| This note contains a sketch of the new gravitational potential, the new universal law of gravitation found from applying the simplest possible type of lagrangian dynamics to the observed precession of planetary orbits. This is of course an application of Ockham’s Razor. This has resulted in a completely new and totally unexpected cosmology that we are just beginning to explore. I do not think that anyone should take any notice of standard cosmology bubble blowing, (in truth no chemist or engineer or sensible physicist ever does), but astronomy is obviously important for new data. For x squared greater than unity is looks like the effective potential of the H atom, eq. (1), and it looks like the Lennard-Jones atom atom potential used in molecular dynamics computer simulation, of which I was one of the earliest pioneers at Oxford and Aberystwyth. At the point of no net potential and no net force the result is eq. (12). Strictly defined, the Lennard-Jones potential is a 6 – 12 potential coming from quantum mechanics. Gareth Evans and I attended undergraduate lectures on it by Mansel Davies, who was one of the earliest pioneers of the infra red at Cambridge. The problem with Newton is well known to scholars, and is described in the attached long essay. In the attached sketch, the problem becomes very clear, Newtonian potentials are just attractive, the repulsion has to be introduced artificially by the centrifugal “potential” energy. In fact this is not a potential energy at all, it is just the rotational kinetic energy term, coming not from potential energy but from kinetic energy. So a Newtonian orbit (the ellipse), is not stable. This is easily seen simply by differentiating the equation of an ellipse (x = 1), the resulting acceleration is negative and pure attraction, for example eq. (40) of note 215(5). In ECE theory the new gravitational potential originates in spacetime torsion within a generally covariant unified field theory.
