Exciting News for New Unified Field Theory (UFT): http://www.allanstime.com/UnifiedFieldTheory/transition_Aug00.htm Write up now available; additional validation information and experiments. Copyright ) 2000 Allan's TIME 26 August 2000 BY WAY OF REVIEW On 20 December 1999, we finished writing a paper entitled, "A Unified Field Theory and some Experimental Evidence" - hereinafter called "Original UFT paper." We submitted a 31-page shortened version of this paper to Science Magazine for publication. Because the editors felt it to be a "string-theory" approach, they suggested that it be submitted to Physical Review or the like for consideration. Rather than pursue its publication, we have felt it more appropriate to make it available to the public at this time while pursuing additional research and experimental validations for the new UFT. We took this decision in order to accelerate the work and the introduction of this new UFT that others may more quickly participate in the research and utilization. On 16 March 2000, we finished writing a paper entitled, "New Gravitational Theory with Experimental Validation" [see intro document]. The most significant aspect of this new theory is the discovery of diallel, gravitational-field lines. In this paper we reported an experiment constructed in such a way as to contrast the classical theory with the new theory. Simple pendulum clocks were used as the gravitational-field detectors. Under the experimental configuration, the new theory predicted a clock slowing, while classical theory predicted a very slight speeding up due to a mass being introduced underneath the pendulum clock. We observed clock slowing consistent with the new theory that encompasses energy density as a parameter, not just the mass. In addition, the original UFT paper predicted that between the first part of May 2000 and the middle of June 2000 "... The possibility of increased radio and electromagnetic transmission interference, the possibility of increased weather activity, the possibility of increased volcanic and earthquake activity, the Aurora Borealis should be large..." The new UFT shows how diallel lines couple energy from the sun to the earth. Since we are near solar maximum, part of these predictions naturally follow. However, the new UFT predicted that all of these activities would be at a significantly higher level than would be naturally expected from classical theory. Since these predictions have been basically validated, this adds one more validation to our list. It has been particularly interesting that the solar sunspot level has continued to rise significantly after the May-June time frame of this year. In the new theory, one of the uncertainties in the prediction of sun spot activity remains our lack of knowledge of the future magnetic field intensities of all the planets. Last year, as we modeled and predicted sun-spot levels, one particular model we used, and which fit the historic data well, gave predictions that fit this year's sun spot level more accurately than the model we eventually chose. We selected this more conservative model and, with 20/20 hindsight, we chose wrong. Working the new UFT backwards shows that the magnetic field intensities taken across the planets (particularly the gas planets) has values significantly higher than our original conservative model would give. With these two validations added to our list, plus seven additional validations (outlined below) uncovered since the writing of the original UFT paper, there are now a total to 43 validations for this new unified field theory. There were 34 experiments and/or novel explanations listed in the original paper in support of this new UFT. Also, in the original UFT paper we outlined 13 additional experiments -- two of which have now been completed - that further validate the new UFT. Listed below are ten additional experiments. Hence, we now have 20 suggested experiments that could be performed to further test the new theory. We have now made the original UFT paper available on our website www.allanstime.com. In addition, we are in the process of combining the 16 March 2000 paper with some initial experimental results on diallel-line bending and diallel-line quantum transition detection. [See brief summary report]. This combined paper is being prepared for early publication. BRIEF EXPLANATION OF THE NEW UFT This new unified field theory shows how all of the force fields work together. In 1905, Einstein suggested the particle nature of light. In 1924, de Broglie suggested the wave nature of particles. In 1928, Bohr suggested that a complete knowledge of phenomena on atomic dimensions requires a description of both wave and particle properties. Following these suggestions and supporting experimentation, it has generally been believed that it is impossible to simultaneously observe both the wave and particle aspects in a single experiment. The new UFT, however, provides great insight into the wave and particle nature of all entities and their inter-relationship. One of the most significant discoveries in this new unified field theory is the existence of diallel, gravitational-field lines. The new theory describes how every entity has a set of diallel lines emanating outward from it. These diallel lines carry the wave nature of particles and the particle nature of waves or photons. Hence, the dual nature of matter is built into this new theory. Much of this is outlined in the original UFT paper. For example, the diallel lines extending out from the earth couple with the diallel lines of a human being to create the gravitational attraction