迈向星际任务:零点场惯性共振归零

Toward an Interstellar Mission: Zeroing in on the Zero-Point-Field Inertia Resonance

Bernhard Haisch, Alfonso Rueda

摘要:

虽然星际任务的概念仍然是一个不可否认的遥远的可能性,但它已经成为科学讨论的一个合法话题,正如NASA最近的几项活动和计划所证明的那样。一种方法是通过数量级来推断当今的技术;另一种方法是找到物理学中的新机制,并寻找可能的新物理定律。最近关于零点场(ZPF)或电磁量子真空的工作,在后者方面很有希望,特别是关于物质的惯性可能性,至少部分归因于物质中夸克和电子与ZPF之间的相互作用。自1996年以来,在帕洛阿尔托的洛克希德·马丁先进技术中心和长滩的加利福尼亚州立大学,NASA资助的一项关于这一概念的研究(独立于BPP计划)一直在进行。我们报告了这项工作的新进展:对于电子的特定情况,康普顿频率下的惯性产生过程的共振将同时解释电子的惯性质量和运动电子的德布罗意波长,这是戴维森和格默在1927年首次测量的。这条研究路线正在导致电动力学、惯性、引力和物质的波动性质之间非常有启发性的联系。

英文摘要:

While still an admittedly remote possibility, the concept of an interstellar mission has become a legitimate topic for scientific discussion as evidenced by several recent NASA activities and programs. One approach is to extrapolate present-day technologies by orders of magnitude; the other is to find new regimes in physics and to search for possible new laws of physics. Recent work on the zero-point field (ZPF), or electromagnetic quantum vacuum, is promising in regard to the latter, especially concerning the possibility that the inertia of matter may, at least in part, be attributed to interaction between the quarks and electrons in matter and the ZPF. A NASA-funded study (independent of the BPP program) of this concept has been underway since 1996 at the Lockheed Martin Advanced Technology Center in Palo Alto and the California State University at Long Beach. We report on a new development resulting from this effort: that for the specific case of the electron, a resonance for the inertia-generating process at the Compton frequency would simultaneously explain both the inertial mass of the electron and the de Broglie wavelength of a moving electron as first measured by Davisson and Germer in 1927. This line of investigation is leading to very suggestive connections between electrodynamics, inertia, gravitation and the wave nature of matter.
