Gravity-Mass Growth

The Deposition Of Gravitational Photons At The Cores Of Planets

Planets Gain Mass Exponentially Via Incoming Quantum Gravitational Energy

Do Planets Emit Photon Holes?

By: John K. Harms

Abstract:

This model proposes that the mass-growth of a planet is caused by a gravitational photonic energy accumulation at the core. Such energy is absorbed by the dense matter at (or near) a planet's center-of-mass. This accumulation would necessarily be exponential because as mass increases, so does gravity. As gravity increases, an increased amount of gravitational energy is available to be absorbed by a planet. Hence, planetary mass-growth becomes a self-feeding system over time. Because denser and more massive regions absorb more photons, the core of a planet absorbs most of the long-wavelength gravitational energy. Hence, planets are expanding from the inside-out and at an exponential rate. The heat generated from the absorption of gravitational photons might be the source of planetary volcanism (the heating of rock by gravitational energy), which is common to planets throughout the solar system. A similar model by Martin Holla is also discussed, as are the probable consequences of these ideas.

Introduction

This text combines two of the author's previous works on gravity and planetary expansion. In so doing, a mechanism for planetary expansion is devised via quantum gravitational energy.

The author's work on gravity proposes that quantum gravity does exist and outlines how such a system may operate. This is the simplest explanation of gravity involving radiation voids at the cores of a body. Such a formulation, however, suggests also that the incoming gravitational photonic energy must eventually have a place to end-up. For example, if what we experience as gravity is actually incoming photons providing impulses to our bodies toward the Earth, then such photons must also be absorbed by the Earth itself. Also discussed is a similar model is proposed by Martin Holla.

This quantum gravitational energy must be significant. Over time, this energy must have the effect of increasing the mass-growth of the Earth and indeed all massive bodies. Hence, the incoming quantum gravitational energy is transformed into matter at the core. Therefore, all massive bodies must gain mass over time. A planetary enlargement takes place from the inside-out.

Quantum Gravity

The author has performed extensive work on gravity. This work will be summarized here as it relates closely to how bodies gain mass in this scenario. The author pictures gravity as an absence of radiation pressure that exists within all massive bodies. One can picture this as a photon hole (the absence of a photon) and this is the force that warps or bends the space (or space-time) around a massive body.

This void might be created when incoming long-wavelength vacuum radiation becomes absorbed by (for example) the Earth. This, then, creates an absence of radiation at or near the Earth's core, driving gravity because all other vacuum radiation becomes attracted to where radiation is absent. This is the simplest explanation of gravity via the mechanism of negative radiation pressure. As seen in the "Space Portal" text, this void is equivalent to a wormhole, a pathway into hyperspace. See the portal text at the link below for a further description.

One can show that, similar to Newtonian gravity, these incoming photons attracted to the void are an inverse-square force (1/r^2). In this view, gravity is a radiation void that exists within a piece of matter. This has the effect of bending the paths of light rays (as Eddington also found) toward a massive body such as the Earth. These incoming light-rays called photons are attracted to the void that exists within a massive body. Thus, photons are attracted to where they are absent i.e., within matter.

These photons provide impulses to objects in the gravitational field toward the Earth. Hence, any object in the gravitational field "feels" a force, a constant "push" toward the Earth by the incoming photons attracted to the radiation void of the Earth. This is the quantum approach to the gravitational field. For more information about the author's view of quantum gravity, see the "Gravitation" text at the link provided below.

Gravitational photons then impact our planet and are absorbed by the matter of the Earth. These photons are, hence, attracted to the center-of-mass of the Earth.

Center-Of-Mass

As Newton discovered, his equations only provided reasonable answers when the distance " r " (or radius) was measured from an object's center--its center-of-mass. He found that all bodies "act" as though all their mass is located at this point at the center. Newton labored for years to mathematically prove this assertion. It must, therefore, also be the case that the incoming photons are attracted to the void, at the center-of-mass of the Earth. Thus, the path of incoming photons is always toward the Earth's core, where the Earth's center-of-mass is located.

It was considered previously that a wormhole exists at or around a bodies center-of-mass and that this is where the photons go i.e., into hyperspace, but, the long-wavelength photons themselves may in fact be completely absorbed by a very large and dense mass. Otherwise, there can be no void. Perhaps, most gravitational photons are absorbed near the dense core; at or near the center-of-mass of the Earth. Because the core is so highly-dense, there should be a dramatic increase in the likelihood of long-wavelength photon absorption. Perhaps, photon absorption is almost total at the core.

This essentially means that the incoming photons that provide impulses to we humans (that we feel as gravity) at the Earth's surface, will all end-up at the core and accumulate significant mass-growth there. It logically follows also that this mass-growth must also rise exponentially.

