Comment on Wa-Tor: An Ecosimulation by ~DovSherman[top] [parent]

The only tangible difference as far as I know (aside from the annihilation and polarity where applicable) I think would be the spin. If I am not mistaken, when an electron and anti-electron (positron) are released, the electron spirals clockwise while the positron spirals counter-clockwise. At least that is a picture I once saw where each particle's paths were traced.

It is quite possible that anti-matter is time reversed, but I am not sure this would not be acheived by going over the speed of light. I would think that if one were to reach a velocity of infinity on a spaceship, one would reach their destination at the same point in time which one reaches the infinite velocity. Thus, everything leading up to this velocity of infinity must cause a shorter amount of time to pass from the perspective of the ship, while from the perspective of the planet the amount of time elapses as though it were traveling at the speed of light. Maybe I am slightly confused, but if I am not mistaken one still ages when traveling at the speed of light, just much more slowly than usual.

Anyway, I was thinking of the implications of anti-matter being time reversed. Even though a particle and anti-particle annihilate each other, they cause a large amount of pure energy to be released. It is also true that in order to form a new particle and anti-particle a large amount of energy must be focused in a small area and this then translates to a particle forming along with its anti-particle. Anyway, the implication I was thinking was that this points in some manner to the existence fate. If a particle and anti-particle combination were created before quickly colliding and annihilating and the anti-particle has a different time orientation, then it could be said that the annihilation of the particle was the formation of the anti-particle while formation of the particle was the annihilation of the anti-particle.

Fate comes into play in that before when the particle was created, a certain level of energy had to be acheived, perhaps even the same level of energy that was caused by the particle/anti-particle annihilation. If the anti-particle is time-reversed than it forms from the annihilation of the particle (which also causes a large burst of energy) and is annihilated at formation of the particle. But if the energy used to create the particle and anti-particle was the same as the energy released from their annihilation, then the annihilation could have been said to have caused the burst of energy while the energy causing their formations had essentially already happened because it was a result of annihilation and the accumulation of energy in that single point was a reversal of the process of the energy dispersing.

The theory of matter and a hole left in the vacuum doesn't violate conservation of energy (matter is an organized form of energy). In order for the particle and anti-particle to form there must be a large amount of energy focused in a single area which causes a particle to essentially pop out of the vacuum (possibly the smaller, simpler (theoretical if not hypothetical) particles which would then give rise to more complex particles as an electron) and leave behind a hole which is the anti-particle. The rise of the particle and anti-particle therefore are the transfer of energy from a raw form (gamma rays to be precise) to a much more organized and usable form. It is possible the anti-particle has a reversed time orientation although from our perspective this would not be noticeable unless we were observing a structure larger than a particle.
