Did LIGO Really Detect Gravitational Waves?—The Existence of Electromagnetic Interaction Made the Experiments of LIGO Invalid

Abstract

The paper proves that due to the existence of electromagnetic interaction, the experiments of LIGO cannot detect gravitational waves. This is also the reason why Weber's experiments of gravitational waves failed. In fact, the formulas of general relativity that gravitational waves affect distances are only suitable for particles in vacuum. LIGO experiments are carried out on the earth. The laser interferometers are fixed on the steel pipes on the earth's surface in the balanced state of electromagnetic force. Electromagnetic force is 10 40 times greater than gravity. Gravitational waves are too weak to overcome electromagnetic force and change the length of steel pipes. Without considering this factor, the design principle of LIGO experiment has serious problem. The experiments to detect gravitational waves should move to space to avoid the influence of electromagnetic interaction. Besides, LIGO experiments have the following problems. 1) No explosion source of gravitational waves is really founded. 2) The argument that the Einstein's theory of gravity is verified is a vicious circle and invalid in logic. 3) The results of experiments cause sharp contradiction for the energy currents of gravitational waves. The difference reaches to 1024 times and is unacceptable. 4) The method of numerical relativity causes great errors due to the existence of singularities. The errors are enlarged by the effect of butterfly due to the non-linearity of Einstein's equation of gravity. 5) The so-called change of length 10 −18 m between two glasses of interferometers detected in the experiment exceeds the ability of current technique. This kind of precise has entered micro-scalar. The uncertain principle of quantum mechanics makes it impossible. The signs appeared in LIGO experiments are not caused by distance change. 6) LIGO experiments have not detected gravitational waves. What detected may be the signs of disturbances coming from the middle region between two laser interferometers.

LIGO Experiments Cannot Detect Gravitational Waves by Using Laser Michelson Interferometers—Light’s Wavelength and Speed Change Simultaneously When Gravitational Waves Exist Which Make the Detections of Gravitational Waves Impossible for LIGO Experiments

“…In addition, in Reference [5], X. Mei and P. Yu pointed out that no source of gravitational wave burst was found in LIGO experiments. The so-called detections of gravitational waves were only a kind of computer simulation and image matching.…”

Was LIGO’s Gravitational Wave Detection a False Alarm?

“…In this section we present only a summary of theoretical evidence that LIGO's system cannot detect gravitational waves. More detailed information can be found in articles [4] and [5].…”

“…For these authors, the LIGO system operated more than a decade without obtaining any results due to some theoretical and practical problems in the basis of this experiment. Detailed information about these problems can be found in articles [4] and [5], presented in summarized form in Section 2 of this article.…”
