Wave Structure Of Matter

Haselhurst · #1 (**permalink**) 07-May-2004, 10:48 AM

Hello everyone,

The following post is an introduction from my website, I think it gives a reasonable summary of what i am on about (i.e. Alternative Theories) .
To me the Wave Structure of Matter is not really an alternative theory, but rather a strangely neglected one. By this i mean that in the early 1900s quantum theory was founded on discrete energy states for light and matter, which were calculated using Schrodinger's standing wave equations. This of course relates to the particle wave duality of matter. What is strange is that a pure Wave Structure of Matter was never considered. I suspect this was because the particle / field conception of matter was by then well established, having evolved from ancient greek 'atoms', Newton's Mechanics, Faraday's Electric and Magnetic Fields, Maxwell's Equations (vector electromagnetic waves of force), Lorentz's Theory of the Electron, and Einstein's Relativity.
Anyway, as i see things, by replacing 'particles' and 'fields' in space-time, with spherical standing waves in space, the wave structure of matter does seem to explain and solve a lot of problems of philosophy physics and metaphysics.

Hope you find it interesting,
Geoff Haselhurst

On Truth and Reality

The Metaphysics of Space and Motion and the Wave Structure of Matter (WSM)
By Philosopher of Science, Metaphysics Geoff Haselhurst

And those whose hearts are fixed on Reality itself deserve the title of Philosophers. (Plato, Republic, 380BC )

Metaphysics is universal and is exclusively concerned with primary substance. And here we will have the science to study that which is, both in its essence and in the properties which, just as a thing that is, it has. That among entities there must be some cause which moves and combines things. There must then be a principle of such a kind that its substance is activity. (Aristotle, 340BC)

Reality cannot be found except in One single source, because of the interconnection of all things with one another. ... It is a good thing to proceed in order and to establish propositions (principles). This is the way to gain ground and to progress with certainty. ... I hold that the mark of a genuine idea is that its possibility can be proved, either a priori by conceiving its cause or reason, or a posteriori when experience teaches us that it is a fact in nature. (Gottfried Leibniz, 1670)

Introduction

I must admit that I have spent considerable time thinking about writing an introduction to this website on Truth and Reality.
The problem is perplexing, yet simple.

I am a philosopher / metaphysicist, and these subjects (along with all human knowledge) are founded on Reality, this being the source of all Truth and Wisdom.
The problem is that I am now quite convinced that Reality has been discovered, that this is very important to humanity, and yet at the same time I realise that very few people will believe this, or make any effort to understand it to determine its truth. (And I accept there are many valid reasons for this apparent apathy and cynicism.)
I figure though, that the best I can do as a philosopher is to write the truth as clearly, concisely, simply and sensibly as I am able, then I have done my job, and it is up to you to make up your own mind as to its truth and importance.

So lets start by very briefly summarising the main idea.
Currently we represent Matter as particles generating forces that act on other particles in space and time. This discrete particle conception of matter is incomplete (as Einstein realised) but his error was to try and describe reality as a pure field theory (he failed). Instead, we must combine the waves discovered by Schrodinger and de Broglie (foundations of Quantum Theory) with the Absolute Space assumed by Newton, to describe matter as Spherical Standing Waves in Space. Thus the Wave-Center of the Spherical Standing Wave causes the particle effect of matter, the interaction of the spherical In and Out Waves cause the 'force fields'.
Most significantly, we are describing reality from One thing, Space, and its properties as a Wave Medium, rather than from Many things, Matter, and their properties of generating fields (that cause the effect of Space, though how particles do this is never explained). This then explains Hume's problem of Causation and Necessary Connection, as it is the One thing Space, that connects the many things matter (as spherical waves in space). Now I realise it is a little confusing to begin, but it is very simple once known. (Please see below for further details.)
Most importantly, as our world now faces many crises, it seems to me that this knowledge of reality, if it is true, is critical to humanity and our future survival.

