ETERONIC APPLICATIONS

GLOSSARY

Previous chapters describe a theory. Theories are science fiction before being useful to lead towards practical applications. The following description is actually a theory oriented only towards practical concepts, that is to say, possible practical devices based on the eteronic theory and on its proving experiments.

First of all it is necessary to give a glossary. Given the new and till now unknown physical phenomena we must coin new words or new expressions.

“Eteron” is the elemental particle that fills space compactly. Eterons have complex internal structure and the eteronic medium (the same space) conducts gravity and light.

“Eter” is the mentioned eteronic medium. It is not a homogeneous medium. It is a given and finite amount of eterons. The new word replaces the ancient concept of homogeneous “ether” or “aether”.

“Eter density” is the average compression state of a set of eterons. Each eteron has its own compression state. In such set, those states can be all equal or different.

“Eteron flux”, “eter flux” or “eter current” is a given set of eterons moving inside a still eteronic medium. As an example, a “river” of eter between its banks made up of still eter.

“Graviton” is a wave like a photon but without electric vector. It is a compression wave in the eteronic medium (in the eter) with quantum behavior.

“Photon” is not a new word, but it is not exactly the photon of 20^th century’s physics. It is a wave in the eteronic medium like a graviton but with electric vector perpendicular to its moving line. Maybe we should have changed its name, but we keep it in honor to Einstein.

“Neutral eter” is the eter without electric activity, that is to say, without dipole and in not ionized state.

“Eteronic dipole” is the dipole field of an eteron in “dipole state” having a dipole-field-generator inside.

“Polar thread” is a chain of eterons in dipole state linked by opposed dipole-ends.

“Polar sheaf” is a couple of adjacent dipole threads.

“Eter-ion” is an eteron charged with one electric polarity, by adding (or removing) electric charges.

“Subelectricity” is a current of eter-ions.

“Main space” is the 3-dimensional space (our space where we live) in which eterons exist. It is the hyper-spherical surface (a 3-dimensional space) of a 4-dimensional sphere.

“Parallel spaces” are both adjacent 3-dimensional spaces below and above the main space, both laying on the hyper-platform.

“Hyper-platform” is the 4-dimensional sphere’s external surface on which the main and parallel spaces are loaned.

“Cronons” are small units (particles or waves). Theirs source is the hyper-sphere whose surface is the hyper-platform. They move from the hyper-platform crossing in perpendicular sense to the main and parallel spaces.
