The gravitational frequency shift: Atomic clocks slow down in strong gravitational fields

The Forces of Nature by Kelland Terry, Ph.D.

A cesium-beam atomic clock measures the exact oscillation frequency of the cesium atom, which is 9,192,631,770 cycles/second. This amounts to an accuracy of 1 second in 1,400,000 years, which makes a cesium-beam atomic clock the most sensitive device ever made for measuring time.

The oscillation frequency of an atom is determined by its string cycles. Electron string cycles and quark string cycles become synchronized because their e-electons and p-electons bond as they go through their individual cycles. This forces them into synchrony.

It has been shown that a cesium clock slows down when placed in a stronger gravitational field. This is referred to as the gravitational frequency shift. Clocks here on Earth run slower at lower altitudes where the gravitational force is greater. Even a clock placed at the bottom of a skyscraper runs slower than a clock at the top of the skyscraper. Physicists have shown that clocks in the Northern Hemisphere during the winter, when closer to the Sun, run slower than clocks at the same location during the summer. Atomic clocks aboard satellites must be corrected for the gravitational frequency shift; otherwise, the lower density of gravitons in outer space would cause the clocks to run faster. The correction is only one part in 10^14.

According to VES ether theory, a greater concentration of gravitons will slow down string retraction and increase the length of string cycles. The net result is an atom whose electron string cycles and quark string cycles are in synchrony but at a lower frequency. The clock will have a slower oscillation frequency and tick fewer times per second. This completely explains the effect of the gravitational force on cesium-beam clocks. It provides strong evidence that gravitons influence string cycle rates.

It can be shown mathematically that the gravitational frequency shift is directly correlated with the concentration of gravitons in the area. I will continue with this discussion in my next blog. Kelland—www.vestheory.com
