Force Fields as Photon Pressure

At the end of my post about generation and transmission of electricity, I made a rather convoluted description of what we would normally describe as over-pressure and under-pressure. The better description would be as follows:

When two objects attract each other through a field, low energy photons vacate the space between the objects, thereby creating under-pressure. When two objects repel each other through a field, low energy photons get trapped between the objects, thereby producing over-pressure.

To illustrate this, imagine two magnets facing each other in a repelling manner. As we push the two magnets toward each other, we experience an increasing repelling force. This is due to low energy photons getting trapped in between the magnets. The closer we bring the magnets, the more likely it is that photons inside the field, stay in the field.

Photon pressure producing a repelling force

A field is a coordinated structure of photons. This means that they do not bounce around completely random. In the case of repelling force fields, the chance of a direct return from a random collision between photons is bigger than the chance of it happening with no field.

In the case of an attracting force field, the chance of a direct return from a random collision between photons is smaller than the chance of this happening with no field.

When two magnets face each other in an attracting way, low energy photons vacate the space between them. The closer we bring the magnets, the more likely it is that photons inside the field, vacate the field.

Photons producing an attracting force by vacating the field

The pressure that we experience between two magnets oriented in a repelling manner, is due to over-pressure of photons. The attracting force that we experience between two magnets oriented in an attracting manner, is due to under-pressure of photons.
