Aharonov-Bohm effect interpretation
The Aharonov-Bohm effect can be explained by the circular flow of the Planck ether and gravitational vector potential, indicating the presence of negative energy.
Scalar Physics Manipulation
The theory that the magnetic scalar potential (removed from Maxwell's equations by Heaviside) is the key to manipulating spacetime. The Aharonov-Bohm effect proves this potential is physically real. Scalar physics allows creation of stable plasma singularities, vacuum polarization, and the unification of gravity and electromagnetism through Kaluza-Klein type theories.
