In Search of Navier-Stokes Model of the Solar System

Authors: Victor Christianto
Comments: 17 Pages. [Corrections made by viXra Admin to conform with scholarly norm]

In this paper, this author will discuss a nonlinear cosmology model inspired by analogy between cosmology phenomena and low temperature physics, especially superfluid vortices dynamics. We described: (a) a nonlinear cosmology model based on Navier-Stokes turbulence equations, which then they are connected to superfluid turbulence, and (b) the superfluid turbulence can lead to superfluid quantized vortices, which can be viewed as large scale version of Bohr’s quantization rule, and (c) this superfluid quantized vortice interpretation of Bohr’s rule allow us to predict quantization of planetary orbits in solar system including new possible orbits beyond Pluto. This paper is intended as a retrospect of what happened after the publication of earlier papers, and also some related ideas we developed since that time. In the second section we also discuss a recent development in matter-creation hypothesis, by virtue of unmatter concept and its extension. It is our hope that the new proposed view will inspire younger physicists and cosmologists to develop more realistic nonlinear cosmology models. And although some of our predictions since 2004 have come to observed data, we also hope the ideas presented here can be further verified with observation data.

Evaluating the Alignment of Astronomical Linear Polarization Data, Intermediate Level Software Version 2

Authors: Richard Shurtleff
Comments: 84 pages, Mathematica Notebook, 32 figures, 1 table

The Hub Tests are two polarization alignment tests, designed with polarized astronomical sources in mind. By analogy, if the polarization directions were magnetic needle compass directions, then one test finds the best virtual North Pole and determines how well the polarization directions correlate with Local North. That is the 'alignment test'. The second test, the 'avoidance' test, asks how well the directions correlate with Local East. The tests are further described in an article, arXiv:1311.6118, where the tests are applied to an online data set measured, analyzed and published by others. This Mathematica notebook is meant to serve as a practical introduction to the Hub Tests. By replacing the DATA used here, a USER can evaluate other data sets.

Can We Ever Travel Faster Than Light?

Authors: Arieh Sher
Comments: 3 Pages. [Corrections made by viXra Admin to confirm with the requirements on the Replacement Form - Please conform]

I claim that we can travel faster than light (FTL). The concept is based on the fact that space is not an absolute void but contains fluctuating fields from which virtual particles are perpetually pop in and out. This results in a dragging force that is exerted on a moving body moving in space by space. In this answer, I suggest a conceptual way how to do it.

The Quantum-Relativistic Universe and Traveling Across Time

Authors: Ali Yousif Hassan Edriss
Comments: Pages.

In this paper I discussed some fascinating ideas like time travel and a new world containing just two dimensions and the new vision for the inflation. Also I tried to interpret some Tesla’s works about listening to the outer space and communication with intelligent life over there. I also would like to inform that the origination of these idea is the Holy Qur’an.

Toward Advances in Medicine and Interstellar Travel

Authors: Dmitri Martila
Comments: 11 Pages. submitted to the journal

The motion in a Black Hole spacetime is studied. Several new results are found, in particular about the nature of Dark Matter and Dark Energy. The energy aspect of a matter in curved spacetime is explained. It is understandable why underground detectors for particles of Dark Matter have caught absolutely nothing for so many years of work. Usually, particles have a pretty strong effect on our world. But such small corpuscles as neutrinos have the weakest effect on ordinary matter. I give convincing arguments that Dark Matter acts so weakly on our world that its direct-contact action is equal to zero. That is why Dark Matter passes through the devices that are built for its capture completely without noticing them, completely without labor and friction with these devices. Such Dark Matter is representative for the INVISIBLE world, i.e. the detectors trying to detect it locally are ''blind'', they see nothing.

The ‘Deep Space Institute’ Was Created in the Usa

Authors: Vladimir Semenovich Leonov
Comments: 8 Pages. 4 figures, in Russian [Title and Abstract translation into English made by viXra Admin - Please conform]

В США в 2019…2020 годах создан новый «Институт дальнего космоса». Исследования дальнего космоса – это формальное назначение организации. На самом деле новый институт начинает реализацию программы Белого дома по «Звездным войнам» как продолжение работ «Стратегической оборонной инициативе (СОИ) на новом витке знаний и с использованием новых космических технологий. Это следует из данной аналитической записки на основании изучения сайта института и других публикаций https://www.limitlessspace.org/. Новый институт называется Limitless Space Institute (LSI), – дословный перевод на русский язык звучит несколько непривычно «Институт безграничного космоса» или по-русски «Институт дальнего космоса». Это некоммерческая организация, в отличие от компании SpaceX Илона Маска.

In the United States in 2019 ... 2020, a new Deep Space Institute was created. Deep space exploration is the organization's formal mission. In fact, the new institute is launching the White House's Star Wars program as a continuation of the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) at a new level of knowledge and using new space technologies. This follows from this analytical note based on the study of the Institute's website and other publications. https://www.limitlessspace.org . The new institute is called the Limitless Space Institute (LSI), - the literal translation into Russian sounds somewhat unusual "Institute of Limitless Space" or in Russian "Institute of Deep Space". This is a non-profit organization, unlike Elon Musk's SpaceX.

Evaluating the Alignment of Astronomical Linear Polarization Data, Introductory Software

Authors: Richard Shurtleff
Comments: 18 pages, 2 figures

This article is a Mathematica notebook that is meant to serve as a template. User-supplied astronomical observations of transverse vectors on the sky can be evaluated, their alignment judged by the so-called Hub test. The test can be applied to any set of transverse vectors on a spherical surface, but the language here applies to linear polarization directions of electromagnetic radiation from astronomical sources. This article presents a simulation, analyzing artificial data as an illustration of the process. The analysis produces a numerical value quantifying the alignment and its significance. A visual representation of the alignment is developed, mapping regions of convergence and divergence on the Celestial sphere.

New Physics Definition

Authors: Antonio A. Colella
Comments: 11 Pages.

“New Physics” is defined as physics requirements or specifications or descriptions which never previously existed. An example of “New Physics” approximately 60 years ago, was the Higgs/Englert requirement of the Higgs force (boson) giving mass to fundamental matter particles. Two “New Physics” definition concepts are the current astrophysics community’s detection of “New Physics” in laboratories prior to analyses and my analyses of “New Physics” prior to detection in laboratories. The latter concept is the basis for a two-step Theory of Everything (TOE) physics solution, which defined 689 or 61% of all 1,134 TOE requirements as “New Physics” requirements. In contrast, the current astrophysics community has not defined a single “New Physics” requirement. Thus, this article describes “New Physics” definition and summarizes a two-step TOE physics solution.

Gravitational Event Horizon

Authors: Victor Demjanenko
Comments: 4 Pages.

A gravitational horizon is expected in the vicinity of moving black holes. Black holes are well understood to have event horizons which capture matter and light. The Kerr solution to the outer event horizon boundary is evidence of the gravitational distortion formed from rotating black holes. Rotating black holes moving relative to each other will also feel effects due to their rotation. A portion of their mass effectively disappears beyond a boundary which is the gravitational horizon.
