Hi, I think the semantics are getting a little mixed up here. I am not

I am simply stating the *fact* that r is spacelike in the Einstein

radial parameter. The radial direction is spacelike by definition and
the temporal direction is timelike by definition.

If the radial direction is spacelike by definition, then that
means that r is *not* a radial coordinate in the interior region.
It's a temporal coordinate in that region. If the time direction
is timelike by definition, then that means that t is *not* a
temporal coordinate in the interior region. It's a spatial
coordinate there.

It is not true that the "radial direction is timelike in the interior
Schwarzschild solution". By definition, if a coordinate is timelike,
then it is *temporal*, not *radial*. The fact that the same variable
*name* r is used for a radial coordinate in the region outside the
event horizon, and is used for a temporal coordinate in the region
inside the event horizon has no significance.

If you prefer to restrict the name "r" to radial coordinates, and
restrict the name "t" to temporal coordinates, then you can certainly
do the following:

In the region outside the event horizon, use the metric

ds^2 = -((r-R)/r)dt^2 + (r/(r-R)) dr^2 + r^2 dOmega^2

This region is described by the coordinates (t,r,theta,phi)
where t is a time coordinate that runs from -infinity to +infinity,
r is a radial coordinate that runs from R to +infinity, and theta
and phi are angular coordinates.

In the region inside the event horizion, use the metric

ds^2 = -((R-t)/t) dt^2 + (t/(R-t)) dz^2 + (R-t)^2 dOmega^2

This region is described by the coordinates (t,z,theta,phi)
where t is a time coordinate that runs from -infinity to R,
z is a spatial coordinate that runs from -infinity to +infinity,
and theta and phi are angular coordinates. With these coordinates,
there is a catastrophe awaiting every observer in the region at
the time t=R (the singularity).

So with these new coordinates, t always refers to the temporal
coordinate, and r always refers to a radial coordinate.

What I think you are worried about is the relationship between
the coordinates in the exterior region and coordinate in the
interior region. There really *is* no relationship. They are
two separate regions of spacetime, and we use different coordinates
in the different regions.

I think people are spoiled by cartesian coordinates in Euclidean
space. Those coordinates are global; they can be used to describe
any point anywhere in the manifold. But that's not the common
case. Usually, when the manifold is curved, coordinates are only
valid in a small region, and if you travel outside of that region
you have to switch to a different coordinate system. Someone
falling towards a black hole has to switch coordinate systems
as he passes from one region to another (when he crosses the
event horizon) but that has no more significance than having
to reset your watch on Earth when you cross into a different
time zone.

Where does the symbol "r" obtain this magical power???

You _really_ need to learn the basics. Symbols have no power whatsoever,

Some might disagree with you quite strongly. Can I recommend you take a
look at "The Temple of Man" by R A Schwaller de Lubicz to get some feel
for how thoroughly symbolism can permeate an entire civilisation?

they mean merely what we designate them to mean, and in the case of GR,

Well, I wish you luck in your research. You might need it.

Your definition of words and symbols has no power over the mathematics.

So, you dare question the power of my words and symbols? :-)

Actually, I meant it as I said it - in the Einstein field equation, r
is spacelike and t is timelike. It is not possible therefore for r to
be timelike in the solution to the Einstein field equation, which means
that only the exterior solution is correct, and that the interior
solution is wrong.

Back up here. The Einstein field equations don't say anything about
"r" and "t". They don't say anything about which basis vectors are
spacelike and which are timelike. What they say is that

G_uv = k T_uv

where G_uv is a tensor formed from second derivatives of
the metric tensor g_uv, and T_uv is the stress-energy tensor,
and k is a constant related to Newton's constant G (there
might be a factor of pi or something).

How do you get r is spacelike and t is timelike from that?

Hi, I think the semantics are getting a little mixed up here.

Yes.. they are problematic even in texts that should be
'authoritative'.

The definition doesn't count. We need to go back to the field
equations and confirm that the temporal components are
transformed out before the interval is defined as spatial.
Likewise confirming that the spatial component is transformed
out before 'defining' the interval as temporal. The function
chi(x.t) comes to mind but I'd check here to be sure.

That is my gut feeling too. janPB came up with the idea, perhaps
in this thread, to ignore the words and look at the ingredients.
It makes perfect sense to me.

Now if the ingredients are Portland cement, the label says
Self Rising Flour and the customer is "All Smiles Bakery"
....then Houston has a problem. Surprised)

Not so - the norm of the 4-acceleration on a test particle is a local,
invariant, intrinsic quantity that diverges on the event horizon.

What is infinite is the acceleration necessary to hover in place
right at the event horizon. What that means is that it is *impossible*
to hover at the event horizon. If you are at the event horizon, then
you're going to fall in.

