The key to the formulation involves retaining Newton’s first law of motion in the local spacetime of freely falling frames. The formulation shows that the relative\u0000 acceleration of two particles in the freely falling frame does not depend directly on their relative velocity. Also, the 4 × 4 matrix relating the relative acceleration of two particles to their relative spacetime displacement closely resembles the physics of Newtonian\u0000 gravity, implying that the local gravitational field obeys Laplace’s equation. The results of this paper and a previous publication [L. R. Miller, Phys.

This definition leads to different simultaneities across inertial frames and the well-known principle of relativity of simultaneity. The lack of a universal present implies the existence of past, present, and future as a collection of events on a four-dimensional manifold or continuum wherein three dimensions are space like and one dimension is time like. However, such a continuum precludes the possibility of evolution of future from the present as all events exist “forever” so to speak on the continuum with the tenses past, present, and future merely being perceptions of different inertial frames. Such a far-reaching ontological concept, created by a mere convention, is yet to gain full acceptance. In this paper, we present arguments in favor of an absolute present, which means simultaneous events are simultaneous in all inertial frames, and subscribe to evolution of future from the present.","PeriodicalId":51274,"journal":{"name":"Physics Essays","volume":"122 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135082747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Essays 32 , 422 (2019)]. The objective of this article is to present a model of the photon within the framework of the DMR theory. A concept of elementary wave on the subatomic level is introduced. An elementary wave is always identical to itself while being constantly renewed by new gravitons (entities that make up the medium of propagation of the wave). This elementary wave propagates in its medium (DMR) at the speed of light whatever its trajectory. A possible model of the elementary wave called light-vortex is presented in Appendix B. Then the concept of line of vortices is introduced. The vortices constituting a line all have their axis parallel to each other and perpendicular to the direction of propagation are separated by half a wavelength and rotate alternately in one direction and the other. The model of the proposed photon is then a set of lines of vortices parallel to each other (the number of lines of vortices as well as the length of the photon are constants whatever the frequency of the photon.) This model makes it possible to attribute to the photon, the speed c , a frequency ν , a period T = 1/ ν , a wavelength λ = c / ν , the energy E = hν , the momentum p = E / c = h · ν / c , and even a polarization (rectilinear, circular, or elliptical). It allows above all to explain that the photon has at the same time a wave aspect (because composed only of elementary waves) and a corpuscular aspect (since the elementary waves remain identical to themselves and the photon remains delimited by the same volume). It also explains the phenomenon of diffraction by emitting photons, even one by one, through a slit and that of interferences by emitting photons, even one by one, through two Young’s slits.","PeriodicalId":51274,"journal":{"name":"Physics Essays","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135131594","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

J. Wilson based on the original Dirac equation (DE). The models presented hereafter go beyond the depiction of the electron as a structureless nondimensional point like charge with momentum and position determined by a probabilistic interpretation of the wavefunction described in terms of an electronic density cloud. These models share features in common that provide useful insights concerning the nature of the electron; for instance, they all consider zitterbewegung , a light speed “trembling-along-the-way” electron motion, to be a real oscillatory motion of the electron. The last model presented in this review is the electron mass model from Val Baker et al . [Phys. Essays 32 , 255 (2019)], where the electron mass is defined in terms of a holographic surface-to-volume ratio Φ and the relationship of the electric charge at the Planck scale to that at the electron scale, obtaining a value in agreement with the latest CODATA value. We discuss the relationship between these models. The large number of correspondences between the models should not be taken lightly and indicate, in our view, that something very fundamental about the nature of the electron is being put forward by this study.","PeriodicalId":51274,"journal":{"name":"Physics Essays","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135342978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The introduction of dark fields into Einstein field equations is made possible by establishing field equations for the Ricci curvature tensor, which have similar mathematical structure to Maxwell field equations of electromagnetism. We also establish a system of field equations for the Riemann curvature tensor and investigate the possibility to represent physical systems consisting of dark fields and observable fields as spaces of constant scalar curvature, which are maximally symmetric spaces that admit the maximal number of Killing vectors. As an illustration, we show that if a dark field is considered as a dark fluid, then the pressure associated with the dark field can take negative values if the cosmological constant is assigned with positive values.","PeriodicalId":51274,"journal":{"name":"Physics Essays","volume":"111 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135260175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This results in counterintuitive conclusions, including time dilation, object length contraction (i.e., Lorentz contraction), and mass increase at relativistic speeds as well as the unification of mass and energy. Although the STR has been empirically confirmed, the ultimate cause of special relativity as well as the reason for the invariance of c and its actual value (2.99 × 10 8 m/s) remain unknown. We have recently postulated that a hypothetical displacement of the three-dimensional (3D) space where we live throughout a fourth spatial dimension, which would be the basis for time, is a requirement for the gravitational effects contemplated by the general theory of relativity. This tetra-dimensional model of the universe explains that the actual value of <mml:math display=\"inline\"> <mml:mi>c</mml:mi> </mml:math> equals the speed at which our 3D space displaces along the fourth dimension. It also explains time dilation, Lorentz contraction, Lorentz transformation, and mass increase at relativistic speeds, as well as the unification of mass and energy, as epiphenomena derived from the projection of the fourth dimension to our 3D space.
