Gravity Control by Laser

[mansouryar]

Hi everybody. My name is Mohammad Mansouryar & I like the idea of the faster-than-light travels. When I look at the night stars, I ask myself would we see someday that we could travel to those star systems & their galaxies?
There is no way that mankind could go those places with the limitations regarding the speed of light. Fortunately, there are physically meaningful methods to solve that problem. I mean two classes of solutions for the Einstein’s gravitational field equations in the general relativity theory, called the traversable wormholes and warp drives. Such solutions (especially wormholes) do allow one to make a shortcut in the fabric of spacetime to reduce the needed time of passing a distance between two remote points. Those are famous notions in sci-fi literature (movies/books …) and you can find many data on them as the text, image and video throughout the internet.

The basic obstacle with them, is the required energy; they need negative energy! As far as I know, there are two main approaches to generate the negative energy density in the literature. The Casimir effect and the squeezed vacuum effect. The Casimir effect is pretty well-known, but it is confined in the walls and cavities, while we need a remarkable amount of the negative energy in free space to engineer them rather easily.
Recently, I’ve released a preprint which I think that deserves to be considered as a solution candidate, or at least part of the solution. I believe we need to focus on the concept of transporting the targeted (negative) energy localized in space, to another region of the space. That seems appropriate with the squeezed vacuum caused by the laser beams. One tool for that goal might be the soliton theory. A soliton is a self-reinforcing solitary wave (a wave packet or pulse) that maintains its shape while it travels at constant speed.
An interesting feature about my paper is that its category is quantum physics (mostly because of the quantum vacuum energy implications), the framework is about the laser beams, most of the references are from nonlinear topics, and it tries to deal with a need in the gravity! So as you see, it’s quite dependent on various branches of physics and math. In my opinion, it could be verified in a proper lab by present technology and with ordinary cost.
I hope the scientific activities could help all to have more peace and a better life. As an example, I am Iranian and I applied five papers from an Israeli author, Boris A. Malomed et al, and found them useful for my work. I believe these affairs could help different nations to understand each other better and respect each other more. Not to mention if this “physics of distance reduction” would be realized, there would be no definite sense for the words like: nations, borders, and countries!

Good luck,

P.S: Anyway, I thought it's a good idea to let you know the problem of necessity to the exotic matter for FTL travels has been moved one step forward toward its solution. I hope all the star trek science fans would find this interesting. Also, I hope a common wise of people would cause this innovation to be used in a good manner.

Welcome to the Cellar, mansouryar.
We don't ordinarily allow links in the first post but I'm making an exception, after checking them for spam, they seem integral with the subject matter.

[Undertoad]

The IP address checks out from Iran. Welcome mansouryar.

[footfootfoot]

Welcome Mohammad Mansouryar, that is an impressive first post. Not sure why you chose us but, and I think I speak for all the dwellars, well some of the dwellars, ok actually I speak for squirell nutkin and myself , we are honored. I will volunteer to try out the travel when my kids have grown up.

On an unrelated note:

I'm secretly in love with an Iranian woman. I guess I was secretly in love with an Iranian woman.

here is a link to a pdf of a q&a with Mansouryar. With illustrations of what he is talking about.

OK, I thought I was smart, but now after reading Mansouryars writings, well...let's just say I'm humbled.

Being able to understand only the basic concept, which has been touted in science fiction and comic books for years, I'll leave the determination of whether it's feasible, or bullshit, to experts.

xoxoxoBruce, Undertoad, footfootfoot, spudcon,
Thank you so much for the warm welcome. Well, I had found this forum at months ago while googling some interesting words and then I bookmarked here to deal with it at a right time later, but that affair took so much time. Since here seemed a good website to me, I decided to bring up my concerns with you members.
Based on my experiences, I don't think we can have a technical discussion on the related physics; so I think it would be cool to hear your opinions on the social ramifications of this technology instead. I mean the one I've devoted my life for that: Creating a Traversable Wormhole!

I'm secretly in love with an Iranian woman. I guess I was secretly in love with an Iranian woman.

