5.7 Quantum Tunnelling and Resonance
Technical words have been invented that seek to hide understanding of Physics. For instance Quantum Tunnelling used to be known as Resonance. The term Resonance leads one to tie the phenomenon into Classical existing ideas, but calling the phenomenon Quantum tunnelling hides the classical connection, and leads many people to not understand it.
Quantum tunnelling is where a particle on one side of a large potential barrier can suddenly seem to get through that impenetrable barrier and appear on the other side of it. Barriers can be such things as potential energy of a nucleus. Working from supposed classical theory dealing with particles, a particle would be unable to acquire the energy to penetrate through such barriers. But in QM a particle can tunnel through a barrier which it does not have sufficient energy to get through if one works from classical particle theory.
One can think of a particle being on one side (call it side A) of a barrier and then suddenly appearing on the other side (side B) , QM says it tunnelled through the barrier without at any time existing in the points between A and B.
According to Physics for the Inquiring Mind, by Eric M Rogers, this Quantum Tunnelling was at one time also known as Resonance, and says " ........ the atomic particle that tunnels unexpectedly into a nucleus as it sails by seems to trade on resonance between its own wavy nature and some natural modes in the nucleus...."
Thinking of the effect as due to Resonance gives a different perspective on Quantum tunnelling, one thinks instead of a particle, but in terms of a wave. The vibrations on one object can travel to a neighbouring object, is what the Resonance Effect is all about, and happens a lot in the world around us. For instance, a singer’s voice if hitting the right frequencies can cause glass to vibrate and shatter.
Thinking again of the particle on side A of the barrier seemingly appearing later on side B, it makes more sense from thinking instead of a ‘particle’ to think of it as a wave. A wave on side A disappearing on side A and creating a wave on side B. In classical wave theory on the everyday scale the wave travels through a medium, extrapolating to the subatomic scale, there would not be anything special there, and the wave would be travelling through a medium: namely what was once called the aether.
So, we have two descriptions of what happens (1) particle and (2) wave. Description (1) is an unnatural way to think about it because it requires a particle to suddenly what is called Quantum Leap between two points without existing in the intermediate points. While description (2) requires something like ‘aether’ which some physicists are in denial about accepting existing, thus trying to force description (1) upon people as the only allowed description.
What we then have is Modern Physicists thinking of the description as Quantum tunnelling of a particle magically jumping from one side of a barrier to another. They have tended to drop calling it a Resonance Effect, which means dropping the wave description of what is happening. In the wave description, it is more obvious that what one is dealing with is classical wave theory.
As corruption has occurred from the original ‘message’ from the founders of QM, (because of the Logical Positivism movement) the description (1) which is minus the ‘aether’ has been imposed as dogma by many physicists, hence stunting the development of physics.
In description (2) it would be more natural to think of a particle as being the amplitude (or peak) of a wave. One cycle of a wave would correspond to one particle, and in the case of such a thing passing through a barrier, it would be like a standing wave of one cycle slowly passing through the barrier and becoming the same standing wave pattern on the other side of the barrier.
When the orbits of electrons was worked out by Thomson, then later by Bohr and others; what it was originally based upon was Boscovich’s theory, where this theory was treating the scenario as being like music. Boscovich’s theory is a Pythagorean theory of physics, and Pythagoras based his description of the universe as being based upon maths and upon musical harmony (the music of the spheres etc.). Within this description one has waves that form into standing patterns around the nucleus, and hence giving the appearance of allowed and forbidden positions around the nucleus.
If Physics had been developed properly then from description (2) then a different emphasis would have been placed on what was really meant by ‘particle’. Thus the QM description (1) of ‘particle’ (1), is a misinterpretation of the proper particle description.
