VACUUM

The Nature of the Vacuum

Quantum field theory (QFT) presumes the vacuum ground state is not completely empty, but seethes with impermanent virtual particles and fields.  There are two theories that describe the behavior and characteristics of the physical vacuum and the ZPE at the atomic or sub-atomic level, the quantum vacuum field:

QED: The quantum electrodynamics (QED) model of charged particles with the electromagnetic field, consistent with special relativity. At the atomic level, the QED model proposes that, because of the high inherent energy density within the vacuum, some of this energy can be temporarily converted to mass.  The QED model maintains that the zero-point energy reveals its existence through the effects of sub-atomic virtual particles.  ZPE permits short-lived particle/antiparticle pairs to form and almost immediately annihilate each other. These particle/antiparticle pairs are called virtual particles.

QED describes mathematically both interactions of light with matter and those of charged particles with one another.  In this model, an atomic particle such as a proton or electron, even when entirely alone in a vacuum at absolute zero, is continually emitting and absorbing these virtual particles from the vacuum -- a virtual particle cloud.  The absorption and emission of these virtual particles also causes the electron's "jitter motion" in a vacuum at absolute zero. As such, this jittering, or Zitterbewegung, as it is officially called, constitutes evidence for the existence of virtual particles and the ZPE of the vacuum.

There is a cloud of virtual particles around the "bare" electron interacting with it. When a full quantum increase in the vacuum energy density occurs, the strength of the charge increases. With a higher charge for the "point-like entity" of the electron, it would be expected that the size of the particle cloud would increase because of stronger vacuum polarization and a more energetic Zitterbewegung.

SED: The somewhat more recent stochastic electro-dynamics SED approach affirms that the ZPE exists as electromagnetic fields or waves whose effects explain the observed phenomena equally well.  SED treats quantum field-particle interactions like classical dynamics. (Puthoff, 1987) In the SED approach, the vacuum at the atomic or sub-atomic level may be considered inherently comprised of a turbulent sea of randomly fluctuating electro-magnetic fields or waves. Stochastic resonance is produced by random stimuli.

These waves exist at all wavelengths and are homogeneous and isotropic at the macro-level, which means they have the same properties uniformly in every direction throughout the whole cosmos.  In the SED explanation, the Zitterbewegung is accounted for by the random fluctuations of the ZPF, or waves, as they impact upon the electron and jiggle it around.

Because light waves are an electromagnetic phenomenon, their motion through space is affected by the electric and magnetic properties of the vacuum, namely the permittivity and permeability.

The effect of vacuum fluctuations on electron coherence is known: the time-varying electromagnetic field produces a time-varying Aharonov-Bohm phase.

The Unified Field: Quest for the Holy Grail

The Copenhagen Interpretation (CI) is the standard model of quantum physics because of its ability to make predictions from a real-world experimental basis.  In this theory, light is both a particle and a wave and so is everything else. Uncertainty rules supreme since we cannot simultaneously calculate both position and velocity of subatomic operators, but only probabilities. 

Other coherent yet flawed theories have been less successful in this and other regards, some being entirely nontestable.  All agree that light is a primary manifestation of the engine of the cosmos. Meanwhile, subatomic factors with many strange properties have proliferated into the “particle zoo.”

Still, the search for undiscovered particles or energies that could point toward unification continues.  Many attempts have been made to fit all observations into one ‘container’ that describes everything from the macro- to the microcosmic, down into the virtualities of subspace.  Abstract models, flawed inventions or approximations are not physical explanations.  Clarity remains elusive and many alternative and idiosyncratic theories have arisen. Theories are often patched up with unnecessary complications.

In the 1960s, Buckminster Fuller proposed a geometric philosophy of a crystalline vacuum based on nature he called Synergetics.  His notions of tensegrity have applications in classical and quantum physics, as well as biophysics.  He described the crystalline vacuum of cosmic space as with the pre-geometrical properties of Cosmic Zero in his model of the Vector Equilibrium Matrix.

The ‘80s ushered in the era of chaos theory, complexity, dynamics and self-organization, which may ultimately play into the final solutions. Every theory is based in certain fundamental assumptions and postulates about how nature works.  They may be coherent within themselves, but not among themselves, which are often mutually exclusive.

