Devoid § 7

A 'new' understanding of existence

Everything in the standard model of particle physics and beyond is actually multiple iterations of confined energy interacting amongst each other in several ways. And all of this keeps being regenerated from energy way below Planck scale, constantly interacting with itself. Most of these interactions are not visible to us, as they don’t emit any kind of radiation we can currently detect. Only when the accumulation of these interactions reach a certain amount and the emergent space reaches a certain size, electromagnetic radiation is emitted. This rarely happens, as there is much more empty space than there is stuff in space. What we perceive as reality is constantly passing through those iterations and, depending on the kinds of previous iterations that were already there, will either get more confined or less confined.

The confined energy caused by energy’s self interaction, the culmination of multiple iterations of that confined energy, and the synergy between all of it, is what ultimately led to existence.

A 'new' understanding of entanglement

The previous chapter revealed a hypothetical “new” form of particles that are so spread out that they don’t interact in any currently detectable way. We do however notice their effects when we reduce the amount of interactions in a region of confinement in any form.

Some of these particles were created at the first interaction of energy’s self interaction, and are nearly as large as the universe. In a way, the idea that there are hidden variables wasn’t that far off, in contrary to what experiments are making us suspect. Anything in a superposition or entanglement is interacting directly with that layer of particles, so their state changes instantly, no matter the distance between them, because that doesn’t go through any higher levels of confined energy interactions.

Both the collapse of the wave function and the instantaneously measured result of particles in a superposition (no matter the distance between them) are caused by a particle that is much bigger than we ever would imagine, as mentioned in the previous chapter. However, while this happens instantaneously, the effects will still have to propagate through all levels of confinement that emerged after the particle (that has been extremely stretched by the expansion of space in the meantime) came into existence.

That is the underlying mechanism that lets us experience entanglement in a strange way.

A 'new' understanding of time

About the chronological vs. emergent vs. physical vs. biological vs. psychological vs…

There are a lot of forms of time, and that is part of what causes time to be a complex subject. What all the forms of time have in common, is change (or lack of change) itself. We have all kinds of mechanisms that deal with all of the different ways change can occur. But there’s more to time than that.

The kind of time we’re most familiar with is a construct that helps us to make accurate assumptions about occurrences. That is how we can get to the right place at the right time most of the time. This construct has been the reason behind most of the progress humanity has made. We will always have a love-hate relationship with time, but as most things it is neither good nor bad. It just is.

Because this form of time is basically an idea, some people tend to see time as imaginary, but as mentioned earlier, there’s more to time than that.

Anything you can think of, will automatically have time. 

The thing about the cosmological constant 

The cosmological constant is very interesting, in that it isn’t cosmological and might not even be a constant.

Although science is still not convinced of what it actually is, that what Einstein himself called his biggest blunder is indeed very real. So, here’s a hint at what is actually going on.

As the previous chapters explained, there is an abundance of energy interacting with itself constantly. This interaction causes confined energy, space, and time to emerge. As there is more space emerging there is more interaction of energy creating more confined energy, space and time. This rapid creation of space makes it look like a repellent force. Because this all happens beyond the Planck scale, it is invisible to us. That is why we should call it invisible energy. But, because we can’t see stuff in the dark that doesn’t emit any light, we called it dark energy.

The earlier mentioned energy interactions that cause confined energy are causing more confinement and heavier forms of confined energy. Because of the abundance of energy everywhere, these regions of confined energy can become very massive. (Some are even massive enough to contain enough mass below the Schwarzschild radius, to be a virtual black hole.) As this happens below the Planck scale, we don’t notice much of that, but virtual particles and virtual black holes are part of it.

As mentioned before, this is all invisible to us, so we should call it invisible matter. But again, because we can’t see anything in the absence of light, we went for dark and called it dark matter. 

The cosmological constant, vacuum energy, most of dark energy, and most of dark matter are virtually the same (confined energy).

(Not?) About symmetry

Since the first interaction of energy that led to confinement, everything was and still is symmetrical. As we don’t yet have access to a bigger picture, we see symmetry breaking.

As larger and larger regions of the symmetrical particles move in different directions, they get to interact with other moving symmetrical regions in different ways. That causes some of the symmetrical parts to lose their symmetry. What emerges from those interactions appears to us as non-symmetrical entities (for lack of a better word for particles, forces and other stuff where we expected to find symmetry). Some of the regions where this occurs are so small that they are currently out of our reach. Other regions where it occurs are so large that they are currently also out of our reach. 

Until we have better ways to explore the outer edges of size, at both the smallest and largest scales, we will not be able to observe that symmetry breaking isn’t a universal occurrence. 

That is the underlying mechanism that let us to only observe symmetry breaking, but not the whole picture.

Even ’The Big Bang’ is an ongoing process.

If everything mentioned until now is understood at a deeper level, some may realize that the past event that is named the Big Bang didn’t actually start nor end, but is an ongoing process. This will remain this way for as long as energy interacts with itself (which is actually constantly happening below Planck scales).

Most (if not all) of these interactions happen below the Planck scale, and it all keeps on expanding. As the interactions cause more confined forms of energy, and as the expanding continues, it all grows past the Planck scale where most of the known forms of energy and confined energy emerge. That the Big Bang is still ongoing is mostly hidden to us by the vast amounts of interactions and confinement it takes to get to the tangible forms we call matter. 

That is the underlying mechanism that hides the ongoing so called Big Bang.

’Black Holes’ and ‘Big Bang’ are each other’s reverse.

When any form of confinement is compressed below the Schwarzschild radius, the reverse of the Big Bang happens. This can happen at any scale, and is continuously happening everywhere. The speed at which this happens is from unimaginably fast at small scales to unbelievably slow at large scales. 

Still have to write this. 

(Everything moves at the speed of 'c’)

About infinities

Most of the time, infinities are regions where the interactions of energy with itself are causing emergent effects.
