Moving Dimensions Theory is in complete agreement with all experimental
tests and phenomena associated with special and general relativity.
MDT is in complete agreement with all physical phenomena as predicted
by quantum mechanics and demonstrated in extensive experiments. The
genius and novelty of MDT is that it presents a common physical model
which shows that phenomena from both relativity and quantum mechanics
derive from the same fundamental physical reality.
Nowhere does String Theory nor Loop Quantum Gravity account for quantum
entanglement nor relativistic time dilation. MDT shows these derive
from the same underlying physical reality. Nowhere does ST nor LQG
account for wave-particle duality nor relativistic length contraction.
MDT shows these derive from the same underlying physical reality.
Nowhere does ST nor LQG account for the constant speed of light, nor
the independence of the speed of light on the velocity of the source,
nor entropy, nor time's arrow. MDT shows these derive from the same
underlying physical reality. Nowhere does String Theory nor Loop
Quantum Gravity resolve the paradox of Godel's Block Universe which
troubled Eisntein. MDT resolves this paradox.
Simply put, MDT replaces the contemporary none-theories with a physical
theory, complete with a simple postulate that unifies formerly
disparate phenomena within a simple context.
THE GENERAL POSTULATE
OF DYNAMIC DIMENSIONS THEORY
The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions.
If at first the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it.
-Albert Einstein
But after thirty years of the absurdity of String Theory, millions of
dollars from the NSF, and billions of complementary dollars from tax
and tuition and endowments spent on killing physics and indie
physicists, perhaps it's time for something that makes sense-for a
physical theory that actually accounts for a deeper reality from which
both Relativity and Quantum Mechanics, from which time, entanglement,
gravity, entropy, interference, the constant speed of light,
relativistic time dilation, length contraction, and the equivalence of
mass and energy emerge. It's time for Moving Dimensions
Theory-MDT.
-The Physicist with No Name
I know what you're thinking. Did he say there were thirty-six
dimensions or only thirty-five? Well to tell you the truth in all this
excitement I've kinda lost track myself. But being this is a .45
Revolver-the most powerful hand gun in the world and would blow your
head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question--Do I feel
lucky? Well, do ya punk!? -Clint Eastwood
I'm interested in the fact that the less secure a man is, the more
likely he is to have extreme prejudice. -Clint Eastwood
Go ahead. Make my day. -Clint Eastwood
THE CLASSIC POMO HIPSTER ENCOUNTER
BASED ON "A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS"
When a man with a .45 meets a man with a rifle, the man with a pistol
is a dead man. -Ramon from Sergio Leone's A Fistful of Dollars
I'll stick with my forty-fives. -The Man with No Name from A Fistful
of Dollars
The modern translation of this is:
"When a man with a Ph.D. in String Theory, backed by a possee of
pomo-hipster NSF-plundering string theorists meets a man armed with
logic and reason, the man armed with logic and reason is a dead man."
-String Theorist
"I'll stick with my logic and reason." -The Physicist with No
Name
"That a man can take pleasure in marching in formation to the strains
of a band is enough to make me despise him. He has only been given his
big brain by mistake; a backbone was all he needed. This plague-spot of
civilization ought to be abolished with all possible speed."
-Albert Einstein
THE SHOWDOWN
BASED ON "A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS"
When a man with .45 meets a man with a rifle, you said, the man with a
pistol's a dead man. Let's see if that's true. Go ahead, load up and
shoot. -The Man with No Name from A Fistful of Dollars
Sarah Belding: Be careful. You're a man who makes people afraid, and
that's dangerous.
The Stranger: It's what people know about themselves inside that makes
'em afraid.
-Clint Eastwood's High Plains Drifter
In High Plains Drifter, a mysterious gunfighter with no name rides into
town. He guns down three outlaws, and the cowardly town hires him to
help defend the town from three far more formidable outlaws. Not long
ago, as the town stood on and watched, these latter outlaws whipped to
death the town's former lawman-Marshal Jim Duncan-who lies in
grave with no name.
So it is that the tenured theorists and their hired hands in the form
of postdocs and grad students stood on and watched as physics, and the
physicist with no name, was whipped to death with papers titled,
"Frobenius transformation, mirror map and instanton numbers" and
"Fractional two-branes, toric orbifolds and the quantum McKay
correspondence." It was as if Dave Eggers had taken over the physics
department with his corporate fraud.
String theory is representative of what has been playing out in
numerous arenas-on Wall Street (Enron, Worldcom, pension-raiding), in
literature (Frey, rampant plagiarism, plotless, storyless hype), in
government (those who promise to cut taxes raise them). What it comes
down to is the destruction of truth, freedom, and the individual by
elite fools with ambitions overshadowing their talents. Want to be the
next Einstein or Shakespeare or Bill Gates? Sign up for our
pomo-hipster MBA/JD/Ph.D. program! The pomo academy must destroy
common sense in order to hawk their product.
Sergio Leone's genius, as represented in the "Man with No Name"
trilogy, made Clint Eastwood an international star. We love Leone and
Eastwood-indeed we love the Western-because it reminds us that so
often it is that truth and beauty are outnumbered, that the arrogance
of outlaws and mobs would tend to corrupt all institutions over time,
were it not for the lone, rugged individual with Law in his heart and a
..45 Revolver in his holster.
The three movies shot in Italy included "A Fistful of Dollars,"
"For a Few Dollars More," and "The Good, The Bad, and the
Ugly." And far, far more can be learned about human psychology and
sociology within Leone's and Eastwood's westerns than within the
psychology and sociology department. And if you wish to understand
modern (postmodern) physics, literature, finance, accounting, or
anything tainted by the sordid pomo philosophy, you've got to
undertand psychology and sociology. For the first rule of pomo
corruption is to replace truth, logic, reason, and the individual with
mob rule. So it is that the small minds-the supporting outlaws in
all the Westerns-band together in corrupt regimes.
So it is that Ed Witten, Brian Greene, Michio Kaku, Paul Davies, Lisa
Randall, and other esteemed String Theorists have had to hire an attack
dog-Lubos Motl. The tenured string Theorists never distance
themselves nor criticize Lubos-indeed they have vast financial
incentives to encourage and applaud his dervish, outlaw behavior:
Regarding the publication of his book, Not Even Wrong, Peter Woit
reports on his blog:
http://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/wordpress/
Update: Lubos has posted his usual slanderous review of the book on the
Amazon site, and then presumably logged in from many different places
to vote for his own review. Now it seems I get just one star instead of
the two I got in the UK, since it seems I have "abandoned any
integrity". As usual, he's very big on intellectual integrity. He
lists as the first "embarassing error" in the book the Gev instead
of Tev typo that was in the British edition, although he is well aware
that, thanks to him, the typo was fixed for the US edition, which is
the one he's reviewing. He's also paranoid and delusional, accusing
me of "using various tricks to erase all inconvenient reviews".
Update: Since Lubos's review of NEW on Amazon has been deleted, he is
now offering $20 to anyone who posts a one-star review of "the book
with the black satanic cover", and manages to get Amazon to leave it
there for at least two weeks. Yet another example of string
theorist's belief in the "market-place of ideas", I guess.
http://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/wordpress/
For this, Ed Witten and Brian Greene sign off on a vast raise for Lubos
who has never done and will never do any meaningful, lasting physics.
That is how embarrassing theoretical physics has become.
Esteemed physicist Peter Woit (author of Not Even Wrong) reviews
esteemed physicist's Lee Smolin's book (The Trouble with Physics)
on his blog:
What most fascinated me about Smolin's book is the personal story
behind it. He was a graduate student at Harvard during the same years
that I was an undergraduate there, and describes well that place and
time. The standard model had just been formulated a few years earlier,
and experimental confirmation was pouring in. Many of the people
responsible for the standard model were there at Harvard, and there was
more than a bit of justifiable pride and arrogance. Smolin was of a
philosophical bent, and initially put off:
The atmosphere was not philosophical; it was harsh and aggressive,
dominated by people who were brash, cocky, confident, and in some cases
insulting to people who disagreed with them.
http://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/wordpress/
Smolin gives many examples of the "groupthink" behavior of the
string theory community, while characterizing string theorists as
"almost all more open-minded and self-critical and less dogmatic than
they are en masse." He describes string theorists as:
..=2E. supremely confident both of the truth of string theory and of their
superiority over those unable or unwilling to do it. To many string
theorists, especially the young ones with no memory of physics before
their time, it is incomprehensible that a talented physicist, given the
chance, would choose to be anything but a string theorist.
..=2E.Anyone who hangs out with string theorists encounters this kind of
supreme confidence regularly. No matter what the problem under
discussion, the one option that never comes up (unless introduced by an
outsider) is that the theory might simply be wrong. If the discussion
veers to the fact that string theory predicts a landscape and hence
makes no predictions, some string theorists will rhapsodize about
changing the definition of science.
Some string theorists prefer to believe that string theory is too
arcane to be understood by human beings, rather than consider the
possibility that it might just be wrong.
http://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/wordpress/
What Woit doesn't elaborate on is just how cowardly the community
is. Every man gets to make a choice, and Smolin and Woit chose to
never criticize the vast NSF funding suspect theories receive.
Tragically, it appears Woit and Smolin have devoted a large segment of
their careers to tearing down that which wasn't even there in the
first place.
I know what you're thinking. Did he say there were thirty-six
dimensions or only five? Well to tell you the truth in all this
excitement I've kinda lost track myself. But being this is a .45

There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so
there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron.
It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of

INTRODUCTION
In this day and age of unprecedented hype, hand-waving, and hoaxes in
theoretical physics, Dynamic Dimensions Theory rocks the universe with
a simple postulate.
