Abstract
The plotting of the dimensions of rU and the radius of CMB-photon (rγ) vs. tU, and
time of localization (tγ-loc), shows that all this parameters must increment
simultaneously, in order to preserve the constants. The simulation itself is attached as an
addendum and shows best-fit with known markers. The expansion formula couples
quantum and relativistic parameters, predicting observable: ∆rγCMB and ∆nγ, effect not
accounted by black energy.
Introduction
Albert Einstein and Willem De Sitter (3), contributed the alternative flat model, a
geometry, that allows Euclidian triangles. The NASA observations correspond with a
flat parameter of inflation-expansion.
There is a wide consensus in a Big-Bang, which does not start from a singularity,
a non dimensional point but still could be debated, if the generated velocity of particles,
could overcame their own gravitational attraction to drive expansion. The origin could
correspond to a quantum limit of very high energy density, the Planck mass
(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)
.
The latter allows a cosmic chronology of CMB (17)(18), that only from the Era of
last dispersion to present, a change of temperature of black body emission, from
T=3000 K to T=2.725 K. This, corresponds to a Doppler or shift of frequency spectra of
z =1000 over. Hence, either a wavelength elongation process or the stretching-out of
space became transducers of an increment of λ into and magnification of the space-time
dimensions or vice verse.
However, the relationship which is cause and which effect, becomes clearer by
noticing that expansion it’s coupled (19)(20) to an increment of nγ, which is predicted by
PdC-dependent elongation and not by black energy (21).
The simulation results, predicts that phenomena, like the Casimir effect (22)(23)(24),
which has been attributed to virtual energy, could be alternatively explained by
parametric up conversion (PupC) (25) (26).
The universe has maintained an energy potential allowing expansion and life;
therefore, it is still far a way from equilibrium. However, if the cosmos is self-contained
could not be and open thermodynamic system. This apparent contradiction was solved,
by considering that the universe by photon elongation could be maintained for a long
period of time, as a system away from its equilibrium (15) (27).
2
results in less-energetic photons, which by reentering in the PdC chain, like quanta of
less and less energetic content; prevent significant reversibility and product
accumulation, conformed a temporal vector the arrow of time.
Results
Gravity shapes the geometry of the universe; stellar light is curved by the
gravitational field of the sun, but the expansion parameter has been characterized as
showing cero (or flat) curvature (28)(2)(3). This discrepancy in measurable effects may
indicate different causes.
These roles may be complementary rather than antagonistic, since the continuum-
quantum elongation of CMB-radiation, would dimensions vacuum and galactic
recession. The non-continuum quantum structure of matter by its gravitational
attractions, could locally overcome uniform CMB-expansion, driving galaxies into
clustering and forming cumulus.
The newly formed CMB-photons, continuously and smoothly, spread their energy
over a stretching-out space-time. However, because of their uniform emergence, would
increase the size of the galactic voids at a greater recession velocity ( vr = H 0 × rr ), than at
the intergalactic distances within clusters.
The energy of Planck particles, as primordial CMB generates matter and a leftover
of residual CMB radiation, which was calculated: 2.35310-10 MeV×3.781087γ = 8.89
×1077 MeV. The simulation checks this value, as a function of 411 CMB-photons per
cm3 multiplied by the present volume of the universe (17)(18).
However, since simulation adopted a critical energy (EC) of two protons per m3,
total residual CMB-energy represents 0.005 % from EC. If black energy would be
detected, the indicated percentage could be decreased, according to a set of more
endurable values.
The cosmos observed coordinates of expansion (rU vs. tU) plotted in fig. 1, fits the
predicted quantum structured-expansion of CMB, calculated by multiplying the ∆nγ by
∆Vγ [cm3] (Compton scattering volume). The CMB-photon enlargement (elongation),
responds to the relationship: radius of the photon over its time of localization, rγ/ tγ loc=
c, velocity of light (11) .
3
Figure 1 shows that expansion, after the formation of galaxies could be measured
by recession velocity (v), for galactic recession-distances: r [Mpc] = v/H0. The summa
of distances of the widening galactic voids plus galactic recessions integrates as a
universe radius, which keeps the relation: rU[Mpc]=c/H0. Calculation shows, that a
galactic void 50 Mpc wide, will increase by a linear recession velocity 50 times greater
than for an inter-galactic distance of 1Mpc.
Fig.1: Observation vs. calculated Quantum Integrated Expansion. The figure, shows that the
multiplication: nγ×Vγ[cm3]= VU[cm3], determines the quantum-integrated volume of the
universe in cm3, under the relativistic restriction: radius of the universe in cm over its elapsed
time in seconds: rU[cm]/ tU[s] = c[cm/s]. If the chronological radius of the universe equals
recession distance: r = rr . The velocity of expansion could be measure, after the appearance of
U
galaxies, as a recession velocity: vr = rr[Mpc]× H ∴ rU[Mpc] × H0[km/s/Mpc]=c, as shown in
0
the figure: c[km/s] / rr [Mpc] = H [km/s/Mpc]. Hence, rU= tU× c ∴ tU× c ×H0= c ⇒H0 =1/tU =

The relationship of the fundamental constants to the quantum parameters of CMB
elongation
The simulation shows a role of c defining the causality horizon as a function of the
rates of progress of CMB universe radius.
This model was simulated by keeping track of the energy space-time relation
using the transformation of particle energy into a Compton wavelength:
h . Dimensionally λc is similar to γ, this relationship allows to reach from its
λc =
2 πmc
duality the equivalence of γ in terms of a wavelength λ and frequency v.

Fig.2: Plotting merging quantum and relativistic parameters. The quantum dimensions
starting as: rγPl / tγPl = c, are quantum dimensions which interrelate with c a relativistic
parameter. The photon radius rγ as 4/3×π×(rγ)3 adds to the observable universe volume
dimensions, tγ-loc does not, but c links universe radius as a function of the universe time. Total
energy (ET = entropy + enthalpy) for its conservation at the level of CMB, requires a
compensatory mechanism like the spontaneous PdC-process, in which the halving of the energy
of 1 photon generates 2 of twice the original-λ and conservation of momentum. Accordingly,
even if photons are subject to Gravity, a dynamic CMB structured-vacuum could expand by a
PDC-dependent ∆nγ and ∆Vγ, a process independent of Gravity.
The model is concordant with the observed behaviour of vacuum increasing the
distancing between galaxies, but without apparently interfering with their gravity-
dependent mutual approach.

The formula predicts that Hubble’s constant, a measure of cosmic expansion,
could also encompass a function of a quantized treatment of critical energy. Thus a
decrease in CMB-photon density, quantum dimensionally relates to a radius and nγ
simultaneous increments with that of the universe time and the time of CMB-
localization.

Fig.3: Inflation. Illustrate that the total energy ET (or critical energy Ec) becomes quantized in
the course of inflation as Planck (Pl) particles each one generating by PdC two photons of half
energy. Thus, expanding by 2×8=16 the space-time locus, allowing a chain reaction of
additional Planck photons incoming into the inflationary universe, up to summa of their energy
equals ET.
It is widely accepted, than from a source outside the actual parameters of physics,
the universe started at the Planck dimensions, creating a “quantum universe” that could
be defined by: mPl=[Ñc/G]1/2. The Planck limit: 1.22×1022 MeV, could be described as a
theoretical particle, but also corresponds to the minimum dimensions for a black hole,
according to quantum mechanics.

tU increments in relationship to the universe radius, and vaporization time would
exceed that of Planck. Calculation shows, that if all the critical energy would be
incorporated into the quantized universe at once, the resulting increase in mass would
not allow the Big-Bang.
Figure 2: Inflation for a Planck or quantum structured universe, may implicate that
the initial cosmic increment in volume, would be dominated by the dynamics of
increment in the number of Planck particles. This because, even to the end of inflation
the number of Planck particles, which PdC degraded to lower energy levels, would be
smaller than the lastly incorporated as Planck. Hence, at the end of inflation the energy
spread would have frequency dispersion with some similarity to that of a black body
spectrum.
Penrose (8), calculate the entropy of the primordial cosmos to present as 10150.
Gravitational entropy Sgrav=10121 (30).
The entropy based in the disorder increment for the summa of photons and
baryons for the period ∆Sγ+B[nγ=nB/prs] =1088 k. Thermal of relic CMB and gravitational
8
entropies have been considered the main components of the universe entropy, that up to
present volume equals 1088 k (Boltzmann constant’s) units (30).
Fig. 4: Increment of CMB system entropy (∆SCMB). The chronology of CMB density
(∆δγ: nγ /cm3), was used to plot normalized the entropy change from the Era of equal
number of photons and baryons to present, ∆SCMB[nγ=nB/prs].The latter, is illustrated by
vertical lines, which integrate the decreasing enthalpy (∆H: full lines) with its
corresponding entropy increase (∆S: broken lines). The cosmos volume increases from
1.5×1048 cm3 to 9.3×1084 cm3. Photon density decreases according to a geometric
progression 1.25×10-1. The c appears to indicate the presence of a space-time restriction
to expansion. As described: Vγ-RELIC-CMB =2.5×10-3 cm3 × nγprt = total VU-RELIC-CMB or
VU-prt =9.3×1084 cm3.
The mol, a unity of density was used as a function of VU, to assay entropy of the
CMB system, which according to Boltzmann for an x state of a box volume: the
constant: k = 1.38×10 -23 J/K = 8.614×10 -11 MeV/K and entropy ∆S = k×logV.
If the initial number of Planck particles (nγPl) could had remain constant, n that
represents the number of photons should not be included in the equation. For the period
nγ=nB/prs: SCMB[nγ=nB/prs]:
However, for the Era of equals number of photon and baryons, the increment was
only between nγ=1.9×1078 and nγCMB =3.8×1087, because most of the primordial photons
9
were consumed in the generation of matter. The increment requires introducing this
difference as ∆nγCMB.

