‘The Thermodynamic
Self-Regeneration
of
Our
COSMOS
in
the
Dialectic of Nature’.
GLOBAL STRATEGIC
HYPOTHESES.
Dear Reader,
Based
upon the observed phenomena of so-called “Dark Energy” to-date –
still only partially understood – together with Seldon’s ‘«aufheben»
meta-monad-ization’ hypothesis of ‘The Dialectic of Nature’, withthat
hypothesis carried backward to include the interconnections of “Dark Energy”,
“Dark Matter” and “ordinary matter”, or ‘Bright Matter’, Karl Seldon has
proposed a new hypothesis, that posits
for the first time, a ‘Thermodynamic Self-Regeneration of Our Cosmos’.
The
partially-known and partially-understood phenomena of “Dark
Energy” may be summarized as follows –
Nature of units: not yet known;
Birth date: not yet known;
Size scale: not yet known;
Mass scale: not yet known;
Duration scale: indefinite;
Estimated percentage of
total universe mass-energy density: » 68.3%;
Interaction modes: anti-gravity only?
What
today’s cosmologists call “Dark Energy” is, at the time of this writing, the
largely unknown and still very mysterious majority constituent of the energy
density of our cosmos – seen by the consensus of the scientific community as
constituting almost 70% of the consensus total.
It
is believed to constitute an intrinsic, fundamental “energy of [“empty”]
space itself”.
Its
per-scientific-consensus key characteristic is that, with the expansion of physical
space that it drives, it appears to maintain a constant energy density, that
is, its energy density is not diluted as space
expands, unlike the energy-density of all of the other main categories of the
content of our cosmos per that consensus.
Instead,
its energy density expands apace with the expansion of space, so that
the “Dark Energy” density of each volume unit of space – new volume units and
old volume units alike – remains always the same.
While
the, still-prevailing, “Lambda (L) Cold Dark Matter” (LCDM)
model of our total ¶known
cosmos remains the consensus cosmological model, some recent observations
indicate that the mass-energy density of “Dark Energy” may be slowly decreasing
through cosmological time, may be varying through time in other, more complex
ways, and/or across space, e.g., perhaps in the manner of a “scalar field” (as
distinct from a “tensor field” or from a “vector field”).
With
those summary particulars in mind, here is an overview of Seldon’s ‘Thermodynamic
Self-Regeneration of Our Cosmos’ hypothesis.
1. Hypothesis: Units of the “Dark
Energy” Category and “Cosmological Inflation”.
Consider
the possibility that physical space is not “empty” or “void”, but is, instead, spanned
as a self-expanding expanse of contiguous units that continually self-replicate,
therefore expanding cosmological space at an accelerating
rate. Let us call them ‘spandetrons’.
Each
contiguous ‘spandetron’ ensemble, i.e., each physical space extent, quickly
doubles in size, thereby expanding the 3-D extent of space.
Then,
all of the resulting new as well as all of the old units of space double again,
and so on.
This,
‘anti-gravity’ self-accelerating doubling, because it is as yet unimpeded
by any “Dark Matter” or “Bright Matter” gravity – since neither
“Dark Matter” nor “Bright Matter” as yet exist – creates the initial so-called “cosmological
inflation”, not the, never-yet-observed, construct of the “dilaton
particles” and the “dilaton field”.
Once
the first ‘spandetron’ unit irrupts into existence, this doubling process
begins.
But
‘spandetronic’, self-accelerating expansion of physical space too has a
limiting velocity, albeit a velocity hugely in excess of the constant velocity,
c,
the speed limit for those ‘bright’ “wavicles” of the “Standard Model” known as “photons”.
2. Hypothesis: The Genesis of “Dark
Matter” Units from “Dark Energy” Units.
The spandetronic,
self-accelerating expansion of physical space has a limiting velocity, because,
beyond that limiting velocity, many of the extant spandetrons denature
themselves, lose their capacity to self-replicate, to self-double, and become anti-anti-gravitic,
opposite to their former, anti-gravitic, self-replicative nature.
