New Theories / Re: What if dark matter is space time fabric?
« on: 26/05/2017 14:50:37 »
The question is, "what if dark matter is space time fabric itself?"

The answer is yes, dark matter is the space time fabric itself..

The reason why the answer is yes is because what physicists mistake for the 'clumpiness' of the dark matter is actually the state of displacement of the superfluid dark matter which fills 'empty' space. The state of displacement of the superfluid dark matter is what is referred to geometrically as curved spacetime.

The reason why the answer is yes is because the geometrical representation of gravity referred to as curved spacetime physically exists in nature as the state of displacement of the superfluid dark matter.

Do you see now? Its speaking of dark matter as being very smoothly distributed, i.e. less clumpy, than we thought. It does not say that its perfectly smooth. Please keep in mind from now on the difference between "smooth" and "smoother."

What physicists mistake for the 'clumpiness' is actually the state of displacement of the superfluid dark matter which fills 'empty' space. The state of displacement of the superfluid dark matter is curved spacetime.

Where did you get that idea from? Dark matter by its very definition is not smoothly distributed. If it were then we wouldn't be able to detect it as causing the light curves in galaxy rotation.

The notion of a 'clumpy' dark matter is beginning to be refuted.

dark matter is smooth, distributed more evenly throughout space than we thought.​

The notion of dark matter as a weakly interacting clump of stuff that travels with the ordinary matter is incorrect. Dark matter is a smoothly distributed superfluid which fills ‘empty’ space that is displaced by ordinary matter.

'Einstein: Ether and Relativity'

if, in fact nothing else whatever were observable than the shape of the space occupied by the water as it varies in time, we should have no ground for the assumption that water consists of movable particles. But all the same we could characterise it as a medium.

If, in fact nothing else whatever were observable than the shape of the space occupied by the [superfluid dark matter] as it varies in time, we should have no ground for the assumption that [superfluid dark matter] consists of [particles which can be individually tracked through time]. But all the same we could characterise it as a medium [that has mass and is displaced by the particles of ordinary matter which exist in it and move through it, causing it to wave].

the state of the [ether] is at every place determined by connections with the matter and the state of the ether in neighbouring places

The state of the [superfluid dark matter] is at every place determined by connections with the [ordinary] matter and the state of the [superfluid dark matter] in neighboring places [which is the state of displacement of the superfluid dark matter]

The superfluid dark matter displaced by the Earth pushing back and exerting pressure toward the Earth is gravity.

What is referred to geometrically as curved spacetime physically exists in nature as the state of displacement of the superfluid dark matter.

The state of displacement of the superfluid dark matter is gravity.

'The Milky Way's dark matter halo appears to be lopsided'

Quote
The emerging picture of the dark matter halo of the Milky Way is dominantly lopsided in nature.

The Milky Way's halo is lopsided due to the ordinary matter in the Milky Way moving through and displacing the superfluid dark matter, analogous to a submarine moving through and displacing the water.

'Offset between dark matter and ordinary matter: evidence from a sample of 38 lensing clusters of galaxies'

Quote
Our data strongly support the idea that the gravitational potential in clusters is mainly due to a non-baryonic fluid, and any exotic field in gravitational theory must resemble that of CDM fields very closely.

The center of the light lensing through the space neighboring the galaxy clusters and the center of the galaxy clusters themselves is offset due to the galaxy clusters moving through and displacing the superfluid dark matter, analogous to submarines moving through and displacing the water.

'NASA's Gravity Probe B Confirms Two Einstein Space-Time Theories'

Imagine the Earth as if it were immersed in honey. As the planet rotates, the honey around it would swirl, and it's the same with space and time

Honey has mass and so does the superfluid dark matter. The swirl is the state of displacement of the superfluid dark matter connected to and neighboring the Earth.

Particles of ordinary matter move through and displace the superfluid dark matter causing it to wave, analogous to a boat moving through and displacing the water causing it to have a bow wave.
