Electronic filaments

In the one-dimensional world of a flux line beyond Bce, paired evanescent low momentum 0-Landau electron states condense into magnetized bosons of vanishing momentum. I use the results of Rojas et al. within a Coulomb potential and show that magnetic intensities and electron densities sufficient to initiate condensation can be achieved in the shockwaves of cathode hot spots; from unipolar pulses on the surface of a discontinuous micro conductor or cathode tip as a discharge suddenly self-interrupts. Above Bc_e, there are charged electronic vector states that are superconducting and ferromagnetic. Assuming the magnetization of the vacuum within the flux quantized to be free extends the range of stable states. The thinnest filaments have the Compton radius for the effective boson mass. When perturbed,they evolve towards a decaying state with vanishing density at Bc or further condense into composites of higher mass, charge and critical field. Open, almost neutral filament systems with one quantum of flux and several microns in length would be metastable in the Earth's magnetic field and terminated by magnetic monopoles.

The Origin of Gravity

I consider a pair of harmonic, electromagnetically coupled oscillators. Their dynamic coupling is allowed in the near field, that is, for frequencies roughly below ~c/r for virtual exchanges between two elementary entities. It is also valid for tunneling photons from very distant and red-shifted matter in the radiation gauge. In this case, the near magnetic field can be safely ignored. I treat the problem using Planck's and Post's ensemble description of harmonic oscillators. It is found that the correlated interacting modes have lower eigen frequencies and positive zero-modes, their anticorrelating counterparts having higher eigenfrequencies and negative zero-modes. While the former tend to induce coherent states over large ensembles, the latter cannot. This applies to all the modes of the near field, as well as to the transverse radiant modes. As a result, an attractive -1/r long-range potential is found in all the zero-modes of the near field, with a cosmological constant depending on the disorder in the system, provided that the interacting modes be most strongly cohered from the far infrared. This occurs naturally in Yilmaz's cosmology, where the Zitterbewegung of very distant matter is felt in the far infrared by the Zitterbewegung of local matter, in proportion to the frequencies of both, which agrees with the principle of equivalence. The Machian inertia appears on cosmic scales from bound coherent states through this tunneling electromagnetic radiation. In an elliptic Universe, the very low frequency modes of the coupled oscillators can be identified with those of their radiative antipodal image. As a result, far infrared coherent modes are expected to arise in the Universe that lies within their realm, in which the local oscillators intrinsically partake, inducing gravity.

Induced Gravity in the Short Range

We consider a pair of harmonic oscillators in two or three dimensions of space coupled by the standard electrodynamic forces : the Coulomb, the Lorentz and the electrokinetic forces. The addition of the Lorentz force is mainly felt in the short range and suppresses the radial correlated oscillating mode of such coupled oscillators. This imposes constraints on the system that make the two transverse modes degenerate. As a result, an 1/r antigravitational interaction now appears in the surviving anticorrelated radial zero-mode, which does not allow coherent states to form. As gravitation can only emerge from coherent modes, it can no longer be transitive. Matter in high densities would thus tend to increase its disorder, decouple from its own gravity, from the ordering far infrared Machian background that coheres its rest energy and would become intrinsically unstable. The highly energetic jets from galactic nuclei could be the consequence.
