I'm only going to respond once to this silliness. I don't think there's a contradiction -- I know to a certainty that there's a contradiction. The relative states of observer motion determine the measurements of barn and pole. Nothng arbitrary about it, which you would understand if you bothered to learn relativity.

doug,

You claim on your page " ... as mass approaches the speed of light, all that mass is shed and is converted into space."

What you are saying essentially is that space is identical to energy. In Einstein's theory, what actually happens is that a body at relative rest gains mass when accelerated (mass and energy are equivalent) compared to its rest mass. In other words, because the potential energy of a massive body is converted to kinetic energy; a body in motion contains greater inertial mass-energy than the same body at rest.

One of the cornerstones of physics is the law of mass-energy conservation, which your theory violates by creating "more space" (more energy).

Your belief does rub up against a serious question among physicists: "What is the energy content of empty space?" In other words, given mass-energy equivalence, and given that space is not really "empty" but is teeming with virtual particles, can space have energy of its own. Current research and calculation suggests that though the energy content of space can vary point to point, the total energy is either zero, or negative (repulsive).

It's hard to tell if you are really serious -- especially with your "Heads I win, tails you lose" challenge to skeptics. I got a chuckle out of that. :-)

It is not the "relative states of observer motion" which are determining measurements. Apart from anything else, it cannot be. The hypothesis is that objects alter dimension when force is applied. Why this occurred, if indeed it does, was unknown. The observer is an object, and will therefore alter in dimension, just as the pole or anything else does (supposedly). And maybe light, which is what is received to effect an observation, is similarly affected-I do not know. But the point is that the base presumption is that dimension is altered by force. Which, incidentally, causes changing momentum. That being then, an alternative means of identifying such is occurring. Changing monentum is another consequence, not a cause.

Paul

PS: I agree with your point about Pentch's style of 'discussion'

"It is not the 'relative states of observer motion' which are determining measurements."

Yes it is. Your curious notion that "force alters dimension" neglects that length contraction is relative to the rest state.

Hi Tom,

I am in the unfortunate position to be disagreeing with the Great Professor.

Matter, as it travels at higher and higher rates, toward its maximum limit of "c", does not gain mass. It sheds mass into its other manifested energy equivalent, Space. The conversion is:

Equating energy to mass to space

0.02762u = 25.7MeV= 14,952,942.08 pico meters cubed of space

(Mass) = (Energy) = (Space)

This is where the Space of the expanding Universe comes from.

My full rationale for the claim can be found in my theory.

Energy only represents the transition. It is not a fundamental. I view Fundamentals as space, time, and mass. (meters, seconds, grams).

Concerning your note: "One of the cornerstones of physics is the law of mass-energy conservation, which your theory violates by creating "more space" (more energy)." :

It may be recognized that since the mass turns to what you deem "more Space", that energy is conserved. Mass does not increase as it travels faster. What we term mass (the particulate matter of the Standard Model) turns into the Dark Matter and the Dark Energy, as that matter reaches certain percentages of "c" travel. Above all else, CIG does not violate Conservation of Energy laws.

CIG takes the mass-energy equivalency (E=mc2) and combines it with the spacetime continuum. The resultant equation is MTS (see Cig Theory & try to find [Google ?] all my various postings). Matter doesn't warp Spacetime, rather, the Spacetime is actually turning into what we call matter. There is no distinction except "the degree to which thing are".

In one of my postings you will find that I observed the same MTS concept in Einsteins field equation. I belive that CIG was there all the time, and that there is within the Great Professors field equation, the foundation for CIG. Therefore it is a new INTERPRETATION of Einsteins field equation, though discovered independently and through other means than an understanding of his work (because I admittedly lack the thorough even remote understanding). Let me know if you want my ramblings on the link of CIG to the field equations and my ramblings of same.

