Where Does Universal Expansion Equal Gravitational Attraction?

Authors: Chris O'Loughlin
Comments: 9 pages

A comparison of the attractive motion experienced by masses due to gravitational interaction over relatively short distances with the recessional motion of masses at relatively large distances (that adhere to the velocity increases described by Hubble's v = Hr relation) is presented to demonstrate the similarities between the two motions. Based on the similarities of the two motions, and the observation that gravitational acceleration decreases as distance increases while recessional acceleration decreases as distance decreases the distance at which the two accelerations are equal in magnitude but in opposite directions resulting in zero net acceleration is calculated and compared to similar results provided by Chernin et al. [1]. The summation of the attractive gravitational acceleration and the recessional acceleration is presented and plotted depicting a smooth, continuous transition from gravitational attraction to universal expansion. The underlying cause of these accelerations is not addressed.

The Evaporation of Common Sense

Authors: Ron Bourgoin
Comments: 3 pages

Common sense left the human mind a hundred years ago. It was forced out by relativity theory. This wildly imaginative work of fiction displaced all the logic humankind had labored so long to establish. People loved it. They were set free of the constraints of disciplined thought. But today we have a problem: relativity and all it has sprouted has taken us down a blind alley.

Applications of Euclidian Snyder Geometry to Space Time Physics & Deceleration Parameter ( DM Generated DE Replacement?)

Authors: Andrew Beckwith
Comments: 59 pages. 30 minute talk for the Dark Side of the Universe conference, Leon, Mexico, to be delivered in the morning of June 5 , 2010

Contains specific elaboration of material on Glinkas quantum gas hypothesis, as far as a counting algorithm, and also attempts to show possible commonality between semi classical theories, and brane world interpretations ( higher dimensions) while addressing the issue of what are the implications of a small graviton mass in 4 dimensions, i.e. the violations of the correspondence/ complimentarity principle.

Warp Drive Basic Science Written For "Aficionados". Chapter I - Miguel Alcubierre.

Authors: Fernando Loup
Comments: 37 Pages. The Warp Drive as a Dynamical Spacetime is one of the most interesting Spacetimes of General Relativity and is being heavily studied inside arXiv.org.See for example the arXiv papers 1001.4960, 0904.0141,0710.4474, gr-qc/0009013,gr.qc/0110086,gr.qc/9905084,gr.qc/9702026 or the Post Doctoral Dissertation Thesis gr-qc/9805037. We feel that it is time for viXra to have its own papers exclusively devoted to this Dynamical Spacetime:The Warp Drive

Alcubierre Warp Drive is one of the most exciting Spacetimes of General Relativity.It was the first Spacetime Metric able to develop Superluminal Velocities.However some physical problems associated to the Alcubierre Warp Drive seemed to deny the Superluminal Behaviour. We demonstrate in this work that some of these problems can be overcomed and we arrive at some interesting results although we used two different Shape Functions one continuous g(rs) as an alternative to the original Alcubierre f(rs) and a Piecewise Shape Function fpc(rs) as an alternative to the Ford-Pfenning Piecewise Shape Function with a behaviour similar to the Natario Warp Drive producing effectively an Alcubierre Warp Drive without Expansion/Contraction of the Spacetime. Horizons will exists and cannot be avoided however we found a way to "overcome" this problem.We also introduce here the Casimir Warp Drive.

Deceleration Parameter Q(z) and the Role of Nucleated GW 'gravition Gas' in the Development of DE Alternatives

Authors: Andrew Beckwith
Comments: 9 pages, 3 figures. Key words inserted, PACS, and an additional figure put in, to discuss what may be needed in order to obtain a rate equation. Comparison with the case of solar axions , and their flux upon the Earth's surface raised. For possible presentation at the FF 11 conference, in Paris, pending their review. Already submitted to an IOP journal for review/ possible publication.

The case for a four dimensional graviton mass (non zero) influencing reacceleration of the universe in five dimensions is stated, with particular emphasis upon if five dimensional geometries as given below give us new physical insight as to cosmological evolution. A comparison with the quantum gas hypothesis of Glinka shows how stochastic GW/ gravitons may emerge in vacuum nucleated space, with emphasis upon comparing their number in phase space, as compared with different strain values

Quantum Corrections to the Gravitational Potential and Orbital Motion

Authors: Ioannis Iraklis Haranas, Vasile Mioc
Comments: 3 pages, Submitted to the ROAJ, Vol. 20 , No. 2, 2010

GRT predicts the existence of relativistic corrections to the static Newtonian potential, which can be calculated and verified experimentally. The idea leading to quantum corrections at large distances consists of the interactions of massless particles, which only involve their coupling energies at low energies. Using the quantum correction term of the potential we obtain the perturbing quantum acceleration function. Next, with the help of the Newton-Euler planetary equations, we calculate the time rates of changes of the orbital elements per revolution for three different orbits around the primary. For one solar mass primary and an orbit with semimajor axis and eccentricity equal to that of Mercury we obtain that Δωqu = 1.517x10-81 o/cy, while ΔMqu = -1.840x10-46 rev/cy.