that is felt. We have conducted experiments demonstrating the existence of these diallel lines. Other experiments are under way that will show the nature, and characteristics of these diallel lines. The theory provides some extremely important information about the characteristics of nature with many new physical insights. But most profound are the spiritual insights in how these diallel lines function as part of the creation process. For example, we lear n from this new UFT that particle and information flow are not limited by the velocity of light. There are no such things as gravitons. We have now learned how gravity works and that antigravity transport is possible. We have learned that these diallel lines are a conduit for all of the various force fields and thus for all of the information and particle flow throughout the universe. ADDITIONAL EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATIONS OF THE NEW UFT Since we wrote the original UFT paper in December of last year, the following experiments or validations have been conducted or have come to our attention. These are helpful as we continue to develop coefficients for the new theory. From these initial measurements and validations we continue to refine our various predictions. Observations made at the National Physical Research Institute in 1955 by Mishra and Rao [Mishra, 1997] reveal variations of the gravitational field during the time of a solar eclipse. They observed over about a 20 minute period a peak-to-peak variation of about 1e-8 cm/s^2. Similar observations by others followed those of Mishra and Rao. The new theory shows that field enhancements occur when planetary alignments take place. During this time, the diallel lines between all three bodies line up. The UFT field equation of this case gives rise to a gravitational field modification. A solar eclipse is a classic case in point. The effects observed by Mishra and Rao are explained by the new theory in terms of the observed dynamics and in the augmentation arising from the diallel lines lining up - giving rise to a dispersion curve in the gravitational potential. During solar eclipses, deviations of the plane of oscillation of a Foucault pendulum have also been observed. These were first observed on 30 June 1954 and again on 20 October 1959, and were reported by Nobel Prize winner Maurice Allais. Since then others have observed similar effects. In the equation for the rate of rotation of the plane of oscillation of a Foucault pendulum, there are three independent terms that determine that rate. They are the spin rate of the earth, the latitude of the pendulum, and the gravitational field. From the equation of motion, one can observe that a change in the spin rate of the earth would have the same effect as a change in the gravitational field on the rate of change of the plane of oscillation of the pendulum. Hence, this observation, as with 1) above, is consistent with the new theory, since a modification in the gravitational field is predicted. A speeding up of the Foucault pendulum oscillation plane has been observed and, with additional experimental precision, the predicted speeding up followed by a slight slowing down would also be apparent. A correlation has also been observed between the magnetic field orientation of the planet Uranus and the occurrence of earthquakes. The planet Uranus is unique in that its magnetic field axis is at right angles to its spin axis. According to the new theory, the diallel lines going between Uranus and the earth, and which carry the gravitational attraction information between these two bodies, have the gravitational information flow modulated in its intensity by the magnetic field orientations of these two bodies. Because of the unique magnetic field vector direction of the planet Uranus, the principal modulation of the gravitational attraction is due to the magnetic field orientation of the vector for Uranus. In addition, according to the new theory, the electron flow between these two bodies is also modulated by the same vector. These effects can induce gravitational field gradients on the earth, which in turn increase the probability of physical disturbances, such as earthquakes and volcanic activity. Mr. Michael K. Lee, a high school teacher in Hawaii, has uncovered a correlation between the occurrence of earthquakes and solar or lunar eclipses www.damien.edu/lee/method.html. Observing the shadow of the moon over the planet's subduction zones and faults, he has correlated these lunar movements with the historical database of earthquakes that have been recorded over the last 2000 years. Mr. Lee made 70 predictions over the last two years at an accuracy rate of 40 percent. The new UFT explains why Mr. Lee's technique works. In the new theory there are two considerations relevant to this situation. First, the alignment of three significant bodies (the earth, moon, and the sun) brings about a gravitational field enhancement as the diallel lines between these three bodies become parallel. Second, the dynamics involved bringing the three bodies in and out of alignment brings about a dispersion curve behavior in the gravitational field which generates a significant gravitational field gradient as the bodies come in and out of alignment. Clearly, the induced gravitational field gradients provide a very plausible mechanism for triggering earthquake and volcanic activity. According to the new UFT, when a high energy-density source is placed on the earth, the diallel lines of the earth will be bent inward slightly toward the axis of symmetry, similar to a light beam shone