With the continuation of Modern Physics based upon the faulty description of particle, entailing the denial of ‘aether’, the ‘aether’ still gets reinvented. As theorists look for unification with the five or so different versions of 10-D Superstring theory, they introduced an extra 11th dimension, creating what they call M - theory. The M stands for Membrane. This membrane is conceived as connecting everything into one unity. Our universe is conceived as connected to other universes through the membrane. The membrane is just another reinvention of the ‘aether’. It has however, been built up from an unnatural beginning, namely description (1), and description (2) would be far better.
Description (1) in denying ‘aether’ is forced to invent numerous terms such as Quantum Tunnelling, Quantum Leap, Quantum Entanglement etc., to compensate for this denial, whenever the physics of the ‘aether’ puts in an appearance. And when it comes to unifying the physics description across macroscopic scale, microscopic scales etc., the ‘aether’ has to be reintroduced, often as a name change.
In description (2) we can see the effect of what is called Quantum Tunnelling happening all the time in the world around us: vibrations pass from one object to another at a condition we call Resonance; glasses break when a certain sound is made etc.
Werner Heisenberg when he first talks of Quantum Tunnelling calls it Resonance, in his 1926 paper. (Mentioned in The Physical Principles of the Quantum Theory, Werner Heisenberg, p 142.) So, the fault is not with the founders of Modern Physics, but instead with those who decided to reinterpret since then.
What has been hidden by this reinterpretation is the fact that the world/universe follows the Pythagorean description of there being music all around us.
Applying this to Mobile phones: A mobile phone for instance is vibrating at a certain frequency range of electromagnetism, like any other musical device. If we use a mobile phone too near a land-line telephone then we get a horrible noise, which we think of as interference, but what is in part happening here is resonance. Where the phones are transferring their harmonics through Resonance. This is happening at low frequencies and there should be no great effect on health from this. But what happens at low frequencies is also happening at higher frequencies. And in the case of mobile phones, the higher frequency range is within the microwave bandwidth. As the mobile phone market expands, the frequencies are being pushed more and more closer to the microwave end. In the world around us there are many microwave links being used for communication and used for radar. A person using a mobile phone when getting too near one of these microwave devices dotted around the landscape, has the Resonance effect then transmitting those microwaves to him, and thus giving himself a big dose of cancer inducing radiation.
This radiation does not just cause cancer, because what we are talking about is damage to the genetic code. Sometimes that damage can cause cancer, on other times it will cause other damage and create a different illness. Hence this effect causes a wide range of different illnesses, and only certain users of mobile phones are at risk, because of where they use their mobile phone, making the effect seem intermittent and random, because not every user is affected with illness, and not everyone who gets ill gets the same illness. A simple statistical test showing all users get one specific illness does not show up from the data gathered. Also there are many other mechanisms at work now causing illness in our modern environment. Any electrical device such as television, computer etc., could potentially cause the same effect if too near microwave links. We live in an environment with excessive electrical pollution, as well as chemical pollution and Ozone Hole damage etc etc. It is then very hard to definitely connect one part of this pollution causing one specific ailment. And the response of the science community seems to be to ignore, when faced with an environment with numerous sources causing illnesses. This plays right into the hands of entrepreneurs who like as few restrictions on the commodities that they bring out and sell to the general public. They do not want a science community that tells them ‘hold on a minute this new commodity might cause such and such a health problem.’ They much prefer a science community that ignores all the numerous commodities being sold that cause numerous ailments. (see also Mobile Phones.)
Back to the main issue: Boscovich’s theory unifies Relativistic and Quantum ideas. But the theory from Bohr and others, namely Modern Quantum Theory is not unified with Relativity. So, there is some difference between Modern Quantum Theory and Boscovich’s Theory, i.e. Modern Quantum Theory does not adopt all the assumptions of Boscovich’s theory. So, although Boscovich’s theory gave rise to being developed as Modern Quantum Theory, they are NOT the same theory.