This reasoning is as follows: As the Earth expands and increases its mass, the Earth's gravity must also increase. As the gravity of a planet increases, a greater quantity of photons will also be attracted by the planet (and also absorbed by the planet) leading to an exponentially growing mass. Hence, the mass-growth of a planet leads to a similar increase in its gravity and the massive body becomes in-essence a self-feeding system--an exponentially growing entity. Thus, overtime gravitational energy increases planetary mass and, therefore, also increases gravity.

How much mass-growth there will be over time is given by E = mc^2. Photons (energy) are transformed into planetary mass-growth and the stronger a planet's gravity, the more incoming photons will be attracted and absorbed near the core.

These photons responsible for gravity are thought to be largely long-wavelength photons (radio waves) which are known to interact very weakly with matter, but they may consist of other frequencies as well. Perhaps, however, the matter at or near the core is so dense as not to allow the transmission of significant quantities of long-wavelength photons through it. Hence, core material largely absorbs long-wavelength gravitational radiation and this is the source of the mass-growth. Over time, enough mass-growth may accumulate to substantially alter the size of a planet.

The absorption of long-wavelength or other gravitational photons may cause the rock in a planet to heat-up. This may drive volcanism within a planet; the heating of rock into a liquid state and its spilling (perhaps also driven by expansion) onto a planet's surface. Hence, the common volcanism now observed may be largely the result of the absorption of gravitational energy by a planet. Some of this absorption may also be taking place within the mantle of a planet.

Gravitational Potential Energy

One might think that this quantity of gravitational potential energy is very small, hence, mass growth would be very slight if at all. Consider lifting a weight from the floor to a tabletop. When we do we are clearly putting energy into it. The energy is not lost, however, because we can retrieve it by allowing the weight to fall back to the floor. While the weight is on the table, we say that the energy is stored as gravitational potential energy. The energy is in-essence stored as negative energy in the gravitational field (Guth, 1997).

When the opposite operation is performed, for example, a one gram weight falls in a vacuum. The kinetic energy of the falling weight is 980 ergs after one centimeter of fall, twice this amount after two centimeters, three times this amount after three centimeters, etc.. The total between the gravitational potential energy (which is negative) and the positive kinetic energy is constant and always conserved (Guth, 1997).

If one drops a weight in a gravitational field, the weight accelerates constantly (if also neglecting air resistance) picking-up kinetic energy as it falls. Clearly, the gravitational field is adding kinetic energy to all such objects that enter the field, whilst subtracting potential energy from the field itself.

If one pictures this in the quantum view as the incoming photons adding energy to objects in the field, whilst subtracting energy from the Universe (from the stars or other objects that emitted the photons originally), the energy conservation books can be balanced in the same fashion. Hence, the energy from stars becomes eventually the new mass-growth within the planets. Energy is, therefore, conserved.

If there is negative energy in this picture of the Universe, it is the force that attracted the photons in the first place--the photon holes i.e., negative radiation pressure, that resides within massive bodies. Gravity can be thought-of as a type of imbalance of the radiation pressures of the vacuum.

One can, therefore, see that this energy exchange from the stars to the planets is significant. While the gravitational force appears invisible to us humans (we only view its effects), the fact remains that in the quantum view there must be quantum exchanges of energy (impulse-type forces) in the gravitational field that are now taking place as you read these words.

Indeed, if this is the case, what happens to these "quanta" after these exchanges of energy are completed? Where do the incoming quanta eventually end-up? These are the fundamental questions that this mass-growth model addresses.

Falling Bodies

Compared to a lighter weight object of the same volume, a heavy weight "knows" it is heavy because it is more dense than the lighter object. The gravitational field provides the heavier object a bigger push in just the right amount, so as to have the same acceleration as the lighter object. Since all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass, this amounts to the heavier object absorbing more incoming photons based upon its increased density (than the lighter object of similar volume).

This in-turn means that the absorption (and impulse that follows from the absorption) in all objects is only partial. The gravitational field "knows" the weight of a given mass based upon its density as described above. More dense and massive bodies absorb more incoming photons inexact proportion to their masses. In a sense, the incident photons "weigh" an object based upon its density, the surface areas of the particles contained in the object.

The Earth, therefore, absorbs incoming photons from all directions equally, thus, "feels" no net impulse from its own incoming gravitational photons. The incident photons are absorbed at an increasing rate near the denser region of the core. This is a viewpoint that is consistent with this model. Thus, what is only a partial absorption of the incoming photons at the surface of the Earth (that we experience as gravity) is an almost total and complete absorption near the core.

Because the majority of the gravitational energy might be deposited near the core, it is, therefore, expanding at an increased rate. The Earth is expanding via gravitational energy from the inside-out. View the evidence for this expansion in the "Planetary Expansion" text. See link below.