Clouds
of such ‘damaged-spandetron’, ‘contra-spandetron’ units
form, such that each such ‘contra-spandetron’ unit, or “Dark Matter” unit, made
up out of a multiplicity of former mere spandetron units.
These
“Dark Matter” units, or ‘contracton
units’, form gravitationally-bound structures, which no longer expand or space-replicate
internally, and which also constrain the replication rate of the remaining, undamaged
spandetrons/‘expandons’.
Our
cosmos grows in and by means of this opposition between “Dark Energy” ‘expandon’
units and “Dark Matter” ‘contracton’
units.
3. Hypothesis: The Genesis of
“Particle” Units from “Dark Matter” Units.
We conjecture that, inside the cores of the contracton clouds or halos, “Standard
Model” particle units are born, each a unifying physical combination of
multiple contractons. We have, as yet, no hypothesis as to the
mechanism of this unifying physical combination, but this conjecture back-fills
the same kind of combinatory, ‘«aufheben» meta-monad-ic’ patterns seen
in later arisings of new types of units, such as atom units and molecule units.
4. Hypothesis: Recurring Regenerations of Cosmological Thermodynamic Free Energy. If “Dark Energy” is at least somewhat like the way it is represented in the, prevailing, “Lambda (L) Cold Dark Matter” model of our cosmos, “LCDM” for short, then, as L is a constant in Einstein’s modified General Relativity Theory equations -- equations that so far best-model the cosmological gravitational field – then “Dark Energy” may add a constant energy density to the cosmos with every increment of its spandetrons’ space expansion: “Dark Energy” does not “dilute” itself as it expands physical space.
But
“Matter” – both “Dark Matter” and ordinary, ‘Bright Matter’ alike – are
ever-increasingly “diluted” by “Dark Energy’s” already now, again-accelerating
space expansion.
Thus,
Matters’ opposition to space expansion acceleration by “Dark Energy” is
ever-weakening.
Some
cosmologists extrapolate this to a future scenario of a “Big Rip”, wherein the
space-time fabric is finally torn asunder by an eventual super-acceleration of
“Dark Energy’s” space-expansion.
However,
from our hypothesis 1., above, that the initial “cosmological inflation” was
the work of “Dark Energy” unfettered by any presence of “Matter”
– “Dark” or ‘Bright’ – it should be expected, on the contrary, that this
dilution of “Matter” will eventually, far in the future, bring about a similar,
if somewhat weaker, ‘second cosmological inflation’ event.
Thereby,
new clouds of such acceleration-self-damaged ‘multi-spandetrons’, i.e., fresh
”Dark Matter” ‘contractons’, per our hypothesis 2., will then flood our cosmos,
thereafter re-restraining/re-decelerating spatial expansion, and giving birth
to a fresh increment of ‘Bright Matter’ as well, per our hypothesis 3.
This
would figure against the high level of by-then-accumulated cosmological
entropy, and regenerate the thermodynamic “free energy” of our cosmos, averting
any cosmological “entropic doom”.
Subsequent,
eventually-sufficient, “dilution” of “Matter” could trigger another such ‘cosmo-inflationary’
event, and so on, in an ever-expanding, ever-energetically-self-re-enriching
and, thereby, thermodynamically self-regenerating cosmological ‘space-time-matter-energy
contiguum’, mixed/hybrid «arithmos» of manifold qualitatively, ontologically
different kinds of «monads» or units – perhaps, so unexpectedly,
in a modern fulfillment of the ancient Pythagorean vision, with
modifications.
It
may, far in the future, take a technologically hyper-advanced
civilization, of ‘metan-human[oid]s’,
to survive such a universe-wide high-energy eucatastrophe, but we
today may be among the ancestors of those who will one day wield the
wherewithal to weather it.