Gill says:
"In all departments of physical science progress is so rapid that theories put forward to-day are forgotten tomorrow. In the case of all the great discoveries and theories something remains for all time, even though the originator be forgotten or passed over. when the history of atomic theory is being written, it is right that the part played by Father Roger Boscovich should not be overlooked."
But Boscovich’s theory has been forgotten, it predicted the ‘allowed’ and ‘forbidden’ positions of the electron about the nucleus. Modern Quantum Theory came later and gets credited with this, but was really only predicting in retrospect; after the observations were made, and not before the observations were made.
Boscovich’s Theory is a Unified Pythagorean theory of physics, and the Pythagoreans viewed the universe as obeying the rules of music and number, so it in other words Boscovich’s Theory is a Musical description of the universe. Waves play a very big part in music, and resonance has a very big part to play with waves. Tesla’s physics is based on resonance. So, all is interconnected: Tesla, Boscovich, Pythagoras, Music.
Michael Hayes in his book The Infinite Harmony, also makes the connection that music is the fundamental nature of the universe. He was looking at the work of Francis Crick and James Watson on the DNA molecule and noticed its musical pattern, and then noticed that this pattern was also in the I Ching- a compilation of 64 line signals known as hexagrams from the Chinese Book of Changes written circa 1100 BC by King Wen of the ancient Chou dynasty. He then says:
"..I became convinced that God Himself was a musician. Not only that, in being able to use the inner composition of DNA to draw together the diverse talents of such as Crick and Watson, Pythagoras and King Wen, I began to suspect that, over the centuries, many others have shared the very same conviction." [1]
Boscovich’s perspective is not unique, others have discovered it. Michael Hayes continues:
"Observing the world as I now see it - that is, from a musical perspective - first requires that the reader accept a hypothesis." [2]
He then starts to outline his musical theory for the universe:
"All phenomena, whether physical or metaphysical, owe their very existence in space and time to the harmonious interaction of two fundamental laws." [3]
I am not that much interested in the outlines that Hayes then gives for his musical theory, he admits to acquiring it by intuition. Basically any musician can have a intuitive understanding of music, without consciously understanding what he is doing. Its like the fingers know what they are doing when playing a stringed instrument, and the musician does not need to think what the fingers need to do, he just does it. It is the same for all human activities; when first learning to do a task like ride a bike, drive a car, it is difficult, and then we do the task unconsciously and don’t have to consciously think about it. Musicians have an intuitive understanding of how the universe operates. But if you pointed out that electricity for instance operates by the same rules as they play their music, they would not be able to apply their musical ability to be an electrician. It is an unconscious understanding and not a conscious understanding. If you ask them to think what they are doing, then most often they wouldn’t be able to say what it was.
There are different tone systems, the one based on Pythagoras gives us the Octave system:
"Pythagoras of ancient Greece is considered to have discovered that the tones produced by a string vibrating in two parts with simple length ratios such as 2: 1, 3:2, or 4: 3 sound harmonious." [4]
This musical scales gives us the seven notes: Do, re, mi, fa, so, la, ti; and to make eight notes, the ‘Do’ of the next scale up is added. Looking at nature this way, then one can find these number patterns everywhere, such as in the structure of the Great Pyramid. One can find numbers such as pi, but:
"In his book The Riddle of the Pyramids, Dr Kurt Mendelsohn, a former prize-winning physicist who studied under Planck and Einstein, states that the Egyptians of the Old Kingdom had only a rudimentary knowledge of mathematics and that the formula pi wasn’t know in Egypt even a thousand years after the Great Pyramid was constructed. The pyramid- builders, he insists, discovered the transcendental number pi without trying and without knowing." [5]
In WWII, scientists were placed into a compartmentalisation approach to scientific research, because of national security reasons they were not allowed to communicate with scientists outside of the speciality they were working on. This was to try to keep scientists with no overall picture of any science project that they were working on, so as to prevent them leaking too much information if they were to defect. If they had knowledge of a Unified Theory of physics (a la Boskovic) then they could have worked out all of the details of the projects they were working on, and presented a bigger security risk. Hence giving people personal freedom,
meant that people must not be allowed to know too much, or they could present too big a danger, if they did deviate and go ‘bad’.
