Standard physics leaves open a number of questions about the propagation of the effect of static force fields emanating from moving charges or masses. These open questions will be discussed here.
It is believed that the speed of propagation of the said effect is somewhere between the speed of light and infinity. The problem with this, however, is the assumption that the moving field source is constantly contributing something to the presence of the field. This assumption is at odds with the energy content of the force field. To contribute to something that contains energy, energy is required. However, such an expenditure of energy would deplete any field source over time, and should therefore be ruled out.
Thus, the only possibility is that the fieldmoves with the unaccelerated source in its inertial frame. For the propagation of the effect of the field, this means that there is no delay. However, this does not mean that the effect propagates from the field source to the site of the effect at an infinite speed. No, it simply means that the effect of the field is always already there, and that the unaccelerated field source does not exert any impact.
However, what happens to the static field when the field source is accelerated? Physics has a concrete answer to this question in the context of boundary value problems.
The aperiodic part of the solution ensures that the static field is adapted to the changed motion of the field source. This adaptation is now propagating at the speed of light.
The resulting answer to the initial question is thus:
Since static force fields have an energy density, accelerated field sources adapt their force fields to their changed velocity in an aperiodic process.
We can now further conclude that this adaptation is actually the compelling reason for the radiation emitted by accelerated force field sources. In addition, we can assume that the adaptation of the force field to any change in velocity is always accompanied by an increase in the energy density in the force field.
What this means for the negative value of energy density in gravitational fields is also an important aspect of the discussion. Suffice it to say that, in my opinion, this proves irrevocably that force fields with an absolutely negative energy density cannot be adjusted from their source to a changed velocity.
This therefore proves that there must be a cosmic energy density that compensates for the negative energy density in gravitational fields. An accelerated mass then acts on the cosmic energy density with its aperiodic contribution and increases its energy content accordingly, which then no longer leads to a contradiction.
Now enough discussion material has accumulated and we should now exchange views on the mentioned connections in an open-ended manner.
