The Mirage of Time Throughout Modern Phsyics: Scandalous Life of an Impostor

That bound electrons, entire atoms and molecules want nothing to do with time as a physical variable had been a traumatizing lesson taught to us by E. Schrodinger’s Quantum Mechanics since its inception in early 20th Century. In the same period, A. Einstein undertook to deflate the notion of time as well in his Relativity analysis of astrophysical dynamics by showing the dependency of the physical variable on motion, mass and gravitation. He was so driven to the conclusion that time had to dilate in order to remain workable and a useful concept in cosmological physics. The most important underlying obstacles that these destabilizing visions of physical time had to counter all along had been the very appealing practicality and self-evidence that the notion instills in the conscious experience of both the educated minds and that of the common man. For that reason the notion of time has never died in physics despite the increasing sentiment amongst physicists that there is indeed a very serious problem with this notion. Many today are willing to concede that time is not “fundamental” in reacting to such experiments as quantum entanglement of particles and atoms, and the implications of such experiments alike. Yet the visualization of a macroscopic world completely bereft of time-driven phenomenology has not been successfully formulated if severally attempted. In this thesis, I aim to review the concept of time and time flow from a philosophical standpoint, as well as their application in physics from Newtonian Physics to Relativity. I propose and substantiate the view that emerges from Quanto-Geometric analysis, which is that the notion of time is vacuous and unnecessary for a comprehensive description of Nature, in favor of a space perspective.
