Suggestions on photons and fermions

In this paper we suggest a configuration of photons consistent with a spin $\hbar$, and a configuration of the fermions coherent with a spin $\hbar/2$. These suggested configurations open the way to further analyses which lead to the following conclusions: - There cannot exist elementary particles of spin $\hbar/2$ with a mass inferior to $1m_e$ or with a radius greater than $1l_e$. - The electrostatic force derives from the centrifugal forces inherent to the spin and are propagated by photons. - The derivation of the electrostatic force explains the existence of positive and negative charges and Coulomb's law. - The enormous differences between the centrifugal forces and the centripetal forces at the surface of the protons give rise to quantic fluctuations of space which generate the energy flows necessary for equilibrium. These energy flows can explain gravitation and the strong force. - The mass of the proton, $m_p$, and the mass of the neutron, $m_n$, must each have a concrete value required for the cohesion of the atomic nuclei. The suggested hypoteses show that the relation $m_n/m_p$ must be very slightly greater than 1.00, and that, by a first approximation, both $m_n$ and $m_p$ must be slightly less than 1851 $m_e$. - There are no "gravitons" and no "gluons"; the "messenger particles" are always the very real photons.

Basic outlines of a new hypothesis on physical reality

The papers mentioned in the bibliography lead to this new hypothesis which constitutes a wide panorama of the physical reality. Its coherence and its simplicity are virtues that make interesant to gaze upon it.

Zero-point radiation, inertia and gravitation

In this paper it is shown that the forces which resist the acceleration of the mass of the electron, $m_e$, arising from the Compton effect, the Klein-Nishima-Kann formula for its differential cross section and the transversal Doppler effect when the electron moves in a straight line coincide, with $\vare<1,16\times10^{-4}$, with the force required to propel me with the same acceleration, if the radius of the electron is equal to its classical radius and if the forces which rise from the interaction of the electron and zero-point radiation are equal to those deriving from the electrostatic repulsion of the charge of the electron against itself (Poincare's tensions). The equations worked in this paper show that there is no difference between inertial mass and gravitational mass and may be used to determine the value of the gravitational constant.

Preliminary analysis of the possibility of making use of part of the energy flow of zero-point radiation

The energy flow of zero-point radiation is very great, but difficult to put to use. However, the observations made by Sparnaay in 1958 and by Lamoureux in 1997 reveal the possibility of making use of a very small fraction of that immense amount. This possibility is big enough for such a minute fraction to have significant importance, but such a possibility requires miniaturisation to a degree which may be unattainable. It is worth trying to achieve it, since it would open the way to interstellar travel.

Interactions between Zero-Point Radiation and Electrons

Knowing the magnitude of the energy flow inherent to zero-point radiation allows us to approach the question of its possible interaction with particles of matter. Its photons are not different from the rest, and must in principle be subject to the Compton effect and the Klein-Nishima-Tann formula for its cross section. On this assumption, it is shown here that zero-point radiation may be powerful enough to explain Poincaré's tensions and to supply an efficient cause for gravitation. This could be only the case if the classic radius of the electron measures $8.143375\times10^{20}q_\la$, where $q_\la$ is the minimum wavelength for electromagnetic radiation, and if the wavelength of the most energetic photon in the actual zero-point radiation is $5.275601\times10^{27}q_\la$. To the first of these numbers there corresponds the energy $3.5829 \times10^{23}$ MeV for the photon whose wavelength is $1q_\la$. This gives also the relation $q_\la=(2 π\al)^{1/2}L_P$, where $L_P$ is the Planck Length. Finally the relation between the force of gravity and the electrostatic force is explained by the equations obtained in this paper.

Zero-point radiation and the Big Bang

This paper develops a cosmological hypothesis based on the following propositions: 1. Zero-point radiation derives from quantic fluctuations in space, and the wavelength of its photons with the greatest energy is inversely proportional to the curvature of space. 2. The Universe began as the breaking in of photons of extremely high energy contained in the 3-dimensional surface: $w^2+x^2+y^2+z^2=R^2_i$, whose radius has continued to expand at the speed of ligth since its origin at $t=0$. 3. The wavelength of the photons is quantized and the quantum of wavelength is invariable. These propositions imply that the value of the total energy of the zero-point radiation in the Universe remains constant and the condition $w^2 + x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = (R_i + ct)^2 = R_u^2$ determines that every point in our space is subject to a tension whose intensity $i$ is proportional to the curvature $1/R_u$. Any increase of $R_u$ implies a decrease in $i$ and consequently an energy flow which translates into an expansive force. Therefore, the Universe will expand indefinitely: no Big Crunch is possible. If the initial radius of the Universe $R_i$ has been smaller than the Schwarzschild radius, $R_s$, which corresponds to the total mass of the Universe, $M_u$, the generation of matter would have lasted for thousands of millions of years. Generation of matter over short periods would have required values for $R_i$ of thousands of millions of light years.

An analysis of the big-bang theory according to classical physics

This paper collects a consistent body of information on the observable Universe, from which an estimate of the total mass of the Universe is calculated as a function of the angle whose vertex is at the center of the Universe, and whose extremities stand on the Earth and on the limits of the horizon of visibility. This result leads to an analysis of the dynamics of the Big-Bang, taking into account the limitations imposed by the Schwarzschild radius, $R_S$. Where if $R_0$ is the radius of the incipient Universe when the formation of elementary particles has just finished, the value of the quotient $R_0/R_S$ determines its subsequent evolution. An important conclusion from this concerns the expansion of the Universe; all signs point to its being destined to expand indefinitely.
