About This Blog:  "The Bivortex Theory of Everything"
I am an amateur theoretician in geophysics, astrophysics, and particle physics.  Since 2004 I have delved into the history of science, acquiring  insights into gravity, electromagnetism, and atomic theory. Somehow I stumbled upon my own grand unified theory, my own "theory of everything."  I named it the "Apple Bivortex Theory of Everything" because the apples in my kitchen resembled the bivortex of my theory. I later deleted the "apple," out of respect for Isaac Newton's apple. Please note that I have conducted no experiments, other than "thought experiments."                                                                                                                                                                         --George William Kelly

     I suggest that an earth-circling "Fiery Magma Belt" plays a large role in the numerous earthquakes and volcanic eruptions of the Eurasia-Australia half of the Pacific Ocean's seismic "Ring of Fire." But it does not directly affect the North-and-South-America half of the "Ring of Fire." 

     This "Fiery Magma Belt" overlaps the "Ring of Fire" along the Eurasia-Australia rim of the West Pacific, but the two are separate phenomena. While both are circular, the "Ring of Fire" has a smaller diameter than the "Fiery Magma Belt." The other half of the "Ring of Fire" follows the Pacific shore of North America and South America. The other half of the "Fiery Magma Belt" follows the Mid-Atlantic Ridge that runs along the floor of the North Atlantic and South Atlantic Oceans. 

     The two halves of the "Ring of Fire" connect along the Aleutian Islands (where the North America tectonic plate meets the Eurasia tectonic plate) and again at the Antarctic plate. The two halves of the "Fiery Magma Belt" connect along underwater seamount ridges of the Arctic Ocean, and along sub-glacial mountain ranges across the Antarctic plate. 

     The "Ring of Fire" has long been attributed to tectonic plate subduction, where one plate dives deep below another plate. At sufficient depth the subducted plate melts and becomes molten magma.  This hot magma then erupts in the form of volcanoes. Earthquakes occur when plates, undergoing subduction, slip or slide against each other.

     Earth science maps often use red dots to picture the earthquakes and volcanic eruptions of the "Ring of Fire." The red dots follow the Pacific shore of North and South America, continue past Alaska, and then follow the Eurasia and Australia tectonic plates all the way to the Antarctic. They create a circle around the Pacific Ocean. There are many more red dots on the Eurasia-Australia half of the "Ring of Fire" than on the Americas half. The dots indicate greater seismic activity on the West Pacific half than on the East Pacific half of the ring. (See such a map at the following link:  www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/tectonics/quakemapbw.gif )

     Although I am an amateur and not a scientist, I have come to the conclusion that plate subduction is not the only cause of the red dots along the Eurasia-Australia half of the "Ring of Fire." My conclusion is that the Eurasia-Australia portion of the "Ring of Fire" is adjacent to, or coincident with, a different kind of "ring," a "Fiery Magma Belt" that emits magma from deep inside the Earth. 

     I propose that this West Pacific "Fiery Magma Belt" is just one half of a crust-creating magma circle that stretches around the circumference  of the globe.  It is an extension of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge that marine geologists have shown to run along the mid-ocean floor for the length of the North and South Atlantic Oceans. This Mid-Atlantic ridge continuously emits magma and spreads apart the ocean crust. In geologic time it has rifted the two  Americas apart from Africa and Europe. 

     The Mid-Atlantic magma belt continues past the North and South Poles and along the Pacific Ocean rims of the Eurasian and Australian tectonic plates. However, the West Pacific section of the crust-creating magma belt does not emerge as a ridge in the middle of an ocean floor. It emerges from beneath the rims of the two contiguous tectonic plates, Eurasia and Australia. It constitutes one-half of the “Fiery Magma Belt." The Mid-Atlantic Ridge constitutes the other half of the "Fiery Magma Belt." 

     Some earth scientists have previously reported plume-like, deep-mantle upwellings along the Eurasia-Australia rim--for example in the East China Sea west of Kyushu. As far as I know, however, no one has previously suggested that these deep-mantle upwellings connect with the Mid-Atlantic Ridge to form a continuous magma-emitting belt around the globe.  It is my belief that these upwellings do indeed indicate the West Pacific portion of the  "Fiery Magma Belt" that continues around the earth as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. 

     The magma belt on the floor of the North and South Atlantic Oceans becomes apparent at the surface only when it opens a rift through Iceland.  In the West Pacific, however, the emerging magma belt pushes island nations away from the rifting tectonic plates, leaving behind the Sea of Okhotsk, Sea of Japan, Yellow Sea, South China Sea, Celebes Sea, Flores Sea, Banda Sea, Arafura Sea, Coral Sea, and Tasman Sea. 

     Why does the “Fiery Magma Belt” have a north-south orientation? 

     The Earth is a spinning bivortex body with a quadrupole gravito-electro-magnetic field. In this quadrupole field, particles flow in at the North and South Poles, out at the Equator, then in again at the two poles. Relatively few particles escape this continuous quadrupolar recirculation, which approximates gravity.

       The core of the bivortex Earth is extremely hot and dense. It spins very fast. Early in the Earth’s history, the Outer-Earth and the Earth-Core spun together on the same axis. Molten magma flowed outward from the Earth-Core's Equator and emerged along the overlying Outer-Earth’s Equator. It cooled in greater concentration along the Outer-Earth’s equatorial surface and formed a thicker crust there. This thicker crust eventually formed a single continent straddling the Outer-Earth’s Equator. The continent was bordered by a north ocean and a south ocean.   

     Then the Earth-Core began to wobble and tilt. Eventually it tumbled 360 degrees inside the non-tilting Outer-Earth. The axis and equator of the Earth-Core tilted progressively in relation to the Outer-Earth's Axis/Equator, causing magma from the Earth-Core’s Equator to emerge at progressively greater north/south angles to the Outer-Earth’s Equator. The directional change in magma outflow resulted in the rifting of the original single Equatorial continent and the growth of separate continents (and oceans) in north/south directions. [If the Outer Earth was the one that tumbled, instead of the Earth's Core, the result presumably would have been the same.]

     The Earth-Core may have tumbled more than once. At present, the two poles of the Earth-Core’s axis appear to be located at the “moving hot spots” of Hawaii and perhaps the Comoros Islands (or the island of Reunion). The Earth-Core’s equatorial plane provides the pathway followed by the ‘Fiery Magma Belt’ through the mid-Atlantic, across the Poles, and along the Pacific edge of the Eurasia-Australia plates. The two poles of the tumbling Earth-Core emit jet-like plasma plumes that create "moving hot spot" island/seamount chains, such as the Emperor-Hawaii chain. These hot spot chains align approximately perpendicular to the "Fiery Magma Belt."                     

     Looking at a world map of earthquake epicenters over a decade, I am struck by a seeming correlation between the contour of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the Eurasia-Hawaii plate rim. They seem to fit together: reminiscent of Alfred Wegener's correlation between the coasts of Africa/Europe and the coasts of South America/North America. 
 
     (I emphasize that I have no scientific proof that such a “Fiery Magma Belt” extends around the globe and functions as I have theorized. However, I hope scientists may take a look at the idea.)
