It can stay hidden for ages, but if you see something new, it is already in the 'explosion phase'. Anyhow.. I would like to write something about gravity and maybe you could do something with it. It goes like this: Question: Why do things drop? Or what 'is' actually gravity. Since I wanted to describe matter as kind of standing waves, I assume something called 'bifurcation' to be relevant. That is like branching and reuniting. This could be explained this way: take the left and the right hand in front of you. Than put thumb and forefinger in right angles. Now mimic a 'standing wave' by opening and closing the fingers with some frequency. Now put the hands in an angle to each other, by opening them a bit, than the 'standing wave' would move towards you (down). This is a purely geometric relation. (I hope you'd understand.) So, according to this 'model', gravity is not caused by mass, but by form, because the normals to the Earth point together (in downwards direction). The mass only coincidentally has the same relation, because it has an influence on the curvature of the Earth surface. TH

Imagine the normals to be kind of elastic rods and a piece of matter to be a ring with a number of rods going through. Than the curvature pulls the rods apart and the ring down, while the ring is elastically deformed, too. Than the strength of the rods 'battles' the strength of the ring. Maybe the mass has actually a cubic influence on the strength, but decreasing(!) curvature with higher mass lowers this to a quadratic relation. Higher curvature of smaller structures, would increase the force - as you assume. Something like that, only in very rough terms.. Greetings TH |
