Dear Ted,

 I expect by then to be recovered sufficiently from the aftermath of the heart attack to undertake such a presentation, given that my travel expenses can be provided.  However, it would of course be necessary that he is interested in such a presentation, since our work is definitely "out of the box" by most standards.

 A proposed title would be: "Vision 2002: The Emerging New Physics for the New Millennium".

 I will contact him to see if he is interested in such a presentation, etc. and scope out the purpose of the meeting a bit more.  I'm slowly putting the finishing touches on the concept of the supersystem, which is needed in any unified field theory work, and which has been rather totally neglected in U(1) electrodynamics.   So we should have some timely information on the supersystem ready by then, including necessary briefing slides.

 Also the AIAS (Alpha Foundation's Institute for Advanced Study) now has sufficient papers published in the hard journals to make the presentation meaningful from a rigorous technical basis, even though my own presentation will be conceptual and an "overview".  The latest approved AIAS paper, to be published in Found. Phys. Lett. hopefully this year, is M.W. Evans, P.K. Anastasovski, T. E. Bearden et al., "Anti-Gravity Effects in the Sachs Theory of Electrodynamics", in press.

 Some pertinent papers (same AIAS authors, usually either 14 or 15) include the following:

 Basic subjects covered would probably involve (1) EM energy from the vacuum (we have a paper in Physica Scripta, e.g., with more than a dozen such mechanisms, most verified in the physics literature, (2) revolutionary "new" or neglected concepts in medicine (the Prioré approach and its extensions; the Prioré work was proven in hundreds of experiments and is in the French scientific literature, with papers by eminent scientists before the work was suppressed), (3) future propulsion systems (in unified field theory, gravity and antigravity come out of the model naturally, though it requires the supersystem concept to easily understand it, and --- if I complete it by then, which I hope to do --- (4) a very surprising exposé and retranslation of quantum decoherence to show the unexpected role and importance of the supersystem. 

 On this latter quantum coherence and decoherence, e.g., an ion can be in two places simultaneously, when in a mixture of quantum states, and breaking out of such "mysterious" and "eerie" aspects of quantum reality and into the "sane" realm of macro single-state reality is a function of the environment's energy interaction with the quantum "mixed states" system. In other words, it is the interaction of the environment which decoheres the mixed states.   It has just been experimentally shown by some researchers (published in Physical Review) that indeed this external environmental reaction can be engineered (they did it with multiple lasers) to "drive" the mixed states situation and even control it.  The supersystem concept extends that notion to direct engineering of much more.

 The supersystem is defined as consisting of three components: (1) the EM system and its dynamics (this is the ordinary stuff), (2) the active local vacuum, and (3) the active local spacetime curvatures.  In reality, all three components interact with each other, and no analysis of a system is complete without an analysis of the supersystem.  In other words, components (2) and (3) constitute the active environment and its exchange with the system.  As is now starting to be shown experimentally, the behavior of the system -- including deliberately throwing it into weird quantum reality and even engineering that condition -- can be controlled deliberately by engineering its active environmental exchange.  This "unified field theory" approach represented by the supersystem  --- which very nicely can use Sachs' unified field theory and higher group symmetry electrodynamics such as O(3) electrodynamics --- allows a dramatic and revolutionary extension of physics with a reach from inside the nucleon to the entire universe.  Things we never even dreamed of doing before, now become possible (note, e.g., that if you control the mixed states and can select which one you wish to emerge, teleportation --- to use a common word --- can be accomplished.  Literally the ion can "pop out" here and "pop in" there.  And at least the first steps in that direction have now been experimentally taken and published in Physical Review.).

 We can also quickly include (5) the use of time-energy, which is the key to a startling and totally new high energy particle physics, at low spatial energy and low frequency photons, since the time-component of the photon is actually spatial energy compressed by c-squared, and has the energy density of mass.  The highest energy physics available is NOT in using high frequency photons, but in using low frequency photons if some of the time energy is transduced (decompressed) into spatial energy.  Since spatial energy and time (time energy) components of the photon are canonical, lowering the frequency (and hence the spatial energy) of the photon by a factor of n, increases the time-component by a factor of n.  However, if we replace delta t in the photon by c(exp2)x(delta t), which is its spatial energy equivalent, then the spatial energy equivalent of the t component has been multiplied by c(exp2) x n.  So the highest energy physics can be done with the lowest spatial energy (lowest frequency) photons, IF some of the increased time-energy of the low-frequency photon is decompressed into spatial energy. 

 We will also include very briefly (6) the mechanism that generates the flow of a mass through time.  I uncovered that 30 years ago while in grad school back in 1971.  This mechanism itself is also engineerable, though this is not time-travel (which would require that the observer continue forward in time, while the entire rest of the universe is time-reversed back to a previous exact state).  We do not suggest that!  Instead, we point out that, just as spatial (decompressed) energy in the form of an EM wave can be time reversed, mass-energy (highly compressed energy) can be time-reversed also.  For that, an extension to nonlinear phase conjugate optics is required, wherein the mass-energy to be time-reversed is "pumped" in the time domain by time-polarized EM waves.   This is actually part of a revolutionary approach to medicine begun by Prioré in the 1960s, with important contributions by Becker,  which approach I have extended.  Extending Becker's work investigating the body's cellular regeneration system, by going to higher symmetry electrodynamics and time-domain pumping, reveals the actual mechanism used by the body to restore damaged cells back to a previous normal condition.  The Prioré method was a method for amplifying that natural process used by the biological organism.

 I also uncovered what is probably the mechanism for "decompressing time-energy into spatial energy", by solving the source charge problem, in 2000 (published paper).  Very powerful support for that solution is provided by both quantum field theory and broken symmetry in particle physics.  It turns out that every charge performs this function, but this has not previously been recognized, although Mandl and Shaw came very, very close but did not see the involvement of photon polarization transduction.

 As an extra bonus, we will also throw in (7) a proposed mechanism that creates the antigravity that is accelerating the expanding universe, and also (8) another mechanism that yields the "dark energy" responsible for most of the gravity (at least about 90% of it) that is holding the arms of the spiral galaxies together.

 So we could present the foregoing stated areas, or at least an overview conceptually, in a 25 to 30 minute presentation, but reserving questions to the end.

 One slide will point out that U(1) classical electrodynamics erroneously assumes a flat local spacetime and also assumes equilibrium of the system in its active vacuum exchange.  In short, by discarding the other two components of the supersystem,  it arbitrarily discards the "active environment" of the system, as far as any energy from that environment being utilized for performing useful external work.  However, higher symmetry electrodynamics models are available, such as SU(2)xSU(2) and O(3) and others.  These higher symmetry electrodynamics are quite capable of capturing and incorporating the two "active environmental" components of the supersystem that U(1) EM discards.  Certainly any truly advanced electromagnetic propulsion and sustained EM energy from the vacuum concepts must involve the supersystem, its interactions, and control of them.  This is the REAL key to a vast new physics, dramatically extending the present physics across the board.

 Cheers,

Tom Bearden