The object of science is to unify formerly disparate phenomena within
a deeper framework, and Dynamic Dimensions Theory unifies both Quantum
Mechanics and Relativity with a simple framework.
For instance, both the results of the double-slit experiment and length
contraction of relativity are suddenly understood in the profound
context of Dynamic Dimensions Theory.
The famous equation E=3Dmc2 is presented in a deeper context, finally
accounting for the deeper physical reality that gives massive energies
to small masses seemingly at rest.
Godel's paradox of block-time is resolved, and action at a distance
and quantum entanglement are explained within the simple framework of
Dynamic Dimensions Theory.
The arrow of time and entropy-the second law of thermodynamics-are
accounted for, and time dialation is explained.
Dynamic dimensions theory is a theory so revolutionary that it may be
banned from the academy for years, as health benefits and tenure are
far more important than truth, logic, and reason in today's
postmodern academies.
And at last time is explained as a phenomenon that emerges from a
deeper physical reality.
THE GENERAL POSTULATE
OF DYNAMIC DIMENSIONS THEORY
The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions.
THE SPECIFIC POSTULATE
OF DYNAMIC DIMENSIONS THEORY
The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions at the rate of c in units of the Planck length, giving rise
to time and all classical, quantum mechanical, and relativistic
phenomena.
MDT IN BRIEF
Without further adieu, allow me to present the beauty and elegance of
MDT by showing both its simplicity and far-reaching ability to account
for and answer fundamental questions. All of the below will be
elaborated on throughout the book.
Questions Addressed by MDT:
Why does light have a maximum, constant speed independent of the
source? The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three
spatial dimensions. A photon is momenergy that exists orthogonal to
the three spatial dimensions. It is carried along by the expanding
fourth dimension. So no matter how fast the source is moving when the
photon is emitted, the photon travels at the rate with which the fourth
dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions. Thus c
is always independent of the movement of the source.
Why are light and energy quantized? The fourth dimension is expanding
in a quantized manner relative to the three spatial dimensions. Light
and energy are matter rotated completely into the fourth expanding
dimension, and as it expands in a quantized manner, light and energy
are thus quantized.
Why is the velocity of light constant in all frames? Time is an
emergent phenomena that arises because the fourth dimension is
expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions. The flow of time
is inextricably wed to the emission and propagation of photons. In all
biological, mechanical, and electronic clocks, the emission and
propagation of photons is what determines time. The velocity of light
is always measured with respect to time, which is inextricably linked
to the velocity of light. This tautology ensures that the velocity of
light, measured relative to the velocity of light, will always be the
same.
How can photons display both wave and particle properties? The
fundamental photon propagates as a spherical wave-front, surfing the
fourth expanding dimension. This is because the fourth expanding
dimension appears as a spherical wavefront as it expands through the
three spatial dimensions. The act of measurement localizes the
photon's momenergy, taking it out of the expanding fourth dimension
and trapping it in the three stationary spatial dimensions, and it
appears as a localized particle, trapped by electrons as it blackens a
grain on a photographic plate.
How can matter display both wave and particle properties? The
fundamental electron is abuzz with photons. Photons are continually
being emitted into the fourth expanding dimension and reabsorbed by the
electron. The continual dance with these photons gives the electron
its wave properties. Nothing moves without photons which up the net
probability that the combine momenergy will be in the expanding fourth
dimension. The more photons one adds to an object, the greater the
chance it has of existing in the expanding fourth dimension, and thus
it moves.
Why are there non-local effects in quantum mechanics? The fourth
dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions. That
means that what begins as a point in the fourth dimension is a sphere
with a 186,000 mile radius one second later. So it is that the entire
spherical wavefront of the photon exists in the exact same place in
time. Hence the non-locality observed in double slit experiments, the
EPR effect, and quantum entanglement. Take two interacting spin =BD
photons and let them propagate at the speed of c in opposite
directions. They are yet at the exact same place in time! And too,
they are yet in the exact same place of the fourth expanding dimension.
Why does time stop at the speed of light?
Time depends on the emission and propagation of photons. If no photons
are emitted, time does not occur. This holds true whether the clock is
an unwinding copper spring, a biological system such as a heart, or an
oscillating quartz crystal. No photom emission=3Dno time! As an object
approaches the speed of light, its ability to emit photons without
reabsorbing them diminishes. An object traveling at the speed of light
cannot emit a photon.
How come a photon does not age?
A photon represents momenergy rotated entirely into the fourth
expanding dimension. A photon stays the exact same place in the fourth
dimension, no matter how far it travels. A photon stays the exact same
place in time, no matter how far it travels. Again, time is not the
fourth dimension, but in inherits properties of the fourth dimension.
Why are inertial mass and gravitational mass the same thing?
Why do moving bodies exhibit length contraction?
Movement is always accompanied by a shortening in length. This is
because the only way for a body to move is for it to undergo a rotation
into the forth dimension, which is expanding relative to the three
spatial dimensions. The more energy an electron has, the more photons
it possesses, and the higher probability it exists in the expanding
fourth dimension. Hence its length appears contracted as perceived
from the three spatial dimensions.
Why are mass and energy equivalent?
The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions. That means that a baseball sitting on a lab table
stationary in our three-dimensional inertial reference frame, is yet
moving at a fantastic velocity relative to the fourth dimension. Hence
every seemingly stationary mass has a vast energy, as given by E=3Dmc2.
In a nuclear reaction matter is rotated into the expanding fourth
dimension, appearing as high-enegry photons (gamma rays) propagating at
the same velocity of the fourth expanding dimension-c.
Why does time's arrow point in the direction it points in? The fourth
dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions. Hence
every photon naturally expands in a spherically symmetric manner.
Hence every electron, or piece of matter that interacts with photons,
is naturally carried outward from a central point in a spherically
symmetric manner. Hence the particles in a drop of dye in a swimming
pool dissipate in a spherically symmetric manner, and are never
reunited. Hence time's arrow and entropy.
Why do photons appear as spherically-symmetric wavefronts traveling at
a velocity c? The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three
spatial dimensions at the velocity c. Hence photons, which are tiny
packets of momenergy rotated entirely into the fourth dimension, appear
as spherically-symmetric wavefronts propagating at the velocity c.
Why is there a minus sign in the following metric?
x^2+y^2+z^2-c^2t^2=3Ds^2
The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions at the velocity c. Hence the only way to stay still in the
space-time continuum, and to achieve a 0 interval, is to move with the
velocity of light.
What deeper reality underlies Einstein's postulates of relativity?
The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions at the velocity c. This single postulate assures that the
speed of light is constant for all observers and that the laws of
physics are the same in all inertial frames.
What deeper reality underlies Newton's laws?
Newton's laws are an approximation of relativity and quantum
mechanics, and as MDT underlies QM & relativity, it underlies
Newton's laws.
Why is an increase in velocity always accompanied by a decrease in
length as measured by an external observer? All increases in velocity
are accompanied by rotations into the fourth dimension. All
particles can be represented by momenergy 4-vectors. The greater the
momenrgy component in the expanding fourth dimension, the greater the
velocity and speed of the particle. Rest mass is the invariant here.
It never changes. It prefers the three spatial dimensions. In order
for it to move, one must gain energy in the form of photons. These
photons prefer the fourth expanding dimension. The more photons one
adds, the greater the component of the momenergy 4-vector that appears
in the fourth expanding dimension, the more energy the particle has,
the shorter it appears, and the faster it moves.
How MDT Is Aiding Fellow Physicists
"The conclusions from Bell's theorem are philosophically startling;
either one must totally abandon the realistic philosophy of most
working scientists or dramatically revise our concept of space-time."
-Abner Shimony and John Clauser
Moving Dimensions Theory provides this new concept of space-time. The
vast ambitions of most tenure-track physicists, including string
theorists and LQG hypers, causes them to focus on irrelevant, minute
questions, and thus, though funded by millions for over thirty years,
have not yet been able to string the bow. Deeper, true physicists,
such as Abner Shimony and John Clauser are alert to the fact that
physics need news ideas.
The expanding fourth dimension gives rise to non-local phenomena and
quantum entanglement, as the expanding fourth dimension means that two
events separated in the three spatial dimensions can yet appear to be
at the exact same place in the fourth dimension. MDT thus provides the
new concept of space-time.
"For me, then, this is the real problem with quantum theory: the
apparently essential conflict between any sharp formulation and
fundamental relativity. It may be that a real synthesis of quantum and
relativity theories requires not just technical developments but
radical conceptual renewal." -John Bell
Moving Dimensions Theory provides this radical conceptual renewal. The
expanding fourth dimension gives rise to non-local phenomena and
quantum entanglement, as the expanding fourth dimension means that two
events separated in the three spatial dimensions can yet appear to be
at the exact same place in the fourth dimension. MDT thus provides the
new concept of space-time.
"Entanglement is not one but rather the characteristic trait of quantum
mechanics." -Erwin Schrodinger
The expanding fourth dimension gives rise to non-local phenomena and
quantum entanglement, as the expanding fourth dimension means that two
events separated in the three spatial dimensions can yet be at the
exact same place in the fourth dimension. MDT thus provides the new
concept of space-time.
"The discovery of the quantum of action shows us not only the natural
limitation of classical physics, but, by throwing a new light upon the
old philsophical problem of the objective existence of phenomena
indepedently of our observations, confronts us with a situation
hitherto unknown in natural science." -Niels Bohr
The expanding fourth dimension gives rise to non-local phenomena and
quantum entanglement, as the expanding fourth dimension means that two
events separated in the three spatial dimensions can yet appear to be
at the exact same place in the fourth dimension. MDT thus provides the
new concept of space-time.
