A New Mechanism for Matter Increase within the Earth Continued from page 48 Infinite Universe. He's currently working on a thesis titled ‘An investigation of a scientific paradigm shift: the rhetoric of an Theoretical constructs that have never been uphill battle". John Eichler's interest in Expansion Tectonics experimentally observed are not required. The Earth, began in 1958 when he arrived at the conclusion that the Earth having a magnetic field strong enough to interact with had undergone a significant expansion over time. His search for . or . a a viable mechanism to explain the matter gain utilising empirical impinging particles, gathers more than sufficient evidence has led to the writing of this article. fundamental particles, namely electrons and protons, to John Eichler can be contacted by email at account for a slow increase in matter internally over —_jeichler@AnlInfiniteUniverse.org. hundredc af millinns af vears There ic therefore no Theoretical constructs that have never been experimentally observed are not required. The Earth, aving a magnetic field strong enough to interact with impinging particles, gathers more than sufficient undamental particles, namely electrons and protons, to account for a slow increase in matter internally over undreds of millions of years. There is, therefore, no ack of component particles to create new matter deep within the body of the Earth. The exact process by which his occurs is complex in nature and, like the interior of he Earth itself, involves speculation as to its dynamics. t is argued that the avenue of approach proposed here is plausible and warrants further serious scientific investigation. If new matter has been added to the interior of the Earth, there must be an answer to the riddle of the dynamics of the process. At the level of human perception it may seem that the Earth is an impenetrable solid, and this perception gives rise to the notion that it is impossible for new matter somehow, as if by magic, to make its way to the Earth's deep interior. But, as argued here, there are mechanisms which have an empirical basis whereby this may occur on a subatomic level. It is extremely doubtful that humans will ever penetrate much below the Earth's crust (the deepest hole depth obtained to date is approximately 0.1 per cent of the Earth's radius), so it is a near certainty that the best we will ever achieve are very-small-scale, time-limited experimental laboratory simulations based upon what we can only speculate is going on within the deep interior of the Earth. Perhaps the time has come to stop ignoring the growing geological and other evidence against Plate Tectonics and in favour of Expansion Tectonics and begin to consider that we may, in fact, have an element- synthesising factory right beneath the ground on which we walk. 00 email at References ¢ Alfvén, H., "Model of the Plasma Universe", IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science 1986; 14:629-638 * Beaudette, C.G., Excess Heat: Why Cold Fusion Research Prevailed, Oak Grove Press, LLC, 2002, 2nd ed. ¢ Bering, E.A., A.A.

Eichler graduated from the Illinois Institute of Technology with majors in physics and mathematics. Under a contract from the US Atomic Energy Commission, he worked on computer analysis of blast shields for nuclear reactors and other government research activities at the IIT Research Institute. Later, his efforts were in the design and implementation of new computer systems. After retiring, he went back to graduate school at the University of Arkansas in Little Rock, where he's been working on the manuscript for his forthcoming book An 82 * NEXUS APRIL - MAY 2011 Continued from page 48 www.nexusmagazine.com
