Repulsive Gravitational Force Field Fran De Aquino Copyright © 2013 by Fran De Aquino. All Rights Reserved. A method is proposed in this paper to generate a repulsive gravitational force field, which can strongly repel material particles, while creating a gravitational shielding that can nullify the momentum of incident particles (including photons). By nullifying the momentum of the particles and photons, including in the infrared range, this force field can work as a perfect thermal insulation. This means that, a spacecraft with this force field around it, cannot be affected by any external temperature and, in this way, it can even penetrate (and to exit) the Sun without be damaged or to cause the death of the crew. The repulsive force field can also work as a friction reducer with the atmosphere (between an aeronave and the atmosphere), which allows traveling with very high velocities through the atmosphere without overheating the aeronave. The generation of this force field is based on the reversion and intensification of gravity by electromagnetic means. Key words: Quantum Gravity, Gravitation, Gravity Control, Repulsive Force Field. 1. Introduction 2. Theory The Higgs field equations are [1]: In a previous paper [5] it was shown that, if the weight of a particle in a side of a lamina is μ 1 2 2 r r r ∇μ ∇ϕ a +2 (m0 − f ϕb ϕ b) ϕ a = 0( 1) P= mg g ( g perpendicular to the lamina) then the weight of the same particle, in the other r r Assuming that mass m0 is the gravitational mass side of the lamina is P′ = χ mg g , where m , then we can say that in Higgs field the term g χ = mg m i0 ( mg and mi0 are respectively, the 2 mg < 0 arises from a product of positive and gravitational mass and the inertial mass of the lamina). Only when χ = 1, the weight is equal in negative gravitational masses (m)(− m) = − m2 , g g g both sides of the lamina. The lamina works as a however it is not an imaginary particle. Thus, Gravitational Shielding. This is the Gravitational when the Higgs field is decomposed, the positive Shielding effect. Since P′ =χ P = (χ m) g= m(χ g), gravitational mass is called particle, and g g spontaneous gives origin to the mass; the we can consider that m′g = χ mg or that negative gravitational mass is called “dark g′ = χ g . matter”. The corresponding Goldstone boson is If we take two parallel gravitational (+mg ) +( − mg ) = 0 , which is a symmetry, shieldings, with χ1 and χ 2 respectively, then while the Higgs mechanism is spontaneously the gravitational masses become: m= χ m , broken symmetry. Thus, the existence of the g1 1 g Higgs bosons [2] implies in the existence of mg 2= χ 2 mg 1= χ 1χ 2 mg , and the gravity will positive gravitational mass and negative be given by g= χ g , g= χ g= χ χ g . gravitational mass. 1 1 2 2 1 1 2 On the other hand, the existence of In the case of multiples gravitational shieldings, th negative gravitational mass implies in the with χ1,χ 2, ..., χ n , we can write that, after the n existence of repulsive gravitational force.

However, the quantization of gravity shows that the mgn = χ1χ 2χ 3...χnm g , g n = χ1χ 2χ 3...χn g ( 2) gravitational forces can also be repulsive [3]. Based on this discovery, here we describe a This means that, n superposed gravitational method to generate a repulsive gravitational shieldings with different χ , χ , χ ,…, χ are force field that can strongly repel material 1 2 3 n particles and photons of any frequency. It was equivalent to a single gravitational shielding with developed starting from a process patented in χ = χ1χ 2χ 3...χn .

If the gravity at a side of the GS is gr (gr perpendicular to the χ lamina) then the gravity at the other side of the GS is r r r χg . Thus, in the case of g and g′ (see figure above) the resultant gravity at each side is ′g = χ mm g r r r r + χgg ′ and ′ + χgg , respectively. The extension of the shielding effect, i.e., the distance at which the gravitational shielding effect reach, beyond the gravitational shielding, depends basically of the magnitude of the shielding's surface. Experiments show that, when (b) the shielding's surface is large (a disk with radius Fig. 1 – Plane and Spherical Gravitational a ) the action of the gravitational shielding Shieldings.