"I think we need a new way to look at time, not either Quantum
Mechanics or Relativity." -Roger Penrose
Time is an emergent property of a fourth dimension that is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions. Thus it inherits properties
of the fourth expanding dimension, but time is not the fourth expanding
dimension. MDT underlies time and explains time on a more fundamental
level.
"Should we be prepared to see some day a new structure for the
foundations of physics that does away with time? . . . Yes, because
'time' is in trouble." -John Wheeler
Time is an emergent property of a fourth dimension that is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions. Thus it inherits properties
of the fourth expanding dimension, but time is not the fourth expanding
dimension. MDT underlies time and explains time on a more fundamental
level.
"Time is clothed in a different garment for each role it plays in our
thinking." -John Wheeler
Time is an emergent property of a fourth dimension that is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions. Thus it inherits properties
of the fourth expanding dimension, but time is not the fourth expanding
dimension. MDT underlies time and explains time on a more fundamental
level.
"The word time came not from heaven but form the mouth of man." -John
Wheeler
Time is an emergent property of a fourth dimension that is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions. Thus it inherits properties
of the fourth expanding dimension, but time is not the fourth expanding
dimension. MDT underlies time and explains time on a more fundamental
level.
"My ideas about time all developed from the realization that if nothing
were to change we could not say that times passes. Change is primary,
time, if it exists at all, is something we deduce from it. My Italian
collaborator Bruno Bertotti and I found that the deep structure of
Einstein's general theory of relativity does correspond to this truth.
It is telling us that time does not exist as an independent thing and
that change is indeed primary. However, this is in the framework of
so-called classical physics, the form of physics that developed before
quantum mechanics was discovered. When the idea that time has no
independent existence is combined with the basic facts of quantum
mechanics in the simplest possible way, the implications are startling.
.. .The quantum universe is static. Only timeless Nows exist. The
quantum rules give them different probabilities. We experience the most
probable Nows as individual instants of time. The appearance of motion
and a flow of time are both illusions created by very special structure
of the instants that we experience." -Julian Barbour,
http://www.platonia.com/ideas.html
Time is an emergent property of a fourth dimension that is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions. Thus it inherits properties
of the fourth expanding dimension, but time is not the fourth expanding
dimension. MDT underlies time and explains time on a more fundamental
level.
"The mystery of time's arrow is the oldest problem in science
concerning the nature of time, predating even the theory of
relativity." -Paul Davies, About Time
MDT accounts for Time's Arrow: The fourth dimension is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions. Photons are momenergy
rotated entirely into this expanding fourth dimension. Hence any group
of photons originating from a central point will be found distant to
one-another. Hence every photon naturally expands in a spherically
symmetric manner. Hence every electron, or piece of matter, is
naturally carried outward from a central point in a spherically
symmetric manner. Hence a drop of dye in a swimming pool dissipates in
a spherically symmetric manner, and is never reunited. Hence time's
arrow and entropy.
Moving Dimensions Theory & On The Advancement Of Physics
Physics has been furthered far more often by a rugged individual
acknowledging the simple and obvious in a pursuit of the truth than
book-keepers-in-training playing games in the abstruse in pursuit of
tenure. The advancement of physics has ever depended far more on
logic, reason, and Truth than government grants, tenure, group think,
peer-reviewed journals, and aging bureaucracies. "That is the way
things are because that is the way things are," has lead to far more
physics than the contemporary, "things can't be that way because the
math dictates that we live in thirty-three dimensions and four are
curled up, and that is what NSF is funding."
When nobody could measure nor detect the supposed ether, Einstein
proclaimed, "there is no ether." When experiments showed that light
existed only in quantized packets, Einstein proclaimed that light only
existed in quantized packets, and he won the Nobel Prize. When spectra
from atoms showed discreet energies, Niels Bohr proclaimed that
electrons orbits were quantized, and he received a Nobel Prize. When
Maxwell's Equations had a recurring constant, Maxwell used c to denote
it, and Einstein proclaimed that the speed of light must be constant
for all observers-and so Special Relativity was born. When Einstein
juxtaposed objects falling towards the earth getting closer together
with the fact that two people starting at the equator, walking on
originally parallel lines of longitude towards the North Pole, would
come together because they were walking on a curve surface, Einstein
proclaimed that the space-time around a massive object must also be
curved. This along with Einstein's realization that the force of
gravity would be rendered null in free-fall, lead to General
Relativity.
And so it is that in the above paragraph you have the roots of the
greatest achievements of physics in the past 100+ years, dwarfing
String Theory, Loop Quantum Gravity, and thousands of their variatons,
which deal in the abstruse, complicated, muddled, and mythological
worlds which are safe from physics simple rigor.
Moving Dimensions Theory returns us to simpler times. It starts with
the simple and keeps it simple. Light travels with a maximum velocity
of c, because the fourth dimension is expanding at a rate relative to
the three spatial dimensions at the velocity of c. A photon expands
through space in a spherically symmetric manner. This is because the
fourth dimension expands through the three spatial dimensions in a
spherically symmetric manner. Energy and mass are equivalent, expressed
by E=3Dmc^2, because energy is nothing more than mass rotated into the
expanding fourth dimension. The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen effect (EPR)
effect, which calls instantaneous action at a distance "spooky," can be
accounted for by the expanding dimension-as a point expands, it is yet
a single locale in that dimension, and hence though separated by
distance in space, interacting particles may be in the same place in
the time dimension, and hence connected. The null vector of the photon,
which remains 0 no matter how far the photon travels in space-time, may
be accounted for by the fact that the fourth dimension is moving, and
thus the only way to stay still in the four dimensions is to move with
along with the expanding dimension. In Lorentzian Transformations,
there is no way for an object to be rotated into the time dimension
without it moving-this can be explained by the fact that the time
dimension is expanding. All wave-particle duality can be seen as the
result of the universe's existence upon a reality that has three
stationary spatial dimensions and one expanding time dimension-when
matter exists in the stationary dimensions, it is seen as mass, or a
particle. When matter exists in the time dimension it is seen as wave,
or a photon, or energy. Depending how we choose to observer matter
determines whether we observe its wave or particle properties. Photons
are quantized bundles of energy that propagate at the velocity of
c-this is because the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the
three spatial dimensions in a quantized manner, in units of Planck's
length at the rate of c. The Second Law of Thermodyamics, or the law of
Entropy, states that the universe tends towards disorder. This is
because the fourth dimension is expanding in a spherically symmetric
manner, constantly carrying all photons and interacting particles away
from one another-thus a drop of food coloring in a pool will be carried
outward and evenly distributed. In 1949 Godel published a paper showing
that within the theory of relativity, time as we understand it, does
not exist. Einstein recognized Godel's paper as "an important
contribution to the general theory of relativity," and since then
physicists have not been able to find any logical shortcomings in
Godel's work, and nobody has been able to account for the existence of
time. But the Theory of Moving Dimensions accounts for time as we know
it by showing that it is an emergent property of the underlying
dimension's intrinsic relative movement. Relativity becomes
increasingly exact at long-length scales but fails at short ones
because space-time itself is quantized, as the time dimension is
expanding in units of the Planck length.
The concept of general relativity's smooth geometry, at large scales,
disappears on short-distance scales-this has been a problem to string
theorists, but only because they were never bold enough to recognize
that's the way it is because that's the way it is. Realizing this might
have lead one of them to see that the fourth dimension is expanding at
a rate of c relative to the three spatial dimensions. So it is seen
that Moving Dimensions Theory offers a simple model upon which all
known phenomena of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics may rest. And
because the underlying architecture of the universe is
quantized-because the fourth dimension expands at the rate of c in
units of the Planck length relative to the three spatial dimensions,
quantum mechanics works for the small, while general relativity works
for the large. That is the way it is because that is the way it
is-this was the realization that lead to the postulate of MDT: the
fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions.
Are New Ideas Important in Physics?
String theorists don't make predictions, they make excuses.
-Richard Feynman
An important scientific innovation rarely makes its way by gradually
winning over and converting its opponents: What does happen is that the
opponents gradually die out. -Max Planck
..=2E.I do feel strongly that this is nonsense! ...I think all this
superstring stuff is crazy and is in the wrong direction. ... I don't
like it that they're not calculating anything. ...why are the masses
of the various particles such as quarks what they are? All these
numbers ... have no explanations in these string theories - absolutely
none! ... -Richard Feynman in Davies and Brown, Superstrings,

String theory is the Enron of physics, and like Enron, it is but the
tip of the iceberg of the widespread group-think decline. Where Enron
and Worldcom and Global Crossing lied to plunder pensions and
investors, String Theory lies to plunder tax and tuition dollars. With
millions of NSF dollars at stake, and billions more in the way of tax
and tuition, fashion and group-think are now held superior to logic and
reason in physics. And as in all totalitarian systems which hold
themselves above logic, reason, truth, justice, and practicality, the
worst are promoted, while the best are exiled. The group-think
sycophants get the postdocs, while the indie physicists must forage on
their own.
Are new ideas important in physics as prominent physicists so often
proclaim? If so, then why are young scientists with new ideas based in
logic, reason, and reality, so often castigated, impugned, and
crucified while those who quietly, passively, and uncreatively accept
the nonsensical, none-physics, crackpot mythologies of String Theory
and M-Theory rewarded with vast salaries, health benefits, TV shows,
book deals, and tenure?
I would very much like to discuss my new theory here, but I am
forbidden from even mentioning its name, as the String Theorists and
other fashionistas do not approve of theories with postulates based in
logic and reason. And so their multi-billion dollar myth is perpetuated
at the expense of logic, reason, and physics.
