You ran errands earlier today. Left over
Papa John’s pizza for lunch and you took time to watch last night’s “This Old
House Hour” and last Sunday’s “Revenge”. You are suddenly thinking about
‘quantum mechanics and field theory’ and don’t know why. – Amorella
1501 hours. My former student Zack M.
recently suggested that I watch a Sean Carroll lecture on field theory. 1640
hours. I have watched a Sean Carroll lecture on the Higgs.

Field
(physics)
From
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A field is a
physical quantity that has a value for each point in space and time. For
example, in a weather forecast, the wind velocity is described by assigning a
vector to each point in space. Each vector represents the speed and direction
of the movement of air at that point.
A field can be
classified as a scalar field, a vector field, a spinor field or a tensor field according
to whether the value of the field at each point is a scalar, a victor, a pinor
or a tensor, respectively. For example, the Newtonian gravitational field is a
vector field: specifying its value at a point in spacetime requires three
numbers, the components of the gravitational field vector at that point.
Moreover, within each category (scalar, vector, tensor), a field can be either
a classical field or a quantum field, depending on whether it is
characterized by numbers or quantum operators respectively.
A field may be
thought of as extending throughout the whole of space. In practice, the strength
of every known field has been found to diminish with distance to the point of
being undetectable. For instance, in Newton’s theory of gravity, the
gravitational field strength is inversely proportional to the square of the
distance from the gravitating object. Therefore the Earth's gravitational field
quickly becomes undetectable on cosmic scales.
Defining the field as
"numbers in space" shouldn't detract from the idea that it has
physical reality. "It occupies space. It contains energy. Its presence
eliminates a true vacuum." The field creates a "condition in
space" such that when we put a particle in it, the particle
"feels" a force.
If an electrical
charge is accelerated, the effects on another charge do not appear
instantaneously. The first charge feels a reaction force, picking up momentum,
but the second charge feels nothing until the influence, traveling at the speed
of light, reaches it and gives it the momentum. Where is the momentum before
the second charge moves? By the law of conservation of momentum it must be
somewhere. Physicists have found it of "great utility for the analysis of
forces" to think of it as being in the field.
This utility leads
to physicists believing that electromagnetic fields actually exist, making the
field concept a supporting paradigm of the entire edifice of modern physics.
That said, John Wheeler and Richard Feynman seriously considered Newton's
pre-field concept of action at a distance (although they set it aside because
of the ongoing utility of the field concept for research in general relativity
and quantum electrodynamics).
"The fact that the
electromagnetic field can possess momentum and energy makes it very real... a
particle makes a field, and a field acts on another particle, and the field has
such familiar properties as energy content and momentum, just as particles can
have".

The
point as you gather is that the heart and soul and mind are not real because
they are not measurable in reality. However, in fiction they can still be real
in the sense that some people point to the heart and soul and mind as real
because they react as if such heart or soul or mind is real in their lives.
They are not reacting to nothing. It is real whether it is science or not. This
is your point. – Amorella
1650 hours. Thank you, Amorella. This
may be an opinion and not a statement to some or to all, but to me it is a
statement as far as the Merlyn books and the blog are concerned. One cannot
prove there is consciousness after physical death, but in the Merlyn books and
blog this is a given. These works are not science they are fiction. – rho
Time for a break, boy. We time for the news
and soup for supper. Later. – Amorella
1727 hours. I want to continue with
the story. I don’t know how we can take in science that might account for the
story as one of understanding.
You
just had a bowl of Alta’s turkey soup for supper a few minutes ago after
watching “Surviving Jack”, “Modern Family”, and “Elementary” as well as NBC
News. – Amorella
2142 hours. I find myself working a
tension ball I bought to help my surgery heal. And, interesting, while I am working
the ball I am not snacking. We’ll see how long this lasts. I also did my 40
minutes of exercises and am now taking, as of today, two huge cinnamon pills a
day to help regulate glucose. I’ll see how this goes.
Back to Thunder. TFS has a singular goal, to
return to Before because it was trickled away and it appears it cannot return.
Beings with higher consciousness sometimes find they have a yearning to be made
whole for the same reason. If they cannot be made whole, friends and
partnerships help; they desire to reunite with their home planet(s), and/or to
become a part of the One, a consciousness with nature. We are talking the
really, really real old days here, so to speak. These feelings are as aromas
with TFS and sniffed out by consciousness for comfort. This is so deeply felt
emotionally and intellectually that with physical death the heart and soul and
mind continue in spirit but not alone. The Dead wait also in hope that all will
heal and be as Before. - Amorella
The
Singularity, the Aspect of G---D
as it were, is conscious of not being whole as a part is allowed to fall away
into common space-and-time. The story says this is accepted as Growth where
there was none Before. The Logos or Aspect of G---D grows and in doing so the
Logos or Aspect learns, is made aware what was not previously Being. Logos or
Aspect learns through the higher
consciousness of evolving living beings. Growing and Learning are Good and are
spiritual evolving in higher conscious beings. It is willed in the TFS and into
all beings of consciousness, some are willed to grow and learn through their
genetic structure because it has a spiritual base. This is true of all living
things that survive in space-and-time. – Amorella
2218
hours. I do not know if I ‘translated’ this properly but the theme is
controlled within the context of what I have already gathered from Amorella.
This continues to be in the context of an ‘understanding’ not knowledge. It is
based on observations of how the world is seen through the eyes of the sciences
and even the philosophies. In the Merlyn books we are talking of multiple
worlds as well as multiple universes. I see nothing here that appears to contradict
Merlyn and his dreams. There is a logic to the story so far and I am not sure
what is next because not only can I not anticipate the words and their order I
cannot anticipate sequence of thought, and I wonder how it is that we on this
planet have come to the modern conclusions we have on this planet as to how
things are and how they came to be. As far as I can see within what is written
we are talking here about the TFS and its affects on the first universe. It is
like the molding of the first Greek letter, Alpha and there are no other
letters yet in sight. That’s how I feel about this at the moment. Again, I will
have to consider the words. I find myself molding thoughts for the blog and
Merlyn books within this new-to-me mythology.