"Yes it is. Your curious notion that "force alters dimension" neglects that length contraction is relative to the rest state"

But it is not my "notion" ("curious" or otherwise). Neither does the notion "neglect that length contraction is relative to the rest state". That is, by definition, what it is. Obviously, any alteration is always wrt, and in this case the dimension alteration is wrt to the 'rest state or equilibrium'. The presumption being that matter has a 'natural' state (manifest in its dimension) unless subject to differential forces. [Lorentz 1892 para 6: "Indeed, what determines the size and shape of a solid body? Apparently the intensity of molecular forces; any cause that could modify it, could modify the shape and size as well". Later (1904) the mechanism supposedly involved "flattened ellipsoids with their smaller axes in the direction of motion". A notion that had Poincare (July 1905) introducing some compensatory action in response to criticism as to how this could work]. That is, 'rest/equilibrium' is not still, there is movement, but not changing movement. The latter being caused by a differential in force which disturbs the equilibrium, invoking both changing momentum and dimension.

That force was deemed to be gravity. [Einstein 1916 Sr & Gr section 28: "In gravitational fields there are no such things as rigid bodies with Euclidean properties; thus the fictitious rigid body of reference is of no avail in the general theory of relativity].

Dimension alteration was deemed to be a real physical occurrence. [Lorentz 1892 para 3: "Such a change in length of the arms in Michelson's first experiment, and in the size of the stone plate in the second, is really not inconceivable as it seems to me"]. How the concept was derived, whether that derivation was correct, and indeed whether it does actually occur, is irrelevant. This is what was said to occur. The point then being that, in respect of the principle of relativity, one needs to 'watch out' for objects whose momentum is changing. Because something (ie dimension change) is also happening (supposedly) which we did not know about previously. Changing momentum being easier to sense than changing dimension. [Einstein 1916 (Foundation) section 22: "But a glance at (70a) and (69) shows that the expected difference is much too small to be noticeable in the measurement of earth's surface"].

It has nothing to do with observation, light or indeed changing momentum. The latter is just another consequence. But with Poincare's flawed concept of time, and the introduction of the flawed model, spacetime, the original relationship between the variables (whether correct or not) was subverted and confused. The determining factor became seen as revolving around observation and timing. Apart from the fact that this was not the original hypothesis, it cannot be correct anyway. No form of sensing can have any effect on reality, because not only has it already occurred, but what is received to be sensed is not the reality. In terms of measurement, if dimension alteration does occur, then there will be an effect which needs to be accounted for.

In an attempt to re-focus toward the topic of Faster than Light speculation, and its proposed explanation of the Horizon Problem, the following is offered:

Now, if you want to believe in Faster than Light theory that is obviously your choice. However, as far as its interpretation as a viable explanation of the Horizon Problem is concerned, the following is my proposed solution, and which works within the framework of "c" as a maximum limit that need not (cannot) be exceeded.

Foremost, note that there is respectfull disagreement here.

Very well then, my offered solution:

From horizon to horizon, there need not be any "mixing" in order for identical temperatures to be found if those temperatures have been created in an isolated manner unaffiliated with the matter on the opposite horizon. This is exactly what CIG offers.

Particulate matter traveling at the same rate, and regardless of where it travels will unfold into "identical temperatures (spatial field densities with identical energy equivalencies per unit volumes)" . At the speed of light, stellar masses unfold into Space (with its inherent temperature signature) in exactly the same fashion. The volume of Space may be different, since it is mass dependent (the more mass, the more spatial potential), but the temperature will be the same.

Stellar masses unfold into spatial quantities independently from what may be another stellar mass on the opposite horizon, or anywhere else for that instance. They are there own Little Bangs. (this happens on the quantum level too as observed new Bohr orbitals).

Similarly, Dark Matter halos will be at the same temperature no matter where they are found, as long as they represent the same manifested Spatial signature [(i.e. they are the same Spacetime field density)(or, in CIG this represents a varying cosmological constant)(they must travel at the same rate -that is, light must be affected, gravitationally speaking, equivalently, for the rates to be identical)].

Also, again similarly, Black Holes will be found at the same temperature for the same reason, regardless of where they appear in the Universe.

This same philosophy is carried over into the reason that Space is found at the same temperature on both horizons. It is the manner in which traveling mass unfolds into the different spatial field densities, each with identical temperature signatures as long as that mass is traveling at the same rate.

