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 wonld 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 bethought of as endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media, as consisting of parts which maybe tracked through time. The idea of motion may not be applied to it. ZP OWER C ORPORATION PAGE OF 352 Z ERO P OINT E NERGY A ETHER , R ELATIVITY AND S UPERFLUIDITY BY B ARRY C. M INGST Abstract A review of the basics of special and general relativity. The basis of both special relativity and general relativity is superfluid equations -- Maxwell's equations for special relativity and generalized superfluid equations for general relativity. Demonstration that a superfluid aether results in both special and general relativity as special cases. Resolution of the Feynman arguments against an aether as a gravitational source. Discussion of the Thirring-Lenz experiment tending to confirm physical aether medium versus "mathematical" or "continuum" cause of gravity. Introduction "According to the general theory of relativity space is endowed with physical qualities; in this sense, therefore, there exists an aether. According to the general theory of relativity space without aether is unthinkable" A. Einstein, Sidelights on Relativity, 1922, page 23. This paper examines one possible physically causative agent for gravitation of matter bodies. This causative agent is a superfluid aether. This aether is not matter, but matter is affected by the aether. Superfluidity is the basis for Maxwell's equations, special relativity, and general relativity. The concept of the aether arose from the study of the behavior of wave action and light. Even before the kinetic theory of gases provided microscopic concepts, the study of the sensible world allowed a fairly consistent view of wave action. Light was clearly identified in the wave category of phenomena. The debate as to what the ultimate underlying nature of light was (wave or particulate) spanned several centuries of theory and experiment. Not until the twentieth century was it ever contended that "waves" of light did not have an underlying physical medium. The main objection to fluid aether theories came from light's propagation as transverse waves. Up to the time of the general abandonment of deterministic (classical) physics at the microscopic level (with the rise of quantum physics in the s) no "reasonable" way to explain this behavior of light was generally accepted. "The" aether theory being tested by the famous Michaelson-Morely experiment was the "solid" aether theory that was in |
