SRM Institute of Science and Technology, India ABSTRACT- A wave, an energy or just a signal, there is a wide confusion on the existence of the “scalar waves”. These waves have some very special characteristicsin terms of their practical use for information and energy technology. In this paper we have explained that these waves are actually the longitudinal waves. In this paper everyderivation whether it is a mathematicalorphysical are supported by the experiments that are done in practical. The final results will show the wirelessly transmission of scalar energy in the form of electricity, the reaction in the receiver by the effect of the transmitter, low input high energy transmission and the incompetency of using Faraday cagefor shielding scalar waves. KEYWORDS- Electrodynamics, Electromagnetic waves, longitudinal waves, Scalar waves, potential. I.INTRODUCTION The Scalar wave which remained unnoticed in the past years are actually very interesting in the practical use. Is that what is discussed in this paper. And how this wave can be used for the wireless electricity transmission. These waves were originally discovered by James Clarke Maxwell, a mathematical genius. But it remained just as a theory only when Nikola Tesla, who was born in Yugoslavia maybe around1856-1857 demonstrated the existence of this form of energy. However, it took another fifty years after Maxwell's Discovery to prove the existence of scalar energy. Still this fact remained questionable and there were doubts in the ability of scalar waves. This is why in this paper we have studied the characteristics of the scalar waves and proved its existence. Listening about scalar waves the first thing that came into mind is that I found that in the Maxwell theory the potential vortex has been put to. Thus I tried to find the answer to what will happen if this vortex would exist.And thus we have found out the results in many examplessuch as our brains, they use these vortex to store the memory, cells use these vortex in factthe DNA also uses this same condition.By the end of our experiment we will be able to prove that there are other wavesthat exist apart from Electromagnetic waves. The wireless transmission of electrical energy as scalar wave radiation takes us backto Nikola Tesla. It was unfortunate that his equipmentwere of very large size and also expensive and this is why we don’t have any copies of that and this is the reason that this indispensable technology remained isolated from the area of vision and the also from the consciousnessof everyone. A new technology will only be understood or accepted by the public only when it is carried to the places where people could study it like the scientific facilities or the educationalcenters. 13195 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue Before getting into this problem in detail, we get to understand between Scalar waves which contains some bits of ordinary electric and the magnetic fields and such waves which don’t and therefore are not very common to see. It is very often that scalar waves are considered as longitudinal waves. But still in ordinary Maxwell equations of electrodynamics such fieldsdo not exist and therefore electromagnetic radiations are always known to be transversal. In modern integrated physics edge in like Einstein-Cartan-Evans theory, however, it was observed that the direction of the polarization of electromagnetic fields do exist in every direction of four- dimensional z-space. So, in the direction of the transmission, an indifferent electromagnetic wave has a magnetic component which is longitudinal, which is also called the Evan’s field. This field can be detectedby the so called inverse Faraday effects which is known since 1960. II. EXISTING WORK There were some experimental setups in the past years on scalar waves, the very first example was the Coloradomagnifying transmitter experimentby Sir Nikola Tesla or the experiment doneby Konstantin Meyl , claims to employ these longitudinal components. The experimental setup wereconsidered that itconsistsan extended resonant circuit in which the capacitor spheresbeen placed to the top of the transmitter and also to the receiver side in the same way. An usual capacitor (or ahollow resonator), has a very higherfrequency wave which leads to significant running time effects of the signal this is because the quasi-static electric or magneticfield could be contemplated to be divided into pulses. Thisrepresents nearby-field ofan electromagnetic wave and that can be consideredas longitudinal. For the low frequency, the electric fieldin between the plates of the capacitor, it remainsin a quasi-staticstate and thus longitudinal too. After1890 the inventor Sir Nikola Tesla carried his experimentto the transmitting power by the methods of coupling by both inductive as well as capacitive couplingby using the spark- excited enabled with the radio frequencies, resonating transformers, which is well known as the Tesla coils, it generates higher output of AC voltages. Earlier, he made an attempt to built a wireless system of lighting which was based on nearby-field generated by capacitive and inductive coupling, which was mentioned above, and also conducted a plenty of public demonstrations at which once he got succeeded to lit Geisler tubes and also the incandescent bulbs on a stage. What he found later that he could also increase that distance andlight a lamp using a LC circuit receiver which istuned by the resonance along with the transmitter which is also a LC circuit using resonant inductive coupling. Nikola Tesla wanted to build a commercial product from his findingsby his experimentsand theresonance inductive coupling along with capacitive method it got widely used in power electronics and also currently in use and applied as a short-range wireless electrical power transfersystem. Later, Sir Meyl also came with his theoretical assumptions and experiments to prove the existence of scalar waves. He brought the kind of same experiments as of Tesla but this time the kit was really very small as compared with that of Nikola Tesla, though the setup was same and thus he was able to provethe propagation of the scalar waves. 13196 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue III. PROPOSED WORK We can use the Faraday cage or any other metallic cage for the experiment of scalar waves. The transmitter having the bifilar coil with the elevated capacitor connected through a conductor can be kept inside that Faraday cage. The bifilar coil is energized by the function generator or by any other such supply source. Now another receiver having the same circuitis connected to the loads, which is kept outside. When the supply is on the observation that we see is that the secondary coil is energized and the connected loads starts working. Now this is the important thing to note because if we talk about the Electromagnetic waves,the transverse wave gets reflected by the Faraday cage or other metallic cages but here it is observed that these waves do not get affected by the Faraday cages. Now talking about the scalar waves, the term “scalar” it indicates that these waves has the magnitude but it doesn’t have anydirection. And thus using the bifilar coil the wave generated is a scalar wave because it gets generated when the two Electromagnetic wave traveling in opposite direction to each othercoincide and then a higher amplitude wave is produced and it don't have any particular direction and therefore these waves are known as “scalar” waves For the experiment for the electricity transmission through the scalar waves we can do some modifications in the present adaptations in the experiment. We can set the frequency on the receivers, the devices i.e. the loads which are to be worked by the electricity transferred by the transmitter in the form of scalar waves so that only a limited amount of energy is absorbed by the device according to the limit of its frequency. The other modification can be done is to focus the scalar waves to a particular receiver so that most of the scalar waves can be utilized. This can be done by using magnets of higher strength through which we could bend the scalar waves and make it directed towards the receiver. And thus, this could be a better way for wirelessly transfer of electricity. 13197 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue CIRCUIT DIAGRAM Fig.2- Circuit diagram of the connections Fig.3 - simplified diagram of the experiment of transmission of scalar waves. 13198 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue IV.

