Heim's Quantum Theory

[everman]

I found an interesting report about Heim quantum theory. Interesting read with all of the equations, I've outlined a few interesting points. It's all theoretical and needs more work, but it's fun anyways

The PDF is here.

Page 19 talks about implications for actual space travel, such as total flight time to Mars in 2.5hrs, and 10 light years in 11 days. (page 20)

According to Heim's theory, gravitation, as we
know it, is comprised of three interactions,
namely by gravitons, the postulated gravitophotons,
and by the quintessence particle. (page 6)

It should be noted that HQT complements both
QT and GR, in explaining the nature of elementary
particles as well as their discrete mass
spectrum and life times, based on the basis of a
quantized geometrodynamics (quantized elemental
areas of some 10-70 m2, termed metron
by Heim) in a 12 dimensional space (3 real
and 9 imaginary coordinates).

3.3 Space Flight in Parallel Space

Gravitophoton propulsion takes place in two
phases. In phase one a spacecraft is subject to
acceleration in R4. Covering large interplanetary
or interstellar distances, requires the transition
into parallel space, which is phase two
of the field propulsion system....
As was shown in Chap. 2, an electromagnetic
field can be transformed into a gravitational
like field, producing both negative and positive
gravitophotons from the vacuum. (P 17)

Consequently, Heim has extended four dimensional
spacetime to higher dimensions (additional
imaginary coordinates), constructing a
poly-metric, and assigning all physical interactions
their proper metric. In the subatomic
range, the quantization of spacetime proved to
be necessary. In this way a unified theory was
obtained. In other words, physics is geometry,
and matter is geometry, too.

See the thread titled "hyperdrive".

This is the actual paper which was published and received the award. I have also come across something else that seems to have some similarity:

Time has a geometry just like space has a geometry., so says Professor Mayer at Stanford. I wonder if this has any relation to Heim's idea of parallel dimensions?

That link for Professor Mayer's pdf on Time has geometry is dead. Does anyone have another link to it or have saved it. IF you have saved it please send me a private message so I can give you my email address so you can email the pdf to me.

I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!
Someone else who knows about Dr. Mayer's work! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Honestly, he is a breath of fresh air in the worlds of physics/astrophysics/cosmology...you get the drift.

 

[Eeezee]

I'd love to actually read some of his work, since I hear that no one can reproduce the math. Could he have made errors somewhere? Did he make a bad assumption? What the hell happened?

Yeah, I'd like to actually read some of it

Updated link after Prof. Mayer was summarily dumped from the Stanford site.
His theories about red-shift and space-time could topple Hubble and Hawking AND could tilt the framework of GR.
Dr. Mayer proposes a couple of tests that could prove him wrong...however, what if he is right?
Physics would never be the same if the "holiness" of General Relativity becomes suspect.
I think a lot of Physicists secretly question GR...it certainly is "tested" often enough...and there are without doubt, some anomalies that simply won?t go away.
Imagine, no such thing as "dark matter", no "dark energy", no "sudden" changes in expansions or contractions of the universe!
The universe is quite simply, without beginning and without end.
Imagine The Many Directions of Time - Solving the Cosmology Puzzle.
Imagine Physics without a Big-Bang Theory.

I think it's a load of bull.