Leading contenders in New Physics include the following: Bohm created a holographic concept, Deutsch a variation on Many Worlds (MWI), and Cramer a Transactional Interpretation (TI).  Sarfatti has proposed a postquantum backaction theory. Pitkanin describes a TGY physics based on world sheets. Masreliez suggests a Scale Expanding Cosmos (SEC), with a uniform scale invariant expansion for the whole spacetime manifold of the universe.

Greene is the main proponent of String Theory.  It has lots of popular appeal but many theoretical inconsistencies, including a proliferation of dimensions and multiple solutions. Since it makes no testable predictions, it is accused of being more of a philosophy than a science. But Kanno et al (2002) describe how “quasi-scalar-tensor gravity works as a hologram at low energy in the sense that the bulk geometry can be reconstructed from the solution of quasi-scalar-tensor gravity.”

Witten unified the five solutions of strings in M-Theory.  Still, answers about the true nature of Reality are unlikely to come from a new mathematical model. It should be the other way around: first find what you think might be the solution to a problem, then express it as a mathematical model, then test it.

Nefediev uses QCD (quantum chromodynamics) bubbles to describe properties of the vacuum and propagation of quarks and mesonic states in two- and four-dimensional models.  In QCD the vacuum is full of quark and gluon condensates with negative energy.  Electrogravitics theory (Valone) is a way of modeling gravity as a matter of time with emergent energy science.

Thomas Bearden has generated a great deal of interest in the potential for extracting zero-point energy from the vacuum potential, as originally described by Nikola Tesla and Dirac. Technological applications are rooted in hyperspace, Quantum Field Theory (QFT), and reformulation of electrodynamics.  Most quantum views of space pertain to a fixed instant of time, but Bearden brings [negative] time back into the equation in his experimental models and engineering of the vacuum.

QFT models the fabric of space as tiny oscillating fields interacting with one another, reconciling quantum mechanics with special relativity.  Elementary particles, local excitations of the vacuum, are point-like objects of zero intrinsic size. They appear smeared over a region of space due to quantum effects, but their description is written as mathematical points.  Together, space, time, and energy form a manifold of functional quantum space.

Astrophysicist, Nikolai Kozyrev wrote a dynamic vacuum theory – an aether theory -- in the 1950s.  Haramein-Rauscher (2005) produced a Unified Theory based on differing relative vacuum densities.  Unfortunately, it requires black holes at the center of everything, which is impossible in a scale invariant expanding cosmos. Tiller proposed a vacuum theory for psycho-energetic phenomena, intentionality, and subtle energies. He describes it as a way for more spirit to enter dense matter.

Comings and Miller (2005) have also proposed the void is a plenum in the Creative Physics ether model.  The nature of embodiment is light.  Another viable model of the Bivacuum comes from Kaivarainen. 

The quantum vacuum is a dynamic massless scalar field.  A scalar is a vector characterized by magnitude and time.  Scalar waves (virtual particle flux wave) in the virtual state massless charge flux do not breach the quantum level to become observable, yet they are real.  They are harmonic oscillations of the stress energy tensor of the vacuum. They cross the threshold of manifestation only briefly before they vanish.

In the vacuum state everything is disintegrated, but highly dynamic.  The vacuum is not an emptiness filled with massless charge, rather, it IS identically massless charge (disintegrated dynamicism).  Though no real particles are present, it is a plenum, not an emptiness.  It is also pure, undifferentiated action.

A curious thing has happened along the way to a Theory of Everything, which is that physics is taking a more and more mystical attitude in its descriptors of what remains essentially a great Mystery.  This mystery is compounded when we attempt to apply physics theories to biological organisms, including ourselves – the realm of biophysics.

Cosmic Crystalline Vacuum

Buckminster Fuller spoke in quasi-mystical tones rhapsodizing about his sublime geometries, which bear a suspicious resemblance to zero-point. Jitterbugging Vector Equilibrium Matrix is not structure but a system, the prime nucleated system.  V.E. makes conceptual models of 4th, 5th and 5th dimensional omniexperience possible, using tetrahedroning. A current example of this is CDT theory, a triangular universe of 4-dimensional tetrahedrons

Equilibrium between + and  is Zero.  V.E. is the true zero reference of the energetic mathematics.  It is cosmic zero.