But time is on our side. And what is time? I am not allowed to say, as
my theory is banned for the moment.

The Scientific American review (of Peter Woit's Not Even Wrong) is by

of his pieces for the New York Times six years ago carries what he now
sees as an embarassing headline: "Physicists Finally Find a Way to
Test Superstring Theory" (in his defense, this kind of headline is
still appearing in over-hyped articles about string theory to this
day). I've been a bit surprised at how friendly a reception
Smolin's book and mine have been getting so far from science writers.
I think one reason for this is that many of them have repeatedly over
the last twenty years written articles about string theory that repeat
a lot of the hype promising imminent success in producing predictions.

to the critics. -Peter Woit's Rockin' Blog Not Even Wrong,

In his autobiography Einstein said:
Before I enter upon a critique of mechanics as a foundation of
physics, something of a broadly general nature will first have to be
said concerning the points of view according to which it is possible to
criticize physical theories at all. The first point of view is obvious:
The theory must not contradict empirical facts. However evident this
demand may in the first place appear, its application turns out to be
quite delicate. For it is often, perhaps even always, possible to
adhere to a general theoretical foundation by securing the adaption of
the theory to the facts by means of artificial additional assumptions.
In any case, however, this first point of view is concerned with the
confirmation of the theoretical foundation by the available empirical
facts.
The second point of view is not concerned with the relation to
the material of observation but with the premises of the theory itself,
with what may briefly but vaguely be characterized as the "naturalness"
or " logical simplicity" of the premises (of the basic concepts and of
the relations between these which are taken as a basis). This point of
view, an exact formulation of which meets with great difficulties, has
played an important role in the selection and evaluation of theories
since time immemorial. The problem here is not simply one of a kind of
enumeration of the logically independent premises (if anything like
this were at all unequivocally possible), but that of a kind of
reciprocal weighing of incommeasurable qualities. Furthermore, among
theories of equally "simple" foundation that one is to be taken as
superior which most sharply delimits the qualities of system in the
abstract (i.e., contains that most definite claims). Of the "realm" of
theories I need not speak here, inasmuch as we are confining ourselves
to such theories whose object is the totality of all physical
appearances. The second point of view may briefly be characterized as
concerning itself with the "inner perfection" of the theory, whereas
the first point of view refers to the "external confirmation." The
following I reckon as also belonging to the "inner perfection" of a
theory: we prize a theory more highly if, from the logical standpoint,
it is not the result of an arbitrary choice among theories which, among
themselves, are of equal value and analogously constructed.

Imagine two photons originating at the same point. As they travel at
the speed of light, they yet remain at the exact same place in time.
One second later one is measured to be 186,000 miles to the left of its
origin. The other is measured to be 186,000 miles to the right of its
origin. Though separated by 372,000 miles, they are at the exact same
place in time. This is because the fourth dimension is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions.
Picture a 1 kg weight sitting on a table. It yet has a vast energy
associated with it, proportional to E=3Dmc2. This is because although
stationary in the three spatial dimensions, it is yet traveling through
the fourth dimension at c. This is because the fourth dimension is
expanding at the rate of c relative to the three spatial dimenions.
MOVING DIMENSIONS THEORY
ABSTRACT
Moving Dimensions Theory accounts for and unifies general relativity
and quantum mechanics by postulating that the fourth dimension is
expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions in units of the
Planck length at the rate of c. In addition to providing a deeper
framework for the two theories, MDT offers an underlying context
accounting for quantum mechanical, relativistic, and classical physics.
Phenomena including wave-particle duality, interference phenomena, the
spherical symmetry of photon propagation, action at a distance, the
uncertainty principle, the gravitational redshift, time dilation,
Lorentzian contraction, time's arrow, the equivalence of mass and
energy, and time itself are accounted for within this deeper framework.
The above physical phenomena and many more, spanning quantum mechanics
and relativity, can be seen as arising from MDT's postulate. Time is
not the fourth dimension, but a phenomena that emerges because the
fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions,
resolving Godel's block universe paradox and Zeno's paradox.
..
1=2E The First Postulate of Moving Dimensions Theory
MDT's General Postulate: The fourth dimension is expanding relative
to the three spatial dimensions.
MDT's Specific Postulate: The fourth dimension is expanding relative
to the three spatial dimensions in units of the Planck length at the
rate of c.
2=2E It's As Simple As a Photon's Spherically Symmetric Wavefront
A photon propagates at the velocity c as a sphereically-symmetric
wavefron. The spherical symmetry of the photon's wavefront may be
viewed as the result of matter (momenergy) having been rotated into the
fourth dimension-the matter has become orthogonal to the spatial
dimensions, and it is now expanding along with the fourth dimension,
equally in all directions. Thus we may conclude that the fourth
dimension is expanding equally in all directions as a spherically
symmetric manner wherever space-time is flat. In regions of curved
space-time, the fourth dimension expands in a manner dictated by the
local curvature. Thus a photon emitted from the sun will appear
stretched, or red-shifted, when it is observed far away from the sun.
3=2E All Objects Travel Through Space-Time With The Velocity c
Einstein noted that all objects travel through space-time with the
velocity c.
This never changes.
This fact underlies the conservation principles.
And underlying the conservation principles is the fact that the fourth
dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions.
Even though we perceive a ruler along the x axis to be stationary, it
is yet traveling through space-time at the fixed speed of c, implying
that time is moving through it. Rotate the ruler towards the y axis,
and its projection upon the x axis shortens, yet it still appears to be
stationary, and it is still traveling through space-time at the rate of
c=2E
Rotate the ruler into the fourth dimension, known as the time
dimension, and its projection along the x axis shortens, according to
relativity and the Lorentz contraction. The ruler begins to propagate
through the three spatial dimensions, while maintaining the fixed speed
of c through space-time. The ruler moves through the three spatial
dimensions as it is rotated into the time dimension because the time
dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions.
4=2E Brian Green & Einstein Support Moving Dimensions Theory
As Brian Greene points out in the Appendix to Chapter 2 of The Elegant
Universe, "we note that from the space-time position 4-vector
x=3D(ct,x1,x2,x3), we can create the velocity 4-vector u=3Ddx/d(tau), where
tau is the proper time defined by
d(tau)^2=3Ddt^2-c^-2(dx1^2+dx2^2+dx3^2). Then the "speed through
space-time" is the magnitude of the 4-vector u,
((c^2dt^2-dx^2)/(dt^2-c^-2dx^2))^(1/2), which is identically the speed
of light c. Now, we can rearrange the equation
c^2(dt/d(tau))^2-(dx/d(tau))^2=3Dc^2 to be c^2(d(tau)/dt))^2
+(dx/d(tau))^2=3Dc^2. This shows that an increase of an object's speed
through space, (dx/d(tau))^2)^(1/2)=3D dx/d(tau) must be accompanied by a
decrease in d(tau)/dt which is the object's speed through time, which
also may be considered the rate at which time elapses on it's own clock
d(tau) or the proper time, as compared with that on our stationary
clock dt."
5=2E Surfing A Wave Analogy : The Birth of Moving Dimensions Theory
Here's a good analogy of "surfing a wave" that sheds light on Moving
Dimensions Theory.
A few years back, while surfing a towering wave on the Outer Banks of
North Carolina, a beautiful thought occurred to me. Suppose the wave I
was riding represented a coordinate in a dimension. Then although I was
approaching shore, I was not moving in this dimension. The dimension
itself was moving-I was stationary with respect to this dimension,
but moving relative to other dimensions. I was "surfing" a moving
dimension.
The General Postulate of Moving Dimensions Theory: The fourth dimension
is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions.
In a flash I saw that that is why photons never age-they are moving
along with the fourth dimension, and thus stationary relative to the
fourth dimension, while moving at the velocity of light relative to the
three spatial dimensions.
And behold! I saw that "moving dimensions" explained the equivalence of
mass and energy. E=3Dmc2 arose because whenever matter "surfs" the
expanding time dimension, it appears as energy in the three spatial
dimensions. In another flash I saw that that is why a photon's
space-time interval is represented by a null vector, or a 0, no matter
how far it travels through space.
Indeed, in his special theory of relativity, Einstein stated that an
object's velocity through space-time is always c. This means that even
objects stationary in the three spatial dimensions yet have a velocity
c through the fourth dimension. How could this be unless the fourth
dimension is moving relative to the three spatial dimensions? Even
"stationary" objects sitting on your desk are traveling at the velocity
c through time! How could this be were it not that the fourth dimension
is traveling at the velocity c relative to the object that is
stationary in the three spatial dimensions? Thus there exists a fourth
expanding dimension, which matter can surf as photons, giving rise to
our notion of time, as well as the equivalence of mass and energy in
E=3Dmc^2. And so it is that Moving Dimensions Theory was born as the
wave crested and crashed about me, thundering on down, as I fought to
remain surfing amidst the foam, facing the setting sun silhouetting the
Hatteras light.
6=2E What Does It Mean For A Dimension to Move?
Einstein's well-regarded theory of General Relativity inherently
necessitates the reality of moving dimensions. And yet some trained
physicists have a knee-jerk reaction that the fourth dimension cannot
be moving because "dimensions cannot move." But dimensions can and do
move relative to one-another. First off, since the universe is
expanding, space-time is also expanding, demonstrating that dimensions
are moving and expanding. Secondly, general relativity demonstrates
that massive objects warp space-time, meaning that as a massive object
moves though space-time, it stretches space-time, showing again that
space-time in one area can move, or deform, relative to space-time in
another area. GR is a sound theory, backed up with multiple
high-profile experiments, including the demonstration that starlight is
bent by the sun and the verification that orbiting stars radiate energy
in the form of gravity waves.
