Title: Is there an aether theory suitable as an alternative to BBT/inflation?
Post by: MichaelMD on 15/10/2014 16:01:04
Physics now bases its Big Bang model on an empirical rationale using quantum observational data taken in our earthbound setting. I submit there is an alternative approach they should use instead, namely a rationale based on the likeliest first causal processes in space. Understanding a basic force like gravity must be based on how it originated, and that could not have been in our earthbound type of setting

The likeliest place to start forming a first causal model would be space. -I submit that the origin of the universe involved two substrates: space and units of space. (Had to be "units" because we know that in our world, forces are mediated by units - atoms, photons, etc.)

The likeliest first causal process , then, should have involved units of space, which would have had to be elemental points of space itself. -The logical way to conceptualize this origins-setting in space would be of elemental spatial points oscillating symmetrically with each other and in intimate (contiguous) contact with each other. Eventually, this led to oscillational fatigue, which induced two adjacent points to collapse toward each other in a "Yin and Yang" fashion. Disruption of the perfect symmetry of space then occurred when the point-pair re-equilibrated with the oscillational setting. -Once a single disturbance of perfect symmetry, like this, happened anywhere in space, it would have propagated throughout all of space, producing an aether matrix everywhere, in which the aetheric units were all identical in terms of size scale and other properties, and in touch with each other (contiguous), so that they could transmit energic impulses instantaneously.

"Oscillational fatigue" occurs in metals, but since metallic oscillational fatrigue is a quantum process, it cannot be definitively correlated with this first-causal space setting.

In the first-causal model above, it has to be assumed that resonational "nodes" are produced on these elemental aether units as a result of the first-causal oscillational/vibrational mechanisms involved, to allow then to resonate energically with each other.

With this type of model, a simple theory of gravity results. -The quantum structuring of solid bodies is now viewed by Physics as consisting of quantum units : atoms and subatomic "solid particles." However, with this aether model, the "particles" are actually "particle capacities" made up of vanishingly-smaller elemental aether units. -When two bodies are attrracted gravitationally, then, it would involve resonances between the elemental aether units of each body resonating with the (contiguous) identical aether units in the intervening space between them, producing an attractional pull-effect.

As far as the BBT, a similar forces-model would apply. Recent astronomical observations have revealed that our universe is (surprisingly to BBT/inflation theorists) not isotropic as predicted, but rather it is anisotropic, and the direction of the anisotropy is in a northerly direction, and the movement is accelerating. -This observation would agree with the aether model just outlined, because it indicates our universe is being pulled closer and closer to another comparable cosmic attractor, which would have to be another universe. -This would also be consistent with the known fact that galaxies are observed to collide with each other. -The universal-aether pull-effect just applied for gravity would fit for both these observations.

"The universe was born spinning and continues to do so around a preferred axis"

Our Universe spins around a preferred axis because it is a larger version of a galactic polar jet.

'Mysterious Cosmic 'Dark Flow' Tracked Deeper into Universe'
http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/news/releases/2010/10-023.html

"The clusters appear to be moving along a line extending from our solar system toward Centaurus/Hydra, but the direction of this motion is less certain. Evidence indicates that the clusters are headed outward along this path, away from Earth, but the team cannot yet rule out the opposite flow. "We detect motion along this axis, but right now our data cannot state as strongly as we'd like whether the clusters are coming or going," Kashlinsky said."

The clusters are headed along this path because our Universe is a larger version of a polar jet.

It's not the Big Bang; it's the Big Ongoing.

Dark energy is dark matter continuously emitted into the Universal jet.

I think I'll poke this idea a little by asking an innocent little question:

Could the source of this aether be what science refers to as Dark Energy?
Yes. You've heard of vacuum energy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_energy). It's "an underlying background energy that exists in space throughout the entire Universe". Then see Einstein's Leyden Address (http://www-history.mcs.st-andrews.ac.uk/Extras/Einstein_ether.html) where he talks about space as the aether of general relativity. Then see the quote by Robert Laughlin, Nobel Laureate, here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aether_theories#Quantum_vacuum):

"It is ironic that Einstein's most creative work, the general theory of relativity, should boil down to conceptualizing space as a medium when his original premise [in special relativity] was that no such medium existed [..] The word 'ether' has extremely negative connotations in theoretical physics because of its past association with opposition to relativity. This is unfortunate because, stripped of these connotations, it rather nicely captures the way most physicists actually think about the vacuum. . . . Relativity actually says nothing about the existence or nonexistence of matter pervading the universe, only that any such matter must have relativistic symmetry. [..] It turns out that such matter exists. About the time relativity was becoming accepted, studies of radioactivity began showing that the empty vacuum of space had spectroscopic structure similar to that of ordinary quantum solids and fluids. Subsequent studies with large particle accelerators have now led us to understand that space is more like a piece of window glass than ideal Newtonian emptiness. It is filled with 'stuff' that is normally transparent but can be made visible by hitting it sufficiently hard to knock out a part. The modern concept of the vacuum of space, confirmed every day by experiment, is a relativistic ether. But we do not call it this because it is taboo."

Space of course is dark. Note though that dark energy is said to be responsible for the accelerating expansion of space rather than just the expansion of space, but there's a problem with that in terms of conservation of energy.

Allow me to ask another innocent question then:

Are you then suggesting that Dark Energy is a universal pressure that is responsible for the phenomenon of gravity instead of mass bending space/time? And that the Mickelson/Morley experiment gave us erroneous results because we didn't recognize Dark Energy? That might possibly explain gravity but how would it explain time dilation? It sounds like you're trying to revive this old theory without considering every detail we have observed over the past several decades.

