Gravity mechanism predicts G to within 1.7%

In summary, the conversation discusses proof that the gravity constant, G, equals (3/4)(H^2)/[(pi)(density)e^3], and the role of the inward force of gravity in the big bang. It also references various articles and sources that support this proof and delve into the mechanics and implications of gravity. The conversation also briefly touches on the graviton issue and Witten's claim, but does not provide a direct refutation or explanation.

Blimey Nigel! what have you done?

First you should try and understand the missing link in gravitational theory which is Newton's constant. Explain that (G) in terms of simple classical theory and go from there.
Edward Harrison at Amherst said in his book 'Cosmology'[/I] "The value of G is found by measurement, no physicist has yet been clever enough to explain it" (page 65 or 45).
If you fill that gap then you will unify physical theory, all else is as the Emperors new clothes.


If you had bothered to READ the first post on this trend, you would see that I've proved the formula for G. This has never been done. Eddington remarked in 1920 in his book Space, Time and Gravitation, that there were 200 different ideas about the cause of gravity but none gave a value for G.

Here I give the value for G, accurate to within 1.65% of the experimental value, and you are saying the opposite, and quoting some old fool who claims that he is God and somehow knows that because something has been done in the past, that prevents me from doing it now.

Please read the first post of this thread to see what it is about and what I have done. Thank you.

First post repeated for your benefit, proving G from simple classical theory:

Gravity mechanism predicts G to within 1.7%

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The acceleration of matter outwards in the big bang is a force (Newton's 2nd law) requiring a reaction (Newton's 3rd law). The reaction is the inward directed force of gravity carried by the fabric of space.

Proof of 1.7% accuracy: http://www.wbabin.net/physics/cook2.htm

Background info: http://members.lycos.co.uk/nigelbryancook/

Summary:

Nugent, Physical Review Letters (v75 p394), cites decay of nickel-63 from supernovae, obtaining H = 50 km/sec/Mps (where 1 Mps = 3.086x10^22 m). The density of visible matter at our local time has long been known to be 4x10^-28 kg/m3. However, White and Fabian in the March 1995 Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, using the Einstein Observatory satellite data, estimate that invisible gas increases this density by 15%.

Using these data, G = 3(H^2)/[4pi(e^3)ρ] = 6.783x10^-11 Nm^2kg^-2, within 1.65% of the physical measurement for G of 6.673x10^-11 Nm^2kg^-2. (http://members.lycos.co.uk/nigelbryancook/)

Background:

‘Electronic Universe’ article (Electronics World, Vol. 109, No. 1804) proves G = 3(H^2)/(4 pi ρ). [Ref: http://cdsweb.cern.ch/search.py?f=author&p=Cook,+N and http://www.wbabin.net/physics/cook1.htm.

H is the Hubble constant and ρ is the density of universe responsible for causing gravity by the inward reaction of 377-ohm physical space to the outward big bang; pi is the mathematical constant. Considering the density, it is highest at early times and thus density increases in the observable space-time trajectory, as we look further into the past with increasing distance.

But the increasing spread of matter with increasing distance partly offsets this increase, as proven when we put the observed Hubble equation (v = Hr) into the mass continuity equation and solve it. For spherical symmetry, dx = dy = dz = dr. Hence: dρ/dt = -div.(ρv) = -div.(ρHr) = 3d(ρHr)/dr = -3ρH. Solving dρ/dt = -3ρH by rearranging, integrating, then using exponentials to get rid of the natural logarithms (resulting from the integration) gives the increased density to be ρe^(3Ht), where e is Euler’s constant (2.718 ...). In the absence of gravitational retardation (i.e. with the cause of gravity as inward reaction of space to the outward big bang), H = 1/t when H = v/r = c/(radius of universe) = 1/t, where t is the age of the universe, so e^(3Ht) = e^3 = 20.1 and observed G = 3(H^2)/[4pi(e^3)ρ].

If anyone can explain concisely the effect of gravity gravity then fair enough, but if you can't reproduce the effect then your'e not fair.
Keep it simple, because that is the limit of our understanding of the effect. How on Earth can you explain the complex if you cannot even understand the simple?

