Tiziano Fulceri will discuss optics as a fundamental unification paradigm for gravity, Brendan Darrer will provide a detailed analysis of Subquantum Kinetics, Curtis Horn on Spinor/Quaternion GR & Mach Effects, and Isaiah Ritchey will provide an overview of his Searl Effect Generator replication project. We’ll also be hearing updates from our lab partners and finishing off the event with an open discussion by conference attendees! Optics as understood in the modern sense as the study of propagation of perturbations within a medium stands out as an all-encompassing, unifying vision for all branches of fundamental physics, even if the specific details of some regimes are not worked out yet. In fact, this vision can serve as a guide in constructing new specialized theories in the “quantum gravity” regime, in the “macroscopic quantum gravity” regime, or even in a causal, microscopic “emergent” explanation for the perturbation of the gravito-inertial field by the masses based on testable, reproducible phenomena. Brendan will present a detailed analysis of Dr. Paul Laviolette’s Theory of Subquantum Kinetics, and describes how this model allows us to analyze reported propulsion and over-unity energy technologies that cannot be explained by conventional physics. The electro-gravitic technologies which thus far have been explained using the SQK paradigm include: Townsend Brown’s electro-gravitic thruster; the Podkletnov gravity impulse beam, and the Searl disc. Curtis will cover a field theory developed by Mendel Sachs that is not well known. This theory is different from many other popular attempts at a TOE or unifications in that it is based on solid physics principles and sound physical logic. Unfortunately, the theory that results is highly non-linear and uses a mathematical framework that is outside of the standard physics curriculum since it is a spinor/quaternion formulation that combines Gravity and Electromagnetism. If Sachs theory is correct, there are profound consequences for the origin of inertial mass. We will also discuss propellent-less propulsion, including the potential of using the Breit–Wheeler process. Also, we will give an update on the Mach Effect experiment. Isaiah Ritchey will provide a detailed overview of his Searl Effect Generator (SEG) replication project, which seeks to recreate the reported energy-generation & gravity-control claims made by John R. Searl in the mid 20th century. The Searl Effect Generator (SEG) functions along the principles of a linear induction motor (LIM), but designed around a circular track for continuous motion of movable rotors. It is a magnetic prime mover of electromagnetic multi-phased cylindrical rollers over fixed stator rings and free of mechanical wear or friction. Ritchey’s work is notable in precisely following the design & construction parameters outlined by Searl.