As excerted from CIG Theory:

If the very nature of light (matter) , per MT =S, always manifests itself according to its intrinsic values [To variations of Space (dark matter, dark energy, etc.), based on rate (c or percentages thereof) - and according to CIG Theory, of course], then, even though the distinct opposite ends of the Universe cannot logically correspond (talk) to one another due to their distances exceeding the limts of time, there shall still be an exact match of their temperature. In fact, CIG Theory demands this. CIG Theory offers a reason why the universe is in fact extremely homogeneous. It is based on the very nature of the manisfestation of mass to space. At pure space (the darkest of dark energy), temperatures are identical, and there is no need for communication between two horizons. Each separate side of the Universe is following the same CIG transformation (mathematically no different from the other when mass travels at an identical rate), so of course they will be at the same temperature.

The Horizon Problem states, in part "This presents a serious problem; if the universe had started with even slightly different temperatures in different areas, then there would simply be no way it could have evened itself out to a common temperature by this point in time."

The temperatures are a direct result of the mass to space transformation process. There is no need to "even" anything out. It is inherent to the CIG process. CIG Theory requires it be, because at the rate "C", any entity will manifest itself into the identical Space, no matter what side of the Universe that entity is on.

Therefore, they will be at the exact same temperature. This is the nature of CIG Theory. The same Dark Matter on one horizon will be at the exact same temperature as the same Dark Matter on the opposite Horizon, as its calculations (transformations) are one and the same.

CIG Theory appears to allow for a coherent explanation of the Horizon Problem. In fact, to CIG Theory, it is no problem at all, since CIG would expect that the universe be formed with precisely the same properties everywhere (space for space, dark matter for dark matter, i.e. - the same transformation is only comparable to its like transformation - you cannot compare the temperature of dark matter with dark energy - here the dark matter will be hotter)(by the very nature of the manisfestation itself- the transformation of matter to space). It could also have formed decidedly slower, without an inflationary aspect having to "freeze" in these properties. The properties are inherent to the CIG transformation.

An analogy:

If you bake some bread on one side of the Universe, and you bake some bread on the other side of the Universe, and they taste the same, did the loaves have to talk to each other? CIG Theory says no, because in CIG, we are baking the bread. Current theory says how can the bread taste the same, they must be talking to one another (but they can't, because they exceed the limits of time). Current Theory forgot to bake the bread!

These are just a few thoughts on the Horizon Problem. Please make every effort to understand CIG Theory in this regard.

CIG also explains where the Space comes from for there to be an expanding Universe. Red Shift anomalies, Dark Matter, Dark Energy are all explained.

A thorough understanding of CIG will clear up any confusion surrounding the Double Slit experiment as well.

The speed of light varies with the speed of the observer:

http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0022407388901227

"During his research on acoustics, Doppler in 1842 predicted the effect of the motion of a train on the pitch of its whistle: the pitch increases as the train approaches a station and decreases as it recedes. This Doppler effect was later applied to light, so that if a light source emits waves of period tau when at rest, the number of oscillations that meet a stationary observer during a time interval t is t/tau. But if the observer moves toward the light source with a velocity v, thus covering a distance vt in time t, an additional vt/lambda oscillations will be met (here lambda is the wavelength, and lambda = c(tau), where c is the velocity of propagation). Therefore, altogether, the moving observer encounters t/tau vt/lambda = (t/tau)(1 v/c) oscillations in the time t."

If the observer encounters t/tau vt/lambda oscillations in the time t, then the length of the wave segment covered by the observer in the time t is (c v)t. Accordingly, the speed of the light wave as measured by the observer is c' = c v.

    OK - so there is this outrageous claim that mass turns to space. This claim proposes not simply a re-positioning of Matter within a given Space, but that there exists an actual equivalency among Space and Matter analogous to the Energy to Mass equivalency found in E=mc2.

    Admittedly, this equivalency whereby one atomic mass unit (1u) = 541,380,958.7 pico meters cubed of "new" Space, appears at first glance more than preposterous. Even I am skeptical and it is my theory.

