Taking all of this together, there seems to exist a prima facie case for this premise:
1) Dark matter is inherent in the quantum vacuum, meaning it is an illusion in 3-space except for gravitational effects 2) The quantum vacuum = Dirac sea = dark matter 3) CMB is not a relic of a Big Bang but is residual radiation from the Dirac sea Now comes the interesting part. Can this information, if valid, be put to use in alternative energy? One seemingly obvious way to proceed is to consider CMB as a “leak” of some kind. If it is a leak, then we want to increase the flow rate. There are many ways to increase the flow rate of various streams, some of which are applicable to microwave photons … so let the games begin… From: ChemE Stewart http://m.phys.org/news/2011-08-dark-illusion-quantum-vacuum.html From: David Roberson A thought just came to me while considering alternate explanations for the CMB. Dark matter is assumed to be distributed throughout the universe and is supposed to clump together around galaxy centers and other large massive objects. I have long wondered how this congregation of material could occur in matter that has no way to release the gravitational energy by radiation as with normal matter. Perhaps the CMB is generated gradually by the condensation of the dark matter. Or … perhaps dark matter is another aspect of the Dirac Sea ? http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/0705/0705.2908.pdf