EXPLANATION Scalar waves or we can say the electromagnetic longitudinal waveshaving some unconventional and formidable characteristics, could be used fortransfer of electrical energy. They are different from X-rays and gamma rays, their wavelengths are finer than compared to either x-rays or gamma rays. As the name suggests they have the magnitude but can travel in all the directions. As the characteristicof the scalar waves, it do not gets affected by any medium kept in its path. No metal could deviate or effect its path and the energy remains unaffected. By the experiment of wireless transfer of electricity through scalar waves we are able to show that though scalar “energy” is not directional but the scalar “wave” can be directional.

  • Chapter 5 ANGULAR MOMENTUM and ROTATIONS
    Chapter 5 ANGULAR MOMENTUM AND ROTATIONS In classical mechanics the total angular momentum L~ of an isolated system about any …xed point is conserved. The existence of a conserved vector L~ associated with such a system is itself a consequence of the fact that the associated Hamiltonian (or Lagrangian) is invariant under rotations, i.e., if the coordinates and momenta of the entire system are rotated “rigidly” about some point, the energy of the system is unchanged and, more importantly, is the same function of the dynamical variables as it was before the rotation. Such a circumstance would not apply, e.g., to a system lying in an externally imposed gravitational …eld pointing in some speci…c direction. Thus, the invariance of an isolated system under rotations ultimately arises from the fact that, in the absence of external …elds of this sort, space is isotropic; it behaves the same way in all directions. Not surprisingly, therefore, in quantum mechanics the individual Cartesian com- ponents Li of the total angular momentum operator L~ of an isolated system are also constants of the motion. The di¤erent components of L~ are not, however, compatible quantum observables. Indeed, as we will see the operators representing the components of angular momentum along di¤erent directions do not generally commute with one an- other. Thus, the vector operator L~ is not, strictly speaking, an observable, since it does not have a complete basis of eigenstates (which would have to be simultaneous eigenstates of all of its non-commuting components). This lack of commutivity often seems, at …rst encounter, as somewhat of a nuisance but, in fact, it intimately re‡ects the underlying structure of the three dimensional space in which we are immersed, and has its source in the fact that rotations in three dimensions about di¤erent axes do not commute with one another.

I recall him as the man in relativity when I entered Princeton as a graduate student in 1957. One of his most recent students on the staff there at that time was Charlie Misner, who taught a really new, interesting, and, to me, exciting type of relativity class based on then “modern mathematical techniques involving topology, bundle theory, differential forms, etc. Cer- tainly Misner had been influenced by Wheeler to pursue these then cutting-edge topics and begin the re-write of relativity texts that ultimately led to the massive Gravitation or simply “Misner, Thorne, and Wheeler. As I recall (from long! ago) Wheeler was the type to encourage and mentor young people to investigate new ideas, especially mathe- matical, to develop and probe new insights into the physical universe. Wheeler himself remained, I believe, more of a “generalist, relying on experts to provide details and rigorous arguments. Certainly some of the world’s leading mathematical work was being done only a brief hallway walk away from Palmer Physical Laboratory to Fine Hall. Perhaps many are unaware that Bob Dicke had been an undergraduate student of Wheeler’s a few years earlier. It was Wheeler himself who apparently got Bob thinking about the foundations of Einstein’s gravitational theory, in particular, the ever present mysteries of inertia.