That's cool! Let me confess this for the first time: One great motivation for me to work on this research, was the love of a woman! In my dreams at the age of 16, I would kidnapped (or impressed) her (by this thing) to become my bride … as you know this has been the main reason for nearly all the great events in the history of mankind …

What terms were you Googling that brought you to this site? This is a continued point of curiosity (what draws individuals to a community).

[mansouryar]

I think one of the key things to think about is "What is at the destination?" FTL travel in and of itself may be cool, but after a while "driving around the parking lot" will lose its appeal. Where will one go, what will be there and why would one go back?

At least to me, the main goal of FTL is colonizing other earth-like planets & spheres in other stellar systems & galaxies, in addition to finding alien civilizations. Regarding the cosmic distances in the universe, the only solution is going FTL and as long as the mentioned goals would not be reached, its appeal would not be lost, at least to me.

Another question I have is what effects will the experience of FTL have on a person's perceptions of reality? How will it change someone's sense of time and of their place in the universe. How will it change someone's sense of "self" or their concept of their spatial relationship.

Similar to breaking the sound barrier, one would be able to watch the past events, if he could exceed the light speed, then adjust a strong telescope to a targeted point; it just seemed to me a significant effect.
We are not completely strange with such affairs. For now, you can have access to anyone's info (i.e., text, voice, picture & video) on the earth almost immediately, provided both would have the related cell phones (devices) and numbers. The next step is access to physical existence of each other. We'd used to that IMHO.

One thing is the faster you move the less you experience of any individual spot; the less you see, smell, hear, etc. You lose detail but gain a better sense of totality. I expect with FTL travel you'd lose so much detail that you'd be approaching complete loss of detail,

There are billions of galaxies in the known universe; each of them having millions or billions of stars, and it is expected there must be a couple of planets rotating around each star, forming a stellar system, like our own Milky Way galaxy & solar system. Now multiply these numbers to find a huge number of the planets we'd have to verify for being worthy of living or contacting their residents. This technology shall make us busy for a long long time!

Imagine anchoring one end of a wormhole in Jupiter's atmosphere, allowing us to quickly and cheaply "harvest" abundant hydrogen. No more burning fossil fuels on Earth. How about a factory in Venus' orbit, able to use solar energy and able to dispose of toxic waste in a way that won't ruin our planet, using a wormhole to get its product to market.

You're totally right. It can solve the energy crisis. Imagine anchoring one end of a wormhole in a deep point of the earth, so you can extract the internal heat of the earth and use it in a geothermal power plant. To make it more economical, you can avoid installing new complexes. Just take out the facilities of a fossil/nuclear plant from the building, then install the new facilities in the same building and start having green geothermal energy!
Also, almost any public vehicle would not be necessary. The planes, ships, trailers, trains, metros, … anything but a personal car to go out the vacation with the family in the weekend. Replace all of them with the new transporting system! We need to move on as fast as we can:

Wormholes could even be used intra-earth. Want to go to Australia, to hook up with Zengum? You go to the "wormport" and getting to Australia would be instantaneous.

That's really awesome. I was invited to a scientific conference in the USA about 3 years ago, but the US embassy officer in Turkey didn't issue me a visa because I couldn't prove him I will come back Iran after finishing that conference. We Iranians have plenty of visa problems to travel abroad, so this is a personal motivation for me to make all the people who control others' travels … jobless!

Society isn't ready for an accomplishment of that magnitude. The ramifications far exceed those of the development of even something like the internet which governments already have difficulty regulating. It would be like using fractal patterns instead circular spherical boundaries for the holes in your plates.

I expect that nation states would commandeer such a project early in its development and that the private sector wouldn't realize any benefit until long after it became possible to do ... if ever.

[xoxoxoBruce]

I suspect you're right about nation states seizing control of that technology. Of course there would be a worm hole race... guaranteed Israel would steal it first, and the Russians would claim to have done it in the '50s.

[footfootfoot]

I think you need to partner with the guys at google and wikipedia who are the most egalitarian of the big companies. Certainly don't want mainstream companies getting involved.

But seriously, I think a Cellar think tank considering this idea would be great. Let's leave aside the issue of government control or people not being ready and think about how life would be different if it were fait accompli.

[ZenGum]

Those damn Russkies are going to get a worm-hole gap on us!
