What if the universe is spinning a tale we’ve yet to fully understand? Buryl Payne’s spin force hypothesis whirls us into a realm where physics, healing, and consciousness collide, potentially rewriting the very laws of nature.

The concept of spin force as a potential fifth fundamental force of nature has intrigued physicists and researchers for decades. Among those who have explored this idea is Buryl Payne, a physicist and psychologist known for his work investigating the properties of spin and its possible role as an additional force beyond the four known fundamental forces. Payne and collaborators such as Wilber B. Smith have proposed the integration of spin into our understanding of gravity and other physical phenomena, which could potentially lead to the identification of a “fifth force” in nature.

This article will explore the key ideas behind spin force theory, the experimental evidence supporting it, its potential implications for physics and other fields, and the various hypotheses and concepts that have emerged from this line of inquiry. Despite being a subject of conflicting interests in mainstream physics, the study of spin force provides a fascinating opportunity for scholars to investigate the underlying essence of reality and question established paradigms.

Understanding Spin Force

At its core, the concept of spin force proposes that the intrinsic angular momentum or “spin” of subatomic particles may play a more significant role in physical interactions than previously thought. In quantum mechanics, spin is a fundamental property of particles like electrons, protons and neutrons. It is distinct from classical angular momentum and is a purely quantum phenomenon with no classical analogue. 

Buryl Payne, a physicist and psychologist, has been at the forefront of exploring spin force as a candidate for a fifth force of physics. Payne postulates that spin is not merely a superficial byproduct of matter, but a fundamental force in its own right. He asserts the existence of spin around the human body, its easy measurement, and its non-magnetic nature, despite its amplitude and direction changes during geomagnetic storms. Interestingly, Payne notes that solar activity and lunar conjunctions with nearby planets reduce this force.

Payne and others have suggested that spin properties could influence gravitational interactions and other physical phenomena in ways not fully accounted for by current theories. The idea has some historical precedent – mathematician Élie Cartan proposed in the early 20th century that spacetime could possess torsion related to spin. More recent work has continued to explore potential spin-dependent effects that may reveal new physics beyond Einstein’s general relativity.

Key aspects of spin force theory include:

• The proposal that spin generates a field or force distinct from the known electromagnetic, gravitational, strong nuclear and weak nuclear forces.
• The idea that this spin force may be non-magnetic in nature, operating independently of traditional magnetic interactions.
• The suggestion that spin force could be affected by or responsive to celestial events and alignments.
• The hypothesis that spin force may be prevalent across various scales, from subatomic particles to macroscopic objects and even celestial bodies.

Payne’s work aimed to bridge quantum mechanics and general relativity by proposing experiments to test the influence of spin on gravitational and other interactions. The exploration of spin as a potential fifth force represents an attempt to uncover new fundamental principles in physics.

Experimental Evidence and Observations

Proponents of spin force theory have cited several lines of experimental evidence and observation as potentially supporting the concept.

Biofield Meter Measurements: In 1978, Burl Payne reported using a device he called a “Biofield Meter” to measure aspects of the human biofield that he hypothesized could be indicative of spin force effects. The Biofield Meter is a simple device constructed of wooden rods and ring magnets in a pyramid shape design. Payne observed that the Biofield Meter spins clockwise when a person sits under it.

Through his experiments, Payne documented three key aspects of the spin force:

1. The magnitude and direction of the force varied with solar/geomagnetic activity.
2. The spin force is weaker when a person is ill, tired, or calm.
3. The spin force usually changes direction for a few hours during the New and Full moons.

Astronomical Evidence: Some researchers have pointed to astronomical observations as potentially supporting the existence of spin force:

• Radio wave polarization patterns in distant galaxies that may indicate spin-related interactions. According to Science News, two astronomers discovered that radio waves polarized by 160 distant galaxies are larger in one direction than any other, arguing that this implies the presence of rotational (spin) force around an axis.
• Rotation anomalies in galaxies that are difficult to fully explain with current gravitational theories. Many galaxies rotate in spiral formation, and many stars rotate faster than expected in the outer portions of galaxies, contradicting the law of conservation of angular momentum. Einstein added his “Cosmological Constant” to his equations to account for this apparent anomaly, but Payne postulates that the faster rotation of stars in the outer portions of galaxies is evidence of the spin force.
• Observations of the Crab Nebula by the Hubble Space Telescope revealing complex interactions that could involve spin forces. An article in Astronomy presented data suggesting a massive pulsar at the center of the Crab Nebula, rotating 30 times per second and radiating as much energy as a hundred thousand suns. This rotation creates a solar wind that puzzles astronomers, but Payne believes spin force can explain this observation.
• Planetary and asteroid rotation patterns exhibiting consistencies that may point to underlying spin-related forces. Payne observes that the majority of outer planets in our solar system rotate around our sun at a faster speed than the planets closest to it, and scientists have discovered an orbiting moon on approximately one out of every eight asteroids.

Scientists have cited changes in Earth’s rotation during periods of solar and geomagnetic activity as potential evidence of spin force effects. In Science News, Payne cites a scientific finding that the Earth’s inner core spins faster than the planet. Recent studies on variations in Earth’s inner core rotation may also be relevant. 

Payne has observed that sunspot activity occurred more intensively when two or more planets aligned with the Sun. He also noted that the Sun appears to rotate 0.5% faster during periods of less sunspot activity. These observations suggest that sunspots or flares change the angular momentum of the Sun, which Payne believes could be evidence of spin force at work.

Quantum-Level Observations: We have observed various spin-related phenomena at the quantum scale, which may align with concepts of spin forces:

• The behavior of subatomic particles and their spin properties
• Spin characteristics of atomic nuclei
• Quantum entanglement effects involving correlated spin states

Gyroscope Experiments: Japanese engineers have conducted experiments on gyroscopes to investigate potential spin-related gravitational effects. These studies suggest that forces beyond our current understanding may influence gyroscopic motion. Two Japanese engineers found a change in weight of a gyroscope spinning in the vertical axis, with one direction of spin showing a weight decrease, although the other direction did not show a weight increase.

Spinning Wheel Observations: Australian researcher Thom Watson found a change of weight in a free spinning wheel in one direction but not the other, suggesting potential spin force effects.

Nuclear Spin Alignment Work: In the 1970s, Henry William Wallace conducted experiments on nuclear spin alignment, developing apparatus to generate and detect what he termed a “gravitomagnetic field” through the alignment of nuclear spins in rapidly spinning materials. Wallace achieved gravitational effects by aligning the protons’ nuclear spins.

Historical Discoveries: Throughout history, others have independently discovered evidence of a spin force. In 1922, the British journal Lancet published an article on spin’s biological force. In the 1970s, German scientist Walter Peschka discovered spin force. George Edgley discovered spin force and designed the Edgley Wheel, a pocket device to detect it. Dr. Bjoorn Vlistigk asserted that he had harnessed the human body’s spin force to generate useful power.

While many of these observations and experiments remain unspoken in mainstream physics, they represent attempts to gather empirical data potentially supporting spin force concepts. We would need further rigorous study and replication to substantiate any of these findings.