My take on the Michelson-Morley Experiment's continuing influence on modern theory is that it should be discarded. The MMX was done in 1887, when particle-theory was less advanced than it is now. The basic fault in the MMX was that they used inertial criteria to base their concept of an ether on (trying to detect an "ether wind" effect.) The ether model in my Thread posits a non-inertial type of ether, in which energy, at the etheric level, acts via transmission of energy impulses from etheric unit-to-unit, contiguously

After the MMX result was interpreted as "proving there is no ether," physicists like Einstein started coming up with models for how the world could work without a transmissional ether medium.

Right now, Physics is trying to explain cosmic forces by using earthbound quantum-empirical observational data: quantum mechanics and relativity. These data depend on observing quantum-scale force-units, and their spin, vectors, and so on. This approach is giving an endless stream of dead end models like the Big Bang. -In my Thread, it is proposed that the true basis of energic action is at the etheric level, and involves simple oscillational/vibrationally-acting mechanisms.  Various earth-based data that result in concepts like "dark energy," "curved space gravity," and so on are incorrectly used in trying to understand basic forces.

That's certainly not true. The MMX experiment proved that light doesn't need an either to explain it's motion since the what the MMX experiment did show was that the speed of light was not a function of the velocity of an ether.

But light has a varying velocity when moving through differing gravitational frames where the intensity of the field varies. This is however observer dependent. So the gravitational field itself mimics the effect of an aether. Although this is different in a lot of its aspects to an original aether such as the theories of the past proposed. An aether would not vary its effects on spacetime as the intensity should average throughout spacetime to a constant value. If that makes sense.

Yes and no. I'd say dark energy is a universal pressure that's responsible for the expansion of the universe. But matter/mass is responsible for gravity because it's a concentration of energy which sets up a pressure gradient in the surrounding space. See this depiction (http://scienceblogs.com/startswithabang/files/2012/07/Curved_in_3D.jpg) of a gravitational field? It's back to front. It features tension pulling space inwards. It ought to feature pressure, like the Earth is pushing out on the lattice. But note that it's got to be a pressure gradient. If the pressure is the same everywhere there's no gravity.

And that the Mickelson/Morley experiment gave us erroneous results because we didn't recognize Dark Energy?
I'd say it gave us a null result because of the wave nature of matter.   

That might possibly explain gravity but how would it explain time dilation?
Time dilation is as is. Clocks go slower when they're lower or if you move them fast.

It sounds like you're trying to revive this old theory without considering every detail we have observed over the past several decades.
No. My main point was that Einstein referred to space as aether (http://arxiv.org/find/grp_physics/1/ti:+aether/0/1/0/all/0/1), but most people think he did away with the aether, and they don't get to hear about papers like this http://arxiv.org/abs/1209.0563.

Which is why Einstein talked about space as the aether of general relativity. See his 1920 Leyden Address (http://www-history.mcs.st-andrews.ac.uk/Extras/Einstein_ether.html):

"Recapitulating, we may say that according to the general theory of relativity space is endowed with physical qualities; in this sense, therefore, there exists an ether. According to the general theory of relativity space without ether is unthinkable; for in such space there not only would be no propagation of light, but also no possibility of existence for standards of space and time (measuring-rods and clocks), nor therefore any space-time intervals in the physical sense..."

As for the speed of light, see Baez (http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/SpeedOfLight/speed_of_light.html):

"Einstein talked about the speed of light changing in his new theory.  In his 1920 book "Relativity: the special and general theory" he wrote: "... according to the general theory of relativity, the law of the constancy of the velocity of light in vacuo, which constitutes one of the two fundamental assumptions in the special theory of relativity [...] cannot claim any unlimited validity.  A curvature of rays of light can only take place when the velocity [Einstein means speed here] of propagation of light varies with position."  This difference in speeds is precisely that referred to above by ceiling and floor observers."

Aether has mass. Aether physically occupies three dimensional space. Aether is physically displaced by the particles of matter which exist in it and move through it.

The Milky Way's halo is not a clump of dark matter traveling along with the Milky Way. The Milky Way is moving through and displacing the aether. The Milky Way's halo is the state of displacement of the aether.

The Milky Way's halo is the deformation of spacetime.

What is referred to as the deformation of spacetime is the state of displacement of the aether.

First off there's no such thing as aether (aka ether). Ether, or luminiferous Ether, was the hypothetical substance through which electromagnetic waves travel. As you may know, in 1887, a crucial experiment was performed by Michelson and Edward Morley in an attempt to detect the existence of the ether. The experiment, named the Michelson-Morley experiment in honor of its authors, shocked the scientific community by yielding results which implied the non-existence of ether. This result was later on used by Einstein to refute the existence of the ether and allowed him to develop special relativity without this artificial (and non-existent) constraint. Although whether Einstein knew of the results of these experiments is unknown. He later claimed he knew of them but he may have remembered incorrectly.

Where did you get these notions from?

The MMX looked for an absolutely stationary space the Earth moves through. The aether is not an absolutely stationary space. The aether is displaced by the particles of matter that exist in it and move through it.

Since I started this Thread, I'd like to give my take on critics' remarks, and how I feel this theory of an aether stacks up against the Big Bang model, and Physics' other theories of cosmic forces, which are based on earthbound observations and quantum mechanics/general relativity.

