Just noticed something ... and this may appeal to Mauro Lacy and others who

"Extra Quantum Gravity Term" ... which as I understand it - is based on
one-half alpha, the fine structure constant. It is so small that it can
usually be ignored. Cahill is almost completely ignored, it seems. I never
noticed the ZPE connection before today.
Basically (if I am not posting this in haste) Cahill's term can be related
to ZPE via the epo field. If gravity operates inside a universal Dirac epo
field, then VOILA, there you have it ... not proof of anything but further
indication that zero point must be reckoned with on many levels, including
gravity (Einstein notwithstanding).
To wit: positronium consists of an electron and a positron bound together
sequentially (on a short time frame) as a "seething" virtual atom, the
quantum foam - presumably "located" in "another dimension" whether it be
"the aether" reciprocal space, the zero point field, the sea of negative
energy, or whatever -
... whereas hydrogen consists of an electron and a proton in 3-space, but
there is a great deal of mathematical similarity. The binding energy level
of positronium is 6.8eV whereas for hydrogen it is 13.6eV. The 2:1 ratio is
not coincidental and we can derive alpha from either.
However, an interesting note is that the electron has the same charge in
both cases (presumably). But the mass of the positron is ~1836 times less
than a proton. Does this imply that mass itself has charge which is
proportional to 6.8/1836 (half of alpha)? ... IOW that Cahill was onto
something that goes beyond a correction to gravity? - despite being almost
completely ignored...
I don't know. It can be.
I think that Cahill is right about something: gravity as the in-flow of
space into matter.
You can explain that in-flow as caused by quantum foam pressure, by
increased aether flow into matter, by epo field connections, ZPE
leaking, as a kind of generic hyper-dimensional transfer which causes
space curvature, etc. etc. Even another way to see it, is in relation to
cosmic expansion: gravity as the relative local "slowing down" of cosmic
expansion, due to the presence of matter, as in Gregory Moxness work.
The important and common thing in all these ideas, in my opinion, is
that they point out that to correctly understand something like gravity,
and indeed something like electromagnetic charge and the electromagnetic
field too, higher dimensions must be considered. We must seek models of
physical reality that consider it just as a part of something bigger,
which will be, by its very definition, non-physical in the ordinary
sense, that is, not (yet) expanded or expressed in three spatial
dimensions, and happening at a given velocity, that is, developing or
becoming in time.
Physical reality then, will just be the unfolding or manifestation of
this non-physical energy into the physical realm(spatial dimensions),
according to very specific laws and modes of expression.
This is also related to the discussion about the aether, and in that
sense, I think that it's an important step to restore and reevaluate the
concept of the aether as partly physical. We must seek models of the
aether that consider it partly physical, and partly non-physical. Those
models will necessarily be non-mechanical, and non-classical. In fact,
what was disproved by Michelson - Morley type experiments, was not the
aether, but the idea that the people of that time had about the aether.
In this regard, you might be interested in reading the paper I recently
wrote: "On absolute movement <http://lacy.com.ar/OAM.pdf>". It was sent
to vixra.org for preprint, and I'm now looking to publish it.
The paper is certainly just a draft, and indeed much remains to be done
to improve it and expand it. Maybe it's a good idea to split it in two
different papers, one dealing with the philosophical aspects, and other
with the experimental and technical ones. But anyway, it's a beginning,
and I'm happy to announce it.
Best regards,
Mauro
