Nonlinearity and Energy Conservation: A Possible Way to Harness Energy from the Subquantum Medium

Abstract

In some situations nonlinearity seems to pervade in nature.Indeed, in adequate conditions, a minor action may give origin to a very large reaction, only apparently providing a gain in output power from a lesser inputted value.Extending de Broglie seminal ideas to a more general pilot-wave theory, we describe the relation between nonlinearity and energy conservation, dismissing any apparent contradiction between the two.We also present what seems to be a possible way to harness energy from the pervading subquantum medium.

A complex nonlinear approach for understanding quantum physics

J. R. Croca

To understand quantum phenomena, namely, the particle-wave duality, in a causal relational way, a complex nonlinear process, in which a minor action may, under adequate conditions, give rise to a huge reaction, was proposed by de Broglie. The nonlinear process is mediated by the guiding or pilot wave principle, or as is now named by the principle of eurhythmy. This process rejects the ontic status of the Cartesian linear method in which the whole is assumed to be the simple linear combination of the parts and the action is always presumed to be equal and opposite to the reaction. The constituent parts of the whole are supposed to be naturally expected to maintain their own identity in every conceivable interacting situation.

Experimental Evidence on the Real Physical Existence of the Subquantum Waves

J. R. Croca, Augusto Garuccio, Mário Gatta +3 more

The question related with the ontic nature of the quantum waves, whether they are mere probability waves or, on the contrary, do have a real physical existence is now settled by recent experiments based on ghost imaging technique. Indeed, these experiments have shown the real physical existence of subquantum waves, named also de Broglie waves, guiding waves, pilot waves, theta waves or subquantum waves. In order to better clarify the situation some minor modifications on the performed experiments are proposed.

Spacetime as an Emergent Phenomenon: A Possible Way to Explain Entanglement and the Tunnel Effect

P. G. Castro, Marisa Della Gatta, J. R. Croca +1 more

Entanglement and the tunnel effect phenomena have been repeatedly observed and are generically accepted under orthodox quantum mechanics formalism. However, they remain rather inexplicable in the context of spacetime usual conceptualization. In the present work, we suggest an alternative quantum mechanics formalism, refining the pilot-wave theory initially proposed by de Broglie. We suggest that spacetime is an emergent phenomenon from a prior subquantum medium and that entanglement and the tunnel effect can be explained in terms of a nonlinear relation between space and time that is imposed by subquantum waves.