Thus there exist neither philosophical nor physical barriers to the
concept of moving dimensions, but for artificial ones within lazy
minds. A curious sign of the times is that some physicists will accept
on blind faith the existence of ten, twenty, or thirty dimensions,
dimensions that are mysteriously "curled up," or "too small to
measure," and yet they will reel in shock and horror at a perfectly
obvious postulate-the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the
three spatial dimensions.
7=2E MDT & The Purpose of Physics
The purpose of physics has ever been to unify diverse physical
phenomena with simple postulates, laws, and formulas reflecting the
deeper physical reality. MDT unifies relativity and quantum mechanics
by positing that they are both emergent properties of moving
dimensions. MDT's simple postulate-the fourth dimension is
expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions-offers the first
satisfactory explanation of the Einstein Podolsky Rosen (EPR) effect
and the nonlocal behavior inherent to the math and physical reality of
quantum mechanics. Time itself is viewed not as the fourth dimension,
but as an emergent phenomena arising from the expansion of the fourth
dimension relative to the three spatial dimensions. This logic
alleviates a confusion of time with an actual fourth dimension where
one can travel back and forth at will, thus addressing Godel's,
Einstein's, Hawking's, Barbour's, and Penrose's concerns about frozen
time, and accounting for time's relentless arrow, the second law of
thermodynamics, and entropy. MDT 1) unifies disparate phenomena within
a common underlying framework 2) resolves the paradoxes of time travel
3) accounts for the natural wave-particle duality of all mass and
energy, and 4) accounts for hitherto strange behavior noted n Bell's
inequalities and the EPR paradox.
6=2E Rotations Into 4th Dimension Are Always Accompanied by Acceleration
in Spatial Dimensions
Simply put, it is not possible to rotate an object into the fourth
dimension without that object gaining a velocity. Thus the time
dimension itself must be expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions. Another way of looking at this is asking, "Why does
something always move when it is rotated out of the three spatial
dimensions and into the time dimension?" If someone can conduct a
Lorentz transformation on a ruler, and rotate it into the time
dimension without it moving through the three spatial dimensions, I
would very much like to hear about it.
7=2E Einstein's Two Postulates Restated by MDT's Single Postulate
I=2E The laws of physical phenomena are the same in all inertial frames.
II. The velocity of light in free space is a universal constant,
independent of any relative motion of the source and the observer.
MDT proposes that the two postulates can be expressed in an alternative
manner, by stating the following law of moving dimensions:
I=2E The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions.
This can be illustrated in several ways: Consider an expression for the
space-time interval of zero length, or of the null vector, which traces
a photon's path through space-time:
x^2+y^2+z^2-c^2t^2=3D0
or
x^2+y^2+z^2=3Dc^2t^2
Which for one spatial dimension becomes
x^2=3Dc^2t^2
or x=3Dct
by taking the derivative of both sides with respect to t, we get
dx/dt =3D d/dt (ct) =3D c
so
dx/dt =3D c
And hence the time rate of change of the spatial dimension relative to
the time rate of change of the time dimension is equal to the velocity
of light.

Through Space

x
Also, if we trace the path of a photon on a space-time diagram, the
only way for a photon to remain stationary in space-time is to move at
the speed of light.
Think about this.
In order to stay stationary in space-time, the photon must propagate
through space with the velocity c. It must keep up with the expanding
fourth dimension in order to have zero net movement through space-time.
The null vector, which represents a vector of zero length in
space-time, can only imply zero movement through space-time. Even
though a photon moves through space at a velocity equal to c, it stays
stationary in space-time. Is it not strange at first that in order to
remain stationary in space time, a photon moves through space? This is
because the fourth dimension itself is moving relative to space.
Moving Clocks Emit Less Photons =3D Moving Clocks Run Slow
As an object accelerates through space, it is rotated more and more
into the expanding fourth dimension. Less wave fronts of the expanding
fourth dimension, which can carry away photons, are allowed to pass
through it. Thus a moving clock will run slower, as all clocks are
based on the probabilistic emission and propagation of photons, and as
a moving clock catches up with the expanding wavefront of time, the
chance that a photon will be emitted without being reabsorbed is
diminished. Simply put, the faster a clock propagates, the more
likely it is to reabsorb a photon, and as an object ceases to emit
photons, it ceases to age, as all aging, be it the unwinding of a clock
spring, the oscillations of a quartz crystal, or biochemical reactions,
are inherently related to the emission of photons.
A Photon Preserves its Fourth Dimension Geometry as it Propagates:
Gravitational Redshift
Spacetime is stretched near to massive objects, relative to far away
spacetime. Thus a photon generated close to a massive object will be
red-shifted when observed far away from the massive object. For when
the photon is emitted, it is emitted at a certain frequency which is
really the ratio of its length in space relative to its length in time.
Its length in time is conserved, and as it propagates it encounters an
underlying unstretched metric, or unstretched spacetime, and thus it
itself appears to be stretched, or red-shifted.
MDT Explains The Shapiro Time Delay Effect
The Shapiro time delay effect, or gravitational time delay effect, is
one of the four classic solar system tests of General relativity.
Radar signals passing near a massive object take slightly longer to
travel to a target and longer to return (as measured by the observer)
than they would if the mass of the object were not present. Spacetime
is stretched close to the massive object, and the photon preserves its
geometry of where it was generated. Thus it appears shorter as it
passes through the stretched spacetime, and it is blue shifted as it
passes by the massive object, and then red shifted as it travels away.
Also, it has further to travel, as it retains the same length from
where it was generated, while the space around the massive object is
stretched.
Time is an Emergent Phenomena of Moving Dimensions-It is Not a
Dimension
Einstein's, Penrose's (and many leading physicist's) mistaken view of
"the future being out there" in a block universe arises because
physicists misleadingly label "time" the fourth dimension, thus
implying that just as we can move anywhere in the three spatial
dimensions, such as up and down and back again, so too can we move
anywhere in the time dimension, to the past, the future, and back
again, implying that both the past and future must exist, as sure as
New York and Los Angeles.
But time is not so much the fourth dimension as it is an emergent
phenomena that arises because a fourth dimension is expanding at the
rate of c relative to the three spatial dimensions in a spherically
symmetric manner in units of the Planck length.
The Debate Over the Block Universe: MDT To the Rescue:
Again we see quantum mechanics and relativity at odds over the debate
of the block universe implied by relativity, which seems to imply a
definitive, real future, which seemingly contradicts quantum mechanic's
inherent randomness and free will. MDT resolves this paradox by viewing
time not as the fourth dimension, but as a phenomena that emerges
because the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions. Because all time is measured via the propagation of
photons, and because all photons propagate as matter carried along by
the expanding fourth dimension, time has oft been ascribed properties
of a fourth dimension similar to the three spatial dimensions,
resulting in paradoxical, misleading interpretations of the universe.
Suffice it to say MDT sees time not as a dimension, but as an emergent
property of a fourth dimension expanding relative to three spatial
dimensions.
In their paper concerning the paradoxes outlined above, "The Debate
over the Block Universe," Isham, C.J. and J.C. Polkinghorne write:
http://www.meta-library.net/ctns-vo/isham-body.html
"Proponents of the block universe appeal to special and general
relativity to support a timeless view in which all spacetime events
have equal ontological status. The finite speed of light, the light
cone structure, and the downfall of universal simultaneity and with it
the physical status of "flowing time" in special relativity result in a
heightened tendency to ontologize spacetime. The additional
arbitrariness in the choice of time coordinates in general relativity
makes flowing time physically meaningless. Thus no fundamental meaning
can be ascribed to the "present" as the moving barrier with the kind of
unique and universal significance needed to unequivocally distinguish
"past" from "future." Instead the flowing present is a mental
construct, and four-dimensional spacetime is an "eternally existing"
structure. God may know the temporality of events as experienced
subjectively by creatures, but God cannot act temporally, since flowing
time has no fundamental meaning in nature. Theologians must accept the
Boethian and even gnostic implications of the block universe."
http://www.meta-library.net/ctns-vo/isham-body.html
Isham and Polkinghorne continue: "Opponents of the block universe begin
by distinguishing between kinematics and dynamics. Special relativity
imposes only kinematic constraints on the structure of spacetime. The
dynamics of quantum physics and chaos theory encourages a view of
nature as open and temporal, thus allowing for both human and divine
agency. The problem of the lack of universal simultaneity is lessened
since simultaneity is an a posteriori construct. Philosophically
disposed to critical realism, opponents are wary of the incipient
reductionism of the block view. They resist the Boethian implications
of relativity, and argue instead that divine omnipresence must be
redefined in terms of a special frame of reference, perhaps one
provided by the cosmic background radiation. God's knowledge of
spacetime events in terms of this frame of reference will be
constrained by both the world's causal sequence and the distinction
between past and future. Similarly God's actions will be consistent
with relativity theory."
http://www.meta-library.net/ctns-vo/isham-body.html
In MDT, both quantum mechanics and relativity are in perfect harmony,
but the time in relativity is not a dimension on equal footing with the
three spatial dimensions. Rather, time is an emergent parameter arising
from matter (photons) being carried along with a fourth dimension that
is expanding at a constant rate relative to the three spatial
dimensions.
