Gravitational Interaction Mediated by Classical Zero Point Field

Quantum and classical statistics of the electromagnetic zero-point field.

A classical electromagnetic zero-point field ~ZPF! analog of the vacuum of quantum field theory has formed the basis for theoretical investigations in the discipline known as random or stochastic electrodynamics ~SED!. In SED the statistical character of quantum measurements is imitated by the introduction of a stochastic classical background electromagnetic field. Random electromagnetic fluctu...

Gravitational field of a charged mass point.

Adopting, with Schwarzschild, the Einstein gauge ((munu) = -1), a solution of Einstein's field equations for a charged mass point of mass M and charge Q is derived, which differs from the Reissner-Nordstrøm solution only in that the variable r is replaced by R = (r(3) + a(3))((1/3)), where a is a constant. The Newtonian gravitational potential psi identical with (2/c(2))(1 - g(00)) obeys exactl...

The Zero - Point Field and Inertia

Ja n 20 02 Classical gravitational spin - spin interaction

I obtain an exact, axially symmetric, stationary solution of Einstein's equations for two massless spinning particles. The term representing the spin-spin interaction agrees with recently published approximate work. The spin-spin force appears to be proportional to the inverse fourth power of the coordinate distance between the particles.

Observables and Cohomology Classes for Classical Gravitational Field

Some of the most outstanding questions in the field of gravitation and geometry remain unsolved as a result of our limited understanding of the global structure of the spacetime geometry and the role played by global spacetime diffeomorphism group in quantum gravity. Some insight into these important questions may be gained by looking at certain aspects of general covariance and observables in ...
