10 April 2006:
Extended Heim Theory, Physics of
Spacetime, and Field Propulsion
In this non-mathematical overview we present a very brief
introduction to some of the basic physical assumptions of
Extended Heim Theory (EHT) as developed by Heim and
Dröscher. We also explain the differences
to the original
6-dimensional theory of Heim. These differences may be
substantial, and we will show that a completely
different picture of physical interactions is the result.
EHT predicts six fundamental physical interactions. Heim had
adopted Dröscher's idea of a 12-dimensional internal
symmetry space from which the polymetric tensor, describing
physical interactions, has to be constructed. Together with
Dröscher, he published the book Strukturen der physikalischen Welt und
ihrer nichtmateriellen Seite, Resch Verlag, 1996,
Innsbruck, in which the physical consequences of this
12-dimensional internal space are discussed. Unfortunately,
because of his failing health, Heim could not any more accomplish
the task of rewriting his first two volumes on Elementarstrukturen der Materie,
Resch Verlag, Innsbruck. The notes below are an excerpt from a
forthcoming paper and are only a beginning (pdf
207kB).

March 2006: Prof. G.W. Bruhn, Dept. of
Mathematics, Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany, http://www.mathematik.tu-darmstadt.de/~bruhn/IGW.html
criticized that Eq. (2) in our paper AIAA 2004-3700,
a4,
letter, will lead to a flat metric.
We have rejected his comments as being irrelevant to the physics
of Heim theory, see pdf .
In the following we present the physical basis of Heim
theory in a nutshell:
- The overall objective of Heim theory, as developed in our
papers, is to answer the central problem of physics, namely the
number, nature, and origin of the fundamental interactions that
do exist in Nature.
- To this end, we start from GR (General Relativity) and not
from quantum mechanics, following an idea of Einstein as
published by him in one of his last papers in 1950, Scientific
American, April, Vol 180, NO 4. Heim expressed this conviction in
form of a geometrization principle that should lead to the
geometrization of all physical interactions. In order to
achieving this goal, the proper poly-metric tensor needs to be
constructed.
- Therefore, spacetime is assumed to be a differentiable
4-dimensional manifold, M4, as long as quantum effects
are not considered. This manifold comprises a collection of
points where each point is specified by a set of four real
numbers and has the same local topology as R4, i.e.,
it is locally but not globally (as wrongly assumed by Prof.
Bruhn) like R4. This is why we refer to
spacetime sometimes as R4, but the physical
meaning is always clear from the context. This is explicitly
shown in Figs. 1 and 2 on pages 3 and 4 of our paper
AIAA 2005-4521,
a4,
letter.

Our research work on advanced propulsion systems
based on field propulsion (Heim theory) was described in a
popular article by
New Scientist, 7-13 January 2006.
However, not everything described there should be taken
literally. The theoretical work is highly speculative, and it is
not sure that there are three gravitational interactions in
Nature as predicted by us. On the other hand, the benefits would
be enormous if six fundamental physical interactions existed in
Nature.
