SILICON VALLEY, Calif., April 14 (AScribe Newswire) — Jerome Drexler, the Bell Labs trained scientist who discovered relativistic-baryon dark matter, claims that the use of his dark matter cosmology, described in his new book, “Our Universe via Drexler Dark Matter,” helps simplify the universe as Nicolaus Copernicus’ book simplified the solar system in 1543.
Drexler’s latest example can be found in the April issue of Discover Magazine about the amazing super-energetic cosmic-ray protons that strike Earth’s atmosphere at energies at least 10 million times higher than the ultimate particle energy goal of the Large Hadron Collider being completed at CERN in Switzerland. The article entitled, “Impossible Particles” reports that 50 of these super-energetic protons have been detected. They provided no clue as to the source of their super-high energy, thereby creating one of the top cosmologic mysteries.
Drexler’s four books plus two scientific papers provide overwhelming astronomical evidence that relativistic baryons (about 90 percent protons) comprise the vast majority of the dark matter mass of the universe. Chapter “C” of the new book provides support that the big bang brought relativistic-baryon dark matter into our region of the universe from some other region. That would imply that the relativistic-proton dark matter has been traveling for 13.7 billion years, which raises an issue discussed in the next paragraph.
Chapter “G” explains that the energies of relativistic protons, above the well-known GZK cosmic-ray energy cutoff level, traveling through space are diminished through inelastic collisions with the cosmic microwave background photons. This effect decreases the energy of cosmic-ray protons down to the GZK cosmic-ray energy cutoff level as they travel through space.
However, those protons that orbit groups of galaxies in galaxy clusters will retain a much larger percentage of their original energy as super-energetic cosmic-ray protons. That is because most super-energetic relativistic protons moving through the higher magnetic fields of galaxy clusters will not satisfy the Lorentz invariance requirement of the Special Theory of Relativity and therefore should exhibit few inelastic collisions with cosmic microwave background photons. This could be described as evading the GZK cosmic-ray cutoff.
Thus, these super-energetic protons would be found in galaxy clusters where they are orbiting a group of three or more galaxies thereby forming dark matter halos. They would remain relatively stable in these orbits until such time that their galaxy cluster enters into a merger with another galaxy cluster, causing the super-energetic protons to experience a substantial magnetic-field change or distortion. This could cause some super-energetic dark matter protons to be deflected off into space as super-energetic cosmic-ray protons, some of which could head toward Earth. The “Impossible Particles” article reports that 50 such super-energetic cosmic-ray protons have been detected in recent years by the Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina.
Chapter “G” cites other researchers in 2005 reporting ultra-high-energy cosmic-ray protons emanating from merging galaxy clusters, which influenced Drexler’s development of this model. Another paper that influenced Drexler’s model was authored by Sidney Coleman and Nobel Laureate Sheldon L. Glashow in 1998 entitled “Evading the GZK Cosmic-Ray Cutoff” that reports: “Tiny departures from Lorentz invariance, too small to have been detected otherwise, have effects that increase rapidly with [nucleon] energy and can kinematically prevent cosmic ray nucleons from undergoing inelastic collisions with CBR photons.”
Thus we see that what are called “Impossible Particles” in April’s Discover Magazine under mainstream cosmology may have a logical and plausible explanation under Drexler’s dark matter cosmology.
Drexler’s new book is different from all other modern cosmology books in several ways. It introduces a cosmologic universe, which is orderly, logical, and systematic. It teaches and explains by illustrating how a variety of cosmic mysteries have been solved. It raises the status of dark matter in the universe by illuminating its roles as the principal source of energy, the principal source of matter in the form of hydrogen and helium, and the principal source of cosmic relationships with the principal cosmic phenomena and cosmic constituents of the universe.
Drexler has documented his seven years of dark matter/dark energy research, its timeline, its interaction with mainstream cosmology, and the overwhelming evidence that relativistic-proton or relativistic-baryon dark matter represents the principal constituent of the dark matter of the universe in the following seven publications.
