Gravity, an Abstract Essay on Quantum Involvement by Joshua Garrard Traditionally, the wave property is used to describe light.

We are already aware that light can be seen as both a particle and a wave, depending on the way it is measured. The following hypothesis expounds on the same concept, but within a framework that reaches beyond the tangible, as most physicists would agree to be vast and perplexing, quantum physics. Though no significant means of proof is provided within the thesis, the scientist will find the following ideas most relevant due to a sort of elegance that appeals to the rule stating the simplest answer is correct. Of the various problems solved, if this schema or construct, however unfounded it may be makes sense of other related problems in a correlated and mathematically (not yet explored) sound way, it may be of some use to the scientific community. Without further deliberation, I will expound my theory. Gravity is a weak force. Yet, the entire universe is strung together upon its subtle chords. What force underlies this gravity? Is it to be called a wave? Gravity particles have yet to be observed. But this is a false dichotomy. There needn't be any refutation of the gravity wave, as we are embarking on a territory whose very domain is the stuff of flux. You guessed it, quantum probability. Put down your calculators for a minute, though. Let me give you a framework. Hyperstring theory is based on the idea that all matter is composed of vibrations. In a subtle way this reminds one of the wave-particle duality of light. But, have you ever wondered what kind of material becomes a photon? Travelling at the speed of light, we think it may be hard to catch, so we can't measure it or count its protons. This is not exactly the predicament. Recall Einstein's theory of relativity which states that an object accelerated becomes infinitely smaller as it approaches the speed of light. Approximately, a planet could become a single photon when accelerated. This extreme example may not sit well with classical physicists, I think. Neither will the following statement, which will be the most debatable premise of my thesis: All matter exists as we know it in a fraction of its quantum state. A particle's quantum state is determined by its quantum clock, which is determined, in turn by acceleration and deceleration. During the nonmaterial states, particles have no locus, but a probability cloud in intermediary stages. Now that you have woke the neighbors, sit back down and see how these heresies make sense. Consider two particles, A and B. They were born into the universe at the same time, and have experienced the same amounts of acceleration. Therefore, their quantum clocks are in exactly the same state. In another manner of speaking, they are not moving in opposite directions but distantly at rest. We have simplified the plethora of true quantum states to 4 frames. The first is resting within a locus. The second is the first intermediary. The third is its non-local state, and the 4th is of greatest significance. In frames two and four, there is an overlapping of existences or probability clouds as if competing for the same space in which to manifest. While the individual particles may (as in the double-slit experiment) only collapse for the sake of our observation or measurement. Awareness of these non-localities has driven them back into a local state. Between existences, the particles can be said to be half-local, or halfidentityless. At this point there is some adhesion of overlapping probability clouds, much like the newer models of electron orbitals. This adhesion, crossing, splitting of probability clouds is the foundation of the weak force known as gravity.

Consider a planet for particle A, and for B, a satellite. What must happen for B to overcome the force of gravity keeping it in orbit around A? Accelerate. What happens to the frames of B's time relative to A? B's time speeds up relative to A. Therefore, the quantum clocks of A and B are no longer synchronized. They no longer experience a collapse from a non-local state with overlapping probability clouds, and thus the force of gravity is overcome. Thus, acceleration can break orbit. Further, this goes to explain how an orbit can keep an object at a distance for an extended period without gravity pulling it into the body of greater mass. Simply put, orbits are states of synchronization, or rather harmonics, where the crests of gravity waves from both bodies coincide. Or body A's quantum clock moves at a rate double to that of body B. For A one hour is 30 minutes to B, two hours, one hour. So, the ticking is like 4/4 time to 2/4 time in music. With only half of the coinciding probability cloud adhesion, the bodies are neither repelled nor attracted. And, built into this mutual balance is the equation of perpetual motion or relative acceleration, so there is no need to say, Well, what about the force pulling the two bodies apart? The quantum co-location of the objects, which is a mere stepping out of the frame of conventional matter is a fundamental part of the framework of motion. And by this explanation, motion can be thought of as a dimension itself. I will, from time to time revise this theory. All Rights Reserved.