My Aether Model is not pointedly criticized in some of the posts, but instead standard QM/GR concepts are cited, as well as the standard dismissal-out-of-hand of the existence of any kind of aether. My counter argument would be that all the points Physics bases its "no aether" models on, basically come down to the same thing. My model of aether-gravity's contiguity-mechanism has one key totally-game-changing premise. Although aether-gravity lacks empirical evidence, its rationale is logical. -While quantum theory is based on endlessly complex variations of spin, vectors, particle-unit scales, and the like, my aether model claims that gravity is based on simple vibrational resonance of elemental aether units that are all uniform, both in space and in solid bodies. It could be stated briefly as "aether-gravity's contiguity-mechanism."

I actually have a possible field test to emprically detect an aether-effect (by generating an aetheric force-field, and producing a predicted decreased density in material inside the test system.) I got the ideas for the test from an obscure source, but the test would be expensive to do and I don't have a financial backer for it.

There is no such thing as dark matter anchored to matter. Matter moves through and displaces the aether.

What is geometrically referred to as the deformation of spacetime physically exists in nature as the state of displacement of the aether.

Displaced aether pushes back and exerts inward pressure toward matter.

The state of displacement of the aether is gravity.

Would you like to know why it's been dismissed out of hand? Almost every week someone goes to one of the few physics forums claiming to have the correct theory of gravity but doesn't explain what empirical evidence exists which shows why our current theories are inaccurate. I understand that you don't claim our theories are wrong but you don't explain why yours is better. I.e. You wrote there is an alternative approach they should use instead but didn't demonstrate why your approach should be used instead. Then you started using terms which you created. That's a sign of a crackpot.

It's totally illogical to speak of something oscillating without there actually being something which can physically oscillate. 

You then go on to say Eventually, this led to oscillational fatigue, without demonstrating why such a thing could occur. You then went on to claim it would have propagated throughout all of space, producing an aether matrix everywhere, again without demonstrating why it would happen and what such a thing is, i.e. what is this "aether" that you spoke of. Since there's no such thing in mainstream physics you have to define it yourself. If it doesn't correspond to something physical in this universe then it's all a big waste of time.

I'll leave it at that. But know that we as physicists are trained to see these flaws and when we see them we try to correct them. However I learned over 15 years ago that it's a waste of my time.

PmbPhy,

The idea that First cause began with Space is the most logical viewpoint seems intuitively obvious to me, and I'm sure a lot of other people. The rationale behind how original space (not our present space) could have been constituted in a way that could have produced a world that could have produced uniform unit-based forces, and that in turn could have led to our kind of universe, should be, I submit, essential, conceptually, if we are to understand gravitation on the basic level.

One key to the Model I submitted would be that original space was self-compatible, which was what allowed contiguous elemental points of space to oscillate, sympathetically, so that a point-pair could form, via oscillational fatigue. -As I point out, oscillational fatigue is known in our quantized setting. Of course, there is no way to physically simulate the first causal setting. That shouldn't preclude us from trying to rationally conceptualize that setting, though.

PmbPhy:
By "First causal" setting I mean that our universe must have had a preceding setting which was purely primordial, and which had characteristic(s) which could have led to the universe we have now. I submit that that setting had to have been original space. (*Original space" would not exist now, because the self-replicating first causal mechanism produced an aether-filled space.)

By "units," I refer to what Physics views as "particles" or "particle/wave" units (and most recently, "quasiparticles"), but what, in my aether model, is viewed as a system of interacting (resonating) energic "units", at the foundation of which are "elemental" aether units. Larger scale units, such as our familiar quantum-scale atomic and subatomic units, are viewed as made up of the elemental aether units. (It's proposed that the elemental aether units are vibrational and interact with each other resonationally, which is how the larger scale units are formed.) (It's of interest that Physics has recently discovered a new form of energic units called quasi-particles, which appear to be combinations of quantum units like electrons and "clouds" of still-undefined ("nano-scale" type) energic material. The "quasi-particles" have been generated in certain technological materials which were exposed to photonic energy, converting the electrons in the material to another form of energic unit, called a quasi particle. Physicists hope that systems will evolve from this leading to imnproved electronic technologies. -From the standpoint of my aether model, quasi particles would be "etheroidal" units, intermediate in scale between the elemental aether units and quantum-scale units.

I believe, however, an optimal technological system would involve generating a purely-elemental aether-unit system. I have a field test design, as I mentioned above, to try to generate such an energy, but lack the funding it would require.

To continue with your questions, "self compatible" as it would relate to the model of pure, original, Space, refers to my concept of Space at that time having comprised elemental points that were oscillating in perfect symmetry with each other ("shimmering). These points would have been in intimate (contiguous) contact in every conceivable direction.

PmbPhy, when you say "space can't oscillate unless there's a time varying gravitational field present," you're just reverting to quantum mechanics. -I have already given the reasons why my aether model doesn't directly correlate with quantum systems, which operate via spin/vector/variable-energy-unit-scale dynamics. -The aether operates via simple vibrational/resonational dynamics. -So your point about space oscillation doesn't apply here.

Your question "what is oscillating", as it would apply to pure original Space, can only be answered theoretically. -It must have been elemental contiguous points of Space itself, because that is the only possibility for a First causal setting that could have led to our kind of universe.

That is incorrect. That's what general relativity dictates. If you're claiming that it's wrong then you need to explain what it is that's oscillating. Space can't just "oscillate". If it did then you're right back to general relativity.