MDT & Time's Arrow / 2nd Law of Thermodyamics / Entropy
Entropy states that the universe tends towards disorder. This is
because the fourth dimension is expanding in a spherically symmetric
manner, constantly carrying all initially close photons and particles
away from one another-thus a drop of food coloring in a pool is carried
outward and evenly distributed as time evolves. Because the fourth
dimension is expanding as a spherically symmetric wavefront through the
three spatial dimensions, photons, as well as all matter that interacts
with photons, exhibits a probability to move in a spherically symmetric
manner. Thus, if we have a clump of atoms in the middle of a room, a
probability exists for the atoms to spread apart in a spherically
symmetrical manner, being carried along by the expanding time
dimension.
Traveling Backwards in Time:
The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions. The expansion appears as a spherically-symmetric wave-front
propagating throughout the three spatial dimensions. This is the prime
mover-the fundamental source of all time, energy, and motion. When
matter exists completely in the fourth dimension, it appears as a
photon, expanding in a spherical wave-front relative to the three
spatial dimensions. Now Huygen's Principle shows that each point upon
the crest of a spherically symmetric wavefront is itself a spherically
symmetric wavefront. That means that there is a finite probability that
a photon's spherical wavefront will collapse into a smaller region, in
which case it might be measured to be somewhere where it was. Such a
photon may be said to be traveling back in time, and such a photon will
have traveled less than the speed of light.
On the quantum scale, where the fourth dimension is expanding in units
of the Planck length, there is a higher chance of light being measured
to move slower or faster than the speed of light-there is a higher
chance of a photon traveling backwards, or its expanding wave front
getting a little smaller as opposed to bigger, but over large distances
the speed of light is determined to be c.
And just like photons, electrons and other particles may from be seen
to go back in time. All this means is that their wave functions are
surfing a region of the fourth-dimension which is contracting as
opposed to expanding-there is a small probability of this happening,
due to Huygen's principle, as elaborated on above.
But time travel on a macroscopic scale is prohibited, as the past and
future do not exist. We do not live in a block universe, wherein time
is a dimension, but rather time is an emergent phenomena, accounted for
with MDT's postulate: the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the
three spatial dimensions.
Godel's Block Universe Paradox Resolved
In 1949 Godel published a paper showing that within the theory of
relativity, time as we understand it, does not exist. Einstein
recognized Godel's paper as "an important contribution to the general
theory of relativity," and since then physicists have not been able to
find any logical shortcomings in Godel's work, and nobody has been able
to account for the existence of time. But the Theory of Moving
Dimensions accounts for time as we know it by showing that it is an
emergent property of the underlying dimension's intrinsic relative
movement.
Godel wrote, "By making a round trip on a rocket ship in a sufficiently
wide course, it is possible in these worlds to travel into any region
of the past, present, and future, and back again, exactly as it is
possible in other worlds to travel to distant parts of space. This
state of affairs seems to imply an absurdity. For it enables one to
travel into the near past of those places where he himself lived. There
he would find a person who would be himself at some earlier period of
life. Now he could do something to this person, which, by his memory,
he knows has not happened to him."
Kaku writes, "Kurt Godel's essay constitutes, in my opinion, an
important contribution to the general theory of relativity, especially
to the analysis of the concept of time. The problem here involved
disturbed me already at the time of the building up of the general
theory of relativity, without my having succeeded in clarifying it...
The distinction "earlier-later" is abandoned for world-points which lie
far apart in a cosmological sense, and those paradoxes, regarding the
direction of the causal connection, arise, of which Mr. Godel has
spoken. . . It will be interesting to weigh whether these are not to be
excluded on physical grounds." -Michio Kaku
The mistake Einstein made in his formulation was confusing time itself
with the fourth dimension. Time is an emergent property that we witness
because of the fourth dimension expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions, and because it thus inherits properties of a dimension, it
is all too tempting for physicists to refer to time as a dimension.
Time travel is impossible both in reality and Moving Dimensions theory,
though I encourage prominent physicists to keep on writing books about
time machines and bookstores to stock them in the science-fiction
sections.
Time arises from the interaction of the expanding fourth dimension with
the three spatial dimensions, but many physicists mistakenly labeled
the fourth dimension as the time dimension.
A lot of confusion has arisen by from this mislabeling coupled with the
physicists' tendency to over-extend metaphors. As soon as physicists
mistakenly labeled the fourth dimension the time dimension, they were
eager to see it as an entity analogous to the three spatial dimensions,
where one can get from any point to any other point.
But time is an emergent property deriving from the expansion of a
single spatial dimension relative to the three other stationary spatial
dimensions. The fourth dimension expands in units of the Planck length
at the rate of c, so in a sense the fourth dimension is only ever
Planck's length deep to all macroscopic objects. Only a photon can
exist in this dimension, orthogonal to the three dimensions, and at
that point a photon is matter surfing the expanding dimension. Huygen's
principle demonstrates that every point along a spherically symmetric
wavefront is the source of a spherically symmetric wave, and so it is
with a photon. This is because every point in space-time is the source
of a spherically symmetric expansion of the fourth dimension relative
to the three stationary dimensions.
Time travel to any significant degree is impossible because the time
dimension never reaches deeper than Planck's length. You could only go
back in time by Planck's time, which wouldn't be very useful!
Physicists enjoy viewing the time dimension on equal footing with the
spatial dimensions. After all, they say it is just another a
"dimension" that just happens to have a minus sign infront of it in the
space-time metric. But they never seek to explain the minus sign.
Instead they rush straight ahead into all their ridiculous notions of
time travel, stating that just as we can get from any point A to any
point B in space, we can get from any point A to any point B in time.
But time travel has never been accomplished, nor will it ever be.
Physicists were right in recognizing that time is a dimension, but they
fell short in recognizing that it was different from the three spatial
dimensions in that it is expanding at the rate of c relative to the
three spatial dimensions.
The notion of past, present, and future is more related to the change
of energy than it is to the actual existence of a physical past, a
physical present, and a physical future. Only the present ever exists,
and the past is what is recorded in our minds-it exists nowhere else.
But because time is a dimension, physicists were seduced into believing
one could travel anywhere within it. But in reality we never get any
further than Planck's length deep in time, and it is at that depth
that photons surf through the universe, while electrons oscillate, and
out bodies maintain their average position firmly in the three spatial
dimensions as the time dimension expands relentlessly about us in units
of Planck's length.
"For Godel, if there is time travel, there isn't time. The goal of the
great logician was not to make room in physics for one's favorite
episode of Star Trek, but rather to demonstrate that if one follows the
logic of relativity further even than its father was willing to
venture, the results will not just illuminate but eliminate the reality
of time." -A World Without Time, Palle Yourgrau
Unification of QM and Relativity
Relativity becomes increasingly exact at long-length scales but fails
at short ones because space-time itself is quantized, as the time
dimension is expanding in units of the Planck length. The concept of
general relativity's smooth geometry, at large scales, disappears on
short-distance scales-this has been a problem to string theorists, but
only because they were never bold enough to recognize that's the way it
is because that's the way it is-GR does not break down at distances
smaller than the Planck length because such distances do not exist with
any degree of certainty. The fourth dimension is expanding relative to
the three spatial dimensions in units of the Planck length, and thus
distances smaller than the Planck length cannot be measured nor
defined.
In An Elegant Universe, Brian Greene writes, "Recall that the problem
in merging general relativity and quantum mechanics turns up when the
central tenet of the former-that space and time constitute a smoothly
curving geometrical structure-confronts the essential feature of the
latter-that everything in the universe, including the fabric of space
and time, undergoes quantum fluctuations that become increasingly
turbulent when probed on smaller and smaller distance scales. On
sub-Planck-scale distances, the quantum undulations are so violent that
they destroy the notion of a smoothly curving geometrical space; this
means that general relativity breaks down."
But general relativity does not break down. It works perfectly well,
holding the planets in their orbits, curving space and time about
massive objects, bending light just so, in accordance with Einstein's
equations.
General relativity does not break down at sub-Planck-scale distances
because such distances do not exist. The fourth dimension is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions in units of the Planck length,
and thus all physical measurements and physical definitions are larger
than the Planck length. General relativity need have no fear of ever
breaking down at distances smaller than the Planck length, because such
distances do not exist in the physical world!!
Moving Dimensions & String Theory
After thirty years and billions of dollars, all it has to show for
itself is a cult following. Not postulates. No laws. No equations.
No predictions. Before string theory can be tested, it first must step
forward with something to test. String theory must step forward with
simple postulates, laws, predictions, and equations-until that day,
it will remain a hoax to the degree it is funded.
Whereas String Theory retreats into realms beyond physical reality,
beyond experimental tests, beyond postulates, laws, and predictions,
Moving Dimensions Theory stays simply wedded to a single
postulate-the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three
spatial dimensions. Where String Theory retreats into a mathematical
realm where postulates, laws, words, and physical intuition are blinded
so that politics and strategic faith might reign supreme, MDT seeks a
return to those simpler days of physics, where physics was reduced to
first principles.
Perhaps String Theory could find a new home as a subset of MDT, wherein
the vibrating strings are vibrating/surfing upon wavefronts of the a
fourth dimension that's expanding relative to the three spatial
dimensions.
Zeno's Paradox Resolved
If you travel from point A to point B, you must travel half of the
distance to point B before traveling the complete distance. Now from
that point you must again travel half the remaining distance. If you
continue to do so (travel half the remaining distance) you will never
reach point B.
Extended to its logical conclusion, this reasoning implies that you
could never move in the first place.
But things move.
Motion is a fundamental part of the universe. And that is because it is
embedded within the four dimensions, which consist of three stationary
dimensions and one that is expanding with a velocity of c in a
spherically symmetric manner, in units of Planck's length, relative to
the three stationary dimensions.
