Hard as Maple

The old saying is “Hard as H@#$!”  I now use the new, more accurate saying, according to me, which is Hard as Maple!

I recently decided I needed to repair one of the maple glass doors (shown in photo).  This was to be an easy task, simply to drill a couple holes in the maple (about an inch deep) with my ordinary electric drill motor.  The part that wrinkled my plans was the fact that I was drilling into the end-grain of the maple.

I first tried one of my old antique drill bits.  It came in a set of 40 year old Craftmen’s that I bought at an antique store some years ago.  I thought they were pretty sharp bits, given their age.  Unfortunately, ten minutes of hard drilling produced only about a quarter inch indent in the maple end-piece.  The bit was hot as hell!  Well, that’s another old saying.

So, I went to my toolbox and pulled out another bit.  This one was newer, purchased within the last couple years from a big box home improvement store.  I drilled and I drilled and I drilled.  In about five minutes, with quite a bit of smoke, I had my hole.  Maple end-grain is damned hard.  I wonder how it compares to steel?  There’s probably a reason they use it for the lanes of bowling alleys LOL.

Tunnels in the Aether

Any visualization of the structure of the aether that involves rigidness runs afoul of common sense (at least it does for me), because light can travel in any arbitrary direction as well as any other arbitrary direction.  This seems to imply an on-the-fly structurable aether.  Some may call it self-organizing.  I think these structures are bounded by aether discontinuities, which themselves are the result of energy moments transferred in the aether (in mostly a circular fashion).

On-the-fly aether structures may be formed by impedance aether discontinuities. Aether discontinuities are boundary conditions.  Seemingly, the transit of some form of energy moment in the aether must be cause for an aether-discontinuity style of self organization that creates tunnels in the aether.  Because aether discontinuities are able to reflect/refract energy moments, created tunnels may act as coaxial transit tubes for the transmission of light. The traversal of the transverse component of light could happen as either a transverse wave or as a portion of a helical wavefront, following the self-organizing path.

Aether (coaxial) tunnels may result from the ability of discontinuities to reflect moments of energy. Discontinuities in the aether could possibly support two modes of transfer: longitudinal and transverse/helical. One could think of these structures as light transmitting coaxial circuits.

The author of YT site Theoria (which is not related to this author/site) – has in the past mentioned the idea of light coaxial circuits.

So, what is the spearhead for the propagation of light?  What is it that initiates the self organization and the creation of the tunnel? My opinion on this matter is that it’s the longitudinal component that paves the way for everything else. The longitudinal energy self organizes the aether as it goes – as the moments of that energy are transfered through it.  The discontinuity provides a transverse or rotational/helical path for the transfer of energy moments. The ping-pong action of quantum aether entanglement then follows via the reflections of longitudinal compression-rarefaction actions in the medium.

It’s the entanglement part that interests me, more so than the propagation of light, proper.  The other stuff I study just because it’s in the road, and needs to be moved before other progress can be made.

Why Bessel Vortex Beams Entangle Things

The bessel vortex beam can facilitate entanglement between its own photons and other quantum objects, such as individual photons or the photons contained by atoms and molecules.  It’s an energy-to-matter or an energy-to-energy sort of interaction, depending upon whether the moments are transverse, longitudinal, torsional, or helical.  Helical energy implies both transverse and longitudinal component moments.

Entanglement is like a longitudinal impulse laser, lasing single “photon” moments of energy between two discontinuities in the aether. The transverse energy in the beam interacts easily with matter, the longitudinal energy in the beam interacts directly with other moments of energy via the aether discontinutities that those moments manifest.

As transverse components tend to interact highly or be absorbed, entanglement may depend on a combination of the longitudinal momentum and potentially the aether-scale torsional/helical features of longitudinal wavefronts.  Entanglement may be hidden simply because most detection schemes depend on the usual transverse mode interactions of (light) energy with matter.  IMO, entanglement is entirely a Newtonian, classical physics concept.

