Unified Energy-Mass-Frequency Equation:

Mᵉᶠᶠ⋅c² = h⋅f = E

This equation bridges extended classical mechanics and quantum theory, presenting a cohesive framework to describe the energy-mass-frequency relationship. It establishes the equivalence of a photon’s relativistic energy, its effective mass-energy, and its quantum electromagnetic energy.

1. Effective Mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ) in Photon Dynamics

From extended classical mechanics, the effective mass Mᵉᶠᶠ plays a central role in the dynamics of massless particles, including photons. It is defined as:

Mᵉᶠᶠ = Mɢ = Mᴍ −Mᵃᵖᵖ

Where:

• Mᴍ is the matter mass, representing intrinsic mass, which is zero for photons.

• Mᵃᵖᵖ is the negative apparent mass, reflecting the photon's energy in gravitational interactions (Mᵃᵖᵖ = −Mᵉᶠᶠ).

• Mɢ represents gravitational mass, equivalent to Mᵉᶠᶠ in this framework.

The force equation encapsulates this relationship:

Fₚₕₒₜₒₙ = Mᵉᶠᶠ·aᵉᶠᶠ 

This underscores that the photon's behaviour in gravitational fields is dictated by its energy-driven effective mass Mᵉᶠᶠ, not rest mass.

2. The Term Mᵉᶠᶠ⋅c²:

This term represents the effective mass-energy of a photon in extended classical mechanics. While photons lack rest mass (M₀=0), their effective mass Mᵉᶠᶠ emerges from their intrinsic energy (E):

Mᵉᶠᶠ = E/c² = (h⋅f)/c²

By incorporating Mᵉᶠᶠ into the energy equation, we establish that the photon's energy (E) governs mass-like behaviour in gravitational interactions, enabling the photon to exchange momentum and energy dynamically.

3. Quantum Energy: E=h⋅f

This represents the photon's quantum electromagnetic energy, where h is Planck's constant, and f is the frequency.

• It highlights the quantum nature of photons, carrying discrete energy quanta proportional to their frequency.

• In gravitational interactions, the frequency f changes (redshift/blueshift), impacting the energy and effective mass of the photon.

4. Relativistic Energy: 

E=Mᵉᶠᶠ⋅c² 

This term extends Einstein's equation (E=mc²) to photons by substituting the effective mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ) for rest mass.

• Even without rest mass, photons possess energy equivalent to a mass-like quantity due to their motion and frequency, emphasizing the role of effective mass in photon dynamics.

5. Unified Representation

The equation Mᵉᶠᶠ⋅c² = h⋅f = E provides a unified perspective:

• It integrates quantum mechanics (h⋅f) with relativistic energy principles (Mᵉᶠᶠ⋅c²).

• It connects the effective mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ) with electromagnetic frequency (h⋅f), demonstrating the equivalence of relativistic and electromagnetic energy (E).

This unified representation aligns classical mechanics with quantum principles, emphasizing the photon’s dual nature as both a quantum particle and a relativistic entity.

6. Significance in Photon Dynamics

• Energy-Mass Interplay:

The inclusion of Mᵉᶠᶠ emphasizes its pivotal role in gravitational interactions. Despite photons lacking rest mass, their effective mass enables them to interact gravitationally.

• Observable Phenomena:

Gravitational lensing, redshift, and energy exchanges are explained through momentum transfer facilitated by Mᵉᶠᶠ. 

• Force Dynamics:

The force equation Fₚₕₒₜₒₙ = Mᵉᶠᶠ·aᵉᶠᶠ represents the negative force generated by the photon’s total energy, which includes both its gravitational interaction energy (Eg) and its intrinsic energy (E). This negative force is responsible for:

Escape from the Gravitational Well: 

Facilitating the photon’s ability to escape the gravitational pull of the source well by expending energy associated with its gravitational interaction (Eg).

Maintenance of Constant Speed (c): 

Sustaining the photon’s constant speed by utilizing the negative force generated from its inherent energy (E), which is not expended unless there is cosmic recession.

By expressing E as both Mᵉᶠᶠ and h⋅f, this framework integrates the principles of classical mechanics and quantum mechanics, providing a unified model for photon behaviour in gravitational fields. Rather than relying on geometric spacetime curvature, this approach introduces quantifiable energy-mass-frequency relationships, advancing the understanding of photon dynamics.

