Barriers, shmarriers

Continuing the development of my light-as-a-fourth-dimension hypothesis, I know embark upon potential barriers and tunnelling.

For this, matter needs to be thought of as a potential wall more or less proportional to its viscocity. We can run through air like a hot knife through butter because air just moves out of the way. Our mass, viscocity, potential barrier, or whatever you want to call it, is much greater than that of air, so we move through it easily.

But now think about running through water. Or worse yet, honey or molasses. Much more difficult. They are more dense and have a higher viscosity (a greater potential).

Finally, try running into a brick wall or a barn door. Actually, don't. It hurts. Think of them as huge potential spikes. The cumulative energy of your body is not sufficienty high enough to pass over the potential spike, so you bounce off of it and are turned away.

Small, energetic particles, the subjects of quantum mechanics, are known to tunnel through matter. Classically, their energy is lower than the potential barrier and should be turned away. Quantumly*, however, on occasion, they pass through the barrier and wind up on the other side.

My claim is the following: Each object is seen as a potential barrier with a certain height and thickness. On either side of the barrier, the potential feel drops steeply to that of "empty" space. Depending on the size and thickness of the barrier, these small particles can sense the lower potential on the other side of the barrier. Its energy field feels out the a way around the barrier through the 4th dimension that light travels through. In effect, the particle is able spend its energy to create a small wormhole-like link to equipotential field on the other side of the barrier, then passes through it.

I support this claim by first re-iterating my previous claim (see 4D Glasses) that electrons orbit atoms on equipotential field lines of this 4th dimension (which will here-to-forth be called Mison Space), then by noting that a change between electron orbits results in the emission or absorption of a photon (which, as I argued earlier, lives in Mison Space).

The loss of energy that occurs when a paticles tunnels through a potential barrier, I argue, is not simply expended in the particle's efforts to penetrate the barrier. Rather, the energy is released and travels through Mison Space, creating a portal for the particle to travel through. The portal exists on short temporal and spacial scales and is a link that traverses a space perpendicular to the 3D space that we live in. Essentially, the particle goes around the barrier, which is a perfectly reasonable thing for it to do.

Future Mison Space topics to be oublished:

• Why are electron orbits so crazy and how can they go through the nucleus iteslf (partially answered previously)?
• EM waves, as the name implies, are made up of both electric and magnetic fields, which travel perpendicular to one another, so how can Mison Space be just one extra dimension?