It’s odd to think of energy-to-energy interactions, but physics has long embraced the effect via the known behaviour of trapped entangled pairs of photons.  Obviously, in such cases, there is energy-to-energy interaction, but it is via the intermediary of matter or (more often) just of the aether by itself, and more suscinctly the aether discontinuities rendered by the energy in the aether.

Entanglement and forward propagation paths may be completely separate from one another

The energy-to-matter interaction is a facet of the surface area presented by a transverse wave.  A helical or torsional wavefront may impart interaction features to both the energy within the atom and the spin of the atom, separately. Such a wavefront would be associated with the primary point-source aether-scale longitudinal momentum, and not the transverse waves, which are secondary derivative waves.  The longitudinal pulse has diminished interaction with matter, due to its lower surface area presentation (point source).  However; it is needed to create the form factor of the helical wavefront, which then can affect the spin of an atom or of its photons.

While transverse energy is often absorbed, any longitudinal momentum, including (potentially) any superimposed aether-scale torsional energy, impinges on aether discontinuities, and may be fully or partially reflected.  Thus, those moments contribute to a ping-pong action of lengthy entanglement.  The path followed by the ping-pong moments of entanglement need not remain aligned with the original path (of transverse/longitudinal/helical energy), which itself may form an entirely different vector (by, for instance being reflected from a mirror).  After the originating photons have left the source, the entanglement and forward propagation paths may be completely different.

Creating entanglement seems often to involve squeezing photon moments into very confined spaces, such as the 1D lattice of a crystal, or the small aperture of a laser borne bessel vortex beam.  But why is this the case?

The hidden nature of entanglement may be due to the longitudinal + torsional/helical features of the wavefronts involved.

In the past I’ve tried to answer this question by thinking about what components make up the system of entanglement.  Recently, my thoughts were about the bessel vortex beam, and its system of components.  It dawned on me that it may not be so much what is in the system of components, but more about what is not.

Normally, a standard gaussian laser beam will have a good deal of what we might call self interference.  If the longitudinal impulse spouts the transverse one in a self-organizing path of a tubular discontinuity in the aether, then the secondary transverse wave represents a lot of self-interference for the longitudinal component.  The interference is in the form of the secondary transverse waves.

My “Tunnels in the Aether” post describes light conduits that are like coaxial cables in the aether. These are the standard light or laser light scenarios, which involve a large amount of self interference.

What does energy transfer in a crystal do that a bessel vortex beam probably also does?  It eliminates interference.  The helical wavefront of the BV laser beam spearheads a clearing of the aether region within it, such that it may facilitate a “coaxial” return path in its center.

Entanglement is not so much about what is there, but what is not there: interference.  So, any old laser beam (or for that matter, ceiling light) might entangle things with their rays, if it were not for the fact of interference.  Any construct that eliminates the interference will enable entanglement.

A Single, Elemental Clay

The free will thing is the biggest question for humans, and the most oblique and cloudy to understand. Maybe this has to do with quantum threads that live teetering on the edge of chaos. Just as a pseudo random number generator falls short of randomness, so does the typical view of free will fall short of accommodating our perception of how much of that (free will) we really have.

So, the idea that random choices that are not really random just look like free will, is an idea that falls far short of really explaining how the human choices we make are freely made.  For now, the answer remains a secret.  but perhaps the supernatural plays a part.

We are awash in connections (those being between quantum objects), yet with increasing distance between those quantum-endpoints, the interaction with the most far-flung of those objects decreases, such that we are mostly affected by our immediate surroundings and our inner selves (where both or all quantum endpoints are “homed” within ourselves, and only a few are extended).

This is forutunate, or we’d be composite beings with no self identity.  If everything comes from the aether – even all the energy that is manifested as moving bumps within it, and if matter also is formulated as closed circular self-perpetuating bumps within that aether, then we can say for sure that the universe is made of a single elemental clay.  God’s clay.