You've made the mistake that listing reasons somehow proves that you're reasons are correct. That's the furthest thing from the truth. There is a great deal more to physics and science as a whole than that. You have to not only state what you're theory is but you have to state precisely how to measure it by stating its physical consequences. Or as in BBT you have to make predictions based on your theory which can be verified by observations.

PmbPhy,

Your point about my misattributing the theoretic basis for your statement that the present views of Physics (that space can't oscillate unless there is a time varying gravitational field) is correct. I carelessly attributed the source to QM when it should have been attributed to GR.

You continue critiquing my model in the same way, as though you either haven't read my position as to "standard theory versus my aether model", or else you haven't digested what I said. -My position is that QM and GR are inappropriate to cite, because they are based on earthbound observations. Quantum theory is based on energic systems involving spin, vectors, varying particle-capacities, and the like, and, I re-submit, do not correlate with what must have originated the world of forces in space in the very beginning. In my aether model, the origin of forces in space had to do with a simple process of oscillation of contiguous elemental spatial points, which transitioned to oscillational fatigue of a single point-pair, then propagation of a single disturbance all through space, producing a uniform energic aether that acts via simple vibrational resonance. -Therefore, your continuing to try rebutting this model by citing standard concepts from QM/GR gets us nowhere as far as assessing the aether origins model, or my view of aether-gravity as a simple contiguity-mechanism involving elemental aether units.

When you use the standard Physics view of space to debunk my aether model of original space, that comparison is not valid because there is no way to envision original space before the first appearance of the aether's elemental forces. Original space would certainly have differed from our present space.

In raising a point that I fail to offer any kind of empirical test for the aether that makes predictions that can be verified, again, that isn't true, because I mentioned in my posts above that there is a possible field test to detect the aether (the design for which I got from an obscure source), by generating an aether force field, then measuring materials inside the test system for a predicted decrease in densities. -This field test would be expensive to do, I lack the funds to do it myself, and I haven't been able to find a financial backer as yet.

MichaelMD,

Interesting.  This statement:

Quote
When two bodies are attrracted gravitationally, then, it would involve resonances between the elemental aether units of each body resonating with the (contiguous) identical aether units in the intervening space between them, producing an attractional pull-effect.

Any chance you could elaborate a bit?  I'm not easily visualizing how resonating units (aether particles) would create a pull.

Oh, and one other thing.  Brian Greene came to speak at our university about superstring theory.  Wasn't quite what I expected.  If you watch some of the visuals later in this video, you may get the impression that superstring theory is an elaborate version of your aether.

lymond01,

The idea of how elemental aether units act is that they are vibrational. Vibration is directional. -You can think of this in terms of "nodes" which can "loosely lock" onto another elemental aether unit. -Such an effect would produce a bipolarity of the resonant units. The non-interacting end of the units would "retro-generate" a field in space. The idea is that gravity is similar to magnetism. A gravity field would resemble a magnetic field, except that the "electro" component of gravity fields is underfired compared to electromagnetism, due to the great difference between them in terms of distance factors.

Hi, I am new to this site and forums in general, I realize that I don't have as much understanding on these subjects as many of you. I find myself searching many different avenues for answers and came across, you all may already know of him, Gregg Braden. He claims to be a scientist, I haven't found good evidence of his credentials. He claims that the Air Force revisited the MMX experiment and found that it does exist. I don't know if that particular experiment has since been found to be wrong or not. Something else I watched a few years ago, which I could actually wrap my head around, is this. http://aetherforce.com/introducing-the-primer-fields/ There are four or five parts to watch. A question I have, because of my limited experience, is if the Double Slit Experiment claims that matter acts different when observed, how do we know that our other observations can be trusted?
Anyway like I said I am new to all this. If my links don't work or the way I used any information is wrong take it easy on me and I will get it right.
Thanks

I gather you have read my Aether Model for this Thread. -In terms of  my Model of an aether, the double-slit setup uses added electronic (electromagnetrically-active) instrumentation for "observing" what happens at the double slit, and the photonics there, "because we're observing it." However, adding more electromagnetic devices to the setup (in my Model) will change the behavior of the photonic energies, due to the contiguousness of the aether, even from a distance to the side of the double slit. (According to quantum mechanics theory, the added instruments to the sides wouldn't affect energics at the slits. -So my Model would attribute the "difference due to being observed," to the changes that were made, for the aetheric energies all around the setup, and being responsible for a change in the findings "because we observe them."

In your last Post, you questioned exactly how my aether model would explain gravity, and how the field-dynamics are explained. -In my Model, gravity and electromagnetic energy are basically the same process, with gravity's electro- component being "underfired," compared to electromagnetism, due to the great difference between magnetism and gravity in terms of distances involved. -To use as an example, a technical setup of electromagnetism, where a positively-charged pole and a negative pole (cathode and anode) are separated by an electrically-conductive wire, a strong magnetic field is produced as the current flows through the wire. -Quantum theory claims that what is happening is that electrons are flowing through the wire, which produces a magnetic field, but quantum theory has no explanation for just how the field arises in the space around the wire, converging at the two poles. -In my aether model, what is actually happening is that elemental aether energy units are contiguously conducting the energy impulse through the wire (with a concomitant increase of electrons being incidentally generated along the way.) The "magnetic field" merely represents "rebalancing" of electrical forces, in space, contiguously from the wire setup, by identical aether units in the space around the wire, forces that were "unbalanced" in the vicinity of the wire, by sending the electric current through the wire.

