THE MEASUREMENT PROBLEM. “Another big question is how or if this second universe could be detected. A possible candidate would be gravitational effects. Since gravity is a property of the structure of spacetime, perhaps gravitational forces would apply between masses in the present, +t and the antipresent, -t.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

ASSUMPTIONS. “Let us further assume that the moment of the present or antipresent moves outward from the origin, forward or backward in time respectively, and only interactions occurring in the present or antipresent are possible (these assumptions will be defended below).” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

CONSEQUENCES. “The strong and weak interactions propagate via various exchange particles whose antiparticles behave oppositely when time-reversed. The electromagnetic interaction's photon is its own antiparticle so it should also propagate similarly under time reversal, that is outward in time from the Big Bang.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

CAVEAT. “None of these three interactions are hypothesized to work between the present and antipresent. The reason, speculatively, is that at any moment the exchange particles from the different universes will always be separate from each other because they move further away in opposite directions in time.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

ANTI TIME. “They will never coexist in the three necessary points in space, antitime and time. Unless only the present and antipresent are available for interactions, this explanation is unavailable. If gravity does not require similarly behaving exchange particles, this situation will not prevent gravitational interactions between the two universes.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

ISLANDS OF ANTIMATTER. “According to the STH there should be galaxies, stars, etc. of antimatter distributed in space in a similar way to matter, but twice the age of either universe in each universe's past.” (STH = Symmetrical Time Hypothesis). https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

WIDELY SEPARATED. “The odds that such past antimatter concentrations would occupy exactly the same space as ourselves are very long. Such odds could be calculated simply, since, by assumption, at a time +t only antimatter nearby at time -t would be relevant.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

SCALE EFFECTS. “The ratio of the volume of concentrations of mass to the volume of vacuum is so low that almost all of the time any such gravitational effects would only be apparent on a galactic scale.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn
