I, K. Marinas, am the founder of my Cyclic Multiverse Hypothesis¹, in which I propose that universe is a fractal, as an alternative to the Big Bang Theory. My idea is not science as of yet, since the vast majority of detailed cosmological data and computing power is outside of my reach. Another reason why it is not science right now is because it is not being studied by staff of a university. This page is not something you can nor should cite for a school project. Meanwhile, I think that my idea lacks the errors of previous alternatives to the Big Bang Theory.

What this hypothesis requires

This is an image of the Cyclical Multiverse Hypothesis as of March 2006.  It represents our universe inside a huge atom just like ours.  We might determine the element of this atom in the future with more precise instrumentation to measure specific Cosmic Background Radiation and with the new interpretation provided by the Cyclical Multiverse Hypothesis.

Cyclic Multiverse Hypothesis explains the redshifts of galaxies varying in distance by proposing two things:
[edit]

TeraQuasars

New kinds of collapsed masses called TeraQuasars. These are proposed celestial objects with the proposed mass of trillions of quasars located behind the furthest galaxies and stars we can see in the universe - see Hubble Deep Field.

  1. Gravitational redshift is the decrease of a photon's frequency with increasing gravitational potential. This kind of redshift is directly linked with the curvature of the gravitational field.
  2. Angular diameter distance of distant galaxies can be explained as being an effect caused by the massive gravitational lensing of TeraQuasars.
[edit]

Concordance with WMAP

To explain the Cosmic Background Radiation, the Cyclic Multiverse Hypothesis requires that TeraQuasars are surrounded by an environment which has a similar (if not exactly the same) composition as the one described in the Big Bang theory of the "early" universe. This analogous to quasars in the centers of galaxies which have a radiation intense environment surrounding them. This enviornment would be a shell surface that today's cosmologists call the surface of last scattering. However, in contrast to the idea of todays cosmologists - that the surface of the last scattering is a spherical shell concentric to the point of observation - in this Cyclic Multiverse Hypothesis, the surface of the last scattering occurs at ellipsoid-like surfaces of several TeraQuasars - at the same temperature (~3000K) and redshift (~1100).

Contrast from Black Holes

TeraQuasars cannot be thought of as black holes with the mass of trillions of galaxies. That is, because it is required by the Cyclical Multiverse Hypothesis that the TeraQuasars are surrounded by low entropy. This is the same kind of low entropy required by the early universe of the Big Bang Theory. A possible candidate is the Gravastar, which is described as having a very low entropy, in contrast to the high (even maximum) entropy of black holes. Also, with the Gravastar, matter has the ability to bounce back away, a theoretical feature which is necessary in this Cyclic Multiverse Hypothesis. Experiments will be needed to test theories involving Gravastar-like objects. The discovery of such an object would be consistent with this Cyclic Multiverse Hypothesis.
[edit]

Contrast from Cyclic Big Bang/Big Crunch

Instead of an inflating singularity that collapses upon itself and reinflates etc., the Cyclical Multiverse Hypothesis proposes that the TeraQuasars are the source of new matter (predominately hydrogen) and that old and new matter can enter and exit the multimillion-light-year thick atmosphere of TeraQuasars. A fractal a with pattern that repeats towards the infinitely large scales and towards the infinitely small scales is necessarily heterogeneous in space at all levels, whereas many cyclic universe models based on the Big Bang Theory suggest that the universe is homogeneous and isotropic at large scales.

More on the size of TeraQuasars

Since TeraQuasars would be very large and exist behind a significant fraction of the sky, even more than the Andromeda Galaxy which itself spans 8 moon diameters, they would appear basically uniform and isotropic when viewed through the microwave spectrum. The TeraQuasars could also be accompanied by smaller partners, or GigaQuasars, which would be like TeraQuasars, but many times smaller.
[edit]

Hyperbolic Space-Time

Hyperbolic space-time is an idea from General Relativity - see Hyperbolic geometry and General Relativity.