The very low, remaining energy in residual CMB, about only 1/20000 of EC,
reduces its role after having transfer energy for the formation of matter, to only its
elongation. Hence, spontaneous PdC is a process with entropy gain, which as shown in
the preceding equations, is mainly a function of expanding vacuum, and the increment
in nγ.
Evaluation of PdC-entropy
PdC at the cosmos level could magnify its entropy impact by the space-time
changes incrementing quantum disorder over the totality of Ec. This one implicates at
least an energy dimension 20000 times larger, than that of residual CMB. The resulting
quantum disorder is additional, but could be differentiated and separately calculated.

It is outside the scope of this work, to advance the understanding of the physical
nature of time, but tU a relativistic parameter and tloc, a quantum parameter appear as
linked as shown by Eq.8. This one, incorporate as a function of G, a constant involved
into the warping of relativistic space, both dimensions of time which also became link
10
as interdependent with simultaneous increments of the CMB-quantum and cosmic
radiuses.
tloc results from an inverse relationship of frequency 1/v. This, allows to infer that
tloc encompass an oscillatory relationship to space because c/λ=v ∴ 1/ c/λ= tloc. The
equation: λ/tloc=c, predicts that by increasing tloc would decrease the energy of λ or vice
versa.
The sodium atoms in the confinement media respond to the light by entering into
superposition. The atoms may acquire two energy states simultaneously (31), in where
the photons become entangled, transferring into the atoms the light’s characteristics of
shape, amplitude and phase (35). Subsequent excitation of the atoms, returns into emitted
light the original information
Hence, the thermodynamic structure within a confinement locus, allows that the
quantum dimensions and the “energy parameters” of a light pulse, become uncoupled
(19)(20)
, suggesting that their link was mediated by tloc.
Conclusions
The cosmos if self-contained could not be open. This apparent contradiction was
solved, by considering that the universe by photon elongation could be maintained for a
long period of time, as a system away from its equilibrium. Elongation, allows a partial
recreation of the non-equilibrium potential by recycling photons, through the temporal
11
bottleneck of the PdC process, reentering in the PdC chain like quanta of less and less
energetic content.

A Model Dimensioning the Space-Time by Parametric-Down Conversion
Alfred Bennun
Graduate School of Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey*

It was assumed that primordial energy could be described as a wave function. A simulation using
parametric down conversion which increments the number of photons, but at a longer wavelength, allows
to show a natural unfolding of the space-time. The process, from the Planck energy limit to the present
Cosmic Microwave Background radiation (CMB), could be described as a gradient or continuum. In this,
the length of the primordial wave, the number of photons and the associated time double 107 times. Thus,
allowing the natural surging of parameters for time and wavelength of localization which could be added
to the usual time-energy or temperature axis. Cosmic volume grows naturally as a function of multiplying
the continuous increments in volume of localization by that of photon number. The end of Inflation
corresponds to the time of localization needed for the change of phase involved in scission of forces.
The simulation initiates at the joint Planck localization volumes instead that at a singularity
The parameters of the changing space-time during the Inflationary Era are described using a
different model than the positive vacuum mechanism of Guth et al (1) (2) (3) (4) and Linde (5) (6) (7) (8) (9). One
of the major objections to the presence of a singularity at the initiation of the Big-Bang (10) (11) is that
conceptually it should be described as a dimensionless point. The problematic resulting from a physical
description of the universe initiated from a non-dimensional geometry with matter at infinite density was
an incentive for the development of alternative hypothesis like String Theory (12). To overcome these
objections it was inferred that primordial energy could be conceptualized as a radiation that even if not yet
characterized its evolution could be described in terms of wave functions.
There is not a theoretical limit to how high could be the frequency of a radiation; the simulation
starts at the initial energy quanta the Planck energy limit 1.22 x 1022 MeV (Mega Electron Volt). This
allows that the number of primordial photons, required to reach the energy equivalent to the critical mass,
could be confined (13) in a very small but still tri-dimensional space. Accordingly, a radiation of ultra-high
frequency could emanate from confinement (14) within space restrictions which would not hold the kinetic
energy required for baryonic particles to reach the temperature needed to start the hot Big-Bang (10) (15).
Anton Zeilinger (16) and Y. S. Lee (17) showed that the ultra-violet laser incidence on a non-lineal
crystal through the process of parametric down conversion from high to lower energy photons, allows
each photon to divide into two of longer wavelengths. The individual photons energy is inversely
proportional to their wavelength. The simulation correlates the evolution of cosmic energy by the increase
in the number of photons and their wavelength increment.
Radiation temperature and radiation energy are equivalents, but the simulation uses units of energy
rather of temperature because the latter, conceptually could be related to the kinetic energy of matter. The
latter plays the initial role in the hot big-bang whereas the simulation assumes that primordial energy
could be regarded as a mass-less intertwined complex of strong, weak and electromagnetic forces. Even if
1
is not fully characterized, primordial energy could fit the description of electromagnetic radiation through
its treatment as a wave function which shows that the possibility to find an energy quanta in a given space-
time parameter is a function of the square of its amplitude.
Electro-magnetic energy itself subject to gravity, by its elongation from smaller to larger wave
localization dimensions oppose the force of gravity. This propagation will appear as an arrow of time (25)
(26) (27)
and of space expansion. On the other hand, since the volume of localization of particles bearing
mass could not evolve from smaller to larger values, as waves do, would only be able to oppose expansion
through their mutual gravitational attraction.
Simulation parameters
Assuming that primordial energy in the form of energy packets is not subject to interactions at the
initial stages of the cosmos, it could be discussed according to the solution of Schrödinger’s equation for a
harmonic oscillation known as a wave function Ψ(x):
Ψ ( x, t ) = A cos(kx − wt + ϕ )
Where A is the maximum amplitude of the function; k is the number of wave; w is the angular
frequency; φ is the phase of the movement; and x and t are the spatial and the temporary variables.
This approach allows that, independently of the lack of characterization of primordial energy, this
one could be described in terms of frequency evolution.
Hence, time of localization and volume (space) of localization, emerge naturally. Wavelength is
the space or distance for the wave function between two peaks. The wave amplitude could increase as the
wave propagates. A time dependent cosmic relationships with quantum mechanics are reflected in that the
probability to find the particle in an interval x, x+dx is the square of the module of the wave

function Ψ ( x) dx , which integrated is: ∫ Ψ ( x) dx = 1
−∞
Then, the probability per unit of length (or probability density) to find the particle in x
2
is Ψ (x) and is related to the square of the wave amplitude.
Number of stage (N): shows decreasing by half the Planck energy limit (EPl) according to
progression (1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, etc.) ending at 1/ 2106 = 1/ (8.11 x 1031), or the presently residual energy of
CMB photons after 106 stages plus initial (0) total 107 stages.

Planck energy limit (EPl): the three fundamental constants: G (Newton’s constant=6.67 x 10-11 m3 x
kg x s ), ħ (Planck constant=4,135 x 10-21 MeV x Hz-1) and c (velocity of light = 2,997 x 1010 cm x s-1),
-1 -2
hc 5
EPl= = 1.22 x 1022 MeV, initial energy of primordial photon.
G
CMB photon packets: Best fit thermal distribution of a black-body spectrum: actual mean
temperature (T) of 2.725 Kº converted to 2.35 x 10-10 MeV (Mega Electron Volts). Frequency peak: 1.604
x 1011 Hz; and wavelength peak: 1.9 x 10-1 cm.
To calculate, according to Wien Law, emission peak for a black body:
T=2.897 x 10-3 meter °K /λpeak. For a temperature (T) of 2.73 °K, the wavelength peak: 1.06 x 10-1
cm.
Calculation of critical energy: 2.35 x 10-10 MeV multiplied by the actual number of CMB photons
(3.74 x 1087) equals 8.79 x 1077 MeV, which only represent 0.005 % of the total energy or critical mass for
a self-contained universe (1.702 x 1082 MeV), equivalent to about 2 protons per cubic meter.
Energy of wavelength (Eλ): starts at the value of EPl and each stage decreases by half the energy to
end at the actual value of CMB. This procedure yielded a total number of 107 stages; and allows the
dimensioning of the energy parameter.
In Table 1 denominated for primordial energy: Radiation Wavelength (λ) and a Table 2 average λ
(black body to the photon packets corresponding to each stage), according to the formula [c = f x λ], were
c = velocity of light (2.997 x 1010 cm x s-1).
Time of λ-localization (tλ-loc): corresponding to each wavelength. According to the relationship for
frequency: [tλ-loc= ħ/E=1/f=λ/c] expressed in centimetres.
Time (t) expressed in seconds [t x c = 2r] was used to calculate the time of localization for
photons, calculated considering 2r = λ results in value of localization for EPl energy limit that equals 5.40
x 10-44 s. Similar value could be obtained according to:
hG
tPl = = 5.39 x 10-44 s.

c
Photon number (nγ): incrementing according to the progression: initial value x (2)N. The critical
mass divided by the Planck Energy Limit results in the initial value 1.40 x 1060 photons.
The values of energy per photon (Eλ), in accordance to the equation: [Eλ =ħ x f], were used to
obtain the frequency values in Hz, which were calculated but not included in the table.
Volume of λ-localization (Vλc-loc): according to the formula in cm3: [Vλc-loc= 4/3 x π x λc3]. In the
formula of a sphere, r3 was replaced by λc3.
Radius of localization (λc) based in the Compton wavelength of an electron (λc=ħ/mec) value: 2.426
-12
x 10 m. This is considered analogous to a radius of localization (λc) according to λc=λ/2π. The value λc
allows relating of particles to wavelength, and, therefore, Vλc-loc has a similar expression to volumes of
localization for particles [Vp-loc= 4/3 x π x r3], used in Table 2.
Range of values of λc: Table 1: from stage 0: 1.62 x 10-33 cm; duplicating in value until stage 56:
1.17 x 10-16 cm.; Table 3: from stage 96: 8.19 x 10-5 cm; duplicating in value until stage 106: 8.39 x 10-2
cm.

