Amsterdam, january 10, MMXIX
To the Editor of the Economist,
Your article about the universe is not quite a leading source because it assumes validity of the general theory of relativity, dating from a hundred years ago, from before the era of quantum mechanics. Einstein thought that the second gets slower near mass. This forms the base of believe in black holes, dark or negative energy, inflation of the universe and its accellerated expansion. Such slower second does not correspond with the fast processes in the very concentrated young universe.
The russian scientist Vasily Yanchilin wrote an article in the Canadian Journal of Pure and Applied Science, june 2018, in which he denies Einstein's vision. He did so already by publishing his book The Quantum Theory of Gravitation (2003). The mentioned article can be found via www.top-formula.net. On this his site Yanchilin proposes an experiment on duration of the second. Red shift of sunlight or from a source near mass is well observed. Colour depends on frequency of light and when photons go up from the foot of a tower to the top they have to overcome gravity and are confronted with difference in duration of the second respectively at the foot and the top of the tower. Atomic clocks run slower at the foot than at the top and this is generally taken by astronomers as confirming the general theory of relativity. Yanchilin wants to count number of oscillations of a laser beam going from the foot to the top which will as he argues result in abolition of Einstein's wrong theory with slower second near mass and all the related phantasy of black holes, negative or dark energy, inflation and accellerated expansion by a negative force. All that contradicts nature's laws, so Yanchilin explains what went wrong. Here a summary but better is to interview him, residing presently in Hurghada and reached by googling his name.
Near mass distances shrink because the unit of length gets smaller. Atomic clocks near mass have to do with smaller size of the atoms and more energy is involved in ticking, which may result in less ticks per second. What has to be measured is the number of oscillations of the laser beam at the foot of the tower and on top of it, both during a same period, which may involve months or weeks because the differences in outcome will be very small. Yanchilin maintains that at the foot the second is shorter, time runs faster, than on the top. So when one second passes at the top more than one second local time will pass at the foot with as a result increase of the number of oscillations. The experiment means counting the numbers below and up, eventually on the beach of Tenerife and at the observatory at 2000 m altitude to get quicker results. If the number is biggest on top then Einstein is right, but if the counting instrument at the foot is brought to the top and appears to have registered at the foot a larger number than on the top then he was wrong.
Scientists should not behave like in the dark Middle Ages when to vested authority unwelcome books with new theory were burned. Wikipedia boycotts the work of Yanchilin and its dutch department put me on a black list because I informed on Yanchilin's broadening of our horizon. At the Amsterdam universities the book was banned to a distant storehouse, not easily accessible and the students stay ignorant, dumb, not eager to search for evntual counter argumentation which is scientific duty. Such also of philosophers, but unlike the ancient ones they lean back , well paid and sleepily. Recently the kilogram was based on the Placnk, according the disciples of Einstein a constant but not so in the new theory.
Vasily Yanchilin is the first to present a qualitative explanation of gravity, which he calls a pure quantum mechanical process. Newton and Einstein only gave quantitative descriptions without knowledge of the "kern des Pudels". Taking as hypothesis that mass reduces the Heisenberg uncertainty then in the half of a particle nearest to an external mass there will be less quantum mechanical transitions towards the farthest half than the other way. Net result is displacement of the particle towards the external mass. This explains why gravity is very weak and not active in reverse.
It is interesting that Yanchilin quotes remarks (on his recent site) about origins of stars not from accumulation. Consider whether very big masses, wrongly called black holes, are not black but more than red, thus hot that like in the beginning period of the universe no transparency occurred in their spheres. Temperature drops at the outside of such spheres making radiation possible but without sufficient intensity to be observed today.
The special theory of relativity stays OK under condition of at a certain time and at a certain place. Namely according Yanchilin speed of light presumably is related to the gravitational potential of all masses in the universe. That decreases with the expansion and so speed of light also until it becomes zero at the edge of the world. There a pure quantum mechanical regime exists without definite values of speed and place. Or absence of influence by the distant masses of the universe increases the quantum mechanical "chaos". If the speed of light decreases then correction of the supernova Ia measurements is necessary and accellerated expansion disappears. The Nobel prize for it has to be returned.
The photon is regarded as having no mass but its energy is related to mass. Think about the photon as transporting mass to the outward shifting boundary of the universe. These photons get dispersed and the radiation looses energy, cannot react anymore with something if there is something at that boundary. Since energy is conserved one might look closer whether a source of dark mass is generated. Meanwhile Yanchilin connects speed of light to the total gravitational potential in a formula. If the speed of light decreases -photons are subject to gravity of the mass at their back- while the second is taken as on Earth (constant) then a differential of meters/second should be worked out together with the change of the mentioned potential. Relating these might clarify better. See the article in CJPAS on varying length of the meter.
Readers of Yanchilin's book have to pay attention to his remarks on the 1919 Mercury measurement, which was thought to prove the general theory of relativity. This however cannot be maintained any longer since at the time involved internal energy -as described by the formula relating energy to mass and speed of light- was neglected. The lense aspects mentioned in the Economist can be explained with the accepted principle of least action: A photon passing mass seeks a path with "as big steps as possible (oscillations of lower frequency) and a minimum of these". Observed is not a route close to the mass but at a distance where thus time runs slower and oscillations have lower frequencies than properly near mass!
Some years ago I checked Yanchilin's book on maths used in it. Except for a few misprints of ciphers everything was OK. But he kept calling the varying Planck the "constant of Planck" like a real distressed professor.
