Replacement of Space-Time with Superfluid Space and Restoration of Newton’s Dynamic Ether

Abstract

Although it has been approximately 80 years since the graviton was theoretically predicted, it has not yet been discovered. To resolve this puzzle, this study developed a model wherein the gravitational force is incorporated into the fundamental structure of the universal space. A physical object diminishes the energy density of space exactly by the amount of energy it contains. The resulting area of space with a diminished energy density is pushed in the direction of the closest area with the lowest energy density. A physical object situated in the corresponding space with a lower energy density follows the motion of this area towards the closest area with the lowest energy density. Therefore, there is no direct gravitational force between the physical objects and gravity is incorporated into the variable energy density of the space. This model of gravity has advanced Newton’s ether model with the extension of the mass-energy equivalence principle to space and works without the hypothetical graviton.

Gravity as a Result of Symmetry between Matter Energy and Space Energy

“…where 𝑚 is the rest mass of the physical object, 𝑉 is the volume of the object and 𝜌 is the minimal energy density in the centre of a fast-moving physical object [3]. Equation ( 7) is confirming that the Lorentz factor depends on the energy density of superfluid space 𝜌 in the center of a fastmoving physical object and it is the bridge between the special theory of relativity and the general theory of relativity.…”

“…The last ten years are an intense period where different researchers suggest that universal space is a type of energy, they call it "superfluid quantum space", "physical space", "physical vacuum" and other names [1][2][3]. Einstein's idea that universal space is empty and devoid of physical properties has shown weak points, especially in describing the physical origin of gravity.…”