Radius of the Universe (Ur): calculated by compounding the lengthening of photon trains by
simultaneous doubling the number of photons and doubling the wavelength and amplitude according to
Ur= ((Vλc-loc x nγ) x (3/4) x (1/π))1/3 in cm x 1.05805 x 10-18, equivalent in light years as unit of length.
This formula came from the formula for a Universe volume: [UV= Vλc-loc x nγ= (4/3) x π x (Ur)3].
It was assumed that the transversal polarization of the oscillatory axis of the electromagnetic force results
from the scission of the strong force at 1016 MeV, and the weak at 1012 MeV. The separation of these
forces according to the two complementary axis allows volume to increase according to a cubic
exponential associated to the rate of lengthening of each photon train up to stage 33. Up to this stage, was
considerer that the predominant force for Inflation was the increment in time of localization from the
Planck 3.39 x 10-43 s. to the Higgs boson 2.44 x 10-26 s. From stage 56 to 96, in order to obtain a
comparative particle chronology as shown in table 2, it was discontinue this parameter and was included
an energy (temperature)-time axis. In table 3, to describe Expansion after recombination, the parameter
radius of Universe was calculated using the value for stage 96 or 4.03 x 105 light years multiplied by the
progression from (2.84)0 to reach (2.84)10 or the present stage 106.
Time of particle localization (tp-loc): according to the relativistic formula which allows to relate
radius of particles (r), to the velocity of light and time (t) expressed in seconds [t x c = 2r]. The Planck
particle corresponds with the Planck radius of 1 x 10-33 cm, energy equivalent to 1 x 1032 K°. The values
for the radius of localization in centimetres: quark charm: 10-16, pion: 10-12, proton: 10-13 and electron: 3 x
10-10. However, it has been postulated that in the earlier space-time the value of the radius of particles
were smaller than in the present. If so, a proportionality factor, alpha (α), should be used to correct these
t
values: α x r = c .
2
Temperature-time axis (t): could be correlated with Eλ, on the basis that, to decrease energy either
as a wavelength or temperature by half, requires a corresponding doubling of the preceding elapsed time.
This rate of 4 relating the decrease in energy to an expansion of the associated time may reflect a rhythm
for the enlargement of the space time. This may relate to a relationship in which it is required that the time
of localization increase by 2 to allow that the radius of localization could also simultaneously increase by
2.
At temperature equilibriums, photons radiate with the energetic distribution of a black body. The
finding that at 3.79 x 105 light years from the Big-Bang, a surface of “last scattering” with a temperature
equilibrium of 3000 K° originates the CMB photon-packets which could be interpreted as a red shift, z =
3000 K°, to the 2.73 K° observable at present. However, it is commonly accepted that this temperature
gradient is a part of the time-temperature axis correlating the chronology of the Big-Bang (28) (29) (30) (31) (32),
and, furthermore, a shift on a continuum may only displace the values delimiting the gradient.
This correlates with a decreasing progression from 2.59 x 10-7 to 2.35 x 10-10 MeV, halved 10
times or about (1/2)10. The increase in the Universe radius from the time of last scattering to the present
could be expressed as a 3.63 x 104 radius increment or a progression of about (2.84)10. Calculation by
parametric down conversion shows that, during the same period, the number of photons would multiply by
210, which is a partial increment of the total one. Accordingly, the simulation adopted a gradient or
continuum of decreasing energy in terms of frequency, scaled to show that an increment of wavelength not
only decreases energy by half, but also requires the doubling of the associated elapsing time.
This approximation was regarded as acceptable in terms of the simulation requirements, and
astronomical observations were extrapolated to initial conditions according to Planck energy limit, which
4
allow calculating that after 107 stages of decreasing energy by half, it would reach a value concordant
with the present one. The time elapsed from the Era of equal particle to radiation number to the present,
shows that a photon number increase over particles by about 231, suggesting a partial energy conservation
mechanism by parametric down conversion. The discrepancy disappears by taking in account that most of
the energy present as primordial energy was diverted for the formation of ordinary matter and dark matter
and dark energy (33). Hence, preventing that photon number could increase by only accounting their
formation by parametric down conversion, the stages allocated for this process are indicated by the
question marks in Table 2. Thus, allowing that only 1/20,000 of the total initial energy could reach the
frontier of last scattering.
A supercontinuum laser light obtained under laboratory conditions (34) (35) shows a progressive
wavelength elongation, but it would require conditions no leading to entropy or ideal, to show energy
conservation as a number of photons increment. A model, taking in account parametric down conversion
allows an elegant solution for energy conservation. The mathematical artefact of dividing by two the
energy levels was adopted because it was assumed to help to pinpoint the levels of CMB energy within
time and space parameters. This process allows showing that the dissipative potential created by
wavelength elongation could be the transducer into a cumulative potential (19) of increasing photon
number. The model adopted reference values shown in bold characters from observationally and
theoretically accepted concepts to determine best-fitting of the several treated simulations. This coupling
not only allows a dissipative potential in a self-contained Universe, but also brakes time symmetry. This
effect not only results from a thermo dynamic down flow, but also from the fact that the vector direction
for a single packet of energy generating two or more packets is kinetically the favourable direction.
Consequently, the multiple interactions required for more than one energy packet to regenerate a previous
single stage of the continuum, would be a much less probable event.
Time and volume of wavelength localization are additional limits to the energy axis
The velocity of the changes of phase of a sinusoidal wave generated by a laser pulse in a cell of
caesium gas exceeded by 300 times the velocity of propagation of light in a vacuum (36). Therefore, the
primordial radiation changes of phase resulting from the continuous decrease in its frequency and the
dissociation of strong, weak and electromagnetic forces and/or transition between a virtual and ordinary
time and space of localization could be assumed to occur within the time parameters of the Inflationary
Era (28) (37) (38). The time lapse of inflation has to include the time of localization for wavelengths at the
energy level characterizing the events. Therefore, it may better define the time limits of Inflation. The
latter could not to be limited by the velocity of light propagation in space because its contribution during
the Inflationary period would be non significant. Accordingly, the rate of increase of cosmic radius and
that of the number of photons formed by the multiplication chain during the Inflationary period were
assumed not to be influenced by the insignificant distance travelled by light during this period.