Do you side with the aging bigot Dr Brian Josephson, who is now head of "Mind-Matter Unification" and thinks because he got the Nobel Prize for a useless liquid helium junction over 40 years ago, WHICH HAS SO FAR PROVED OF NO PRACTICAL VALUE TO ELECTRONICS OR THE REAL WORLD, he can go around preaching gibberish and denying science. Dictators who use ridicule and reject scientific argument out of hand, while suppressing advances, are nothing new in human history. Such dictators arise from ego problems:

Dear Dr Josephson,

Political decisions such as Bohr's are not physics, and people who refuse to
check mathematical proofs are politicians, not physicists.Currently taught
physics does not YET contain a causal mechanism for forces, viz the
problem with a particle carrying momentum to cause force and yet having zero
mass having to be ascribed to a force carrying particle to give make it
abide by the inverse square law rather than a range equal to a limiting
distance given by the time available under Heisenberg's law. However you do
not want to look at the evidence, and therefore you do not side with
Galileo, who was not the rude professor in the ivory tower.

From Galileo’s letter to Kepler: ‘Here, at Padua, is the principal professor
of philosophy, who I have repeatedly and urgently requested to look at the
moon and planets through my glass, which he pertinaciously refuses to do.
Why are you not here? What shouts of laughter we should have at this
glorious folly!’ (Translation: Oliver Lodge, Pioneers of Science, 1893, p.
106.)

Nigel,
I certainly don't side with Mr Josephson.
Youb are quite correct in what you said about the abscence of a "causal mechanism for forces" in physics theory. All that has been constructed to date are mathematical expressions that lack any explanation of cause. That "causal mechanism" is what I, like you, am looking for, but I find myself hampered (as you do) by those who insist that current theory is more than just a calculation.

Thanks. I hope I never get any big ego prize that turns my brain into something fit only for sale as offal. Just look at the esteemed Mind-Matter Professor "Josephson Junction"!

One day, after insulting and obstructing genuine science a little too much, the sneering PRL or Nature editors and "nobel referee" thugs may slip on a quantum banana skin they themselves have carelessly dropped, and are amazed to discover that people don't respect them enough to walk around.

(They will respond to that not like adults, but like immature kids by screaming and complaining about being accidentally kicked very hard for obstructing the paths of people who are busy doing real science. What s****. What they don't realize is that voting each other prizes doesn't earn them respect. Pretending that "laws" explain things just makes the man in the street laugh at their mad "theories". They are trying to destroy science using the Popperian approach of guesswork theories selected by all-powerful editors while correct proofs get censored out. This is purely political. It is a bit like 1938, with some people claiming that if we appease the dictators we will "reform them" or we can "just say no" or "ignore bad people and let them alone mummy" and the Jews are safe. Anyone who attacks those childish and dangerously naive nutters is then called a nasty horrible old war monger, as was Churchill. The situation is very difficult, but if you are pacifist in the face of scum dictators - whether "Popperian scientific" or purely political, you must fight for what you believe in or everything you have proved and developed over many years will be destroyed at the flick of a switch by the scum.)

Back to gravity. We have a fabric of space, and if everything is stationary in it, there's no gravity at all.

Now you introduce the motions of matter as observed from the redshifts (Hubble observations). The matter moving out of every unit volume means that extra space fabric comes into that volume, keeping the volume full of space and matter.

Now the distant clusters of galaxies are not just moving away, but we observe that in the space-time trajectory we can actually see, they are "gaining" speed with distance and thus time (this is what we observe and what influences our gravity; I am not saying that if light and gravity somehow traveled instantly we would see and feel the same because we would not). Hence it is an acceleration.

In response, space is coming inwards towards us to balance that, generating a force towards us from every direction.

Now, that force coming at us from every direction comes almost full strength through the open sky atmosphere above, but is very slightly obstructed by this planet at our feet.

Now when you draw imaginary arrows to show forces like this on a piece of paper, you get a full big force arrow going down at you, but a slightly weaker force arrow coming upwards at you. So you get a net force which is downward, gravitation.

If you can find any effective way of illustrating this without maths, go ahead!

I've tried to change the title of this thread to the following:

Proof that gravity constant G = (3/4)(H^2)/[4(pi)(density)e^3]

This doesn't work so please go to the new thread with that title. Thanks, Nigel
