                          THE RESONANT VELOCITY OF SPACE
                                 by Rick Andersen

       A Keelynet listing   called  GRAVITY2.ZIP  (10/17/90)  presented  an
       unpublished paper by John R. Majka  called  "A  Different  Point  of
       View".

       There the hypothesis  was set forth that the ratio  of  magnetic-to-
       electric field "seen"  by  an  observer  of  a charged particle is a
       function of the relative motion between the particle and observer.

       Also, that the magnetic permeability  of free space and the electric
       permittivity thereof are analogous to the distributed inductance and
       capacitance, respectively, of a transmission line.

       This leads to  the suggestion that a transmission line's  RESONANCE,
       which depends on its inductance (L) and capacitance (C), corresponds
       to a RESONANT  VELOCITY of free space, that velocity being the speed
       of light (2.998E8  meters/sec).    For   the  implications  of  this
       hypothesis, see the file GRAVITY2.ZIP.

       This file serves  as  an  addendum  to J. Majka's paper.   Evidently
       Majka is not the first to seriously consider the "resonant velocity"
       idea.

       In 1986, Prentice-Hall,  Inc.  published  a  college-level  textbook
       entitled "Waveforms: a  modern  guide  to  nonsinusoidal  waves  and
       nonlinear processes", by Homer B. Tilton (ISBN 0-13-946096-9).

       On page 66  Tilton introduces the concept of "super  resonance",  in
       which he discusses  a  dual  oscillator  system (two pendulums).  On
       page 67 he illustrates a theoretical electrical version of the dual
       pendulums-- dual L-C tank circuits coupled together through back-to-
       back zener diodes.

       Tilton claims that, if the resonant  circuits  are  excited in their
       linear regions, below  a  certain  threshold,  each   L-C  tank  (or
       pendulum) will oscillate at its own independent resonant frequency.

       But when they  are  OVERDRIVEN  into the nonlinear region, they will
       act as if they had been tuned to a higher frequency simply as a

                                      Page 1





       result of the  NEW  MODE  OF  EXCITATION.  I now quote directly from
       Tilton,pp. 67,68:

                          "THE 'RESONANT SPEED OF SPACE'

            The constancy of the speed of light in free space leads to the
            now-classic equation of special relativity, gamma=(1-beta^2)
            ^(-1/2), which describes relativistic effects, with beta being
            'normalized velocity'.   Among   these   effects   are   'space
            contraction', 'time   dilation',   and  'mass   increase   with
            velocity'.

            That equation  for  gamma  can  be  'explained' by likening the
            speed of light in free space to a resonance condition.

            "An electronic circuit analogy was announced by Schelkunoff
            in 1938 [footnote 1] in which it was shown that the intrinsic
            impedance of  free space is  analogous  to  the  characteristic
            impedance of  a  network,  and  the  Q  of  a lossy  medium  is
            analogous to  the Q of a network.  That analog is in common use
            today in antenna design.

            "That electronic circuit analogy  has been developed further by
            the author  [Tilton]  in  accordance with the  ideas  that  the
            permittivity and  permeability  of  free space are analogous to
            the  capacitance  and  inductance,  respectively,  of  a  tuned
            circuit.  In  this extension of the analogy, the speed of light
            becomes analogous  to the resonant frequency of a tuned circuit
            [footnote 2].

            "While apparently it is not possible to decrease  the  value of
            either the  permittivity  or  permeability  of  free  space and
            thereby 'tune' it to a higher 'resonant speed', the following
            question nevertheless presents  itself:  Can  a  region of free
            space be  EFFECTIVELY  tuned  to  a  higher resonant  speed  by
            exciting it  in   the  manner  of  the binary systems described
            above?  This question remains unanswered." [End quote]

       So we see that John Majka seems to  be  in  good  company with other
       scientists who have been pondering this idea at least as far back as
       the 1930's.

       As food for thought, I'd like to pose the question:   Is it possible
       that the notorious    "Philadelphia   Experiment"   utilized   these
       principles to warp space-time in 1943?

       Tilton speaks of possibly "raising" the resonant speed of space --
       but what about LOWERING it?

       If Einstein was correct in saying  that a mass cannot be accelerated
       all the way  up to light speed, can we perhaps "cheat"  by  bringing
       DOWN the effective speed of light in a given area of space?

       It would seen  that  by  manipulating  electromagnetics  properly we
       might be able to alter a region of space and thus be able do perform
       all sorts of stange magic tricks.

               Any comments relating to these points are welcome!
