What Is the Zero-Point Energy?

Quantum theory predicts that there is a huge background energy in the vacuum, which still exists under the condition of absolute zero, which is called vacuum zero energy. Accurate measurements of Casimir force (a force due to vacuum zero-point electromagnetic fluctuations) confirm this physical phenomenon.

Modern scientists think

The idea about zero energy comes from

The dynamic energy of this process can be used as energy in many fields such as industrial energy, future interstellar navigation energy, and family life. A quantum vacuum is a very active space. It is full of particles that appear and disappear and energy fields that rise and fall at the zero point. As early as 1891, scientist Nikola Tesla mentioned in a lecture: centuries later, maybe we can extract energy from any point in the universe to drive our machinery. Explained in today's scientific language, this energy is vacuum zero energy, or space energy, free energy, and so on.

The University of Washington Lamoreaux, with the assistance of his student Dev Sen, performed an accurate measurement of the Casimir effect, which was no more than 5% of the force predicted by Casimir for this particular plate spacing and geometry. Lamoreaux used a gold-plated quartz surface as his metal plate in his experiments. The other plate is fixed at the end of a sensitive twisting pendulum. If the plate moves towards another plate, the pendulum will twist. A laser can measure the twist of a torsion pendulum with an accuracy of 0.01 m. A current applied to a group of piezoelectric components moves the Casimir plate; another electronic feedback system counteracts this movement and keeps the torsional pendulum stationary. The zero-point energy effect appears as a change in the amount of current required to maintain the position of the pendulum. Mohideen et al.'S experiments at the California Institute of Technology showed that the results of Casimir's force measured with an atomic force microscope in the range of 0.1 to 0.9 m were less than 1% from the theoretical value.

If zero energy can be extracted, it will undoubtedly be the best energy that human beings can use. It is clean, cheap energy, and is a "free lunch" that nature gives humans. All matter in the universe comes from the zero-point electromagnetic fluctuation energy, and every matter in our body

To prove

Scientists from all over the world have gathered in the UK to study the possibility of using "zero point to propel the spacecraft engine. Once successful, human beings will be able to come and go freely in space, without the need to consume any fuel, and flying for hundreds of years will be no problem. As of now, the zero-point energy has only obtained preliminary verification: in the experiment, two pieces of metal were combined by the power of the zero-point energy and slightly heated. Although this is not the same as the power to propel the spacecraft
