces Newtonian gravity with instantanous action at a distance, despite the fact that the full theory gives a speed of gravity of c. No current observations are inconsistent with general relativity." So? There's a built-in kludge to make GR agree with Newton on the 'speed of gravity' issue. Big deal. And there is *another* kludge to make it agree with the then-prevalent (circa 1915) belief in a rigid-lattice 'ether'. That's the prediction of gravitational waves to be of transverse polarization, as through a solid. After the 'ether' was abandoned, the transverse-polarization model was grandfathered in unchanged and remains so to this day. But when the spatial medium is recognized *not* as rigid but as a compressible/expansible Fluid amenable to density gradients, gravitational waves are seen to be of _longitudinal_ polarization. They're compression-rarefaction waves exactly analogous to sound waves in air.. and correctly defined as _spatial acoustic pressure waves_, propagating at c. When LIGO and LISA detect their first GWs, it'll be interesting to see the actual polarization. Peripheral issues like the 'speed of gravity' and polarization of GWs did not escape kludgery and fudgery. But the *core issues* of GR, the 'curvature' equations describing gravity, have been proven correct over and over (precession of Mercury's perihelion, gravitational lensing, etc. etc.). BTW, i wonder if db still believes gravity and gravitational waves are one and the same thing. Despite many promptings to clarify, he remains silent on the subject. oc |