In the case of cosmic gravity, of course there is an absence of an artificially-accentuated electrical flow that exists when an electrical current flows through a wire. -However, I submit my belief that a somewhat-analogous setup exists between the two systems (electromagnetic and gravitational.) I believe that with gravitational attraction, there does exist, at the aetheric level (too rarified to be measured with our quantum measurements), a charge-differential at their surfaces, between two gravitationally-attracted bodies which are cosmically located at slightly-energically-different cosmic ambient locations. -This is admittedly theoretical, but very conceivable, within this cosmic type of framework. We just aren't able to measure processes at the aetheric and gravitational scale at present.

Michael, correct me if I am wrong. Like in earlier ether models of Gravity, yours is making assertions without providing relevant mechanics. Is yours theory different than Laplace's model for example?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_gravity

The first attempt to combine a finite gravitational speed with Newton's theory was made by Laplace in 1805. Based on Newton's force law he considered a model in which the gravitational field is defined as a radiation field or fluid. Changes in the motion of the attracting body are transmitted by some sort of waves.[4]

Goeton,

I wouldn't want to put my Model up against that of Laplace or anyone else's. -I think it stands on its own rationale, even without citing the kind of evidence you mention, especially that of "relevant" mechanics. Your points of criticism seem to me to indicate that you haven't fully thought my model through. -In my model, the "mechanics" of classical theories don't apply. My model stands on its rationale of non-mechanical energy that takes place at an elemental aetheric level, via contiguity and vibrational resonance. (I'm not sure if the "mechanics" you were referring to is the mechanics of quantum mechanics, which I discussed in some detail in my posts, or whether you meant an inertial type of mechanics, which would be even less relevant to compare to my model. My model is trying to account for basic cosmic forces like Gravity, Time, and Electromagnetism, rather than dealing with larger-scale energy systems that we are more familiar with, "mechanistically."
Title: MMX
Post by: Fussball on 30/11/2014 05:49:47
My take on the Michelson-Morley Experiment's continuing influence on modern theory is that it should be discarded.

Michael, I agree with your take on the MMX. Are you aware that the Theory of Aberration was ignored by Lorentz and Einstein in their analysis of the transverse arm of the MMX considering a stationary ether hypothesis?

According to the Aberration Theory, considering a stationary ether hypothesis, the telescope in the apparatus needs to be tilted by an angle given by tan(90-a) = v/c where a is the aberration angle, (that is the tilting angle of the telescope). The faster the apparatus travels, greater the technician needs to tilt the telescope.

This tilting angle is shown by Michelson in his original diagram. And it looks like he did observe this angle but he claimed it was a second order effect.

See Fig 1 and Fig 2 in the link below.

http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/On_the_Relative_Motion_of_the_Earth_and_the_Luminiferous_Ether

The ray sa is reflected along ab, fig. 2; the angle bab, being equal to the aberration =a, is returned along ba/, (aba/ =2a), and goes to the focus of the telescope, whose direction is unaltered. The transmitted ray goes along ac, is returned along ca/, and is reflected at a/, making ca/e equal 90—a, and therefore still coinciding with the first ray. It may be remarked that the rays ba/ and ca/, do not now meet exactly in the same point a/, though the difference is of the second order;

After the MMX result was interpreted as "proving there is no ether," physicists like Einstein started coming up with models for how the world could work without a transmissional ether medium.

Yes this was an erroneous interpretation since in reality the MMX was never capable of detecting anything measurable. Maxwell wrote in a letter that any terrestrial experiment was incapable of detecting the velocity of our solar system relative to the ether. If you're interested you can read more about the MMX and its history here (http://www.sites.google.com/site/goeton). Please scroll to page #37.
 
-In my Thread, it is proposed that the true basis of energic action is at the etheric level, and involves simple oscillational/vibrationally-acting mechanisms.

Your ideas have some resemblances with my own but my idea uses traditional mechanics to explain how the oscillations might produce a force that we call Gravity. The vibrations you refer to in your posts did not help me understand how they produce Gravity; an all attracting force. If you a longer work where you explain this I will be happy to take a look.

Various earth-based data that result in concepts like "dark energy," "curved space gravity," and so on are incorrectly used in trying to understand basic forces.

I agree with you here. But dark energy might be your ether. And curved space gravity is to me simply a fantastic assertion without relevant mechanics. For example: Why does space curve? How does it curve? What relevant mechanics causes this curving? Without these answers, one is left with an assertion.

Goeton,

Your discussion of the fine mathematical and optical details in the MMX went over my head, but I still think the rationale for my non-mechanical model of the aether is not relevantly affected by any such mechanical construct, or any constructs based on a "stationary aether.". -You are correct in saying that my E-M/Gravity model does not explain exactly and fully how gravity is mediated by contiguous vibratory elemental-aether units. -In my last Post, I gave an example of how an (artificial, not cosmic) magnetic field is produced in a setup involving a wire and two poles having opposite charges. I submit that this model, which claims that the magnetic field around the wire is produced by elemental aether units in space resonating with identical units in the wire, are "rebalancing" forces in the vicinity of the wire that had been "unbalanced" by passing the current through the wire, makes more sense, than the present "electron-flow" quantum-mechanical model of physics, does. -The same (artificial, wire-transmission) model for magnetic fields can be generally extended to cosmic magnetic fields, but extending it in any detail to cosmic gravity fields would be impossible, because we are unable to detect aether.