9. Logical Positivism and Scientism
Modern Science has been corrupted by a philosophical movement called Logical Positivism, which is not Logical and is not Positive, which led rise to Scientism a pseudo religion that pretends to be a Science. The followers of Scientism, do not realise it is Scientism that theyfollow, and mistake it for Science.
In Unwin Hyman Dictionary of Philosophy, Logical Positivism is described as]
"the doctrine of the Vienna Circle, so called because it recognises only the positive sciences (as against systems of metaphysical speculation) as valid sources of human knowledge, and in this process attends to the logical structure of scientific (that is, acceptable) statements. Thus, the doctrine insists on the empirical approach (Empiricism), in some ways continuing
the tradition that goes back to Locke and Hume. However, the thorough-going rejection ofabstract theorising went too far: theoretical science seemed itself inadmissible."
Science likes to see itself as being Empirical, hence the Logical Positivism Movement tied itself to that, making it seem a Scientific Philosophy upon that matter. But Logical Positivism went too far and rejected Theories that went beyond what was directly provable by Empiricism. This Philosophical Movement which became powerful in the 1920s, the same time as Modern Physics (Relativity and Quantum) were taking hold, started to reject the parts of those theories that were not directly proven by experiment.
It is very unfortunate that this rejection happened, because it was a rejection of ‘Proper Science.’ Physics as started by Galileo and Copernicus, and extended into the Newtonian Research Program, was never anything more than a Working Hypothesis, which culminated in Boscovich’s theory that was predicting phenomenon that was beyond experimental testing when that theory was created. Logical Positivism then sought to destroy that Theory (that connected Relativity and Quantum ideas) as speculation, leaving unconnected pieces of theory. Physicists such as Bohr were working from the Unified Theory of Boscovich, but the Positivists rejected the unified theory, leaving only the bits of that theory which had so far been tested.
12. The Gravity Conspiracy
Boscovich’s Theory where the Forces of Nature are Unified into one force has been suppressed. And then Modern Physics badly defines it words dealing with these forces, so as to hide by word -games the achievements of pioneers such as Townsend Brown into Antigravity.
Modern Physics talks of four forces of Nature: gravity, electromagnetism, weak and strong forces. The weak and strong forces are merely different aspects of the electromagnetic force, thus there are only two forces: gravity and electromagnetism. Einstein was looking for a way to unify these two forces. Now, in Boscovich’s Theory there is only one unified force: where electromagnetism and gravity are merely aspects of that single unified force. That unified force acts as both attractive and repulsive. The artificial way that Modern Physics talks about Forces, hides the true nature of gravity.[/quoto]
The approach to physics by Einstein is to try to unify concepts. His religious heresy means that problems created by humans have to be solved by humans, and there is no Personal God to come to save them. Something that the Judeo - Christian religious Dogma does not want to believe.
The Scientific methodology that arose from the Copernican Revolution led to the Heresy of Spinoza in Religion, mirrored by support in physics by Einstein. The only way to cover up was to change the methodology of Physics, as has been done.
Under the old scientific method in the old philosophy we have unification under Boscovich. (Roger Boscovich had a unified theory of physics, and has been seen as a forerunner of modern physics theory, but the popular account of modern physics unfairly dismisses him.) [22] But the new scientific method does not give us unification. There are many more links that just this, which lead back to a long tradition of other persecuted Heretics. Links that connect to Pythagoras and through him Ancient Wisdom coming from Egypt and beyond.
For the sake of Judeo - Christian Religious Beliefs physics has been corrupted. A major attempt was made to deviate from the approach to physics that underpinned Einstein’s version of physics, because it was the Heresy of Pantheism.
