Space/Time is velocity (36)
Introduction In his book “A brief History of time” (Chapter 8, “The Origin and Fate of the Universe”) Stephen Hawking describes how in Euclidean Space-Time there is no difference between the directions of time and the directions of space. The … Continue reading
Gravitational waves in question (34)
Introduction. The dreaming up and realization of the LIG Observatory is a fantastic achievement, worthy of the Nobel Prize in Physics 2017. However, questions/problems such as the one about the true nature of gravity, the LIGO “strange noise” observation problem, … Continue reading
Gravity is a resultant and so are the strong, weak and electromagnetic interactions (33)
As suggested in post 6, Time, Space, Mass and Energy are properties of the world/decisive factors which shape the world endogenously, being generic and not independent, their proportions being fully interrelated, continuously changing each other’s proportions. As suggested in post … Continue reading
Beware of suggestive changes of information (32)
Introduction. In post 13 (March 2011) I have explained why I think that gravity is not an emergent phenomenon but a continuity, in contrast with Erik Verlinde’s idea of emergent gravity. n post 31 (September 2016) I have explained why … Continue reading
Missing mass/energy in the universe is not dark but light (31)
In addition to previous posts (15 and 18 in particular) I suggest the possibility that missing mass/energy in the universe is not dark but actually light and therefore in fact not missing at all. I’ll explain why there is no empty … Continue reading
Was the signal observed by LIGO really a gravitational wave or is there an alternative explanation? (30)
In previous posts I have explained why I think that gravitational waves do not exist and cannot come into existence. In short I have a combination of two arguments on which I base my conviction that the signal observed by LIGO … Continue reading
A closer look at the strong and weak forces as endogenous interactions (29)
As explained in posts 21, 23, 24 and 25, both gravitation and electromagnetic interaction are bound endogenously by C=T/M x E/S, a concept derived from Einstein’s E=MCC (see also posts 6, 13 and 14). Electromagnetic interaction An increase of the … Continue reading
Cosmological relativity (28)
In post 12 I have explained why the speed of light is not constant. In posts 9 and 15 I have explained why Einstein’s Equivalent Principle is out of date as he did not take account of the difference between … Continue reading
“Particles accelerate without a push” (MIT news, January 20, 2015). An explanation (27)
Particles accelerate without a push: this phenomenon is a perfect example of an endogenous process. I have laid the theoretical foundation for such a process in various earlier posts as will be explained below. First question: what is the essence … Continue reading
The wrong tracks of physics and string theories (26)
In his book “A Brief History of Time” Stephen Hawking describes how in Euclidean space-time there is no difference between the directions of time and the directions of space. The theoretical consequences of this concept imply that freedom of travel of … Continue reading
