SELFPROOF 0602 - LIGHTSPEED
CURRENT PARADIGM
- The SPEED OF LIGHT in vacuum, commonly denoted c, is a universal physical constant important in many areas of physics. Its exact value is 299,792,458 metres per second; it is exact because the length of the metre is defined from this constant and the international standard for time. According to special relativity, c is the maximum speed at which all matter and hence information in the universe can travel. It is the speed at which all massless particles and changes of the associated fields (including light, a type of electromagnetic radiation, and gravitational waves) travel in vacuum. Such particles and waves travel at c regardless of the motion of the source or the inertial reference frame of the observer. In the theory of relativity, c interrelates space and time, and also appears in the famous equation of mass–energy equivalence E = mc2. The speed at which light propagates through transparent materials,
such as glass or air, is less than c; similarly, the speed of radio
waves in wire cables is slower than c. For many practical
purposes, light and other electromagnetic waves will appear to
propagate instantaneously, but for long distances and very sensitive
measurements, their finite speed has noticeable effects. In
communicating with distant space probes,
it can take minutes to hours for a message to get from Earth to the
spacecraft, or vice versa. The light seen from stars left them many
years ago, allowing the study of the history of the universe by looking
at distant objects. The finite speed of light also limits the
theoretical maximum speed of computers, since information must be sent within the computer from chip to chip. The speed of light can be used with time of flight measurements to measure large distances to high precision. (Wikipedia - 02 Apr 2012)
MALTA TEMPLATE
COMMENTARY
Every
blackhole in the Universe is unconsciously engaged in either seeking
stability or maintaining it. A photon is different only in that it
is stabilised within the photonic masses, at lightspeed, and
with its spin and speed in entropic equilibrium. Because of
this, the same multiprocess underway in every blackhole now contrives
to keep a photon moving at lightspeed, and nothing but lightspeed,
even though its measures of mass or energy may alter. Since
its first publication, Special Relativity has been a boon to
physics research but it has also been something of a straitjacket
because some of its assumptions take the form of rules that cannot
be broken. The widespread acceptance of Special Relativity in its
entirety has forced physicists to some bizarre explanations as they try
to avoid breaking the rules. Here are some of the "rules that cannot be
broken" together with their reinterpretation per the Malta Template. - Strictly
speaking, energy has no speed at all. Energy is the kineticenergy, potentialenergy,
or latentenergy of the gravitons in a gravitonpair. It can move in the sense
that gravitonpairs move - although whether this really counts as "energy
moving" is arguable. Gravitonpairs can and do move faster than
lightspeed and while logic suggests there is a limit to their speed
there is currently no indication that such a limit exists.
Thus, if the movement of gravitonpairs is regarded as the movement of
energy, energy can move faster than lightspeed.
- Photons move no faster than lightspeed for mechanical reasons and, likewise, nor do stable objects more
massive than photons. As a general rule,
each type of stable
object more massive than a photon has its own maximum
speed, traveling beyond which will decay the object in some
way. Objects with less mass than a photon (gravitons,
gravitonpairs, and small blackholes) can and do move faster
than
lightspeed. So too can understable blackholes with a mass greater than
photons - if they didn't do so photons couldn't form. So, matter
in its simplest forms can and does move faster than lightspeed.
- Information
cannot exceed lightspeed:
- Gravitons can move faster than lightspeed. If gravitons are able to convey
information, there is no currently known reason why gravitons cannot move information faster than
lightspeed.
- The
fundamental particle out of which all
other types of object are made is the graviton. The graviton has mass which
means that all objects made out of gravitons must also have mass. Thus
there is no such thing as a massless particle. Rather,
there are particles which, relative to the size of humans, are so insubstantial
that humans are currently unable to measure their mass.
- There
is nothing in the current Malta Template to
explain what gravity is and why it behaves as it
does. Nor does anything arise
to suggest that gravity moves at a specific
speed - or at any speed at all. This is not to say that gravity
doesn't
have speed. Merely that it hasn't yet evolved a speed in the
Malta Template and that the Template hasn't yet come across a need
for
it.
- There
is nothing in the current Malta Template to
suggest there can even be "waves" of gravity, let alone that they
move at lightspeed. This is not to say that there are no waves of
gravity and that they do not move at lightspeed, merely that they do
not evolve in the Template and that the Template doesn't need them to.
There is, however, something that might be confused with gravity waves.
Suffusing all space within the Universe there is a graviton medium
within
which waves can be triggered by disturbances. These waves, if
substantial enough, should be able to trigger some and maybe all of
the gravity wave detectors currently in operation. There is
nothing mysterious about these "gravitonwaves". They are subject to
the same mechanics that underly waves
in water or air and, as with waves in water or air, the speed of
gravitonwaves depends upon the density of the graviton medium. The
density of
the graviton medium varies considerably throughout the Universe with,
in
many regions, it being so thin that any gravitonwaves will lose
coherence and this will hinder our chances of detecting waves emanating
from far away.