     

  1. Observations of galactic rotation velocities (see Galaxy rotation problem) and the brightness of distant supernovas (see Dark Energy) cause the author to suggest that the space outside our solarsystem, between the stars and between the galaxies is hyperbolic.
  2. Consequences of Hyperbolic Geometry:
    • Stars and galaxies would be dimmed by a factor different than the inverse-square law.
    • The low-density space between the stars and between the galaxies would act like a concave (zoom out) lens. The parallaxes of stars would be smaller than it would be without the Hyperbolic curvature of space-time, which means that stars and galaxies would be closer than what would be believed if the space between stars was Euclidean. The galaxy would be smaller in diameter than it appears, however, the star count would remain valid. The arms of the Milky Way galaxy would be "lubricated" since the stars would have tendency to repel one another, like protons in a nucleus. Stars would flow faster than they would otherwise. Despite this, the collective gravity of galaxies would keep stars inside a spiral disk, ellipsoid, or irregular shape. That means that the hyperbolic space between the stars is encapsulated by the greater gravity of the whole.
    • Having negative curvature between galaxies in clusters would make them appear farther apart than they really are. The required dark matter abundance would be reduced significantly.
    • The observable part of our universe would be smaller than it appears, yet remains stable due to local gravitational repulsion within the gravity of the whole.

The Pioneer Anomaly as a possible determinant

The Pioneer Anomaly is an anomalous acceleration of the Pioneer 10 & 11 probes towards the sun. The Pioneer Acceleration math is approximately math. The Hubble Constant math is approximately math which is equal to math. The Hubble Acceleration math is equal to the Hubble Constant math times the speed of light math which is equal to math. From the proximity of the Pioneer Acceleration math and the Hubble Acceleration math, we may induce that these accelerations have a common cause.

Some insight on this acceleration can be derived from an alternative to the Newtonian approximation of gravitational potential. In this article, gravitational potential refers to gravitational potential energy divided mass math.

1) Given that the integral of acceleration math with respect to radius math equals the gravitational potential, derive formula the gravitational potential math.

The beginning of this Fractal-based Unification of the Gravitational, Weak, Electromagnetic, and Strong forces

In the Cyclical Multiverse Hypothesis, the gravitational attraction of our fractal level becomes a binding force in the higher fractal level that:

  1. opposes a nucleus' tendency to split apart (The Strong Nuclear Force)
  2. becomes the attractive force between protons and electrons (The Attractive Electromagentic Force)

Similiarly, the gravitational repulsion defined by the mechanism above becomes a seperating force in the higher fractal level that:

  1. decays massive particles (such as neutrons) into smaller ones (The Weak Force)
  2. leads to CP-violation in antimatter (The Weak Force)
  3. keeps the nucleus from becoming a black hole (The Repulsive Electromagentic Force)
  4. prevents the electron from merging with a proton (depsite their opposite charge)
  5. puts a limit on the number of electrons an element can have

If the universe were eternal, the weak force would have enough time to accumulate the observed difference between the amount of matter and antimatter. The remaining antimatter would be maintained by natural particle accelerators found inside extreme environments such as the center of the Milky Way.

These become the two fundamental forces (i.e. the binding force and the seperating force) of the universe. Both must exist in order for the fractal universe to be eternal and moderate.

A Fractal Universe and Physical Units

The Cyclic Multiverse is a self-similiar fractal which might have formed just like a snowflake would. Anything from the curvature of spacetime to the pattern of a snowflake can ultimately explained with units of measurement.

The multiple between fractal levels math is equal to the ratio of the color force to the gravitational force.

Testing Claims of this Cyclic Multiverse Hypothesis

A section of this Cyclical Multiverse Hypothesis predicts an anomalous acceleration towards the sun math at distances up to, but not including math which is about 390 billion kilometers - beyond that, an acceleration of the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction is expected, that is to say, even without propulsion. In this theory, the formula for orbital velocity math would be adjusted to:

math

Escape velocity math would be adjusted to:

math

Where math the gravitational potential which is the same as gravitational potential energy divided by mass. This value is equal to the integral of math with respect to radius math.

This entails that the orbit of 90377 Sedna would be constricted at much greater distances from the sun than its current position. Hundreds of years into the future at the farther ends of its orbit, it would fail to match the orbital trajectory predicted by Newton's theory.

Beyond a distance of math, gravitational potential with repsect to mass math becomes positive, and the result would be a gravitational repulsion relative to mass math.

Footnotes

¹ This hypothesis was formerly called Cyclical or Cyclic Multiverse Theory. K. Marinas later renamed it because the specific meaning of the word "theory" has a literal interpretation in the sciences which is different than the literal interpretation of the layman.

² Originally, I tried defining the mass in proportion to the distance (i.e. 1E-41 when distance was 1E-41), while using the Schwarzschild radius math as a guideline for how I should start investigating, but then after considering the mass of the universe in relation to a proton, I realized that it would not work that way. I dismissed that a couple times, since that would require redefining the Gravitational Constant for the lower fractal level which is described in units of math.