Since my model is based on elemental-aether energics, and its non-mechanical, contiguous, vibrational resonance, it would view gravity and gravity fields as being of the same nature as in electromagnetism. However, in view of the vastly-greater distances, and diminished 'electro-" component of gravity (compared to electromagnetism), it's not possible to define exactly how dipoles, generated in elemental aether units, would be oriented, and would resonate, for two solid bodies being attracted gravitationally. Nonetheless, I would submit that differential surface charges should exist between the two bodies that are basically analogous (although not as highly "charged," in sum) to those involved in electromagnetism. I stick to my model for gravity, described as "aether-gravity's simple contiguity-mechanism." -I'm saying that gravity fields exist, but are too diffuse and too aetheric to be detected by us.

Michael, did you read my  (http://www.sites.google.com/site/goeton)work on page 37 and 38? I tried to keep it really simple there. There are only two angles that one needs to consider.

1. The angle of the incoming light ray.
2. The angle of the telescope.

In the MMX, the incoming light ray's angle is 90. The other other angle is the tilting angle of the telescope, given by tan[90-a]=v/c. What confuses you here? I used a Wikipedia diagram to explain Aberration in the context of the MMX.

but I still think the rationale for my non-mechanical model of the aether is not relevantly affected by any such mechanical construct, or any constructs based on a "stationary aether.".
If your model is a stationary ether model, you are essentially giving up the Principle of Relativity. Does your theory use the Principle of Relativity?

but extending it in any detail to cosmic gravity fields would be impossible, because we are unable to detect aether.
You can interpret the MMX's null result, the Aberration Theory, and Dark Matter as evidence for an etheric matter.

Since my model is based on elemental-aether energics, and its non-mechanical, contiguous, vibrational resonance, it would view gravity and gravity fields as being of the same nature as in electromagnetism.
Interesting, idea. My suggestion, although unwarranted perhaps, would be for you to work out a mechanical model than a non-mechanical one. But that's only my suggestion.

Goeton:

I have a general idea of the principles behind the MMX, but I don't have an impetus to start a deep study of its finer details, such as how various optical angles could apply to your "stationary ether" hypothesis, how aberration would be explained, or the like. I could try to understand that, or any of the various other quantum mechanical, or relativity, approaches to the question of ether, in finer detail, but there would be no point to that from my vantage point.  -I consider my Aether-Origin-from-Space model to be the most coherent one and the correct one, and that all the quantum-observational approaches, including your MMX interpretations, are based on local (earthbound, quantized) empirical perspectives, superimposed upon a true, more-subtle, cosmic model, based on vibratory resonance of elemental ether units

You use the term "etheric matter." -I would only ask, what would have been the origin of that kind of matter? (My aether-origin model proposes that the concept of "solid" matter is false, and that original Space (space as it was constituted prior to the first appearance of forces) gave rise to the ether, and that the ether consists of elemental contiguous units, which resonate interactively so that then, the ether comes to also comprise larger resonant units, like atoms, and eventually inertial systems, like our earthbound one, evolve from it, systems that only give the illusion of being made of solid material.

For these reasons, I have no impulse "to work out a mechanical model.'

To answer your last question, I believe Einsteinian Relativity is a false theory. -My previous posts have described the reasons (the false assumptions about the ether underlying the MMX which then led physicists like Einstein to start coming up with models for how the world could work without a medium to transmit forces. -The basic premise for such a model being false, I don't have to go further into it.

Goeton,

You questioned how my non-mechanical ether model would describe how gravity occurs in terms of what is occuring to two bodies being gravitationally attracted. -I can suggest another way of thinking about this that could make it clearer how my model would account for it.

In my model,there are elemental ether forces within the two bodies and in the space between the bodies, and elemental ether units are in constant mutual resonance, are contiguous with each other, and are uniform, or identical, both within and outside the bodies. -The forces pulling the bodies together are the same forces that, within the bodies, hold the bodies together. There is a space between them which lessens the resonance effect outside (between) the bodies compared to the strength of their resonances inside the bodies, but there is also a contiguity (of the elemental ether units) between the bodies, although there is a separation of the bodies in terms of a "space gap.".

Maybe this perspective will clarify my ether/contiguity/gravity model.

Michael, I don't know the answer to that question. All field theories have no answer to that question. I am not a fan of ether myself, and in my work I do away with the need for a medium, because I start with the premise that there were fundamental particles at the beginning, that evolved to become various fields and matter that we observe today. In my work, matter and field are made of the same entity. I just use the mechanics of helixes, to explain the behavior of fields instead of making assertions.

The theory proposed a mechanical explanation for Newton's gravitational force in terms of streams of tiny unseen particles (which Le Sage called ultra-mundane corpuscles) impacting all material objects from all directions. According to this model, any two material bodies partially shield each other from the impinging corpuscles, resulting in a net imbalance in the pressure exerted by the impact of corpuscles on the bodies, tending to drive the bodies together.

Regarding your theory, I would like to concur with the idea that space consists of two stages: space and space units. As to a definition of "space", I would like to suggest that it might best mean "a volume which is occupied by an unpressurized super fluid, and space units." As to a definition of "space units" I would like to suggest that it might best mean "a structure of tubes which contain a pressurized super fluid." As to the structure of the tubes, I would like to suggest that it might best be described as consisting of groups of 120 tetrahedrons which are connected at their corners. within each group and as a group to other such groups.at their corners. One of the consequences of this arrangement would be that each small tetrahedron would be able to form 28 quarks and 28 anti-quarks, if each of the 10 superstrings were to be used to make the edges, 3 superstrings at a time. For lack of time, this variation of your theory will be amplified later.