The emerging from confinement of primordial radiation into a continuously unfolding space-time
indicates the convenience to relate the decrease in frequency to a time of wave localization rather than to
relate directly energy evolution to an ordinary time scale. Accordingly, in Table 1, this parameter allows
not to ignore that the theoretical meaning of time of localization provides, as a function of its energy, a
physical lower limit for the cosmos existential time required for a wave dimensioning into or within the
space-time. Example: If a shutter timer allows only the emission of a single violet photon, the same timing
would not allow the emission of a red photon, which would occur only, if the timer is set to the time
dimension of the latter photon.
The Planck energy limit (EPl) is the same quantity for an energy packet either particle or wave
(1.22 x 1022 MeV). However, it could be assumed based in that duality as either photon or wave allows
description in terms of different space-time conformations, but could be useful to only differentiate by
assigning the denomination time of λ-localization for waves (tλ-loc) and in the equation refers 2r as equal to
λ, and for particles or photons, the time of particles localization (tp-loc) referring 2r as equal to the
diameter. Table 1, in order to emphasize the mass-less primordial energy condition, equates EPl in terms of
time of λ-localization as 3.39 x 10-43 s.
The dispersion of trains of increasing number of photons would conforms an arrow of time
according to the increment in time of localization and would inflate space by the increase in their number
and volume of photon localization. In Table 1 the scission of strong force at 1016 MeV and weak at 1012
MeV relates to a change of phase that would occur at much greater velocity than that allowed by the
celerity of light. Table 1 emphasizes the role of time localization in generating the Inflationary time and its
ending at the time of the scission of the weak force.
At stage 33, the energy per photon corresponds to a tλ-loc of 2.91 x 10-33 s., a time usually assumed
to end Inflation. At the end of inflation the initial number CMB photons (1.40 x 1060 photons) multiplied
by 233 (or 8.59 x 109) have increased to 1.20 x 1070 photons, but since the radius has increased according
to (4) N-1 x rλc to 2.35 x 1020 cm. the Universe radius has reached 249 light years. Also it could be
calculated that the number of photon density decreases to 2.21 x 108 photons per cm3. At stage 56, the
energy of wavelength (Eλ) has decreased to 1.69 x 105 MeV, which, according to Connes mathematical
treatment (39), is the value that allows the appearance of the Higgs boson.
When the dimensions of the cosmic time axis exceed that required for tλ-loc for a single wave, the
tendency to further expansion becomes less dependent of subsequent tλ-loc increment and more of the
incremental volume of photons localization and their increase in number. During the Expansionary time
the velocity of light propagation in space could make a substantial contribution to the rate of increase in
6
the value of the cosmic radius. Table 2 shows that at the moment of the Higgs boson formation
corresponds to a value 2.5 x 10-11 s. in the time-temperature axis. This value greatly exceeds the tp-loc
required for localization of all the listed particles, which indicates that particle formation is not limited by
time requirements and will mainly depend of the cosmic energy level.
Table 1 also shows that matter particles could not have occupied ordinary three-dimensional space
during most of the Inflationary Era but only at its ending. The generation of mass would thereafter oppose
the expansionary tendency of radiation.
Table 2: N equals 41 stages in progression. 11 reported. Symbol (?): not extrapolated. In bold: nγ
at time of equality between radiation to particle (p); t p-loc : t x c = 2r, radius (r), velocity of light
(c) and time (t). The time-temperature axis shows a space time rhythm of 4, compounding a time
of localization incrementing by 2 to a simultaneously increase by 2 of the radius of localization.
Table 2 takes into account that, after formation of ordinary matter and dark matter and energy,
only 1/20,000 of the total initial energy would reach the frontier of last scattering. Therefore,
transformation of an energy gradient of radiating wave packets into dark energy and matter, and ordinary
matter, may have followed a sequence of stages. At these stages, photons still would be duplicating, but
also disappearing by converting their energy into the equivalent resting mass of particles. The
corresponding extrapolation for the number of photons column was not done because it could have been
less than accurate. This was resolved bypassing stages 56 to 70 by using the question mark symbols.
Table 2 shows that at the stage 60 the energy level still exceeds that required to create the masses
corresponding to quarks (according to E=mc2) expressed in MeV, which are: charm: 5 x 103, bottom: 1.6
x 103 and up, down and strange below 1.5 x 102. Quantum physics assigns to each particle a minimum
volume of localization which corresponds to the radius of 3 x 102 Fermis for an electron and 1/10th of
Fermis or 10-14 cm for a more massive proton.
Table 3: The final 11 stages from 96 plus an unnumbered initial one, at the frontier of last
scattering, to present are shown under the premise that the value of critical or initial energy:
1.71 x 10 82 MeV have decreased, after formation of ordinary matter, dark energy and dark
matter, to a total remnant energy of 8.89 x 10 77 MeV. The remnant energy emerges from the
frontier of last scattering as the radiation spectra from a black body at 3,000K. Elongating of
7
this radiation spectra ends at that of a black body at 2.725K, the presently detectable
temperature of relic CMB. Energy conservation at all 11 stages in table 3 could be shown by
multiplying the energy of the respective wavelength by the number of photons: Eλ x nγ. Some of
the obtained values could be correlated with astronomically observable ones which are shown in
bold characters.
Table 2 and 3 shows that, from the era in where radiation and particles were in equal proportion (2
78
x 10 ) to the present, the photon number increased as illustrated from about stage 75 to the present by a
factor close to the one reported in the literature of 1.9 x 109 CMB photons per each baryonic particle.
Table 3 includes observational values obtained by the astronomical survey of CMB, within the
parameter from the era of last scattering to the present, which shows these photons as decreasing in
energy, but, as we assumed increasing in number. At the CMB emerging from recombination temperature
of 3,000 Kº, the corresponding number of photons would be 3.44 x 1084, which will progressively
increment from stage 97 to 107 to reach a photon number of 3.78 x 1087, which closely corresponds to the
observed one.
These 10 stages of halving energy were related to the exponential increase of Universe Radius
according to the exponential 2.84. Hence, from the actual age of the universe, 13.76 x 109 light years,
were subtracted first 8.92 x 109 light years to obtain the initial time framing of the last division. To the
resulting number 4.85 x 109 was thereafter subtracted 3.14 x 109 light years. The ten-stage subtractions
ended at 3.79 x 105 light years which is regarded as the time of recombination at the end of last scattering.
This is one of the relationships that allow extrapolating astronomically observable values with those
obtained by simulation. The Radius in light years corresponds to the chronometric scale of time based in
the velocity of light.
Dividing the actual Universe volume (9.34 x 1084 cm3) by the CMB packets photon number (3.78
x 1087), it obtained a volume of λ-localization of about 2.43 x 10-3 cm3 similar to the one calculated using
the mean value of the CMB wavelength packet.
Obviously, it is unlikely, that the present time could correspond to the end of the last division.
Therefore, Table 3 partial simulation of a period of the expansionary time, should be regarded as only an
8
illustrative draft. However, it may provide a theoretical framework for a more rigorous computational
analysis plotting the elongation and cooling down of CMB radiation to characterize the Expansionary Era.
Conclusions
The purpose of the simulation is to illustrate that there are energy-space-time relationships, which
are physically ingrained in wavelength elongation as described by the model and may be verifiable by
concordance with astronomical observation. The NASA, COBE and WASP space probes (29) (30) (31) (32)
show a flat cosmic geometry that, if not to require a very exact critical mass, indicates that at the Universe
origin, a mass-less primordial energy describable by a wave function could have preceded the formation
of matter.
The concept of frequency leads to the conclusion that elongation of a wavelength would allow to
develop a chronology in which time naturally appears as a function of changes in the Eλ of expanding
space. The latter process could be characterized as resulting from simultaneous increments in the intrinsic
time of λ-localization (∆ tλ-loc), in the volume of λc-localization (∆Vλc), and in the photon number ∆ nγ by
parametric down conversion. Hence, Inflation at much greater velocity than light may be explained as a
phase transition for the increasing time, volume of localization and photon number decompressing the
space-time dimensions. Starting from the Planck time, the dynamics of the increment of the wave
amplitude would continuously decrease probability at the quantum level of the thermodynamic structure,
but, summing up to integrate from past to future a causality arrow within the cosmic energy field.
The model suggests that by describing primordial energy not shaped as particles, but as if it had
the frequency property of photons, their energy dissipative potential when surging from confinement by
increasing in number and dispersing in unfolding space evolve as expected according to the dynamics of
an Einstein universe (18) (40). In this one, the continuous nature of the space-time requires that time and
space could expand simultaneously. The linkage to time dilation would not surge naturally from the
description of a universe emerging by the inflow of particles to conform space according to the prevalent
mechanistic description of Inflation (4). The Expansionary tendency of a radiation, subject to gravity,
could be explained because the process of elongation itself is not subject to the centripetal tendency of
gravity, which results from the events of creation of dark and ordinary matter.
These observations appear to suggest that astronomical verification could be used to analyse the
validity of the model on the basis of the included partial Table 3 of the Expansionary Era simulation. The
expansionary time scale required for inflation associated to the time of quantum localization, responds to
the equation λ / tλ-loc = c. The scaling of universe radius from 1.9 x 10-31 to 1.38 x 1010 light years could be
made to correspond with an equation for a universe time of localization: Ut-loc = λc x (nγ)1/3/ c. The
obtained as corresponding values, from 6.04 x 10-24 to 4.36 x 1017 seconds.
The complementation between continuum and non continuum geometries, described by Connes
(39), requires additional characterizations. One may surge from Schrödinger’s equation, which shows that
probability density is a function of the square of the amplitude module of the wave. According to the
9
Heisenberg principle, a continuum of wavelength increments with concomitant increments in amplitude
would yield a gradient of increasing uncertainty. However, this is a cause-effect relationship. Therefore,
the evolution of primordial energy into relic CMB and, maybe, dark energy, may have a thermodynamic
structure describable as a continuum with predictability equivalent to a causality vector. The non-
continuous geometry would be describable in terms of quantum properties of ordinary and, maybe, dark
matter. Hence, either could show time dependent energy arrows which link within cosmic evolution
relativity and quantum mechanics.
Evolution of cosmic energy as a wave function of primordial energy packets could be simulated by
treatment as a continuum, linking uncertainty with causality. A Universe inflated by matter, in which the
modification of the kinetic energy of particles occurs without that of their resting mass eludes the concept
of a continuum. Hence, matter particles that disperse according to temperature-gravitation equilibriums
will rather reflect properties that fit within the non-continuum description of the Universe by Connes (39).
Both geometries could be differentiated in terms of how they structure the space time interrelationships.
The continuum surges from the thermodynamic structuring of primordial radiation and relic CMB without
time-reversibility. The non continuum surges from the quantum structuring of matter, which allow time
symmetry restricted to the particle and atomic levels. At the molecular or higher levels, apparent
violations of microscopic reversibility may be observable, but, this could be explained by synchronized
coupling between downhill and uphill energy flows. Therefore, the simulation by treating the evolution of
primordial energy as a radiation focalizes into the characterization of the continuum and shows some of its
interrelationships with the non-continuum as constituents of a single self-contained Universe.

Abstract
The plotting of the PdC continuum of CMB quanta elongation, when scaled vs.
the expansionary universe volume, shows a straight line curve. This one represents a
continuous thermodynamic-expansionary relationship, in which one photon entering
into a PdC cycle, distributes its original energy over a space-time locus incremented 16
times. By analogy, this may be considered a thermodynamic prediction equivalent to
“flat”, because any other numerical relationship, curves out of the observed relationship
between increments in number of photons and volume of the universe The particle and
radiation roles, may be complementary because CMB would dimension vacuum and
1
galactic recession, whereas the non-continuum quantum structure of matter, would be
the dominant effect over the geometric configuration of the universe curvature.
The universe has maintained an energy potential, allowing expansion and life;
therefore, it is still far away from equilibrium. However, if the cosmos is self-contained
could not be open. This apparent contradiction was solved, by considering that photon
elongation could play an operator role, continuously restructuring the cosmic
thermodynamic dissipative potential.
Introduction
Parameters for the chronology of space changes, during the inflationary Era of
the hot Big-Bang, had been develop based in the positive vacuum mechanism of Guth et
al (1) (2) (3) (4) and Linde (5) (6) (7) (8) (9). The hot Big-Bang hypothesis develops, a particle-
based thermodynamic chronology, with successful predictions like nucleosyntesis.
Energy, and matter inflow and outflow, through thermodynamic systems, allow
maintaining energy potentials, without reaching equilibrium. Primordial energy, could
2
be characterized as a matter precursor; therefore, Planck particles influx during
inflation, would be able to maintain the increasingly quantized-universe as open.
However, after becoming totally quantized, and reaching critical total energy,
its density should suddenly decrease, allowing entropy to increase and inflation to end.
Results
The following equations emphasize that for the same energy, the duality wave-
photon allows space-time dimensional differences.

