A probable identification of the graviton

Although the gravitational force of particles has been measured, and the graviton that’s supposed to carry it has been hypothesized, no particle has been detected that can be identified as carrier of the gravitational force. Well, this work is an attempt at doing just that.

 

We build our understanding of the subject matter by studying the other forces of nature, and how they relate to the particles that carry them. We begin with the electromagnetic force which, in reality is that of the magnetic electron that becomes electricity when it moves. And so, we concentrate on the magnetic properties of the electron.

 

The electron is a small particle whose behavior can be studied by examining what it does to a bar that’s made of iron and has been magnetized by lining up the electrons it contains “head to tail.” What this does, is cause the electrons to create what has been termed a “magnetic field” around the iron bar. So the question is this: What’s that field made of ?

 

That field is made of particles which are even smaller than the electron. They exit the head of the electron at the speed of light, turning themselves into de Broglie wave-particles, and re-enter the electron at the tail. We can see this effect by placing a cardboard on the magnetized iron bar and sprinkle it with powdered iron. The powder lines up along the field lines while bulging outward and looking like an elongated football. This indicates that the particles are themselves polarized, having a head and a tail of their own.

 

We now get two identical iron bars and magnetize them. Placing them head to tail, they attract each other. Placing them head to head or tail to tail, they repel each other. Why is that? We can see why when we look at the magnetic field that’s made by the wave-particles. The moment they move out of the electron’s head, they turn around and fly in the direction of the electron’s tail where they again turn around just before they enter the electron at its tail.

 

And so, when we place the two magnetized bars head to tail, what comes out the head of one bar is absorbed by the tail of the other, and the bars attract each other in response. When we place the bars head to head, the exiting wave-particles push each other, causing the bars to do likewise. When we place the bars tail to tail, the wave-particles advance directly toward the tail of the other bar rather than turn around and enter at the tail of their own bar. That’s because the direct line is the path of least resistance. This causes the bars to repel each other, but the repelling proves to be less forceful than the head to head positioning.

 

What does that do to a universe that’s made of self-duplicating Alpha (A) particles? It turns the universe into one that has a second means of communication in addition to the familiar electro-magnetic wave. The pendulum that swings in sympathy with another pendulum confirms this hypothesis.

 

The difference between the two means of communication, however, is that the electromagnetic wave can act only on a receiver that’s designed to receive it, amplify it and modulate it. By contrast, the de Broglie wave-particle is created by a disturbance that causes it to travel throughout the universe, modulating the field of every object it encounters—almost in a Newtonian fashion—including the nearby pendulum and our brain tissues.

 

We must now consider the de Broglie matter-wave to be the graviton we’ve been looking for.
