3.0 Conclusions.
The most significant point to emerge from this development is the
non-existence of the Hs and
Bs fields, the gravitational equivalents of the
magnetic flux intensity and the magnetic flux density. It is proposed that
the reason for this is as follows.
It is believed that there are only three basic fundamental parameters that
govern the existence of the entire Universe and everything in it. They are
(i) a four dimensional space, one of which is temporal in nature with the
other three spatial, (ii) energy, contained within the three spatial
dimensions, and (iii) a velocity parameter, c, equal to the velocity of
light, to which all existence is subject. All of these parameters are
totally invariant. Time is not a fundamental parameter because, as shown by
the dilatation effect, its rate of passage is subject to variation in the
presence of energy, and to the spatial motion of that energy, as shown
respectively in [11] and [15]. Thus time is merely a consequence of the
relative motion of, and in, the temporal and the three spatial dimensions.
It is also believed that the spatial motion of all things of whatever
nature, mechanical, electrical, atomic et al, must involve a transference of
energy from one location to another. Electrostatic charge by itself does not
hold energy, and when in motion therefore cannot convey it. This is
therefore effected by the generation, via the motion of the charge by a
mechanism as yet unknown, of the orthogonal magnetic field. Consequently the
electrostatic and magnetic fields associated with an electromagnetic wave,
can be considered as the orthogonal components of an energy field, moving in
the third direction as exemplified by the Poynting vector. The velocity of
propogation is that of light because of the absence of physical mass.
In gravitation, the primary parameter is mass, which, as of course is well
known, already contains a vast amount of energy in line with Einstein's
mass-energy relationship. Consequently, the movement of a mass automatically
involves the transference of energy, and thereby does not necessitate the
generation of a secondary parametric field to effect same. Hence the absence
of the Hs and Bs
fields in the Maxwell versions of gravitic mathematical formulation.
As a result, this form of representation of gravity is consequently somewhat
limited. Firstly, it does not provide any insight into the physics involved
in the generation of the field. Secondly, it provides no insight into the
velocity of propogation of gravitic variations. Thirdly, its solutions, as
shown in Appendix C, do not provide any information on the dynamic effects
on other bodies, but only on the nature of the generating mechanism.
However, this is perhaps as should be expected. Finally, when a physical
translational or rotational motion of the source is present, both of which
appear as extra boundary conditions in the solution to the temporal versions
of the equations, the result could give rise to mis-interpretation,
especially if these motions are variable, as neither of these motions will
effect the generation of the gravity field, apart from a secondary one, the
relativistic increase in mass of the source.
On the other hand, this form of mathematical representation of gravity does
provide a simpler and more consistent developmental analysis than that
presented in [11], especially so in the temporal direction which was not
fully covered in [11]. Accordingly while it brings nothing new to the
theory, it does provides good corroborative support.