Eq. 2. a) λ / tλ-loc = c (velocity of light) = 2.99792458×1010 cm/s.
Eq. 2. b) According to Compton scattering measurements the relationship λCMB/2π = rγ,
relationship between photon radius and time of localization: rγ / t γ -loc = c
Hence, c is not only the value for velocity of light propagation in vacuum, but
also restricts at a quanta level the inter-dependence between space dimensions as a
radius vs. time.
Eq. 2. c): ∆rU / ∆tru-loc= c. The relationship shows that the constant c, also determines
the cosmic relation that applies to vacuum, as if corresponding to the summa of its
constitutive quanta.
In eq. 2. a) y 2. b), terms are equal to c, and, therefore, equal within them.
Inflation
4
Inflation could, therefore, operate temporarily like an open system (14). An
isolated system, like a self contained universe, can exists as an open system, for as long
a bottleneck does not allow its energy potential to become dissipated by reaching
equilibrium. The Planck limits, prevents instantaneous events, allowing c to configure a
bottleneck by linking the stretching of a quantum space with its time of localization.
The value of this link is c, which remains invariable along inflationary and
expansionary Eras.
Fig.1: Inflationary influx of Planck Quanta; an invariant entropy phase, would remain constant even
when the quantum structured universe dramatically expands, provided continuous increment in the
number of Planck photons. The plotted values result from assuming that the influx of one Planck quantum
expands its locus space volume for another 15 quanta, which in turn undergo PdC-splitting. The process
end into the total energy contained in the universe quantized, with its radiation spectrum resembling that
of black body emission.
Fig. 1: The inflationary phase (1) (2) (3) could be described as occurring at a larger
velocity than that of light, because the initial space-time for a single Planck particle
would be growing exponentially as a function of the incoming Planck plus PdC quanta
multiplication. A uniform popping-out of photons allows an all directional growing of
the quanta structure of the space-time. Hence, velocity as the time required for
incrementing the universe radius could be larger than c, even when any reached radius
divided by its localization time equals c, the constant.

The number of photons progression illustrates that effect of splitting a single photon by
PdC yields two photons, each one increasing by 8 its volume and expanding quantum
space by 16, as shown bellow in two cycle’s space expands by a factor of 256:

Fig. 3: shows a correlation between the elongation curve for CMB calculated as
a Compton radius (λc) and the photon decrease in energy (Eγ) (18). The present volume
of the universe (VU) corresponds to the cosmic number of photons (nγ) multiplied by the
volume of λ-localization (Vλc-loc). The latter, calculated according to the Compton
wavelength (λc) measured by experimental collision interaction between an electron and
a photon: Vλc-loc = 4/3× π× λc3.

Fig.4: CMB elongation dependent-expansionary vacuum. The figure illustrates that the simulation fits
observation values from the Era of equal number of photons and baryons to present CMB. It shows a
continuum of radiation quanta of decreasing energy, with increasing photon number and volume.
Fig.4: The values (nγ) were scaled to show its time-dependent increase from Era
of equal number of photons and baryons t(nγ=nB), nγ = nB= 1.9×1078 at 2.391×105s to
t(109nγ>nB), nγpres. = 3.8×1087 at the present Era. The initial photon volume at t(nγ=nB)
Vγ(nγ=nB)= 9.5×10-31 cm3 × nγ equals the volume of the universe VU(nγ=nB)= 1.5×1048 cm3.
The PdC-dependent volume increase measured by the ratio of VU-pres. /VU(nγ=nB)=
6.2×1036 requires a sequence of 31 PDC-cycle γ-duplicating events. This sequence
generates a curve of value 16 responding to a thermodynamic tendency relating a PdC-γ
splitting 16 increments of γ volume with a 16 increments in the volume of universe
(flat?). The upper curve of value 17 predicts a larger universe volume (1.3×1089 cm3)
and the lower predicts a smaller universe (2.8×1081cm3).
However, it could be predicted, that along the parameters of space and time,
fluctuations between Up and Down Conversions, would settle into a relationship of
rates that could show in the Casimir effect appearance and disappearance of photons
with higher energy than CMB. These shorter λ photons are generated from CMB-
containing (constituted?) vacuum, and therefore, could be inconsistently attributed as
coming out of nothingness an assumption reserved to virtual energy, in accordance to
Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle.
PdC continuously generates new photons; the present time summa of their
diameters was calculated to reach a length of about to 72 km/s per Mpc. Therefore, PdC
present rate of CMB-splitting within one Mpc was found equivalent, to that of the
Hubble’s constant (H0). This velocity, because the photons emerge uniformly into
space, would add as the summa of the velocities according to the number of parsecs that
separates two galaxies. The radius of the universe divided by the present CMB-diameter
per photon equals the number of photons linearly aligned to cover the distance of the
universe radius.
7
Multiplied by of diameter of photon and divided by the universe radius express in
Mpc, 4216.446, result in the stretching out of every Mpc by the newly add photons
which represent recession velocity for each Mpc or H0 value:
Km
72
s × 4216.4Mpc = 3 × 105 Km ≈ c
1Mpc s
H 0 × rU [Mpc] = c
c
rU [Mpc] =
H0
Accordingly, the radius of the earth location to the origin of the universe, allows
causal contact, because the velocity calculated as the summa of recession per Mpc, does
not exceed c. The c relationship precedes and persists along the expanding radius of the
universe for any encompassed length of time because the value of H0 is a function of the
universe size and time. Recession has been shown to be accelerating. The question: it is
a mere casualty that, at the present time we have reached the maximum relativistic value
of the Hubble’s constant, allowing a causal integration for the present observable
universe?
Hence, calculation shows the equivalence between CMB vacuum expansion and
galactic recession indicating that both may result from the same process. PdC predicts
that even is the photons travel at the velocity of c, their space-time locus expansion is
the mechanism expanding CMB intergalactic vacuum. CMB lengthening or elongation
involves an increase in their time of localization. Accordingly, recession distance per
Mpc may increase and the number of Mpc lengthening the circumference of the
universe will also increase. However, the time increment required for subsequent PdC
cycles would compensate the increasing H0 tacking for expansion a longer time and
allowing a velocity of recession that remains equal to c.

The E.S.TI.R.E. (STRETCH) model predicts CMB-vacuum expansion by is constituted
quanta multiplication and locus enlargement, responding to the relationship rγ/ tγ loc= c,
velocity of light. The latter configures a continuously and uniformly stretching-out space-
time by PdC splitting photon cycles, increasing the radius of the universe (rU) and time of the
universe (tU) by the multiplication per 2.52 and volume by 16 a factor per PdC cycles.
The newly formed CMB-photons, as a result of their uniform emergence, would increase the
galactic voids at a greater recession velocity ( vr = H 0 × rr ) than for intergalactic distances
within clusters.
Fig. 5 The formula r[Mpc]×H0=v shows that a galactic void 50 Mpc wide will increase
by a recession velocity 50 times greater, than for an inter-galactic recession for galaxies 1Mpc
apart.
Accordingly, Fig. 5 shows that, because the voids encompasses larger spaces, than at
the intergalactic level, the voids allow the emergence of a greater number of photons,
than at the intergalactic spaces within cumulus. Hence, the stretching out of the voids,
could pressure nearby galaxies into greater proximity to each other. The observed
9
greater galactic density, bordering and enclosing the voids, it is observed as filamentary
and laminar galactic structures.
CMB, if a relic, only conserves 0.012% of the initial critical energy. It was
therefore assumed and used as a correction that at the end of the Inflationary period (11)
the energy of most primordial photons had been converted into ordinary and dark
matter. Connes (19) postulates the geometrical coexistence between a non-continuum and
a continuum (20). The simulation adapted this concept to that of coexistent
thermodynamic structures, in which the non-continuum is constituted by ordinary and
dark matter and the continuum, by the evolution of quanta of initial radiation and dark
energy. At the enunciation of the relativity theory (15) (16), CMB had not yet been
detected, and therefore could not be predicted a quanta constituted dynamic vacuum,
and a quanta dimensioning of the space-time, configuring galactic recession.
An always valid and illuminating guiding hypothesis, which I read from the
Penrose’s book 21 (translating from Spanish to English): “what fundamentally is needed,
is a subtle change of perspective… something that all of us had by pass”. For this advice
I am grateful.