through a lens. Placing a pendulum clock above a high energy-density source has resulted in an observed slowing of the pendulum due to diallel-line bending, in accordance with the new UFT. This experiment has been conducted with affirmative results and is in preparation for publication. Direct evidence of diallel-line coupling has been recently observed between the earth and the sun. One correlating aspect is observed by looking at the weather patterns on the earth on any given day and then by looking at how that correlates with the location of the sunspots on the face of the sun. One often observes aspects of a mirror image, as the new UFT would predict (see the original UFT paper for details on how this coupling takes place, and also www.tstonramp.com/~wright/wrightworld.htm). The new UFT also predicts an interesting interaction between electrons flowing in diallel lines and photons orthogonally intersecting these electrons. If these diallel-line electrons are in an excited diallel-line quantum state such that their de Broglie like wavelengths are resonant with the orthogonal, monochromatic laser photons, then an interaction probability takes place in a nonlinear environment, e.g. the face of a laser reflecting mirror. This interaction results in blue shifted reflected photons and UV radiation orthogonal to both the photon direction and the diallel, gravitational-field lines. We conducted this experiment at BYU on 21 August 2000 and detected the UV radiation coming from the diallel-line quantum transitions. This is the first experiment of its kind and a publication is in preparation. [See preview announcement.] EXPERIMENTS TO FURTHER VALIDATE THIS NEW UFT We have briefly outlined a number of additional experiments beyond those previously discussed. Some of these are being pursued at the present time. For those wishing to pursue any of these experiments, please contact our website, and additional information will be given to help you set up the experiment successfully. We are also in the process of designing an experiment that will allow the observation of the dual nature of matter in the one experiment. We have already gained significant insights in the process of setting this up, and we anticipate that this will provide a very important understanding of the new physics associated with this new UFT. A brief conceptual outline of some important experiments is given below: According to the new UFT a plumb bob will conform to the diallel lines, which define the local vertical. Hence, the bending of diallel lines could be observed interferometrically by measuring the movement of a laser mirror suspended by a string and acting as a plumb bob. At the edge of a high energy-density source, the diallel lines are bent inward. The amount of bending above a fully charged 12-volt car battery, for example, when all the facets of the theory are taken into account, is of the order of a microradian. With experimental care this can be accurately measured. This experiment is in process and preliminary and affirmative results have been obtained. [See preview announcement.] The equation for the gravitational force in the new UFT is in part a function of the energy density. Hence, a slight increase in weight occurs with the insertion of a high energy density source compared to that predicted by classical theory. A very sensitive mechanical balance scale could be made to allow this measurement. By changing the energy density on one side, the balance will be modified. Unknowingly, this experiment has been done in part by NASA, JPL [J. Anderson, et al] as they reported an "extra tug" toward the sun on some spacecraft trajectories. In the new theory, this extra gravitational attraction is due to the presence of a high energy-density power supply used to power the spacecraft. The GPS satellite clocks pass directly between the earth and the sun every six months. Since during this eclipse, the diallel lines for the sun, the satellite, and the earth are parallel, there will be a modification of the gravitational field at the satellite. Since the clocks are sensitive to the gravitational potential, there will be relativistic frequency shift and hence a time-shift of the clocks during the eclipse. The size of the effect may be too small to be measured with the existing clocks on-board the satellites. However, some of the new clocks now being designed for space use may have sufficiently enhanced performance to show this effect. The interaction of photons orthogonal to the direction of the diallel lines is extremely interesting in this new theory. Like there are quantum levels in the elements, so there are quantum levels in the diallel lines. The quantum levels in the atoms nominally have spherical symmetry, while the diallel lines nominally have cylindrical symmetry. Like there are de Broglie wavelengths for the electrons in an atom, so there are wavelengths for the diallel-line electrons (we have chosen to call these NED waves, named after Niels Bohr, Albert Einstein, and Louis de Broglie). In the new UFT, the photons have a probability of interacting with these NED waves on a properly prepared reflecting surface. Placing a Fabry-Perot interferometer directly over a high energy-density source, with highly monochromatic laser photons driving the Fabry-Perot cavity orthogonal to the diallel lines, provides and interaction region for the excited diallel-line electrons. As the photons interact with the diallel-line electron NED waves on the surface of the Fabry-Perot mirrors, they will be blue shifted, deriving energy from the excited diallel-line electrons. The