Quantum theory of scalar field in de Sitter space-time N. A. CHERNIKOV E. A. TAGIROV Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna, USSR. ABSTRACT. - The quantum theory of scalar field is constructed in the de Sitter spherical world. The field equation in a Riemannian space- time is chosen in the = 0 owing to its confor- . mal invariance for m = 0. In the de Sitter world the conserved quantities are obtained which correspond to isometric and conformal transformations. The Fock representations with the cyclic vector which is invariant under isometries are shown to form an one-parametric family. They are inequi- valent for different values of the parameter. However, its single value is picked out by the requirement for motion to be quasiclassis for large values of square of space momentum.

  • Scalar Wave Transponder
    Konstantin Meyl Scalar wave transponder Field-physical basis for electrically coupled bi- directional far range transponder With the current RFID -Technology the transfer of energy takes place on a chip card by means of longitudinal wave components in close range of the transmitting antenna. Those are scalar waves, which spread towards the electrical or the magnetic field pointer. In the wave equation with reference to the Maxwell field equations, these wave components are set to zero, why only postulated model computations exist, after which the range is limited to the sixth part of the wavelength. A goal of this paper is to create, by consideration of the scalar wave components in the wave equation, the physical conditions for the development of scalar wave transponders which are operable beyond the close range. The energy is transferred with the same carrier wave as the information and not over two separated ways as with RFID systems. Besides the bi-directional signal transmission, the energy transfer in both directions is additionally possible because of the resonant coupling between transmitter and receiver. First far range transponders developed on the basis of the extended field equations are already functional as prototypes. Scalar wave transponder 3 Preface Before the introduction into the topic, the title of the book should be first explained more in detail. A "scalar wave" spreads like every wave directed, but it consists of physical particles or formations, which represent for their part scalar sizes. Therefore the name, which is avoided by some critics or is even disparaged, because of the apparent contradiction in the designation, which makes believe the wave is not directional, which does not apply however.

  • The Velocity and Momentum Four-Vectors
    Physics 171 Fall 2015 The velocity and momentum four-vectors 1. The four-velocity vector The velocity four-vector of a particle is defined by: dxµ U µ = =(γc ; γ~v ) , (1) dτ where xµ = (ct ; ~x) is the four-position vector and dτ is the differential proper time. To derive eq. (1), we must express dτ in terms of dt, where t is the time coordinate. Consider the infinitesimal invariant spacetime separation, 2 2 2 µ ν ds = −c dτ = ηµν dx dx , (2) in a convention where ηµν = diag(−1 , 1 , 1 , 1) . In eq. (2), there is an implicit sum over the repeated indices as dictated by the Einstein summation convention. Dividing by −c2 yields 3 1 c2 − v2 v2 dτ 2 = c2dt2 − dxidxi = dt2 = 1 − dt2 = γ−2dt2 , c2 c2 c2 i=1 ! X i i 2 i i where we have employed the three-velocity v = dx /dt and v ≡ i v v . In the last step we have introduced γ ≡ (1 − v2/c2)−1/2. It follows that P dτ = γ−1 dt . (3) Using eq. (3) and the definition of the three-velocity, ~v = d~x/dt, we easily obtain eq. (1). Note that the squared magnitude of the four-velocity vector, 2 µ ν 2 U ≡ ηµνU U = −c (4) is a Lorentz invariant, which is most easily evaluated in the rest frame of the particle where ~v = 0, in which case U µ = c (1 ; ~0). 2.

  • Quantum Fields in Curved Spacetime
    Quantum fields in curved spacetime June 11, 2014 Abstract We review the theory of quantum fields propagating in an arbitrary, clas- sical, globally hyperbolic spacetime. Our review emphasizes the conceptual issues arising in the formulation of the theory and presents known results in a mathematically precise way. Particular attention is paid to the distribu- tional nature of quantum fields, to their local and covariant character, and to microlocal spectrum conditions satisfied by physically reasonable states. We review the Unruh and Hawking effects for free fields, as well as the be- havior of free fields in deSitter spacetime and FLRW spacetimes with an exponential phase of expansion. We review how nonlinear observables of a free field, such as the stress-energy tensor, are defined, as well as time- ordered-products. The “renormalization ambiguities” involved in the defini- tion of time-ordered products are fully characterized. Interacting fields are then perturbatively constructed. Our main focus is on the theory of a scalar field, but a brief discussion of gauge fields is included. We conclude with a brief discussion of a possible approach towards a nonperturbative formula- tion of quantum field theory in curved spacetime and some remarks on the formulation of quantum gravity. arXiv:1401.2026v2 [gr-qc] 10 Jun 2014 1Universitat¨ Leipzig, Institut fur¨ Theoretische Physik, Bruderstrasse¨ 16, D-04103 Leipzig, FRG 2Enrico Fermi Institute and Department of Physics, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637, USA 1 1 The nature of Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetime Quantum field theory in curved spacetime (QFTCS) is the theory of quantum fields propagating in a background, classical, curved spacetime (M ;g).