Abstract
In the coordinates of the universe time versus cosmic radius, a plotting shows that the
universe radius in light years corresponding to 1.3×1028cm =4213.01Mpc, yields the observable
H0: H 0 = 71 km / s / Mpc
Introduction
A simulation, by applying a wave function treatment to Planck energy limit EPl, shows a
stretching quantum-space Big-Bang (1-7). In this theoretical description the chronology of the
space-time evolution, corresponds with a continuum process of wave-elongation (∆λ) discernible
as an increment in the number of CMB-photons of decreasing energy (8-17). This quanta-structure
constitutes the matter-free vacuum.
1
Results
Fig. 1 shows that the postulation of a universe radius of 45×109 light-years, correspond to
value of H0 = 232 km/s/Mpc which is not compatible with its observable value. The figure also
shows that the projection of observable recession velocity as a function of space-time could be
plotted as a straight line. A time-projection of value of H0 in excess of 71 km/s/Mpc shows as an
open curve and a lower one as a close curve.

time. For present time 4.34×1017s solving H0 × rr = vr

Discussion
The Einstein-De Sitter model (2) proposed an equation in which the relationship between
velocity and distance, for the present H0 could be express as H02 = 8/3 π G ρc, where critical
density ρc = 3 H02/[8/3 π G]= 1.879 h2 10-29 g/cm3. The formula allows a density relationship,
mass/volume, constant and inversely proportional to volume, which is increasing as the cubic
expression the expansion parameter.
Hence, in dependence of density determined by critical mass, the functional response of the
expansion parameter could be shown by analytical geometry, shaping like either an open, flat, or
close curve.
Conclusions
Fig. 1 shows that the expansion parameter, H 0 = dA(t ) / A assay as the chronology of the
H0 within the space-time coordinates corresponding to the thermodynamic chronology, also
shows a similar pattern. It could be concluded that the relationship between Planck’s mass and
the fundamental constants: mPl = Ñ1/2×c1/2× G-1/2, allows that from Planck’s energy limit to that of
present CMB, shapes the cosmic thermodynamic structure. This one relates space-time
parameters to c and also determines the CMB quantum radius, which settles on the shape of
vacuum. Therefore, recession velocity could not be larger or smaller, because is conditioned at
all times by c.

Abstract
Parametric down Conversion (PdC) and parametric up conversion (PupC) had been
experimentally observed as spontaneous energy conservation processes. The first one
could increase cosmic entropy by decreasing energy density. In a Casimir effect
experiment could be calculated that the space between plates contracts, because PupC
allows that from every two, low energy Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) photons
could be created one of higher energy. This decrease in photon number and increase in
photon energy density allow shrinking of the volume of CMB photon localization. This
effect reduces initial volume to 6.25% per each pair of integrated photons. This process
would be observable as a decrease of the space separating the parallel plates.
CMB is subject to gravity, but its elongation by PdC is not (2). Accordingly, PdC
present splitting CMB rate was evaluated as equivalent to that of the Hubble’s constant
(H0). PdC continuously generates new photons, the summa of their radius could be
assumed to reach a length of about to 70 km per Mpc per second. This value, because the
photons emerge uniformly into space, would add as the summa of the number of parsecs
that separates two galaxies. Accordingly, multiplying the PdC equivalent to H0 70 km/sec
by a distance of about 4300 Mpc, the inter-galactic velocity of recession would approach
that of the propagation of light in vacuum. However, the photon themselves are only
expanding to expand CMB intergalactic vacuum.
Introduction
CMB packets with a mean wavelength (λ) of 5.27 x 10-1 cm, at the presently
detectable density of 411 photons per cm3 yielding a total cosmic photon number (nγ)
equal to 3.78 x 1087 photons (1). The present volume of the universe (UV) corresponds to
the cosmic (nγ) multiplied by the volume of λ-localization (Vλc-loc). This one, by analogy,
calculated according to the Compton wavelength (λc) from the equivalence between an
electron and its wavelength volume [Vλc-loc= 4/3 x π x λc3]. Hence, the CMB even at its
present low energy level of 2.35 x 10-4 eV, may be, therefore, dimensioning the cosmos
2
with the radius 13.7 x 109 light years. Accordingly, it could be assumed that the
description of vacuum as identical to empty space is far from accurate (2).
Fig. 1: The decrease, by Parametric Down Conversion (PDC), of the energy density (log Eγ: MeV) and
corresponding increment of the Compton reactive radius (log λc: cm) per CMB photon, as a function of the
increment of Cosmic time (log Time(s)).
Figure 1 shows a correlation between the elongation curve for CMB calculated as
a Compton radius (λc) and the photon decrease in energy (Eγ). The present volume of the
universe (VU) corresponds to the cosmic number of photons (nγ) multiplied by the
volume of λ-localization (Vλc-loc). The latter, calculated according to the Compton
wavelength (λc) measured by experimental collision interaction between an electron and a
photon: Vλc-loc = 4/3× π× λc3.
The ubiquitous presence of CMB may allow that its possible physical interactions
within a boundary system formed by proximal conducting parallel plates could have
incidence in the results measuring the Casimir Effect. Experiments were usually carried
on using other plates than those made with material transparent to CMB (3) (4), preventing
equilibriums between CMB in the inside with that outside the plates, confining those
within the inside. These non-transparent plates would allow an initial condition of
equilibrium of photons CMB pressure which may not be sustainable, because if the plates
are conductive could withdraw from the inside the initially confined CMB packets. This
effect would decrease the nγ enclosed and therefore the summa of their Vλc-loc would
occupy a smaller space allowing the plates to show mutual attraction.

Parametric up
conversion
3
CMB detectable concentration of 411 photons per cm
Photon overlapping within a confinement space by parametric up
conversion would allow two photons integrating to create one
of shorter wavelenght. This decrease in photon
number and increase in photon energy density allows shrinking
of the volume of photon localization. This process would be
observable as an attraction between parallel plates.
Some of the geometries utilized to measure the Casimir effect had been reported
to result in a repulsive force (4). Laboratory experiments show wavelength elongation (5).
The later also occurs as a parametric down conversion (6) in which a photon could split
into two, each one with half the initial energy and each duplicating initial wavelength.
Thus, increase nγ and wavelength of CMB expanding into a greater volume of
localization. Consequently, the increase volume may appear to result from a repulsive
effect.
Einstein’s description unifying space, time and energy as a continuum implies that
without energy, the space continuum will be absent or collapse (9).
Conclusions
PupC allows two photons of the CMB, of low energy and large Compton volume
locus, to become integrated into one of higher energy, but shorter wavelength and smaller
by 93.75% locus. PupC, the interaction of two photons to generate one, is not kinetically
favored over its opposite direction, PdC.
PdC, from of the Era of last dispersion to the present, produces an increment in
CMB-photon number from 3.44×1084 to 3.78×1087. Total energy during spontaneous up
or down reactions is conserved, but PdC increases entropy by decreasing energy density,
as a function of increasing cosmic vacuum volume.
Any energy emerging from vacuum could be expected to contribute with its
volume of localization to an increase of volume within the Casimir plates decreasing
attractive effects. Emerging of dark energy into ordinary space, if a possibility, may have
similar effect. However, energy transfer from ordinary to virtual space would allow a
decrease of the enclosed volume, but this could not be conceptualized as energy emerging
from vacuum.

Abstract
The proposal evaluates the feasibility to develop radioisotope reactors for generation of
luminescence. The engineering could be achieved by using the energy of beta (β) and gamma (γ)
particle emissions by non-fissionable radioisotopes, to excite scintillation crystals.
This manufacturing approach could minimize the possibility of harmful radiation leaks,
allowing the use of rather small quantities of radioisotopes, without having to resort to a heavy
lead shielding. This opens the door for many applications, for example to cover the energy needs
of a house or building. Safety operating conditions should be implemented: for example, by
resorting to keep the chip in a metal box connected by optical fibers, to deliver the light or electric
energy, to the places where the energy-using appliances would be located.
Additionally, this model could be use for the planning and developing of larger airplanes,
with reduced fueling needs. Similarly, by decreasing the use of fuels in many applications could
prevent considerable CO2 contamination. The generation of cheap artificial light, not only could
improve food production but increasing photosynthesis would also decrease CO2. These chips also
appear to offer considerable advantage, as a suitable energy source for nanotechnology.

Introduction
The designs of nuclear reactors involve large amounts of radioactive materials which require
heavy lead shielding. Light-weight radioisotopes could be used as sustainable, long lasting-sources
of energy, which do not involve like the heavy radioisotopes, the danger of generating a chain
reaction. Lightweight nuclear sources are presently in use, to generate by heat-transfer electrical
power.
The scientific background (1)(2)(3) is well established, and the paper only intents to convey the
techno feasibility and the relative advantage of its adoption. The improvement of using the
scintillation methodology is not only that transfer of light does not require mechanical devices, but
also decreases shielding needs, if the scintillation substance is used as a covering shield of the
radioisotopes.

Empirical assay
To prevent radiation leak, an empirical assay can be done; by encasing a core radioisotope
fiber into scintillation crystals shaped as cylindrical tubes of progressive larger and larger
diameters, until radiation of the core is no longer registered by a Geiger detector. Table 3, allows
calculating the remaining energy of any leaking counts, which would be very much decreased by
their partial absorption. Direct assay of any energy left-over, in the remaining counts, could be
done by the simple methodology of interpolation pages of paper, between the source and the
Geiger detector.

The period of half-disintegration allows to express that the fraction of the initial nucleus
remaining after n periods is (t ½n). Therefore, after 7 periods of half life, the quantity of the
remaining radioactive material is less than 1%.

Sr and 90Sr are well-known hazards, because replace the physiological function of calcium
in the body. Therefore, protection to contamination in addition to radiation is essential, the
radioisotope would be sealed in a glass constituted by the scintillating crystal itself or when needed
an additional cover of unbreakable glass.
Table 3: Reaching distance of β and γ: The energy of beta decreases by exciting atoms, ionizing
molecules and electron slowing-down (bremsstrahlung) which may generate x-rays. The effect of
x-rays or γ is to transfer energy to electrons with photoelectric effects ionizing molecules and
Compton interaction. If a given scintillation thickness, does not eliminate totally the energy of the
particles, but for example retains from 1 MeV only 0.01 MeV, the remaining effects would
correspond to this in the table to the lower energy level.