  • Genesis Cosmology* Genesis Cosmology Is the Cosmology Model in Agreement with the Interpretive Description of the First Three Da
    Genesis Cosmology* Genesis Cosmology is the cosmology model in agreement with the interpretive description of the first three days in Genesis. Genesis Cosmology is derived from the unified theory that unifies various phenomena in our universe. In Genesis, the first day involves the emergence of the separation of light and darkness from the formless, empty, and dark pre-universe, corresponding to the emergence of the current asymmetrical dual universe of the light universe with light and the dark universe without light from the simple and dark pre-universe in Genesis Cosmology. The light universe is the current observable universe, while the dark universe coexisting with the light universe is first separated from the light universe and later connected with the light universe as dark energy. In Genesis, the second day involves the separation of waters from above and below the expanse, corresponding to the separation of dark matter and baryonic matter from above and below the interface between dark matter and baryonic matter for the formation of galaxies in Genesis Cosmology. In Genesis, the third day involves the separation of sea and land where organisms appeared, corresponding to the separation of interstellar medium and star with planet where organisms were developed in Genesis Cosmology. The unified theory for Genesis Cosmology unifies various phenomena in our observable universe and other universes. In terms of cosmology, our universe starts with the 11-dimensional membrane universe followed by the 10-dimensional string universe and then by the 10-dimensional particle universe, and ends with the asymmetrical dual universe with variable dimensional particle and 4-dimensional particles.

  • Measurement of the Speed of Gravity
    Measurement of the Speed of Gravity Yin Zhu Agriculture Department of Hubei Province, Wuhan, China Abstract From the Liénard-Wiechert potential in both the gravitational field and the electromagnetic field, it is shown that the speed of propagation of the gravitational field (waves) can be tested by comparing the measured speed of gravitational force with the measured speed of Coulomb force. PACS: 04.20.Cv; 04.30.Nk; 04.80.Cc Fomalont and Kopeikin [1] in 2002 claimed that to 20% accuracy they confirmed that the speed of gravity is equal to the speed of light in vacuum. Their work was immediately contradicted by Will [2] and other several physicists. [3-7] Fomalont and Kopeikin [1] accepted that their measurement is not sufficiently accurate to detect terms of order , which can experimentally distinguish Kopeikin interpretation from Will interpretation. Fomalont et al [8] reported their measurements in 2009 and claimed that these measurements are more accurate than the 2002 VLBA experiment [1], but did not point out whether the terms of order have been detected. Within the post-Newtonian framework, several metric theories have studied the radiation and propagation of gravitational waves. [9] For example, in the Rosen bi-metric theory, [10] the difference between the speed of gravity and the speed of light could be tested by comparing the arrival times of a gravitational wave and an electromagnetic wave from the same event: a supernova. Hulse and Taylor [11] showed the indirect evidence for gravitational radiation. However, the gravitational waves themselves have not yet been detected directly. [12] In electrodynamics the speed of electromagnetic waves appears in Maxwell equations as c = √휇0휀0, no such constant appears in any theory of gravity.

  • Newtonian Wormholes
    Newtonian wormholes José P. S. Lemos∗ and Paulo Luz† Centro Multidisciplinar de Astrofísica - CENTRA, Departamento de Física, Instituto Superior Técnico - IST, Universidade de Lisboa - UL, Av. Rovisco Pais 1, 1049-001 Lisboa, Portugal Abstract A wormhole solution in Newtonian gravitation, enhanced through an equation relating the Ricci scalar to the mass density, is presented. The wormhole inhabits a spherically symmetric curved space, with one throat and two asymptotically flat regions. Particle dynamics in this geometry is studied, and the three distinct dynamical radii, namely, the geodesic, circumferential, and curvature radii, appear naturally in the study of circular motion. Generic motion is also analysed. A limiting case, although inconclusive, suggests the possibility of having a Newtonian black hole in a region of finite (nonzero) size. arXiv:1409.3231v1 [gr-qc] 10 Sep 2014 ∗ [email protected] † [email protected] 1 I. INTRODUCTION When many alternative theories to general relativity are being suggested, and the grav- itational field is being theoretically and experimentally put to test, it is interesting to try an alternative to Newton’s gravitation through an unexpected but simple modification of it. The idea is to have Newtonian gravitation, not in flat space, as we are used to, but in curved space. This intriguing possibility has been suggested by Abramowicz [1]. It was noted that Newtonian gravitation in curved space, and the corresponding Newtonian dy- namics in a circle, distinguishes three radii, namely, the geodesic radius (which gives the distance from the center to its perimeter), the circumferential radius (which is given by the perimeter divided by 2π), and the curvature radius (which is Frenet’s radius of curvature of a curve, in this case a circle).

