Note to moderators:
This thread is an obvious rehash of the DEAILE/Duality threads. Nonetheless, the purpose is to:
1. Provide a clear, coherent synopsis of the duality model
2. Provide a single reference for the never-ending stream of newcomers asking—What-the-hell-is-Dark-Energy?—that I can point to and say, “Here is one possible answer; its not accepted by the mainstream, but no DE theory is. Have a look.”
The BA has said—paraphrasing—he won’t believe it until it’s published in a mainstream journal.*
I would try, but mainstream journals do not accept papers in plain English, and I lack the skills/resources necessary to translate it into scholarese. So here it is, for those who want to understand why the universe is expanding, and accelerating as it does so.
Note to readers:
Please do not post to this thread, per the spirit of BAUT rules on “discussion over.”
1. The dualistic model is pictured explicitly, below
2. The math is presented explicitly
3. The results are explicit: expansion energy is not a problem in this simple model
4. Its prediction is explicit, and can be tested by anyone with the requisite data-reduction/math skills
If you find an error in the paper which would change any number by more than a factor of 10, or have a question about where any of the numbers came from or how the calculation was done, PM me.
Thanks

Mainstream understanding of duality coming soon!