    But, CIG Theory's roots simply wallow in the splendor of relativity and represent the new interpretation of length contraction.

    Philosophically, this mass to space conversion is based on the following rationale:

    "Where there is a different time there must be a different place. Where there is a different place, there is a different space. Where there are different spaces, there are different volumes. CIG theory explains the creation of new volumes of space created as the result of different times imparted onto

    the world universe and as a direct result of the relativistic nature of nature."

    The "different times" mentioned in the above paragraph are those same "different times" that are offered in the concept of time dilation.

    Realistically though, how does the creative process take place? So, just how does mass turn to space?

    Here, I offer only possibilities:

    The particle travels so fast it is both here, and there, and over there, and here, such that the wave function probability is an actuality. The Space becomes. It's collapse back into the "less Spatial, corpuscular particulate form of matter" represents reality when it slows down.

    As a good friend of mine and fellow poster (not imposter) on this site [G from Italy (I'll send you my book if you give me your address)] theorized, the new geometric surface areas manifest themselves in such a way that the new Space is created. Now here I can actually see how the Space may be created. If for instance, to expand on 'G's" offerings, the mass, as it travels faster and faster, unveils so many more geometric sides to itself, so many new three dimensional surface areas, that this may be just the explanation for how mass turns to Space that I was looking for. Most of my theorizing was based on the offering itself and its solutions to all those foundational questions posing the fields of Cosmology and Physics.

    And it is this Space that explains the expanding Universe (I've said that in previous posts).

    And, it puts determinism back into quantum (said that too).

    So, CIG may not be as far fetched as first thought.

      OK - I'll save you the trouble of asking, and here are my "ramblings" about the link of CIG to Einstein field equations that I referenced above. I don't understand the field equations, but looked at them closely enough to compare certain variables in the quation. Please focus on those variables. So, what I stated in the above post is that CIG can be found within the Eistein field equation, according to a new INTERPRETATION. I've explained it below as best I can:

      From the Wiki - Cosmological Constant site:

      The cosmological constant Λ appears in Einstein's modified field equation in the form of

      ADD Field Equation Here as it would not "cut and paste" see Wiki

      where R and g pertain to the structure of spacetime, T pertains to matter and energy (thought of as affecting that structure), and G and c are conversion factors that arise from using traditional units of measurement. When Λ is zero, this reduces to the original field equation of general relativity. When T is zero, the field equation describes empty space (the vacuum).

      The cosmological constant has the same effect as an intrinsic energy density of the vacuum, ρvac (and an associated pressure). In this context it is commonly defined with a proportionality factor of 8π: Λ = 8πρvac, where unit conventions of general relativity are used (otherwise factors of G and c would also appear). It is common to quote values of energy density directly, though still using the name "cosmological constant".

      A positive vacuum energy density resulting from a cosmological constant implies a negative pressure, and vice versa. If the energy density is positive, the associated negative pressure will drive an accelerated expansion of empty space. (See dark energy and cosmic inflation for details.)

      END Wiki

      Enter CIG

      OK - Specifically, where it is stated above, "When T is zero, the field equation describes empty space (the vacuum). & remember, " T pertains to matter and energy (thought of as affecting that structure)"

      this correlates with CIG as follows:

      In CIG, when matter [their T (not mine which states T=Time)] is no longer there, it has transformed into space [MT=S]. It is an interpretation that within the Einstein equation, and where T pertains to matter and energy (thought of as affecting that structure, and where it is also stated that When T is zero, the field equation describes empty space (the vacuum), this all correlates to CIG, whereby it is an active process through which matter manifests itself into the vaccuum. It is stated many times within CIG that this is due to varying rates (% of"c"). Spacetime must be broken.

      How can the speed of observer have any effect on the speed of light. Light is just another physically existent entity, it is not mystical. Leaving aside precisely how it occurs and moves, one can say it is something and it travels. It is received by the observer, and at that point ceases to exist. Another important point is that you keep referring to light, when actually you are referring to different lights. Light results from an interaction, it is a specific physically existent phenomenon. Another light results from the next interaction and the reality under consideration has altered.