I will try to address some of the points made in the multiple posts above by describing, in more detail, how my model of the ether would address quantum entanglement, and how that can be correlated with how the model would treat the path of light from a star.
With my Model, so-called quantum entanglement represents radiated packets of etheric energy which have the same vibratory pattern. Elemental ether units are the only actual participants in this phenomenon, with the "connected" quantum units acting as "cooler arms" of a quiet, purring, ether mechanism.
This can be roughly correlated with how light is transmitted from one star region to another. -Starlight, as it leaves one star, is at a high energy level in terms of energy-content of (the mainly-photonic vibratory pattern) its etheric units. (The light beam is  mainly composed of etheric units, with, in this case, part of its very-high energy "transferred" to associated larger units, such as quantum photons.) The star's photonic-patterned transmissions (similarly as in quantum entanglement) preferentially focus on other, similarly-dense, (but identically-patterned in terms of etheric vibration patterns) photonic spatial regions, such as other star systems. Along the way, the light beam traverses less-photonic spatial ether regions, and resonates with less-densely photonic ether units along its pathway. Then, on reaching the vicinity of another star, the distant star's light beam again encounters a very high-energy photonic ether region, which changes its resonational pattern, affecting its transmission, such that the path of the beam can be bent (as in the Einstein/Eddington effect, or "gravitational lensing.")
This example illustrates one of the ways the Ether Model I work with would alternatively interpret some of our existing evidence.

Physics now bases its Big Bang model on an empirical rationale using quantum observational data taken in our earthbound setting. I submit there is an alternative approach they should use instead, namely a rationale based on the likeliest first causal processes in space. Understanding a basic force like gravity must be based on how it originated, and that could not have been in our earthbound type of setting

The likeliest place to start forming a first causal model would be space. -I submit that the origin of the universe involved two substrates: space and units of space. (Had to be "units" because we know that in our world, forces are mediated by units - atoms, photons, etc.)
No, you can't have units of space, you are adding to space and creating an existence that is not a part of infinite void.  You have to take any given point of space, then create zero point energy from nothing. I have researched it down to zero point pressure. it is a miracle and God must be real is my scientific objective conclusion and analysis.

Space can't just "oscillate".
If space were to be a super fluid, then it could be made to oscillate by an oscillating space unit within it. Although space units are thought to be more complex, for the purpose of beginning this reply, they can be described to be a tetrahedron made of tubes which are filled with a pressurized super fluid which can be released through a circular valve in the middle of each tube, which valve is pointed at the center of the tetrahedron. One consequence of this arrangement would be that the unpressurized super fluid, which surrounds all of the space units, would be set into vibration by the tubes which recoiled from the release of pressurized super fluid  through the valves in them. Another consequence would be that the tubes would tend to collapse because the pressurized fluid were released from six segments of them. That is to say that a tetrahedron would momentarily tug on all of its neighbors. Moreover, the smoke rings, which would be in the released super fluid, would collide at the center of the tetrahedron and rebound in a new configuration.  As it so happens, three "super strings" in a tetrahedron are enough to make all twenty-eight (28) quarks and twenty-eight (28) antiquarks. One hundred twenty (120) tetrahedrons, arranged in a larger tetrahedron, are enough to account for all possible combinations of ten (10) superstrings, when combined three (3) at a time. Moreover, such a larger tetrahedron is sufficient to account for all other items, such as gluons, etc.Moreover, the larger tetrahedrons are sufficient to account for the "families": of particles. Still further, the tetrahedron arrangement is sufficient to account for the anisotropy of space, as noted by Maurice Allais. Further yet, this arrangement accounts for "dark matter" and "dark energy" by supposing that they are the residual effects, in the super fluid and in the tube structure, of releases of super fluid.at a different time for each set of tetrahedrons, each set consisting only of those tetrahedrons which combine the same set of three (3) super strings. Surely, this tetrahedral model is incomplete, so comments, questions, and suggestions are welcomed.

I did not believe in God before, I do now scientifically and morally.
Although I continue to believe in the god of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, I now realize that he is merely another creation, such as we are, to wit, merely a vibration in the unpressurized super fluid which surrounds the tetrahedral structure of tubes which contain pressurized super fluid, and the vibrations in the structure of tubes, caused by the releases of the pressurized super fluid. As to the extent of space, although I agree that it is infinite in each universe, I also believe that it is being increased in each universe as we speak. Moreover, all of the super fluid and the tubes are merely imaginary, the only real thing being the creator. If we were to say that the super fluid is figuratively similar to "dust", then we could say that the portion, which reads, "From dust thou art, and to dust thou shall return" is correct. Whether that situation includes or precludes resurrection seems debatable. What seems undebatable is that the creator creates to his benefit, which is not always to our benefit. For instance, pain, misery, anguish and death are arguably not to our benefit; but certainly provide drama to and for the creator. Although it seems debatable whether the creator is cruel, or merely a Drama Queen, it seems undeniable that the creator does not hesitate to inflict the most horrible of situations upon us, and that for drama, if not also for sadism.

I believe spactime is the aether. My theory provides for an eternal evolving continuum in place of the Big Bang. It is derived by considering the Hubble Shift to be due to time dilation instead of expansion and has us evolving between two event horizons where time appears to stop: at ~13.9 Gly and the black hole at the center of the galaxy. Black holes then become pathways to universes ad infinitum. The theory is based on a spiritual origin of spacetime based in the awareness of being here. space, and now, time. It can be found here: http://vixra.org/abs/1804.0109, and I discuss aspects of it in the threads here: "What is Space?" and "Is the Hubble Shift due to time dilation?", though I recommend the full paper, which also shows gravity to be an irresistible evolutionary force in time, which is why it only has 1 direction and why it overpowers the other forces so much even though it seems so weak.