Because the time dimension is expanding at a uniform rate equally in
all directions, every particle has a greater chance of being somewhere
different than where it currently is as time moves on. For every
particle is subject to the whims of this ever-expanding dimension.
Stephen Hawking's Block Universe: Wrong
Hawking writes, "Quantum theory introduces a new idea, that of
imaginary time. Imaginary time may sound like science fiction, and it
has been brought into Doctor Who [an English Star Trek]. But never the
less, it is a genuine scientific concept. One can picture it in the
following way. One can think of ordinary, real, time as a horizontal
line. On the left, one has the past, and on the right, the future. But
there's another kind of time in the vertical direction. This is called
imaginary time, because it is not the kind of time we normally
experience. But in a sense, it is just as real, as what we call real
time."
Hawking's logic succumbs to a common physical misinterpretation of
time. In stating, "One can think of ordinary, real, time as a
horizontal line. On the left, one has the past, and on the right, the
future," Hawking is confusing our notion of time that is an emergent
phenomena arising from a fourth dimension expanding relative to three
spatial dimensions with the fallacious view of time as a dimension, on
equal footing with space. Hawking's and Penrose's mistaken view of "the
future being out there" arises because of physicists misleadingly
labeling "time" the fourth dimension, thus implying that just as we can
move anywhere in the three spatial dimensions, such as up and down and
back again, so too can we move anywhere in the time dimension, to the
past, the future, and back again, implying that both the past and
future must exist, as sure as New York and Los Angeles.
Time is an emergent phenomena of a fourth dimension expanding relative
to the three spatial dimensions-thus time sometimes appears to have
dimensional properties. A Lorentz transformation can rotate an object
into the "time" dimension, and we can appear to travel through the
"time" dimension, but in both cases the time dimension is our
interpretation of physical events in a universe with a fourth dimension
that is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions. All time
is measured relative to the propagation of photons, and because all
photons propagates via surfing the fourth dimension that is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions, time has oft been ascribed
properties of a fourth dimension.
Peter Lynds' View of Time: Closer to MDT's Reality
In Peter Lynds' abstract to "Time and classical and quantum mechanics:
Indeterminacy vs. discontinuity," Lynds states, "It is postulated there
is not a precise static instant in time underlying a dynamical physical
process at which the relative position of a body in relative motion or
a specific physical magnitude would theoretically be precisely
determined. It is concluded it is exactly because of this that time
(relative interval as indicated by a clock) and the continuity of a
physical process is possible, with there being a necessary trade off of
all precisely determined physical values at a time, for their
continuity through time. This explanation is also shown to be the
correct solution to the motion and infinity paradoxes, excluding the
Stadium, originally conceived by the ancient Greek mathematician Zeno
of Elea. Quantum Cosmology, Imaginary Time and Chronons are also then
discussed, with the latter two appearing to be superseded on a
theoretical basis." (Lynds, Peter, Foundations of Physics Letters,
16(4), 343-355, 2003)
This is because time is an emergent phenomena, arising because the
fourth dimension is expanding at a rate of c relative to the three
stationary spatial dimensions in unitis of the Planck length. There is
no precise time underlying a physical process because all measurements
of time are limited by Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, as the
expansion of the fourth dimension, by which time is defined, is
occurring in quantized units of the Planck length.
Lynds sees that there is no precise time underlying a physical process
because he argues that to have a defined position with respect to time
would mean that a moving object would have to be frozen. However, this
never happens, because all motion takes place upon a backround where
time is not a dimension nor a parameter, but a device that we have used
as a tool to measure distance, interval, and motion as best we know
how. That this has led to paradoxes is no wonder, but the paradoxes are
resolved with viewing time not as a fourth dimension, but as an
emergent phenomena that rises because a fourth dimension is expanding
relative to the three spatial dimensions in units of the Planck length,
and that it is this fourth dimension that carries photons by which all
measurements of time are made. Thus time is fundamentally quantum
mechanical in behavior, inheriting a probabilistic and quantized
nature, and when quantum mechanics manifests itself throughout the
macroscopic world, it is often deemed paradoxical.
MDT & Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle:
Because the fourth dimension is expanding in quantized units, and
because all measurements require energy which only ever propagates in
quantized units as all energy is the result of photons surfing the
expanding fourth dimension, there is an inherent limitation to the
detail of measurement, arising from the nature of the quantized
expansion of the fourth dimension relative to the three spatial
dimensions.
Newton's Laws, Inertia & The Conservation Laws:
The Law of Inertia: All objects conserve their relative rotation in
space-time. An accelerated objected is rotated more into the expanding
fourth dimension, resulting in an increased probability it will move
relative to the three spatial dimensions. This is accomplished by
adding photons to the object, thereby increasing its mass along with
the net object's (object+photons) probability of existing in the
expanding third dimension. A decelerated electron emits photons,
lowering its probability of being in the fourth expanding dimension, as
its velocity relative to the three spatial dimensions slows.
Probability/Rotation are Conserved:
Every entity has a probability of existing in both space and time. The
greater a probability an entity has of existing in time, the more
energy it will be observed to have from a stationary observer. Energy
is added to an object by the way of photons, and thus all additions of
energy to any object increase the objects mass.
Take an electron in a particle accelerator for example. As energy is
added to it, it circles the accelerator faster and faster and gains
more and more mass. The more photons that are added to it, the higher
the probability it exists in the time dimension. It is rotated into the
time dimension, and its time slows down as its effective length
contracts.
The probability of being in the space and time dimensions is a
conserved quantity, manifesting itself as the conservation of momentum
and energy. If no energy is added or subtracted, its momentum and
energy remain constant-its rotation in space-time remains constant.
As an object is given energy, the added photons give the net object a
higher probability of being in the time dimension, and thus it
propagates faster through the three spatial dimensions, as it "surfs"
upon crests of the expanding dimension through space-time.

Relativity is what generally emerges at great distances and high
speeds, and quantum mechanics generally emerges at tiny distances for
tiny objects. The quantized expansion of
THE QM, GR & MDT: A DIALOGUE WITH PENROSE ET. AL
Roger Penrose longs for Moving Dimensions Theory. Where he falls short
in the following discussion is where he states, "the future is out
there." The future is not out there. But where Penrose steers close is
in acknowledging, "I think we need a new way to look at time, not
either Quantum Mechanics or Relativity." MD Theory offers this new
way.
Time is an emergent phenomena. Time happens because a fourth dimension
is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions.
Moving Dimensions Theory offers a new way of looking at time underlying

Hi!
This paper is an attempt to answer why modern physics works while
nobody knows how it can be like that. It's an attempt to combine the
four fundamental forces; to explain the measurement problem, to explain
the duality wave-particle, to explain why light speed is constant
..=2E.etc.
Am I right? Am I wrong? I don't care.
The paper in it's all is wrong but maybe somewhere there is a part of
truth.
I am not a physicist. Physics are my hobby.
My English is very bad.
But I really want to share my thoughts of amateur with someone who can
understand. You have here a funny idea clumsily expressed.
I intend this paper to be understood by professionals, but I am afraid
my very bad English and the use of a non-professional style made it
very hard to read and seem worthless.
I don't believe in many things, but I prefer keeping my common sense,
I prefer this hypothesis to quantum strangeness. I agree that common
sense is based on unproved axioms, but I think, in physics we didn't
yet reach the common sense limits.
Whatever I'll not die more ignorant than any other man. No one knows
the truth, (if there is any truth).
Common sense will tell you not to read this article, but common sense
is no more reliable guide in modern physics, so let's take a look at
it. It's worth reading (right or wrong? it doesn't matter).
Read this paper as an entertainment; don't take it seriously. Read it
as a fiction.
I hope you'll enjoy it. Have a good read.
Introduction:
"Some people say that only few men understood the theory of relativity.
And no one understands quantum mechanics. ..."
Is it true? No problem this paper starts away from these two theories
and far from any other theory. We will start from an Euclidean space
with "absolute time" and "absolute space", measurements will be
given instantly (we'll not be limited by the information speed)
I know that it's practically useless in experimentation and practical
calculations but it's necessary to explain my hypothesis. Don't
worry relativity; curved space-time; quantum mechanics.... All will be
explained. (Almost J)
I begin this paper by a preliminary chapter to explain the choice of
the Euclidean space and the absolute time, these four dimensions are
our reference. I prefer to call it absolute reference because it deals
with absolute space and absolute time.
To understand my hypothesis you must first understand the
"effervescence phenomenon" which is the first chapter subject;
Then you must understand the new concepts according to this hypothesis
(definition of space-time; energy; force ...etc) these definitions are
given in chapter tow.
Before reading following chapters (III and IV) you must digest previous
ones (I and II) not because it's difficult to understand but
there's too many informations to catch.
Chapter III and IV contain a confrontation of my hypothesis with theory
of relativity and quantum mechanics,
Our theoretical basis is not deducible from quantum mechanics or from
theory of relativity but it lead us to their interpretation. It's
rather an interpretation than a confrontation, we try to explain the
measurement problem, the duality wave-particle, the wave function
collapse the quantum entanglement and other physic's phenomena.
PRELIMINARY CHAPTER: CHOICE OF EUCLIDEAN (***) SPACE AND ABSOLUTE TIME.
At the start of this chapter we agree that the continuous real line
that we see is a creation of our brain and nervous system. Everything
we see and touch is made up of fundamental particles.
Our intuition about the time flow is also a creation of our brain. But
we'll start here in a four absolute dimensions reference (three
dimensions of the Euclidean space + absolute time): that means physical
space-time will be studied in absolute space and absolute time.
In an Euclidean space, time and space are treated as distinct
dimensions, while in the following definition of physical time and
physical space it's hard to make a distinction between them. Actually
it's hard to make distinction between all properties of matter.