But that doesn't mean that there is anything singular happening
at the event horizon. Here's an analogy: Suppose I have a spaceship
that is undergoing constant acceleration (as measured by someone
aboard the spaceship). If the proper acceleration is A, then any
object (even a light signal) that starts out a distance of 1/A or
more behind the spaceship will *never* catch up.

To someone in the spaceship, it appears that there is a horizon
a distance of 1/A below him such that anything that crosses that
horizon can never come out again. In his coordinate system, it
requires an *infinite* amount of acceleration for someone to
hover right at that horizon.

However, someone at that horizon doesn't feel anything weird
going on. The same is true of the event horizon in Schwarzschild
coordinates. The horizon seems significant to someone above
the horizon, but has no physical significance right at the horizon.

This is why no peer reviewed journal would publish your stuff? This is

Well, YOU certainly don't seem to like Pakis.

A major reason for my 'stuff' not being published could be that I tend
to question knowledge that has become 'established' when the

No, no, no, no, please let go of those dreams at once. A far simpler

Remember that 101 years ago a certain no-name government bureaucrat in
Switzerland was able to publish what you would call an
anti-establishment paper. So much for not being able to publish because
of discussing unpopular ideas.

Hi Daryl,

Thanks for taking the time to write that detailed explanation. I
understand your (and others') point that different coordinates can be
used on different coordinate patches, so that r and t on one patch need
not be related to r and t on the other patch. However, in this case,
both of these coordinates r and t are the same r and t that appear in
the Einstein field equations - and this surely induces a relationship
between the two coordinate systems (i.e. they must have the same
'meaning' as someone put it, as the meaning they have in the field
equation).

Another issue of concern is that the two solutions (i.e. the interior
and exterior) are not generally considered to be independent of each
other, but rather that a radially infalling particle supposedly moves
smoothly from the exterior solution to the interior solution. This is
the reason for the development of the various coordinate systems which
seem to patch the interior and exterior together. The problem is that
while everything looks fine in the new coordinates, these new
coordinates are not the 'physical' ones (i.e. radius and time) and they
unfortunately serve to mask the fact that what is physically happening
is that the radial direction *is* becoming timelike and the temporal
direction *is* becoming radial upon crossing the horizon. This is
_physically_ impossible, even though the mathematical mapping in the
transformed coordinates is smooth.

The whole matter is really quite non-trivial which is no doubt why
there has been so much confusion about it in the past. Unfortunately I
think the interpretation which survived, i.e. the particle crosses the
event horizon into the interior region, is wrong, for the reasons I
have already mentioned (most importantly because there is no interior
region). If there is no interior region, the only place the particle
can really go after it hits the event horizon is onto the other
external Kruskal sheet (and note that this has to happen smoothly as
there are no curvature singularities etc). But according to an
independent observer the orientation of time is reversed on the second
sheet relative to the first, so an external observer will actually see
what appears to be a particle-antiparticle annihilation event occurring
at t=Infty at the event horizon.

One of the reasons that I am so confident that my interpretation is
correct (besides the mathematical proofs already given by Abrams,
Antoci and Crothers) is that it has allowed me to derive classical
electrodynamics and resolve the dark matter/MOND problem essentially
from first principles in the context of classical GR. The appearance of
electrodynamics and MOND I think is pretty miraculous, and an
indication that we are on the right path. I derived the existence of a
fluid consisting of neutral spinors last year when I was not at all
concerned with MOND or dark matter, and was pretty amazed when Luc
Blanchet's paper came out in May stating that this scenario is
precisely what is required to potentially resolve the MOND/dark matter
problem.

Best wishes,

Sabbir.

Hmm, I think you are possibly confusing me with the entire population
of America. I do not claim that there is some kind of conspiracy going
on. It is just a sad state of affairs and this is just how the current
system works. As someone said, if Einstein were around today, he would
probably have a Yahoo or Hotmail email account and his submissions
would not be accepted by the arxiv. Its a shame, but that's just how
things are. Maybe my papers are not 'good enough' for whatever reason
(I have not actually submitted most of my papers for publication) but I
will still stand by my results, because I am confident that the
mathematics is sound. Nothing you have said has convinced me otherwise.

Daryl, this goes back to some papers by Doughty - I'll have to dig them
out again to see exactly what he says. I think his results indicate
that there is something singular about the horizon (which is not
surprising as it coincides with the 'surface' of the point mass). But
your conclusion that you cannot hover at the event horizon is probably
correct. I disagree with you that a test particle is going to fall 'in'
because there is no 'in'. Rather the test particle is going to fall
'out' - into the second exterior sheet. I recommend you take a look at
my paper where I discuss this and its consequences.

My 'luminiferous aether' is none other than the physical vacuum. I
don't need an experiment to detect it because we already know it's
there. My aether does not define an absolute frame of reference that it
can be detected in the way you suggest. Read my paper and maybe you

What "paper"? Do you have it anywhere on the web? In arxiv? If you
