The Generation of Ætha

Disclaimer: The following images represent a concept, not a fully mature science, and are only intended as a means to indicate the possibilities of this type of orbital mechanics. Other variations may prove to be more correct and reflect the real world  more precisely. Others are encouraged to explore these configurations personally, hopefully in more depth and detail.

The series of illustrations below were created with KnotPlot (Software by Rob Scharien). To view these images animated in real time, and to be able to manipulate the parameters, it is suggested that the reader download a copy of KnotPlot, which is a shareware offering. Click the link below to go to the download site.

KnotPlot is an excellent program designed to analyze and untie complex knots, but also works wonderfully to simulate the type of orbit that is suggested by ÆTheoRæm. It is worth the trouble to learn how KnotPlot works (which should take about an hour) to be able to try out the example below. Enter the values in the table below and then click CREATE. Vary the settings as shown below and then clock GO.

Basic Loop

The Ætha begins as continuous circuit loops that have a forward speed. These loops are reconnected as a mobius so that there is a permanent twist in the orbital path. These loops are in a condition of centrifugal tension.

Loop with 6 Standing Waves

Additional harmonic frequency  components are overlaid resulting in the formation of standing wave nodes. These nodes are in angular alignment with the inflections of the mobius.

Coiled Ætha Particle

The combination of centrifugal force and mobius links result in tremendous internal torsional moment that will produce coils that collapse inward to conserve momentum. The actual motion of the Ætha is a 'Rolling Sock' type of movement

Spring 2.13 On
Charge   Off
     

Regenerated Ætha

During collisions this pattern is regenerated and refreshed. It can be clearly seen that whatever the form of mass exists at this level, roughly one half is always moving in one direction, and the other half the opposite direction along the translation axis. Without this regeneration at frequent intervals, the loops would eventually decay. This decay has no opportunity to occur within isotropic space, as the collision frequency far exceeds the decay rate.

 

Dynamic Settings:
Spring   Off
Charge   Off
     

Motion thru Space

During movement through space,  Æthum always move along the Z axis. There is a greater movement of mass in the direction of translation than in the opposite direction due to the constriction formed by the venturis at the nodes.

Hint: Slide the vcphi control back and forth to see how the mass must move to accomodate acceleration.

Dynamic Settings:
vcA .828  
cyl-rad 1.69  
     

Depleted Ætha

Unregenerated, the loop woulds soon degenerate into a low energy version of itself when first launched. The loss of angular momentum would be returned to the Universal Vortex as general rotation of the entire vortex. In this state they are no longer able to translate in the forward direction, and form a vast low mobility population at the Universe margin. This forms a barrier or skin about the Universal Vortex that prevents the uncontrolled expansion of the Universe.

Comments:

This orbital knot really illustrates the concept of long term decay in the orbitals of the aetha. Once the basics of KnotPlot are mastered, try varying a few parameters to see the results. Some decay modes are apparent only after letting the program run for a very long time, which can be seen by setting dstep larger (time quicker).

For a realistic view add a little thermal motion and watch how this affects the stability.

Use the CREATE button to regenerate the particle. The animation can be stopped at any time by clicking the GO button.
