Briefly stated and applied to cosmological models is a theory of gravity in flat space-time. These models begin with a gravitational field that is equally distributed yet devoid of substance. The whole energy of matter and gravity is preserved when gravitational energy is transformed to matter. There is no...

This work builds a model to test the notion that the incompatibility of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics is due to the various space-time geometries on which each theory is based. An abstract field is envisioned as a mechanism to integrate Quantum Mechanics with General Relativity by transforming coordinate...

As an international student in Kerala, India, one of the projects I worked on as part of my research mandate was to begin an exhaustive survey of Kerala museums. This project was inspired by a noticeable gap in the documentation of Kerala’s museums. A survey study project that took...

I was inspired to write this article after reading a book by Prof. Geraint Lewis and Dr. Luke Barnes about how to undo astronomy’s Big Bang. Since attending several astrophysics courses at Australian National University a year before, I’d had a strong urge to do this (they were conducted...

It is well known that classical electrodynamics, quantum electrodynamics (QED) and Quantum Field Theory (QFT) are based on the wave theory of Maxwell and his equations, but it is much less well understood that they are not based on his initial understanding of the relationship between the fields of...

A numerical equivalence can be used to associate the fundamental constants of physics. This equivalence leads to a unitless transformation that reduces the number of fundamental constants and provides a clear link between E&M, gravity and quantum mechanics. This paper introduces a unitless transformation that allows the possibility of...

In the middle ages, especially in astronomy and mechanics, the construction of the theory of movement of the solar planet system was a triumph of science. The confrontation that lasted for centuries between proponents of the Ptolemaic geocentric system and the heliocentric system of Aristarchus-Copernicus ended with the victory...

For many years physicists have been engaged on research around the globe in fields such as an explanation for dark matter and dark energy, or the unification of gravitation and electromagnetism, etc., but so far to little avail. One is left with the impression that something might be fundamentally...

It is shown in Einstein gravity that the cosmological constant Λ introduces a graviton mass mg into the theory, a result that will be derived from the Regge-Wheeler-Zerilli problem for a particle falling onto a Kottler-Schwarzschild mass with Λ≠ 0. The value of mg is precisely the Spin-2 gauge...

The Standard Model of Cosmology (SMC) offers no physically reasoned explanation for the expansion of cosmic space in accordance with Hubble’s Law. As will be illustrated in the course of this paper, an explanation for this special expansionary behaviour of the cosmos can be derived using Planck’s Law for...