Fabry-Perot cavity increases the probability of interaction because of the multiple reflections of the laser photons. In addition, a slight but measurable quantum phase shift occurs because of the slight slowing of the velocity of light in a vacuum and because of the higher density of diallel lines, in accordance with the new theory. As part of the quantum transition, UV radiation is also emitted. Hence, three effects can be observed from this experiment: both a phase-shift and a frequency-shift of the laser photons, along with UV emissions. This also may be the first experiment to show that the velocity of light is not constant in a vacuum. In addition, this experimental configuration provides the opportunity of frequency division from the optical region of the spectrum to the RF region. This is extremely important for atomic clock metrology. As perturbing effects have been observed on the rotation rate of a Foucault pendulum during a solar eclipse, so should there be effects during a lunar eclipse. The effects will be smaller, but with care they can be measured. Similar to the above, but with different instrumentation, as perturbing effects have been observed in the gravitational field during a solar eclipse, so should there be effects during a lunar eclipse. The effects, again, will be smaller, but with additional care and proper set-up, these effects can also be measured. Correlations have been observed between the magnetic field direction of the planet Uranus and earthquake activity. As has been mentioned, this is consistent with the new UFT. In addition, the theory predicts a correlation between the same magnetic field vector of the planet Uranus and the level of sun spot activity. (See the original UFT paper for more details). The magnetic fields of gas planets are significantly larger than that of the earth. Since the attraction between two bodies is a function of their energy densities, the attraction of the moons of these gas planets will be a function of the magnetic field energy stored within each of the planets. Since the periods of the moons of the planets can be measured quite accurately, a change in the periods should have a term that correlates with changes in the magnetic field energy stored in the planet. This same measurement could be made with the earth moon system, though the effects would be smaller. Mercury pools are used in astronomy as mirrors. The orientation of the mirror is defined by the local zenith. According to the new UFT, the local vertical is defined by the diallel lines. Placing a high energy-density source under a mercury-pool mirror, the mirror would take a slightly concave shape. Therefore, a Fraunhofer wave of light impinged the surface of the mirror, would reflect off nonparallel; and this could be detected. The surface of the mercury mirror would map out the diallel-line bending. For a car battery, for example, the bending on the edges of the mirror would be of the order of a microradian. Aurora Borealis emits UV photons from diallel-line electron-quantum transitions according to the new UFT. Like the quantum levels in the atom, so there are quantum levels associated with these activated diallel-line electrons. The various spectral components of these emitted UV photons could be detected and measured with a UV spectrometer or with a fused silica quartz prism. Such a prism separates the UV spectral components (wavelengths). This prism coupled with an appropriate separation slit and detection mechanism would provide important information about the diallel-line electron, quantum states. CONCLUSIONS The general field equation given in the original UFT paper has lead to many insights and discoveries. However, we can see that we are still in the very beginnings of our understanding. We continue to learn and define various coefficients such that accurate calculations and predictions can be made. As we said in the conclusion of the original paper, "Much more development is needed to fully appreciate this new unified field theory. Taken to its completion and used properly, we believe it could greatly bless the inhabitants of the earth." The work will progress much more rapidly if others will join in the experimentation and in developing understanding of the theory of how these diallel lines function. We have set up our website as a catalyst to this end and experimental results are regularly written up and published there. Our work has been greatly assisted by friends and colleagues as they have discovered and shared information consistent with the new UFT. Again through our website this information is openly shared. We deeply appreciate the support we have enjoyed from family, friends, and colleagues. They have provided much useful information and have contributed much. We have felt the blessings of the Creator in understanding a small aspect of that which he has created. We have been given a glimpse of the harmony and purposes thereof. We have seen enough to see that the long-term ramifications of this new UFT are enormous - both as it effects society and as it effects each of us individually. Our goal in regard to this new UFT is to see that it is used to maximum benefit of humankind as understandings, insights, and applications evolve. We have seen a fulfillment of Goethe's great insight, when creative ideas are received and acted upon. He said, "...The moment one definitely commits oneself... [to follow this path of truth] Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way." We thank all of those who have assisted so significantly, and especially we thank the hand of Providence. David W. Allan