Energy To Mass Conversion

It is relatively straightforward to convert many long-wavelength photons into usable matter for expansion near the core. The very high-temperatures that are thought to exist at the core may also be related to this energy influx. As Einstein showed us, mass is energy and vice-versa. It may require many photon absorption's to fabricate a few quarks or electrons, the building blocks of ordinary matter.

However, the shear numbers of these gravitational long-wavelength photons may be such that mass-growth becomes somewhat rapid. Moreover, increasing gravity over time increases the quantity of incoming photons. That a large number of long-wavelength photons are capable of fabricating new matter becomes a prediction of this model. As mentioned earlier, the heating that may result in volcanism may be also an effect of gravitational energy absorption by a planet.

Most of the incoming long-wavelength photons are absorbed by a planet creating a wormhole-like void. Some of these photons may fall into the wormhole created at the core and enter hyperspace. The remaining incoming photons must be absorbed by a planet adding to its mass growth and, perhaps, its volcanism.

If one views all matter (as condensed matter physicists do) as largely a type of "plasma state", it is relatively straightforward to understand how matter can absorb (and block) incoming photons regardless of their wavelengths. It is commonly known that plasma states have the characteristic that they even block-out long-wavelength radiation which normally pass straight-through most matter i.e., matter is thought to be transparent to long-wavelength radiation. Perhaps, however, this is not the case! Thus, the ideas proposed by this text are, in the author's opinion, not farfetched at all.

An Equivalent Viewpoint

An equivalent picture has been proposed by the physicist Martin Holla. Holla has proposed that "gravitons" are emitted by all massive bodies (such as the Earth). According to Holla, these gravitons must have "negative weight" and when they impact a piece of matter in the gravitational field, they cause an attraction toward the Earth. Moreover, in Holla's viewpoint, if a particle with negative weight were to be emitted by a body such as the Earth, this emission should add the same mass to the Earth. The author is in agreement. Hence, as Holla's gravitons are emitted, the Earth must in-turn gain weight! In this way, Martin Holla has deduced (by a different methodology) an identical model as that proposed within this text. The author will now show why they must be equivalent.

Although Holla doesn't call them this (or view them this way), Holla's gravitons are equivalent to photon holes--negative weight particles. If a photon hole impacts a piece of matter, the effect is that of an "absence of pressure" on a body. Hence, when a photon hole hits a piece of matter emitted by the Earth, there can be a negative attraction toward the Earth.

This is identical in-practice to a positive push on the side-opposite the Earth (toward the Earth). It can be understood (as is elaborated in the author's other works) that a photon hole is essentially an ordinary photon traveling backward-in-time. Hence, a backward-in-time photon (a photon hole) emitted by the Earth is absolutely equivalent to a photon coming inward toward the Earth from space. This idea, therefore, can be seen to be identical to the author's proposed model in this text. Or, might it be that both push and pull are taking place simultaneously! See the "Push-Pull Gravity Model" at the link below.

So, in-essence, the Earth gains mass in the author's model via incident photons from space being absorbed by the Earth. Or, to picture it somewhat differently, the Earth gains mass (in Holla's proposal) by the outward emission of photon holes (Holla's gravitons) which in-turn fabricates and leaves-behind mass/energy in the form of photons within the Earth. Therefore, the result of a planet increasing its mass by photons can be understood to be identical in either equivalent picture of gravity one adopts.

It is noteworthy that if matter is made of photon holes (below the speed of light c), then this type of matter might be canceled by incoming radiation (and perhaps melt away) rather than gain mass. This does depend somewhat on the energies of the photons that might cancel, however. In the conventional picture of positive energy mass, mass should accumulate as described when photons are absorbed. If it might be demonstrated that planets do indeed expand over time, this might add weight to the idea that matter is largely positive energy and not composite structures of photon holes.

Conclusion

This gravitational mass-growth model has the following probable consequences:

1) Long-wavelength photons are only partially absorbed by ordinary matter. Denser matter absorbs an increased quantity of long-wavelength photons. At the densities of the Earth's core, the absorption may be almost total.

2) For quantum gravity to work in this scenario, there must be a massive influx of long-wavelength photons from space (brighter even than the Sun's output). Since there is no upper limit to long-wavelength photons and such photons might be undetectable, it may be possible that the influx is large enough to cause quantum gravity as is proposed within the text.

3) The cumulative effect of many long-wavelength photons can fabricate quarks and electrons, the building blocks of matter at the core. This consequence does not appear unlikely to this author.

4) Volcanism may be caused by the absorption of gravitational photons. This might produce heat which, either occurs within the mantle itself, or the heat makes its way up from the core region transforming rock on the way into a liquid state. Expansion, then, spills the molten rock onto the surface of a planet in defiance of gravity. Doing work of this kind against gravity requires an outward force--expansion.

5) The model is equivalent to Martin Holla's (negative weight) graviton emission model of gravity and planetary expansion. See the description above.
