Virtual Particles and the Macro Universe

Virtual Particles ( + and - varieties of the same particle) appear and then cancel each other out after some time. Surprisingly the proportionality between time and energy is deep and quantifiable.

The relationship between time and energy, as illustrated by the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, raises interesting questions about the nature of time in the context of energy. This principle suggests that the product of the uncertainties in energy (ΔE) and time (Δt) is at least as large as the reduced Planck constant divided by 2. This interplay between energy and time prompts the question: Can time be quantified in terms of energy?

Yes, it can!
There is a parallel here to how we interpret time in terms of distance, as seen in the concept of a light-year, where 1 light-year equals the distance light travels in one year. This analogy suggests a possible equivalence between time and energy, albeit with some uncertainty in certain circumstances.

If we take this analogy further, one could speculate that 1 second could represent a significant amount of energy. Given the mass-energy equivalence principle (E=mc²), this implies that time might also correlate with mass, as mass is a form of energy. Since mass influences gravity, this could mean that the shape of space is, in part, determined by time, or at least has some sort of equivalence.

Moreover, if we consider that 1 second could relate to a substantial amount of distance, it suggests a potential equivalence between distance and energy. This notion opens up a fascinating dialogue about the fundamental connections between these basic aspects of our universe. How might these potential equivalences impact our understanding of spacetime and energy? Could we consider Time as the driver for Dark Energy (there is already a strong connection via the Hubble Constant and the Age of the Universe)?

So E=mc^2 and E=mt^2 and t=c

The dipole of the galaxy's EM is no small distance, relatively speaking, that is.

Gravity is monopolar, NOT dipolar, and magnitudinous inverse square, as in accelerating expansion to infinity and/or obvious destination of spin gravity (fractal zooms structure of universe):

Light's example of gravity to an open, an opening, system, including from here, everywhere here is as source, to there, everywhere there is (the window of opening and "through the looking glass"), accelerating in expansion:


All fundamental forces, fundamental interactions, cannot be closed and closing systemic. At least one must be open (opening) systemic, be expansive, and it is gravity.

If the universe were spherical, assuming its age as the universe's radius aligns with a correct calculation of the Hubble Constant. Could substituting energy for the universe's age and applying the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle's time/energy relationship provide insights into Dark Energy?


1. Spherical Universe and Hubble Constant
If the universe were perfectly spherical, we could model its age as its radius. Current estimates of the universe's age and size align with the Hubble Constant calculations, approximately 70 km/s/Mpc.


2. Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle
This principle relates the uncertainty in energy (ΔE) to the uncertainty in time (Δt) through the relationship ΔE - Δt ≥ ħ/2, where ħ is the reduced Planck constant. It highlights that at very small scales, energy and time are intrinsically linked.



3. Energy-Time Relationship
Substituting the universe's age with energy involves considering the universe's total energy equivalent, based on mass-energy equivalence. This could introduce quantum fluctuations at cosmological scales.



Relating to Dark Energy

  • By leveraging the energy-time relationship from the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, one might propose that the universe's expansion (energy aspect) and its age (time aspect) are quantum mechanically correlated.

  • This could suggest that quantum effects at cosmological scales, although typically small, might influence or even drive the dynamics attributed to Dark Energy.

All fundamental forces, fundamental interactions, cannot be closed and closing systemic. At least one must be open (opening) systemic, be expansive, and it is gravity.
Yes, and since you have raised it, gravity as a consequence of mass must also be related to time in some fundamental way. Presumably