I can't single out captcass for using my Thread to present his ether model, because this Thread has seen a number of posts, since it started, giving people's private ideas on the Ether.  -For anyone interested, a more concise and updated version of my Ether Model is given in a more recent Thread of mine, titled "Can an Ether Based Model Better Address Cosmic Physics," which is at Page Two of this Forum.

In my Thread's title, by saying "Is There an Ether Theory Suitable as an Alternative to BB Theory and Inflation," I meant that I was presenting my own model of a universal ether, and giving my ideas as to how an ether would have originated, and its dynamics. But quite a few of the posts in the Thread since then have given totally independent models for an ether, without referring at all to the specifics of my ether model in the Thread.

By referring to "Big Bang" in the title, I hoped to elicit responses from quantum theorists, such as "isn't the CMB conclusively proof of the afterglow of a Big Bang," or the like, from quantum theorists, which I could counter from the perspective of my own Ether Model. The other ether models being posted would prevent any chance of that....

No, the other models won’t prevent that.
What will prevent it is that quantum theorists are pretty agnostic to the idea of an ether. The focus is more on fields, and reletivistic fields don’t require an ether, however, if one turned up as underlying the field they wouldn’t reject it. However, it is worth bearing in mind that such an ether would not behave in the way the luminiferous ether was postulated to behave. Currently there is no experimental evidence of anything underlying the relativistic fields.
You might want to look up LET which is a modern, coherent ether theory mostly compatible with relativity.
Discussing your ether theory with the other posters would help to eliminate them as contenders. Recommended.

I am surprised that no-one has mentioned Conrad Ranzan's dynamic steady state universe website.
And Reg Cahill's process physics articles (& Reg is on youtube).
The aetheric cause of gravity gets a good mention (Cahill calls it dynamic space). Aether is annihilated inside mass & aether flows in to replace lost aether, the 3D acceleration of the inflow giving us what we call gravity, & it has a 1/rr relationship.

mad aetherist -   In my model of ether, gravity is explained by using the model of how ether originated.

In my model, the first thing that happened was not a "Big Bang," but rather there was a universal oscillation of space. Eventually, oscillational fatigue of pairs of neighboring oscillating point=localities of space led to their falling together in Yin-Yang fashion. Then, inasmuch as such pairs of elemental point-like units would necessarily have had to reversibly revert to singleton units, they would then have fallen out-of-phase with all the other points that were still oscilating, and this would have broken the perfect symmetry of original, oscillating, space.

In this model, "original" space was free of forces, and oscillated because of its inherent self-compatibility. With this kind of model, the oscillating elemental "point" units would have required tiny adjoining "empty" portions of original space, to provide the necessary "room" for oscillatory motion to occur.

Once the elemental units had transitioned from oscillation to vibration, these tiny portions of space would have remained, and provided the "room" for vibrations to occur. (Energic vibratory resonations between elemental ether units would have begun, as the outward vibrations, having just transitioned from oscillations, of the newly-arising ether units, came into contact with each other.)

As for gravitation, these persisting tiny "empty" portions of space between elemental ether units would have been the main factor to produce gravity. -Inasmuch as, inside a pair of neighboring, gravitationally-attracted, solid bodies, their elemental ether units are at a high state of magnetic energy, due to their resonant connection to the atomic and quantum magnetic forces existing inside the bodies, inasmuch as the larger energy units are made up of the elemental ether units, the elemental units would be at a higher energy level, than would be the elemental ether units  outside the bodies, because in the space outside them, the level of energy is less. However, in the region of space between the bodies, and just outside their surfaces, due to the interactions between elemental ether units inside the two bodies with the adjacent ether units in nearby space, the tiny "empty" spaces between the elemental ether units would be more actively vibrating with each other, compared to elemental units in the spatial regions further  from the bodies. Thus, there would be less "empty" spaces between ether units, resonating with each other, in the "auric" space between the two bodies, than between the ether units outside the bodies in other directions. Thus the two bodies would be gravitationally attracted toward each other, because the ether matrix between the bodies has "contracted."

Are you saying the BBT can be explained better as an initial BB event with your explanation?

Or, are you steady state?

That looks to me to produce expansion not contraction, ie repulsion not attraction.

The basic concept is that the tiny spaces between vibrating elemental ether units is breached, or goes away, at the moment two units contact each other by each unit's outward vibration contacting the other unit's outward vibration ("resonating"). -That would cause a decrease in the overall ether matrix's volume, and cause contraction of the overall matrix between the two solid bodies, relative to the spatial regions outside of this "auric zone" between the bodies, drawing the bodies toward each other gravitationally.

opportunity:   As to your question about BBT vis-a-vis my ether model.

In my origins model based on the evolution of a universal ether out of a preceding universal oscillation of a universal substrate (which had to be original space), the very first thing that happened, in the entirety of universal space, was the oscillation of elemental units, which led to oscillatory fatigue of pairs of neighboring point-localities of space. (Oscillatory fatigue is a process known to science. It occurs in metals.) Then these Yin-Yang connected "points" would necessarily have had to reversibly revert to singleton elemental units, and then they would have fallen out-of-phase with the universal oscillations. That would have broken the perfect symmetry of the oscillatory units, producing a vibratory (rather than oscillatory) ether.

This kind of model doesn't have anything to do with a so-called "Big Bang," which quantum physics presently claims was what started our universe.
