From: spudnik on 18 Mar 2010 20:36 yes, but if we can take the elaborations & more correct formulations of "energy is the mass times the second power of the rate of light," then where do "gravitons" come into it?... anyway, no need to bring "photons" into it, what so ever. > > > How do you know a gravity quanta and a light quanta are not the same? > > > Lots of reasons. > > Fundamental strength of interaction is orders of magnitude different, > > experimentally. > > The two kinds of quanta interact with different classes of matter -- > > there is some matter that interacts via gravity quanta but not with > > light quanta, for example, and this is experimentally confirmed. > > The angular momentum of light quanta is 1xPlanck's constant, and that > > of the gravitational quanta is 2xPlanck's constant. > > The detection methodology for light quanta and gravitational quanta is > > fundamentally different, observationally. > > Light quanta become unified with weak quanta at the 1 TeV scale, and > > gravitational quanta do not, experimentally. thus: every student of relativity knows that the the last 3/4 is much more difficult than the first 3/4; perhaps, because all of matter is "going" at lightspeed, internally, already. not only is there no vacuum, there is therefore no need of an aether; Pascal is dead -- long-live Pascal! > <ttp://fourmilab.to/etexts/einstein/specrel/specrel.pdf> thus: simply reject the picture of "quantum" as a "photon," and go with Young's original essay -- or what ever he called it -- about the noncorpuscularity of lightwaves. second step, pretend that there is no aether; what's left? thus: I don't have audio at this terminal; what is the jist of this "economists's" theory? LaRouche is an ecomist, two, and that doesn't mean that he is correct about "controlled demo/ Cheeny scrounging in the basement." > http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=18188 thus: Young proved, a humdred years after Newton espoused his "theory" of corpuscles, that light is simply waves (in the air, if you will, viz permeability & permitivity); among his proofs was the "two pin-hole experiment" -- 2PHX? -- which gave a loveley moire' pattern on the photographic (silver oxide?) emulsion. (his source of light was another pinhole in the far wall, admitting sunlight, quite coherently !-) --Light: A History! http://wlym.com --Weber's electron, Moon's nucleus! http://www.21stcenturysciencetech.com/

Quanta, as light quanta interacts with all matter. It is a matter of detection of the light quanta. > The angular momentum of light quanta is 1xPlanck's constant, and that > of the gravitational quanta is 2xPlanck's constant. > The detection methodology for light quanta and gravitational quanta is > fundamentally different, observationally. Obviously. We are discussing light and gravity. That doesn't mean the quanta are different. For example, light quanta propagates at 'c' while gravity quanta state is determined by its connections with the matter and the state of the neighboring quanta. Quanta state as determined by its connections with the matter is its state of displacement. The pressure associated with the quanta displaced by a massive object is gravity.

I misinterpreted gravity quanta. I didn't realize you still believed in the absurd nonsense of gravity having something to do with angular momentum. I thought the fact that you said gravity was not the result of gravitons you realized gravity was caused by space filling quanta. I didn't realize you were changing from the concept of gravitons to quanta with angular momentum. When you first mentioned gravity quanta I at least thought you had made it to the point of 'understanding' gravity as space possibly consisting of photons whose state is determined by its connections with the matter. I thought you were too conceptually deficient for even this conceptually and was presently surprised when it seemed you had a least made it to this point. However, now I realize you still not understand gravity is caused by the material of space which is displaced by matter. Even if you refused to label gravity quanta as material at least we would have been able to discuss how the 'quanta' is able to cause gravity. Now that I understand your concept of gravity is caused by gravity quanta with angular momentum I realize you have no idea what causes gravity. The pressure associated with the aether displaced by a massive object is gravity.

Now that I understand your concept of gravity is caused by gravity quanta with angular momentum I realize you have no idea what causes gravity. The pressure associated with the aether displaced by a massive object is gravity. Where I was hoping to get to was to equate quanta with photons. A photon can be considered to be quantum of aether. If a photon is a quantum of aether then space is filled with photons in different states. A photon propagating at 'c' with respect to the neighboring photons (quanta) is light. Photons are displaced by matter. Photons are not at rest when displaced and 'displace back'. The 'displacing back' is the pressure the photons exert towards the matter. The pressure associated with the photons displaced by a massive object is gravity. The above is definitely not my preferred way to describe gravity but I was hoping from a QM perspective you would be able to relate 'quanta' with 'quantum of aether' with photons. |
