The possible relation of the wave nature of particles to gravitation as an emergent phenomenon is addressed. Hypothetical particles are considered as spatially confined oscillations (SCOs) and are constructed through the superposition of plane waves. The effect of a continuously changing refractive index (speed of propagation field) on SCOs is calculated and the continuous Ibn-Sahl--Snell law of refraction is derived. Refracted plane wave constituents of SCOs in an inhomogeneous medium cause the oscillation as a whole to accelerate as an entity. This acceleration is described by a geodesic equation, in much the same way as in general relativity. The proper time of an SCO can be defined via its oscillation frequency. The proper time and its change along the trajectory are equivalent to a particle in general relativity as described by the 0th component of its geodesic equation. An SCO in an inhomogeneous refractive index field exhibits general relativistic properties based on basic wave mechanics. Properties derived from direct calculations are length contraction, gravitational red- and blueshift and Thomas precession. The presented theory is an approximation for oscillations which are small compared to changes in the refractive index field. SCOs in an inhomogeneous medium may thus yield a naturally emerging particle-field interaction with general relativistic properties and may allow a useful vantage point on the nature of gravitation using classical-wave experiments.

Neutrino oscillations occur within the frame of the Standard Model, assuming that a neutrino is composed of a left handed and a right handed mass less fermion. Neutrino oscillations proceed via the 4-component Higgs field as intermediate state.
Direct conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) to high-energy fuels and high-value chemicals is a fascinating sustainable strategy. For most of the current electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction, however, multi-carbon products are inhibited by large overpoten
tials and low selectivity. For practical applications, there remains a big gap of knowledge in proper manipulation of the C-C coupling process. Herein, we exploit dispersed 3d transition metal dimers as spatially confined dual reaction centers for selective reduction of CO2 to liquid fuels. Various nitrogenated holey carbon monolayers are shown to be promising templates to stabilize these metal dimers and dictate their electronic structures, allowing precise control of the catalytic activity and product selectivity. By comprehensive first-principles calculations, we screen the suitable transition metal dimers that universally have high activity for ethanol (C2H5OH). Furthermore, remarkable selectivity for C2H5OH against other C1 and C2 products is found for Fe2 dimer anchored on C2N monolayer. The correlation between the activity and d band center of the supported metal dimer as well as the role of electronic coupling between the metal dimer and the carbon substrates are thoroughly elucidated.
A thought experiment is considered on observation of instantaneous collapse of an extended wave packet. According to relativity of simultaneity, such a collapse being instantaneous in some reference frame must be a lasting process in other frames. Bu
t according to quantum mechanics, collapse is instantaneous in any frame. Mathematical structure of quantum mechanics eliminates any contradictions between these two apparently conflicting statements. Here the invariance of quantum-mechanical collapse is shown to follow directly from the Born postulate, without any use of mathematical properties of quantum operators. The consistency of quantum mechanics with Relativity is also shown for instant disentanglement of a composite system.
When a beam of light is laterally confined, its field distribution can exhibit points where the local magnetic and electric field vectors spin in a plane containing the propagation direction of the electromagnetic wave. The phenomenon indicates the p
resence of a non-zero transverse spin density. Here, we experimentally investigate this transverse spin density of both magnetic and electric fields, occurring in highly-confined structured fields of light. Our scheme relies on the utilization of a high-refractive-index nano-particle as local field probe, exhibiting magnetic and electric dipole resonances in the visible spectral range. Because of the directional emission of dipole moments which spin around an axis parallel to a nearby dielectric interface, such a probe particle is capable of locally sensing the magnetic and electric transverse spin density of a tightly focused beam impinging under normal incidence with respect to said interface. We exploit the achieved experimental results to emphasize the difference between magnetic and electric transverse spin densities.
The present paper is based upon the fact that if an object is part of a highly stable oscillating system, it is possible to obtain an extremely precise measure for its mass in terms of the energy trapped in this resonance. The subject is timely since
there is great interest in Metrology on the establishment of a new electronic standard for the kilogram. Our contribution to such effort includes both the proposal of an alternative definition for mass in terms of energy, as well as the description of a realistic experimental system in which this definition might actually be applied. The setup consists of an oscillating type-II superconducting loop (the SEO system) subjected to the gravity and magnetic fields. The system is shown to be able to reach a dynamic equilibrium by trapping energy up to the point it levitates against the surrounding magnetic and gravitational fields, behaving as an extremely high-Q spring-load system. The proposed energy-mass equation applied to the electromechanical oscillating system eventually produces a new experimental relation between mass and standardized constants.