When an energetic particle or a photon (radiation) goes across a scintillation crystal like NaI
(molecular weight, mw=150), some of the atoms along the trajectory become excited and
thereafter return to their ground state with emission of light.
Each scintillation molecule subtracts from the kinetic energy of the colliding β-particle or
excitation by the γ-radiation, an average of 30 to 50 electron volts (eV), as the excitation energy
required for the emission of one photon.
For both β -particles from 90Sr38 decay: 2.8 MeV divided by about, i.e., 40eV (transfer energy
during each collision) = 7×104 photons per β -particle trajectory, requires an equivalent number of
atoms in the scintillation crystal. Half-life: 0.5mol= 3.01×1023disintegrations/29 yrs (28.8 yrs)=
1.05×1022/1yr =1.05×1022/ 3.1536×107s =3.32×1014 disintegrations/s. Hence, multiplied by 7×104
photons yield the number of photons 2.331×1019 emitted/s/mol 90Sr38.

Assuming collision efficiency of 1 β particle per 4,000 of scintillation molecules during particle
trajectory, the relationship would be: 2.3×1019 photon emitted×4,000 (correction for collision
efficiency) = 9.2×1022 n° of required scintillation NaI atoms. Molar ratio of required atoms of NaI:
9.2×1022 /6.02×1023=15.3% (molar ratio NaI/90Sr38: 150/90=1.66) =25.4% for 90g =23g of NaI
will deprive from its kinetic energy and trap the β -particles emitted by 90g of 90Sr38.

Assuming collision efficiency of 1 β particle per 500 of scintillation molecules during particle
trajectory, the relationship would be: 3.66×1021 photon emitted×500 (correction for collision
efficiency) = 1.83×1024 n° of required scintillation NaI atoms. Molar ratio of required atoms of
NaI: 1.83×1024 /6.02×1023=303% (molar ratio NaI/89Sr38: 150/90=1.66) =503% for 89g =450g of
NaI. Disposal: after 7 × 50.55 d = 354 days remains only 1% of radioactivity

efficiency: 650Wh. An additional 300g would be required to complete the battery device. This one
could compete with Lithium batteries, which are presently in use to operate the electrical motor of
model airplanes (table 4). Its advantage the operative fly-time exceeds one month without need to
replace the scintillation battery.

Photosynthesis
Figure 1 illustrates a possible design for a long lasting light-emitting lamp. This technology
does not require cabling, and could be useful for regions far away from electrical power lines
and/or which have not access to trained electrical engineers.
Adding scintillation and fluorescent substances together to melted glass or any convenient
translucent material, will allow manufacturing artificial crystals of different efficiency and with
light emission of different wavelengths. This, allow to obtain an emission spectra, similar to the
one generated by day-light florescent tubes, presently used for plant growing.
For its general use, the lamp has the inconvenience that it cannot be turned off. However, it
could be devised a sliding mechanism for the radioactive fiber, that would allow its shifting from a
scintillation-translucent container tube to a metal (lead) container tube.

scintillation mixture showing Beta Decay, with atomic disintegration and emitting β particles. b) Being
introduced into a translucent cylinder made of additional layers of scintillation substances, like sodium
iodine (NaI), after excited molecules return to ground state emit scintillation light and glows like a lamp.
The photon emission during the collision of the beta particle would provide a light source for
hydroponics, plant, photosynthetic bacteria, and algae growth, etc.
Plants have two reaction centers for light interaction which are called photo system I (P700)
and photo system II (P680). Excitation of the first center generates a strong reducing agent to
transfers electrons to NADP. Excitation of the second results in a strong oxidant that from water
releases oxygen. Photo system II injects electrons in the chain connecting both systems.
Figure 2: Illustrates the z-scheme. A photon converts both chlorophyll complexes (P680 and P700) into
powerful reducing agents P680* and P700*. Also shows that input of water interacts with Mn into release
of ½ O2 and protons (H+) pumped into thylakoid lumen and transfer of hydrogen and electrons (e–) to
reduce NADP from oxidized to NADPH + H+, the later turnover to oxidized is obtained by transfer of its
reducing power in the dark reactions which allows CO2 fixation (Calvin Cycle).
7
Figure 2 shows that excitation of photo systems I and II requires illumination with light from
several wave-lengths, development of scintillation mixtures will allow light emission on the range
required to cover the full action spectra.
All these systems could be made totally independent of other forms of energy than the
radioisotopes themselves, which on the other hand, can substitute for solar panels, which could
usually operate for only the 8 hours of sun light (19). On the other hand if a plantation is divided
into 3 lot areas angling 120o each, their artificial light exposition could be triplicates by a rotating a
scintillation panel mounted on a pivot to cover each area for 8 hs. Light generated by this
technology, could be used to drive photosynthesis to obtain sustainable ecosystems (4-17).
Ecosystem solutions
One of the uses of light-transfer technology may be the replacement of solar panels which
could be expected to have a very low efficiency in Polar Regions, by the use of radioisotope lamps
manufactured in the shape of panels which could allow the development of agriculture in very cold
regions or at least to support the light requirements of greenhouses in Polar Bases.
Integrative techno-concept
Fig. 3: Scintillation coupled to voltage control Electric power is supplied by radioisotope operated
batteries connected to this voltage amplifier. The figure shows that β-decay particles interact with the
scintillation crystal, resulting in photon emission reflected by surrounding mirror. In direct contact with the
scintillation crystal is represented the photoelectric cathode of a photomultiplier which releases electrons
when stricken by photons. The electrons are accelerated to the first anode, arriving with energy of two
hundred electron volts (V), releasing secondary electrons from its surface. Subsequent repetition of this
process results in an output of electrical current.
8
Tandem photovoltaic elements could be use to increase efficiency, if the energy of β particles
could be more efficiently capture, by a mixture of scintillation substance generating light of more
than one wavelength. The design could be improve by using the energy generated from
radioisotopes to generate electric energy in excess, of that to be supplied to the voltage control.
Additionally, research could be extended to find cascade systems which will allow the
summation of quantum steps of scintillation, and/or phosphorescent, and/or fluorescent substances.
This may allow obtaining summation of the energy of photons of longer wavelength into emission
of more energetic photons, or obtaining systems of greater energy efficiency.
More advanced chips could be develop by incorporating boron nitride crystals (hBN) highly
resistant to heat with emission of a λ = 215 nm (nanometers) at room temperature (19), UV
radiation may be suitable in vacuum to propel solar sails. The design task would be to transfer
energy along optical fiber to stimulate laser devices.
One additional example could be that production of light by these lamps may allow
generation of electricity from hydrogen gas, or enhance its propulsion power by producing two
dissociation pathways, of opposite parity which entangle and lead to correlations in the directions
followed by the resulting proton, electron and atom (20).
Heat dissipation
These and subsequent electrical power figures had not been corrected for heat-losses
decreasing efficiency. The latter should be determined experimentally. Losses by dissipation of
energy as heat through a cooling system could be connected to a heat system for maintenance of
the environmental temperature within spatial exploratory vehicles.
The material selected to contain the radioisotopes could be given different shapes to facilitate
heat-dissipation. It is suggested to manufacture long fibers to be cut accordingly to its end use. For
small sizes, heat exchange with surrounding air will provide enough refrigeration. For such a
purpose radioactive fibers could be bended and pleated and/or turned around over itself taking care
of leaving enough distance in order to allow an easier air-cooling effect.
For a larger radioisotope core, the refrigeration could be achieved by spinning the radioactive
fiber around a circulation tube of an attached cooling system. If to match a large radioisotope core
requires a large core-enclosing scintillation shielding, this could be made of superimposed crystals
leaving between themselves enough space to form air-circulation channels. If the size of the
system reaches the need to require a liquid cooling system, this could be installed in such a way
that one of the sides has reflecting capability allowing both cooling and focusing of the emitted
light.
Engineering solutions will be able to adequate the geometry of radioactive and scintillation
crystals to allow for sufficient heat dissipation according to different operative requirements. In the
vacuum of space, rather than cooling it may be required to radiate heat into the chambers
containing instruments.