Unfortunately, we now live in a post-modern culture that does not believe it is possible to know Reality, and thus to have Absolute Truth. All knowledge is relative to cultural constructions, which are ultimately merely ideas, not real things existing in themselves (Kantian Idealism). I suspect it would be 'academic suicide' to even use these terms of Truth and Reality in a title as I have done (though they accurately reflect the content). You are asking to be branded a 'crackpot', either ignorant of our current 'enlightened post-modern' knowledge, and thus deluded, or allowing ego and imagination to sway reason and good sense.
In my defence, which is really a defence of Philosophy and Science, I reply;
Over the past ten years I have taken the time to study the great minds of human history (there are many beautiful and brilliant minds to read). This becomes clear as you read this website, which is filled with thousands of quotes from many great minds over thousands of years.
Now this in no way means that what I write is true, my point is more that by presenting the existing knowledge from the original source, explaining the problems and how they can be solved, this then allows you to make up your own mind as to the validity of the argument. (As I see philosophy and science, you can't tell someone the truth, but you can show them how to work it out for themselves.)
And based upon this knowledge of philosophy, physics and metaphysics, it is now clear to me that the Metaphysics of Space and Motion and the Wave Structure of Matter is a far better way to describe reality than the current paradigm of particles and forces in space and time.

Anyway, the purpose of this introduction is to encourage you to take the time to browse the brief summaries of articles (sorted by subject) which follow this introduction. If this knowledge of the Wave Structure of Matter is correct then it is clearly very important to Humanity, and has the power to solve many of our problems, both in the spheres of human knowledge, and how we are to live on Earth (without destroying ourselves and the Nature which created us, and upon which we depend). As I see it, the world needs our help, and this help must be founded on the truth, not just our good intentions, if it is to actually work and make things better.
For now, this is my brief / abrupt introduction. (It is a work in progress!, so please write and tell me your thoughts so I can improve it.)

Summary of Website / Knowledge

Currently Physics (and thus all human knowledge) is founded on the concepts of particles and forces in Space and Time, which assumes the existence of four separate things. This causes many problems for Humanity because the necessary connection between these things is unknown. The Metaphysics of Space and Motion and the Wave Structure of Matter (WSM) solves these problems by describing Reality in terms of One thing, Space, existing with the Properties of a Wave Medium. Matter is formed from Spherical Standing Waves in Space which cause the 'particle' effect at their Wave Center. Time is due to the Wave Motion (activity) of Space. Forces are caused by the interaction of the Spherical In and Out Waves with other matter in Space which changes the location of the Wave-Center (and which we 'see' as a 'force accelerating a particle').
This rather abrupt summary is explained in detail in the website - see links below.

This (very) rough diagram shows how the In-Waves and Out-Waves form a Standing Wave around the Wave-Center.

Would love to hear other people's thoughts.
All the best,
Geoff Haselhurst

Hi Geoff.

Could you please post some of the ways you theorise that matter (as a result of WSM) interacts with the universe as we know it. How does this work with the simple stuff - Why do things have mass for eg? How does this paradigm shift answer the unknown - How does this theory answer some of the problems of current physics? (yes I've visited the site.)

Thanks.

"Wherever you are in Infinite Space, there is matter spherically distributed around you (extending to infinity) but you (matter / Wave-Centers) only interact with a finite sphere of space and the matter / Wave-Centers it contains. It is this other matter's Out-Waves that combine (Huygens' Principle) to form your Matter's spherical IN-Waves (this explains Mach's Principle / how we are connected to other matter in universe)."

so, why do you "only interact with a finite sphere of space and the matter / Wave-Centers it contains"?..when you are in "Infinite Space"?

Hi,
I am away for a week, then i shall try and answer your questions (though i think the answers can be found on the website - see links below).
Thanks for replying,
Geoff

principle 2

"ii) The Spherical In-Waves are formed from the Huygens' Combination of Out-Waves from All other Matter in our Finite Spherical Universe.
(This is the Cause of Mach's Principle – the Mass (Wave-Density) of an object is determined by all the other matter in the Universe."

http://www.spaceandmotion.com/Physics-Albe...-Relativity.htm

here you say the universe is a finite sphere containing all the matter of the universe...yet at the same time you say the universe is infinite?

**************************************************

principle 1

"ii) Matter Exists as the Spherical Wave Motion of Space (which determines) the Size of our Finite Spherical Universe within an Infinite Space."

how?