The question arises: can we understand such packings without doing experiments? This is a great challenge to theoretical chemistry. Most work in this direction uses the concept of a force field. This is just the po- tential energy of a collection of atoms as a function of their coordinates. In principle, this energy can be calculated by quantumchemical methods for a free molecule; even for an entire crystal computations are beginning to be feasible. But for nearly all work a parameterized functional form for the energy is necessary. An ab initio force field is derived from the abovementioned calculations on small model systems, which can hopefully be generalized to other related substances. This is a relatively new devel- opment, and most force fields are empirical: they have been developed to reproduce observed properties as well as possible. There exists a number of more or less time- honored force fields: MM3, CHARMM, AMBER, GROMOS, OPLS, DREIDING..

Box 2735, Beijing 100080, China Abstract Three new classes (II-IV) of solutions of the vacuum low energy effective string theory in four dimensions are derived. Wormhole solutions are investigated in those solutions including the class I case both in the Einstein and in the Jordan (string) frame. It turns out that, of the eight classes of solutions investigated (four in the Einstein frame and four in the corresponding string frame), massive Lorentzian traversable wormholes exist in five classes. Nontrivial massless limit exists only in class I Einstein frame solution while none at all exists in the string frame. An investigation of test scalar charge motion in the class I solution in the two frames is carried out by using the Pleba´nski-Sawicki theorem. A curious consequence is that the motion around the extremal zero (Keplerian) mass configuration leads, as a result of scalar-scalar interaction, to a new hypothetical “mass” that confines test scalar charges in bound orbits, but does not interact with neutral test particles.

  • Behavior of Gas Reveals the Existence of Antigravity Gaseous Nature More Precisely Described by Gravity-Antigravity Forces
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 29 January 2020 Article Behavior of gas reveals the existence of antigravity Gaseous nature more precisely described by gravity-antigravity forces Chithra K. G. Piyadasa* Electrical and Computer engineering, University of Manitoba, 75, Chancellors Circle, Winnipeg, MB, R3T 5V6, Canada. * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1 204 583 1156 Abstract: The Author’s research series has revealed the existence in nature, of gravitational repulsion force, i,e., antigravity, which is proportional to the content of thermal energy of the particle. Such existence is in addition to the gravitational attraction force, accepted for several hundred years as proportional to mass. Notwithstanding such long acceptance, gravitational attraction acting on matter has totally been neglected in thermodynamic calculations in derivation of the ideal gas law. Both the antigravity force and the gravitational force have to be accommodated in an authentic elucidation of ideal gas behavior. Based on microscopic behavior of air molecules under varying temperature, this paper presents: firstly, the derivation of the mathematical model of gravitational repulsive force in matter; secondly, mathematical remodeling of the gravitational attractive force in matter. Keywords: gravitational attraction, gravitational repulsion, antigravity, intermolecular forces, specific heat, thermal energy, adiabatic and isothermal expansion. 1. Introduction As any new scientific revelation has a bearing on the accepted existing knowledge, some analysis of the ideal gas law becomes expedient. The introduction discusses the most fundamental concepts relating to the ideal gas law and they are recalled in this introduction with fine detail to show how they contradict the observations made in this discussion.

DESCRIPTORS Adult Education; Community Action; Community Involvement; *Force Field Analysis; *Goal Orientation; *Group Discussion; *Group Dynamics; Problem Solving ABSTRACT Force field analysis encourages mambers to examine the probability of reaching agreed-upon goals. It can help groups avoid working toward goals that are unlikely to be reached. In every situation are three forces: forces that encourage maintenance of the status quo or change; driving or helping forces that push toward change; and restraining forces that resist change. In conducting a force field analysis, the discussion leader asks two questions: What forces will help achieve the goal or objective? and What forces will hinder? All ideas are listed. The facilitator asks the group to select two or three important restraining and driving forces that they might be able to alter. Participants are asked to suggest specifically what might be done to change them. Responses are written down. After examining the driving and restraining forces, the group considers the balance between driving and restraining forces. If the group believes forces can be affected enough to create momentum toward the goal,it can realistically pursue the goal. If not, the group may decide to alter the goal or to drop it and pursue others.
