I am interested in what current thoughts on wormholes by some physicist
are in this situation. Say an object at A went into a worm hole and came out at B. An observer at A would see an object disappear. Would he see the laws mass/energy and momentum are conserved? Now at B an observer would see an object suddenly appear. Would he see that the laws of mass/energy and momentum are conserved? Also would he see the laws of thermodynamics conserved. Any thoughts? -- These is always a page that we are looking for and there is always a note, that we have lost that we now really need now. Observations of Bernard - No 66 |

NOTE: I take GR as my theoretical context, using any of the various
"wormhole" manifolds. Bernardz wrote: Say an object at A went into a worm hole and came out at B. An observer at A would see an object disappear. No, it would not "disappear", it would continuously travel away from the observer into the wormhole. This is no different from the object traveling away from the observer but not through the wormhole (except for the details of the path). But yes, there can be a last instant at which the object is visible to the observer -- similar to turning a corner. Would he see the laws mass/energy and momentum are conserved? Sure. Remember, please, that in GR the conservation of energy and momentum is a LOCAL law, and applies at each and every point in the spacetime manifold. At every point along its trajectory, this traveling object will move such that energy and momentum are conserved (in the sense of GR). Now at B an observer would see an object suddenly appear. No, it would not "suddenly appear", it would continuously travel toward the observer coming out of the wormhole. This is no different from the object traveling toward the observer but not through the wormhole (except for the details of the path). But yes, there can be a first instant at which the object is visible to the observer -- similar to turning a corner. Would he see that the laws of mass/energy and momentum are conserved? Also would he see the laws of thermodynamics conserved. Yes to both. At each and every point in the spacetime manifold. [But the laws of thermodynamics are subtle in GR. I'm not familiar with the details.] Tom Roberts |

Bright green flying elephants use 'em to lay there eggs in.