Technology adaptable for interplanetary and deep-space exploration
Space exploration and colonization of other worlds requires long-lasting energy supplies
(21)(22)(23)
. However, for space agencies purposes, the half life of 90Sr38 operated photovoltaic
battery may be adequate, but its power may be insufficient, and the opposite may be true for 89Sr38.
Hence, it may be more suitable in pursue of space-exploration 60Co27.
NASA has initiated exploration outside the Solar System using probes which fall into a path
of circumvallation of the sun, to confer these spacecrafts the gravitational energy needed to escape
the solar system. The thrust thus obtained, allows speeds of the order of tens of thousands of
kilometers per hour and would take to these space probes many millenniums in reaching other
suns.
For interplanetary navigation, the use of solar sails is under development, as planed
aluminum screens would be push by the sun’s photons. This type of navigation allows constant
acceleration, with a theoretical limit of a fraction of the speed of light. However, if the spacecraft
would be moving away from the sun, the number of photons incident on the sail, would diminish
until becoming null.
As a result solar propulsion cannot be use to navigate between two solar systems. The
considerable dimension of a thermonuclear plant would require solar sails with the sizes of many
square kilometers. The solution is to replace the thermonuclear plant by a luminescence-nuclear
one, in which the energy of non fissionable radioisotopes like strontium-90 would be transformed
by scintillation crystals on light flashing directly on the sails.
The engineering of this system could be expected to result in considerable smaller sails,
allowing much smaller development costs by using toy-sized prototypes.
Scintillation lamps in deep space could provide radiation pressure to compensate for the one
diminishing from the Sun. If required, two spacecrafts could cross-direct their own laser ray to
provide impulse to the other craft’s sail, as a solution to requirement of an outside source of power.
Planetary exploratory vehicles may take advantage of atomic reactors of reduced size and
weight, which are suitable to be used as batteries with an operative life-spam close to the half-life
of a radioisotope. Example: One kg of 60Co27 plus the weight of the energy generating crystals may
weight less than 5kg, providing almost 27 kWh / h decreasing to half after 5 yrs.
If a photovoltaic battery based in 60Co27 is coupled to an electric motor its lasting operational
life and power could be favorably compared to a robot vehicle (about 45kg.), operated by remote
control with energy derived from a lithium battery, whose full operative life is only of several
hours.
A life support system consisting of a small plant for electrolytic decomposition of water, can
be operated by these batteries since about 5Kwh could produce 1m3 of hydrogen and a ½ m3 of
10
oxygen per hour. A system like this could also save weight by converting waste water into an
oxygen supply and hydrogen that can be use as a propulsive fuel.
Life-support systems
These are usually based in the use of oxygen tubes and alkaline fixation of CO2, add
excessive weight and have limited life-spam and therefore are not too adequate for long voyages or
in supporting human colonies in the Moon or planets. The preceding systems could be replaced by
electrolysis generating oxygen or photosynthesis that will produce a renewable atmosphere which
will not only restore the level of oxygen but also, concomitantly decrease the level of CO2. These
objectives could also be achieved by the use of Solar Panels, although their size is much greater
than the a scintillation lamp, still, these could be easily adapted to provide light for photosynthesis,
but become increasingly inefficient when further away from the Sun.
Conclusions
For many radioisotopes shielding by scintillation molecules within the crystal itself could be
sufficient to trap most of the β-radiation or γ-radiation covered by a crystal of enough thickness,
resulting in negligible radiation leak.
Shielding by scintillation glasses should be considered as an innovative replacement to shielding
by lead. Uninterrupted glowing could be an advantage if saving in light expenses is desirable.
Comparative safety
Nuclear reactors could also be used as a source of energy for electrical lamps, but their size
and cost may limit their use. Moreover, a spaceship that would be required to travel to planet Mars
for a round trip of about 3 year or more may expose the crew to unhealthy and unacceptable levels
of radiation unless the atomic reactor is heavily shielded. The long lasting scintillation lamp will
add much less weight; because these could be designed to adjust to any scale, moreover the
scintillation crystal provides a lighter and more efficient shielding.
Comparative cost
The characteristic previously described allows that a small scintillation nuclear plant could be
made significantly cheaper that one similar size heat-transfer atomic reactors and could be easily
designed to meet safety and health requirements. The needs of a human colony outside earth will
certainly include a nuclear reactor but its operation will yield radioactive waste products, which
could be utilized as previously described.
The world expanding energy needs indicates that is required to engineer ways and means for
extensive use of radioisotopes. These could make a significant contribution by adding a
supplementary energy source and also by alleviating the difficult problem of radioactive disposal.
Expansion of this technology may require studying systems that will allow efficient light
transmission through optical fiber-power lines. The development of Photon confinement systems is
required to allow storage of electromagnetic radiation to fill the role of capacitors.

Abstract
Introduction
A cell cAMP pathway and related metabolic interactions (Fig. A), allows to
postulate, that in the brain, adenylate cyclase activity by constituting the formative
pathways for emotional neuronal circuits, modulates emotional perception and emotional
memory. These, are subject to brain control through adrenaline and nor adrenaline levels.
1
Fig. A: Illustration of a cell cAMP pathway. Illustrate that modulating neurons, unloads
the nor-adrenaline neurotransmitter, in its synapses with a neuron and how beta-blockers presence (an
administered drug), prevents the nor-adrenaline physiologic agent to fulfill its function. Activation of nor-
adrenaline receptor associated to adenylate-cyclase, results in transformation of the substrate MgATP, into
cyclic AMP, which regulates biochemical pathways.
Results

Graphic 1: Nor-adrenaline effect on the activation of adenylate-cyclase of
cerebral corpus striatum. Basal (without addition) + adrenaline (+0.1 mM-noradrenaline) and +
adrenaline + calcium (+ 0.1 mM-noradrenaline and 0.3 mM- CaCl2). It’s been determinate the cAMP
(cyclic AMP) formed and it is expressed by activity units (nmol of cAMP formed by hour/gr of proteins in
the particle preparation of the membrane).
3
Graphics 1 and 2 show increment of cyclic AMP production as a response to
adenylate-cyclase activation by nor-adrenaline, and a decrease of cyclic AMP by
inhibition of the enzyme by the calcium addition.
Graphic 3 show that the enzymatic activity has a notably decrease during the pre
incubation period with nor-adrenaline
Thus, it could be infer that the enzyme pre-incubated with nor-adrenaline for a
long period of time (2: 0,5 mM Nor-adrenaline), acquires a more unstable configuration,
because the adrenaline-enzyme complex, it’s more sensitive to the inactivating effect of
the incubation temperature (1), than the configuration of enzyme alone (1: Buffer/control)
4
enzyme by formation of the substrate MgATP-enzyme complex, show that the enzyme
MgATP protection against the inactivity effect of the nor-adrenaline.
On the other hand, it also shows that, if the enzyme had been pre-incubated with
buffer alone or buffer plus Mg (5: 5 mM MgSO4), the enzyme keeps considerable
activity.
Beta-blockers are used to protect the vascular system from the effects of
adrenalines. An additional therapeutic effect may surge from protecting people from the
emotional impact associated with formation of harmful memories.
There is a short term memory, an intermediate memory and a long term memory.
The beta-blocker, if given before formation of long term memory, could diminish the
intensity of the association between perception of the event and traumatic bodily
response, like tachycardia, etc. Therefore, allowing an scenario turning emotional
memory, into a factual memory.

Discussion
Fig. B: Cyclic AMP modulator effects. Inside the pre-synapse neuron, cyclic AMP, the
second messenger, activates protein kinase, which uses ATP, to produce phosphorylated proteins and/or
enzymes, which change from inactive to active or vise verse. These conform a neuronal pathway leading to
changes on a neuron, which could condition its answer to subsequent stimulus, and therefore, they conform
ways to memory formation.
These studies, agree on that, in the memory affirmation, there are two different
phases: the cell mechanism, that establish the changes fixation in the force of neuronal
connection previously described; and those who reorganize and restructures the circuits
that recuperate and store memories (3)(4)(5).
6
Then, the noradrenaline activated way (1) and the mediated by acetylcholine way
(3) (4)
, are differentiable systems of memory, functionally separated, but integrated for
conscious memory capability (2). Thus, the emotional way configures the possibility of
acquiring skills, habits, affects and aversions, etc. (2) (3) (4) (5). The spinal-brain barrier
separates blood from cerebral spinal fluid. The locus cereleus is rich in neurons uploading
nor-adrenaline at the synapse, and it’s been related with conducts disorders, like panic,
avoidance, etc.
The emotional pathway, in the reaction of stress, stimulates the adrenal glandule
to produce adrenaline in blood, activating the adenylate cyclase in tissues like fat tissue,
heart, etc. The adenylate cyclase of fat tissue (EC 4.6.1.1; ATP pyrophosphate-lyase
(cyclizing)), responds to the adrenaline stimuli in function of metabolite-modulated
interactions between active centers for substrate Mg-ATP complex, to produce cAMP
(cyclic AMP). The regulatory controls of the enzymatic activity, and its answer to
adrenaline, its exerted by free Mg2+ vs. free ATP4-, since their equilibrium allows
modulator effects in a receptor site for Mg2+, acting like a sensor of energetic
availability.
An excess of ionic Mg2+, results from a low level of the chelating metabolites
which are intermediates of glucolysis. Saturation by free Mg2+, of the regulatory site
magnifies the affinity of the enzyme for the stress hormones.
7
Mg2+. The latter relationship would be present in over-fed animals, and would decrease
the response to stress, a possible explanation of over-eating as a defense mechanism to
emotional stress. On the other hand, tendency to sub-alimentation would lead to nervous
anorexia.
Conclusions
As demonstrated noradrenaline action in the test tube, is not only to activate the
enzyme, but also destroy it because of its prolonged action, it could be proposed as the
molecular mechanism of the physiological responses. This would be equivalent to a
molecular connection between mind and body, or in other words, the place for
psychosomatic effects, as mind producing over exposition to noradrenaline of the enzyme
molecules, part of the soma or body.
This would be the base for psychosomatic illnesses (1) (7), and corresponds to the
observed model of psychosomatics illnesses progress, which shows at first, a hipper
functionability followed by a hippo functionability.
Molecular level studies are concordant with those at the organism level, since
they demonstrate that, if adrenaline is blocked by propranolol, it has a psychotherapeutic
activity. The effects of Beta-Blockers can be explained at molecular level, because by
antagonizing the union between noradrenaline and enzyme associated receptor, the active
center of the latter becomes blocked. In this way, beta-blockers lessen emotional
consequences dependent on adrenaline, during traumatic experiences. In the absence of
blockers, the stress effects prolong the adrenaline action even further than its activator
function, since overtime has an inactivating effect on the adenylate cyclase enzyme. This
overexposure, would causes dysfunctions in capabilities like thinking, planning,
judgment and memory (2)(3)(4). Consequently, beta-blockers administration would be
efficient by its preventive action, rather than showing curative action (5).