      In terms of calibrating speed, then the relative spatial position of the recipient during the travelling of light obviously has an effect. If the calibration is being effected wrt that recipient. But this is self-evident, because any judgement is a comparison, and if the reference is changing then...

      I have said this before, but there is no such thing as space. There is just something (lots of it!), which at every given point time, by virtue of its physical existence, can be said to 'occupy' a specific spatial position. Alteration then occurs (ie there is some existent phenomenon which is causing this) and the next existent state involves 'occupation' of adjacent spatial positions (it cannot 'miss out' potential spatial positions). There is just something, or stuff!!, which alters.

      Hi paul,

      There is something more going on than a mere alteration of positions Your: [ 'occupation' of adjacent spatial positions (it cannot 'miss out' potential spatial positions). ]

      Space is an emergent phenomenom. How does the comminuty explain my "balloon posting"? If you say the particles are moving faster and faster, farther away from each other my reply will be "farther away from what? - we started with a given spatial volume" Now we have more volume INSIDE the balloon. More Space.

      The speed of light varies with the speed of the observer:

      Initially, the source of light is fixed and the observer is fixed as well (the distance between them is constant). The speed of light as measured by the observer is c so in time t ct/(lambda) wavecrests pass the observer. Accordingly, the frequency as measured by the observer is:

      f = c/(lambda) (1)

      Then the observer starts moving towards the source with speed v. This adds another vt/(lambda) to the number of wavecrests hitting (or passing) him in time t - the measured frequency changes accordingly:

      f' = c/(lambda) v/(lambda) = (c v)/(lambda) (2)

      Equations (1) and (2) are acceptable to both relativists and antirelativists - their combination, f' = f(1 v/c), can be found in any textbook. (There is a relativistic correction introducing time dilation but it is negligible when v is low enough.)

      The frequency, wavelength and speed of light the moving observer measures are related in the following way:

      f' = c'/(lambda)' (3)

      Again, a totally inoffensive equation acceptable to anybody. Yet its combination with eq. (2) may evoke concern, even horror, in the relativistic camp. The conclusion c' = (c v) and (lambda)' = (lambda) is inevitable.

      Indeed, alteration can be of many different forms, I just mentioned position, because you were talking about space.

      Space is neither a "phenomenon", nor is it "emergent". There is only 'stuff' (technical word!), and space is just that which is not the stuff under consideration, ie it is some other stuff. The space between two given entities is not space, in the sense that it is existent. It is just 'not the two entities'. It is part of some other entity or entities.

      The calibrated speed does, not the actual speed of light. Obviously. Any calbrated speed depends on the reference deployed. Measuring it does not alter reality! Neither light nor observer are mystical beings. They are both just physically existent enties which are travelling. And if you compare different things you get different results, in terms of measurement.

      Paul,

      But it is the two entities as well, for the entities occupy space.

      You cannot divorce the two:

      Matter has often been described as that which "Occupies space and has mass": The inherent contradiction of this definition is all too apparent unless each is a manifestation of the other. Matter could occupy matter and have no further relationship to space. But as soon as Matter occupies Space, it is by default a manifestation of Space.

      Further, your comment: "The space between two given entities is not space, in the sense that it is existent."

      The comment leads me to believe that perhaps we do not agreee on the definition of space.

      Can someone explain to me where he new greater volume of space comes from in my balloon experiment?

      To CIG Theory and beyond! Now Buzz.....

        "But it is the two entities as well, for the entities occupy space. You cannot divorce the two"

        Not so. There are only things/stuff/something. Space does not exist. The thing does. And in doing so one can conceptualise this as 'occupying space' or it has a 'spatial position', but in terms of physical existence there is just stuff.

        What the property which relates to the phenomenon known as mass is, is another issue.

        Space is just that which is not the entities under consideration. There is no space between me and the monitor. There is something else there, but I am not interested in that something else, just myself and the monitor.

        Hi Paul,

        I'm confused and maybe its because we don't use the same definition of Space.

        If there is no Space between you and the Monitor, then you have become the monitor.

        Regarding your "there is something else there", what are you calling it besides "stuff"?