20.1 Pole Shift
Hapggod’s theory of Pole Shift was ignored by the Science Community despite the support of Einstein. This is another example of Cover -Up.
Einstein gave his support to Hapgood’s theory that the Poles have shifted several times in our past. John White in his book Pole Shift, tells us:
"In 1958 Hapgood published the results of the decade long joint inquiry. The Foreword to Earth’s Shifting Crust was written by none other than Albert Einstein. Hapgood and Campbell had approached Einstein in 1954 and found, just as they had heard, that he welcomed new ideas. During the following months, before he died in 1955, Einstein not only gave his reactions to their presentation but also offered suggestions for their further development. ........" [#]
However:
..... Despite the endorsement by Einstein and by Harvard professor of geology Kirtley F Mather, who wrote a Foreword to the British and foreign - language editions of the book, the reception of Earth’s Shifting Crust was, in Hapgood’s phrase to a recent audience, "noteworthy in the negative sense." In other words, he said, "the silence has been deafening. There were very few reviews ... I can say that no crude errors have been found in the work, but it is clear that the basic challenge it presents to accepted geological ideas has been too extreme to be taken up by the Establishment." [#]
20.2 Pole Shift and the Ether
Hapgood’s theory of Pole Shift connects to Ether Physics: physics that the Science Establishment ignores. But which the Secret Agencies use as Psychotronic weapons.
Hapgood’s (and others) theory of Pole Shift was ignored by the Science Community. But if the theory is true then it connects to a different understanding of physics than Modern Physics community adheres to. A physics that enables control of earthquakes, flipping the Earth’s magnetic field and other interesting phenomenon by much easier mechanisms than Modern physicists are led to believe exist. That physics is sometimes called: Etherian physics.
"According to Trevor James Constable, whose book The Cosmic Pulse of Life offers the best introduction to etherian physics, ‘Nobody can speak with precision or accuracy about polar shifts without a knowledge of etherian physics.’" [ #]
Fair enough, but there are a lot of Conspiratorial claims that go along with this physics.
In the book Pole Shift:
"..... The spectre of governmental and military applications of etherian physics is already a reality, according to persistent rumours circulating among researchers of the paranormal. The stories indicate that Soviet researchers have advanced far beyond their Western counterparts in developing technology that functions on psychic or etheric energy. Their creations are formally named psychotronic weapons, although these devices are unlike any weapons seen before because their operation is such a radical breakthrough in parascience." [ #]
"One class of psychotronic, or PT, weapons is based on the pioneering work of Nikola Tesla, the Yugoslavian -born genius who revolutionised the field of electrical technology with his inventions. Early this century, Tesla demonstrated wireless transmission of electricity over 26 mile distance by sending through the ground. Apparently, Soviet scientists have progressed from Tesla’s discoveries to the point where electromagnetic signals can be broadcast through the earth to form standing waves in the earth itself. By triangulating signals from transmitting stations (Riga, Gomel, Semipalatinsk and Novosibirsk), coherent patterns can be set up that, through an effect known as "kindling", are amplified by drawing energy from the core of the planet. The amplified energy in the standing wave can in turn be directed and focused to induce a variety of effects, including earthquakes and appear to naive observers as natural (rather than man-made) phenomena. It is suspected by one researcher that the Iranian earthquake of 1978 may have been created by this means." [#]
And in a lecture delivered on May 5th, 1920, in the University of Leiden, Einstein summarized the lecture by saying:
"Recapitulating, we may say that according to the general theory of relativity space is endowed with physical qualities; in this sense, therefore, there exists an ether. According to the general theory of relativity space without ether is unthinkable; for in such space there not only would be no propagation of light, but also no possibility of existence for standards of space and time (measuring-rods and clocks), nor therefore any space-time intervals in the physical sense. But this ether may not be thought of as endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media, as consisting of parts which may be tracked through time. The idea of motion may not be applied to it." [##]
Well?