In the framework of extended classical mechanics, the force equation is expressed as:

F = Mᵉᶠᶠ·aᵉᶠᶠ 

where Mᵉᶠᶠ represents the effective mass and aᵉᶠᶠ is the effective acceleration. The term Mᵉᶠᶠ encapsulates the combined contributions of the gravitational mass Mɢ, matter mass Mᴍ, and the negative apparent mass Mᵃᵖᵖ:

Mᵉᶠᶠ = Mɢ = Mᴍ −Mᵃᵖᵖ

Key Components of Mᵉᶠᶠ:

1. Matter Mass (Mᴍ):

The intrinsic mass of the particle or system derived from its rest energy and other inherent properties. For photons, this is zero (Mᴍ=0), emphasizing the absence of rest mass.

2. Negative Apparent Mass (Mᵃᵖᵖ):

A novel concept introduced in this framework, representing the effect of the photon's energy in gravitational interactions. For photons, Mᵃᵖᵖ is directly proportional to their energy, defined as:

Mᵃᵖᵖ = −Mᵉᶠᶠ

3. Gravitational Mass (Mɢ):

In this extended theory, gravitational mass is redefined to include the interplay between matter mass and negative apparent mass, making it an equivalent term for effective mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ).

Role of Mᵉᶠᶠ in the Force Equation:

The force F arises from the interaction between the effective mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ) and the effective acceleration (aᵉᶠᶠ) experienced by a particle or photon in a gravitational and anti-gravitational fields.

For photons, Mᴍ=0, and the effective mass is entirely attributed to the interplay of energy and gravitational potential through Mᵃᵖᵖ. This highlights the unique dynamics of massless particles like photons under gravitational influences.

Abstract:

This research bridges classical mechanics and quantum theory to explore the dynamics of photons within gravitational fields, emphasizing the roles of effective and negative apparent mass. We propose an extended classical mechanics framework that integrates the photon's energy, frequency, and effective mass to explain its interaction with gravitational forces. A key component of this framework is the concept of negative apparent mass (−Mᵃᵖᵖ), which influences the photon's trajectory and energy dynamics, particularly in strong gravitational wells. The negative force resulting from this negative mass enables photons to escape gravitational fields without decelerating, maintaining their constant speed of light, c. This analysis provides a new perspective on gravitational redshift, lensing, and energy conservation in gravitational systems, offering insights into how energy-momentum exchange drives photon behaviour. Furthermore, we draw an analogy between the photon’s negative effective mass and dark energy, suggesting a unified principle of energy-momentum interaction that applies both locally and universally. The study unifies classical mechanics and quantum theory, highlighting a dynamic interplay that has profound implications for our understanding of photon dynamics and broader cosmological phenomena.

Introduction

The study of photon dynamics within gravitational fields lies at the intersection of classical mechanics and quantum theory, offering profound insights into the nature of energy, mass, and gravitational interactions. Photons, though devoid of rest mass, exhibit behaviour in gravitational fields that challenges traditional frameworks. These interactions reveal key insights into intrinsic properties such as effective mass and negative apparent mass, providing a deeper understanding of phenomena like gravitational redshift, lensing, and energy conservation. Furthermore, these studies open pathways to addressing broader cosmological questions, including dark energy and the accelerated expansion of the universe.

In classical mechanics, force is governed by the interaction of mass and acceleration, while quantum theory describes photons via their energy and momentum. Reconciling these perspectives requires an extended framework of classical mechanics that accommodates the unique dynamics of photons. Central to this extension is the concept of effective mass (Mᵉᶠᶠ), directly linked to the photon’s energy through Mᵉᶠᶠ = E/c² = h⋅f/c². In parallel, the introduction of negative apparent mass (Mᵃᵖᵖ) elucidates photon motion under gravitational influence, highlighting the interplay of energy and momentum without invoking the geometric constructs of spacetime curvature.

This framework is formalized through the force equation Fₚₕₒₜₒₙ =−Mᵃᵖᵖ⋅aᵉᶠᶠ, where the negative apparent mass generates a force opposing gravitational attraction. This dynamic ensures that photons escape gravitational wells while preserving their invariant speed c. It also provides a coherent explanation for instantaneous acceleration to c upon emission and the redistribution of energy through gravitational redshift during propagation.

A critical implication of this approach is its connection to dark energy, particularly the role of negative effective mass in driving universal expansion. By linking photon dynamics to cosmic phenomena, the framework suggests a unified principle governing both localized gravitational interactions and large-scale cosmological processes.

By extending classical mechanics to incorporate quantum principles, this research presents a cohesive framework that reconciles the quantum and macroscopic scales. It eliminates the necessity of spacetime curvature by directly attributing gravitational effects to the energy-momentum exchange between photons and gravitational fields. The implications of this approach are vast, spanning theoretical advancements in photon dynamics and practical applications in astrophysics and cosmology.

The sections that follow develop the mathematical underpinnings of these ideas, explore their physical interpretations, and connect them to broader cosmological phenomena, paving the way for a unified understanding of photon dynamics and their role in the universe.
