This web site explains that there is nothing else but the aether, and that matter is made solely of waves. Yes, I realize that this may sound ridiculous. However I know a lot about optics, waves and physics, and I maintain that this is true.

One may ask any well known scientist how a photon works. He will not be able to provide an acceptable explanation. Even worse, he will also answer that light is made of electric and magnetic fields, but he still will be unable to explain how such fields work. This means that he simply ignores the true nature of light.

We are standing in front of the Unknown. The goal is to find the truth. So our first step should be to propose hypotheses and examine them.

Actually, I can explain light and I am the only one who can. Nobody else ever proposed an acceptable hypothesis.

I will propose many assumptions throughout these pages. If you are a scientist, and you are unable to propose some of your own, please do not reject my ideas simply because they sound ridiculous. You should examine them first. And if you disagree with them, you need an acceptable reason.

One can produce ripples on water by throwing a pebble into the calm waters of a lake. In this case, the waves are outgoing because they go away from the center.

One can also produce ingoing waves by using a large hoop. These waves will culminate at the center then go back, becoming outgoing waves and meeting the ingoing waves.

The Doppler effect.

If the hoop is slowly moved forward while producing such standing waves, they become compressed forward and dilated backward. This is the Doppler effect, which acts in the same way on ingoing and outgoing waves.

The above images are displayed using an artificial 3-D effect in order to produce a more intuitive view. However, unlike waves on a flat surface, this wave rather extends into a three-dimensional space. It is made out of spherical waves. It is represented in its own moving frame of reference, where it does not seem to move. But in fact, it is a highly mobile wave system and it may change its speed and direction.

This wave shows all of an electron's properties.

It is unlikely that this wave is known, else it would have been systematically mentioned as an example to illustrate the Lorentz transformations. Indeed, it conforms to them in a spectacular way and even allows the theory of Relativity to be explained. For instance it shows vertical parallel zones traveling toward the right. This is the "phase wave", which was apparently discovered by de Broglie. Each zone indicates places where the Lorentz  t'  time is the same, as a result of the time shift.

Let's repeat : this wave shows all of an electron's properties. Judge for yourself :

This wave contains energy. When immobile, this energy is constant, which explains quanta. Otherwise, its energy increases with its speed according to Lorentz's prediction. This wave can move. Its speed and direction do not normally change, which explains Newton's inertia. But they can change because of the radiation pressure which leads to mechanical properties exerted from a distance. This wave also has a spin resulting from a phase rotation, not a mechanical rotation.

This wave spectacularly conforms to the Lorentz transformations. It seems at rest as seen by an observer moving along with it. It even seems to act and react in every Galilean frame of reference as if it were at rest. From its perspective, another wave's Doppler effect only manifests according to its relative speed, which explains Relativity.

Thus, the presence of a "solid" particle is no longer needed to explain matter. It is even excluded. An electron isn't a metal marble covered in chrome. An electron cannot be made of matter. This site shows that it is rather matter that is made of electrons.

NO  AMAZING  INVENTIONS

You will not find in those web pages any indication that a better knowledge of the wave nature of matter may lead to some amazing inventions. Clearly, all of matter's properties have been already discovered. The final touch was just to explain why matter behaves like this.

Unfortunately, I could not find any practical idea based on my discovery.

No, there is no new sort of energy which could be cleaner or cheaper then petroleum.

And no, I did not find the secret of levitation.

In addition, if you one are impassioned of esotericism and the paranormal, you are politely invited to go elsewhere. Here, one speaks quite simply about physics and mechanics.

More pages.

This site contains 33 pages explaining matter and all physical phenomena. 

Using solely electrons. Nothing else.