Zero pulsation in the V.E. is a metaphorm of eternity and God: the zero-phase of conceptual integrity inherent in the + and - asymmetries.  V.E. is important because all the nuclear tendencies to implosion and explosion are reversible and always in exact balance.  V.E. is the anywhere, anywhen, eternally regenerative, event inceptioning and evolutionary accomodation that is never seen in any experience.

This metaphorm (V.E.) represents the self's initial real=I-zation both inwardly and outwardly from the beginning of being "betweenness"; maximum inbetweenness.  Push/pull; convergence/divergence; gravity/radiation.

At zero-point, waves pass through waves without interfering with one another.  Vectoral phase or zone of neutral resonance occurs between outwardly pushing wave propagation and inwardly pulling gravitational coherence. Emptiness at the Center: all 4 planes of all 8 tetrahedra are congruent in the four visible planes passing through a common V.E. center, the cosmic terminal condition and nature's most economical lines of energy travel..

The dynamic activity connected with the drive to know, to penetrate, to illumine, culminates in a stillness, silence, cessation of all effort which itself dissolves in the tranquility of total negation. 0 = 2.  It is only by virtue of the fact that it is Naught.  All form and power are latent in the Void. Haramein and Rauscher (2005) have employed this cuboctahdron to model all of creation.

The Crown of Creation

There is a virtual replica (VR) of all matter, including living organisms, in the vacuum. Resonance and oscillation is accompanied by modulation of virtual particle/antiparticle pressure waves.  We come from, are sustained by and are returning to the light of our mass, radiant energy.  It is the mass-free, force-free form that energy takes in space before its interaction with mass creates force.

The most we can say about our so-called physical existence is that we are standing wavefronts in spacetime. To truly live from that place is to identify ultimately with a superluminal massless body of light, the Diamond Body. That is the true nature of the vehicle of our consciousness, our essence.

Virtual particles are the unseen energetic medium, the dynamic energy matrix of the Universe, riddled with virtual pressure waves. Bidirectional EM wavepairs are the hidden scalar potential. These infolded electrodynamics describe subspace or higher dimensions, depending on how you model it mathematically.

Kozyrev described spinning or twisting “torsion fields” and/or “torsion waves” as the spiraling flow of “time energy.  Lt. Col. Tom Bearden, calls them “scalar waves.”  Their spiraling nature is simply an impulse of momentum that travels through the medium of the aether/ZPE/physical vacuum, without electromagnetic qualities.

Torsion fields, like gravity or electromagnetism, are capable of moving from one place to another in the Universe at “superluminal” speeds, meaning that they far exceed the speed of light. An impulse that moves directly through the “fabric of space-time”, travels at super-luminal velocities and is separate from gravity or electromagnetism, is a significant breakthrough in physics – one that demands that a “physical vacuum”, “zero-point energy” or “aether” must really exist.

“Once we establish that all force fields such as gravity and electromagnetism are simply different forms of aether/ZPE in motion, then we have an active source for gravity and a straightforward reason for why it would exist. We see that every molecule in the entire body of a planet must be sustained by an ongoing in-flow of aetheric energy. The same energy that is creating the Earth is also creating and flowing into us. 

Our bodies cannot travel through solid matter, but the current of aetheric energy certainly can – and this is one of the many things that Keely, Tesla, Kozyrev and others demonstrated. A star or planet must continually draw energy from its environment in order to “stay alive.” Kozyrev had made very similar conclusions about our Sun back in the 1950s, concluding that stars acted as “machines that convert the flow of time into heat and light.” (Wilcock)

The active vacuum is active spacetime. The vacuum potential is the pervasive source of all matter/energy or “massergy,” rooted in the cosmic acceleration.  Its first observable manifestion is photonic and biophotonic Light.  A photon is composed of both spatial and time-energy, even though it is massless. The vacuum potential is raw, untranslated spacetime. Massergy (dynamic structure) is rooted in the unfolding time-charged potential of electromagnetic fields.

The pure vacuum potential, without its zero-point fluctuations decomposes into a harmonic set of bidirectional longitudinal EM phase conjugate wave pairs. Thus EM energy flows between the imaginary plane of time domain and manifest 3-space when the four-fold symmetry is broken with any dipolarity or potential, such as logitudinal or scalar (time) polarization of the photon.
