A NEW PARADIGM OF SCIENTIFIC THOUGHT - THE ELECTRIC UNIVERSE

   Article 16 : Implications of the electrical explanation of mass and
   gravity - Part 1

   by Bishop Nicholas Sykes

   In Article 15 the electrical explanation of mass was touched on. This
   explanation constitutes a call upon us to begin to discard our old
   hazy notions of mass as an amount of material substance, in favour of
   understanding it as an electrically induced property of the particles
   that constitute the substance of the body concerned. In responding to
   this call we are, in fact after one hundred years or so, responding
   positively to Henri Poincaré's great saying: "What we call mass would
   seem to be nothing but an appearance, and all inertia to be of
   electromagnetic origin."

   The mass in kilograms of the body (i.e. of the particles that
   constitute it) is a measure of the ease of electrically deforming
   those particles. By "deforming" a particle we mean exerting a force
   upon it giving it the properties of an electric dipole, in which the
   particle's subtrons respond to the force by resolving into a resonance
   such that one side of a summation particle (i.e. one end) becomes an
   positive "pole" and the opposite side or end becomes a negative pole -
   these of course being positively or negatively charged with respect to
   the summation charge of the particle concerned. A proton with 1836
   times the mass of an electron deforms 1836 times as much, so to speak,
   as an electron would under the same conditions. Wal Thornhill proposes
   that the neutrino, as the most collapsed form of matter, has almost
   zero mass because while, like electrons, neutrinos are normal matter
   composed of subtrons, the dipoles capable of being formed by neutrinos
   are very small compared even to those formed by electrons. Although
   some independent scientists dispute the existence of neutrinos on
   grounds that they are only necessitated by Relativity Theory, they are
   particularly significant for Thornhill's Electric Universe concept,
   because of their perceived role in the transmission of both gravity
   and electromagnetic radiation through space. We will explore that role
   in a further article.

   The great nineteenth century experimenter Michael Faraday was
   convinced of the importance of the connection between gravity and
   electricity. Although Faraday's experiments on this were not
   successful (and the issue has proved to be a tough nut to crack ever
   since), Faraday stated that he remained of the view that

   "The long and constant persuasion that all forces of nature are
   mutually dependent, having one common origin, or rather being
   different manifestations of one fundamental power, has often made me
   think on the possibility of establishing, by experiment, a connection
   between gravity and electricity ... no terms could exaggerate the
   value of the relation they would establish." - quoted by Thornhill at
   the 2007 Cambridge conference of the Society for Interdisciplinary
   Studies (SIS) from M. Faraday's Experimental researches in
   electricity, Vol 3.

   Thornhill rightly commented "Faraday's estimate of the importance of
   such a connection still stands. Today, there are a number of scholars
   pursuing this obvious line of inquiry. After all, the electrical and
   gravitational forces share fundamental characteristics - they both
   diminish with the inverse square of the distance; they are both
   proportional to the product of the interacting masses or charges; and
   both forces act along the line between them."

   During the mid 1970's I made an investigation of this possible
   relationship using a modified Cavendish-Boyd apparatus. While I too
   did not specifically find what I was looking for, the results (which
   are no longer to hand) of the investigation seemed very clearly to
   show that the constant known to physicists as "big G" varied in a
   regular manner throughout the day. If this were confirmed it would
   agree with an assessment that has been expressed by a number of
   physicists that "big G" is the most uncertainly established "constant"
   in all of fundamental Physics. "Big G" represents the relationship
   connecting the gravitational force exerted between two massive bodies
   at a particular distance between them and the quantity of the masses,
   as perceived in Newtonian Physics, such as, for example, the
   gravitational force exerted between the Earth and the Sun, or the
   gravitational force exerted between the Moon and the Earth. In
   Newtonian Physics, as well as in the solar system as has generally
   been described by scientists, it would be necessary for "big G" to be
   a constant. However, the Newtonian concept of gravitational force
   takes no account of a possibility of the mass of a body being in any
   way subject to variation by electrical forces.

   Thornhill at the 2007 SIS conference in Cambridge noted that

   "The electrical model may explain the anomalous gravity readings taken
   down mineshafts, where Newton's constant, G, was measured to be 1.7 to
   3.9% lower than in the laboratory. Rather than invent a 'fifth force'
   or 'modified Newtonian dynamics' (MOND) to complicate things, it seems
   we simply need to understand the electrical nature of matter and
   gravity."
