But but but. Shouldn't Martin already know that? He *claims* to be a physicist. A

I am more interested in knowing where it does come from for as space increases in volume, the ZPE field should decrease in magnitude and with it the various coupling constants that characterize the strength of interactions between elementary particles. But these have not been observed to change substantively over the last 10 billion years or so, while the volume of space has apparently increased greatly. If so then if the energy content per square cemtimeter has remained the same, where has the additional energy come from? There is some speculation that it is an ongoing process in which energy is leaking in from some alternate universe and that we are part of a larger encompasing set of universes called a multiverse. I think it more likely that the evaporative threshold for the ZPE field decreases over time so that energy is always available for mediating interactions. I am also partial to considering space as static and in which scales of length are constantly contracting to give the illusion of expansion and recession with distance. In any case, one major problem that I have never seen addressed is the issue of the permittivity of free space in a very compact, dense volume. Even with the standard model, as you run it back in time, energy densities increase, altering the permittivity of free space, and slowing the speed of light. As densities go infinite, c goes to zero, and when c is reduced the rate of flow of time is also reduced. So as the universe becomes more compact, it's compactification slows relative to our rate of flow of time. So depending on your defintiion of time, the universe can be both infinite in age or finite. Asking where ZPE comes from therefore depends on ones' defintion of time. If one considers local time, then there is no answer since there is no beginning. Given the constraint that there is no outside to our universe, it seems to me that this is the answer to your question. |