So please always remember: here time and space are absolute and events
measurements are given instantly (we'll not be limited by information
speed).
I think there's no need to give definition to this "absolute
reference", it's an intuition everyone has, however I am afraid
some physicists have forgot it.
If you don't need more details (and I am sure you don't) go
straight ahead to chapter one. But if you want to know my view of
absolute space and absolute time read the following paragraphs.
Absolute space:
Absolute space corresponds to our intuitive understanding of space,
it's the three dimensional Euclidean space.
The standard meter or simply meter, is defined as the distance traveled
by light in a vacuum during a time interval of 1/299 792 458 of a
second. But information brought by light is not reliable. This is due
to the Structure of space-time and not to the light speed.
To more details see my explanation of the uncertainty principle,
You'll see that light speed is the most reliable but remain not
totally reliable.
Otherwise, Space measurement needs a "distance standard" which
means a piece of matter "a ruler" to compare its length with other
elements length. Because made up of matter the ruler will never remain
the same (matter looses energy and gains energy, looses particles and
gains particles constantly).
The "distance standard" is reliable only exactly at the moment T0
when it has been chosen as a "distance standard". At a different
moment (T >< T0) the "distance standard" is no more the same, it
changed.
The only way to have an absolute "distance standard" is to freeze
the ruler exactly at the moment we choose it as a "distance
standard". Freezing it, means no loss or absorption of energy no loss
or absorption of particles no motion of atoms and even no motion inside
atoms.
It will be a reliable ruler but not absolutely reliable because the
space inside the ruler will be heterogeneous (see definition of
physical space).
Absolute time:
The =AB conventional second" is defined as 9 192 631 770 oscillations
of specified transition in Cs-133 atom.
Atom means matter, and we said that matter is not stable it's
constantly changing (matter looses energy and gains energy, looses
particles and gains particles constantly).
And you'll agree that Cs-133 atom oscillation is not the same since
the big bang and until the big crunch. It's always changing. This
changing occurs even during the shortest moment.
The only way to have an absolute "time standard" of a second is to
freeze that second oscillations sequence exactly at the moment we
choose it as a "time standard" I mean to catch it like we catch a
video sequence.
The Cs-133 atom will be isolated (no interactions with outside
elements) and the oscillation sequence can be played as many times as
we want, the same sequence will be seen each time with no change.
That's the only way to have a reliable "time standard" but not
absolute "time standard" because the time flow inside this "time
standard" will be heterogeneous. (See definition of physical time).
Absolute reference point:
In addition to "time standard" and "space standard", we'll
need an absolute reference point. We know that every thing is moving
even those who seem to have stability.
The only way to have an absolute reference point is to take the census
of the universe even of other dimensions (see definition of many
worlds). The map of our world will correspond to the space-time map.
Once we have a map of universe in its multiple dimensions, then and
only then any point can be taken as a reference point.
Conclusion:
Absolute time and absolute space are a creation of our brain, of our
intuition and here the use of the "absolute reference" made the
explanation of this hypothesis very easy.
You have an idea now how clumsy is my explanation and how bad is my
English. But beyond this clumsiness there's an idea I count on your
to catch (true or false doesn't matter) so please keep reading.
CHAPTER I: EFFERVESCENCE PHENOMENON.
EFFERVESCENCE PHENOMENON
Matter is dissolving; it's annihilating. Every particle (or body) is
disintegrating into "ethons". Ethons are the smallest particles in
our hypothesis.
We can compare this phenomenon to an effervescent tablet. Therefore our
hypothesis will be called "the effervescence hypothesis". (Keep in
mind a picture of an effervescent tablet.)
Every particle disintegrates into pre-ethons before these pre-ethons
disintegrate into ethons.
We'll need pre-ethons to explain the elector-weak force and the
strong nuclear force.
Density of ethons around a particle defines its effervescence
characteristics: the general direction of ethons and their intensity
(according to absolute time). This relation between the density of
ethons around a particle and the particle effervescence is not linear.
I don't see difference between density and intensity, perhaps because
my vision is above space-time. Whatever when I use density I am taking
an instant picture, when I use intensity it's a sequence in absolute
time.
EFFERVESCENCE FIELDS:
The effervescence process creates a field of moving ethons. This field
can be visualized as a pattern of circular field lines surrounding the
particle (or body).
The general direction of ethons lines is given according to the density
of ethons out of the particle. The general direction of ethons is from
the highest density to the lowest density.
All space is filled with moving ethons. Note that physical vacuum
doesn't mean emptiness it's filled with ethons and other kinds of
"matter". In our hypothesis we make distinction between physical
vacuum and the "absolute vacuum" in the Euclidean space.
The effervescence of tow particles (or bodies) in an area creates a
third field of ethon which looks like a field created by one particle.
However each particle preserve its own ethon field in this system (a
system includes many particles or bodies).
There are no big complications arising in the many-body cases. (Picture
n=B0).
All properties of a particle are a result of the effervescence
phenomenon. A particle with no effervescence can't be detected, it
have no mass no charge no energy no physical location. (See definitions
of these properties below.)
No detection doesn't mean no existence. (See definition of many
worlds).
It's amazing: what we observe is not matter itself, but its effect on
space-time.
CHAPTER II: NEW CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS
We have here new definitions of the main properties of matter and
physical phenomenon according to the "effervescence phenomenon".
These definitions make it hard to make distinction between all
properties of matter. Every thing seems to be a result of the
"effervescence phenomenon".
WHAT IS TIME
We have one definition of physical time but we find three different
flows of time.
The tow others can be considered as perceptions of time rather than
time itself.
Here is the definition of "main physical time", I call it ambient
time.
The ambient time (or physical time):
The "effervescence hypothesis" defines time in an area as the
amount of ethons flowing per unit of absolute time through this area.
In other words it's the intensity of ethons current, this intensity
defines the effervescence rhythm of a particle in this area.
If we take a picture, time flow in a given area is proportional to the
amount of ethons in this area. Our perception of this time in physical
vacuum is possible only if we put a particle in it, because our
perception of time is based on "atomic time".
Note: "intensity" is from an "absolute time" point of view. You
agree that we can't define physical time according to physical time.
The density of ethons decreases when we go forward the atom nucleus.
Let's suppose that there are three main densities of ethons so three
levels of "physical time" flow. (We choose three to explain the
three fundamental forces: gravity, elector-weak force and strong
nuclear force). The three densities are in:
-The immediate surroundings of nucleus (area of strong nuclear
interaction)
-Inside atoms. (Source of elector-weak interaction).
-Outside atoms. (Area of gravity, but not exclusive area).
The particle time flow:
It's the amount of ethons loosed by a particle per unit of absolute
time. We can call it "particle's life".
It's like an hourglass: lot of loosed ethons means short particle
life, less loosed ethons means long particle life.
The effervescence rhythm of a particle is defined by the density of
ethons around it. And we said that physical time is the density of
ethons. So the particle life is defined by the physical time.
The atomic time: (or conventional time).
Conventional time is defined according to oscillations of specified
transition in Cs-133 atom. We can call it also atomic time.
This time isn't true for subatomic elements. Normal it's based on
atoms. It's the time for mechanic phenomena like clocks, and for
biologic phenomena like humans. In other words all phenomena were atoms
are considered as the basic elements.
Atomic time is based on atom oscillations, so it's based on motion
inside atoms. And we'll see that physical motion is a creation and
redistribution of "physical space-time" so a creation and
redistribution of ethons (see definition of motion).
We'll see that motion is a result of the effervescence.
And we said that the effervescence rhythm (=3D motion) of a particle is
defined by the ethon density out of it, so the particle speed is
defined by the density of ethons out of this particle, so of physical
space-time.
WHAT IS SPACE:
Space is usually defined as a part of the fundamental structure of the
universe, a set of dimensions in which objects are separated and
located, have size and shape, and through which they can move.
Physical space is not continuous, it's made up of particles that we
call ethons.
The distance between tow physical points is the amount of ethons on the
imaginary line between them.
Because ethons are in a perpetual motion the amount of ethon between
tow absolute points is always changing.
We said above that all properties of a particle are the result of its
effervescence. In the physical space the particle itself doesn't
exist. The only thing we can see and measure is its effervescence.
And according to our definition of physical space, the diameter of a
particle is null because ethons are only around the particle.
WHAT IS SPACE-TIME:
We gave distinct definitions to physical time and physical space, and
you've seen that it's hard to make distinction between them.
Let's try now to give a definition of space-time according to the
four-dimensional "absolute reference" (with absolute time and
Euclidean space):
We can visualize Space-time as a sea of ethon's strings in constant
evolution.
The amount of ethons in each string defines at the same time the
physical time duration and the physical length of this string.
Space-time can be seen as a geographic map of ethons (a four
dimensional map in the absolute reference).
WHAT IS MOTION:
Motion occurs when bodies change their position in space with "time."
In our hypothesis we describe motion in an absolute reference:
Motion seen in our four absolute dimensions is an addition of:
-Absolute motion (body changes its position from an absolute point A to
an absolute point B) which is the real motion, even we don't know if
there is real motion.
AND
-Physical motion which is a creation of space and redistribution of
space (we said that physical space is made up of ethons, so it's a
creation of ethons and a redistribution of these ethons with no real
motion.
In other words if we have tow bodies A and B moving from each other. In
fact there is no move it's the amount of ethons between them, which
is changing. It's the physical space between them that is changing.
This definition is neither for continuity nor for discontinuity. The
background of this apparent discontinuity (in our hypothesis) may be a
real continuity or may be a real discontinuity. We're far from giving
the answer.
Whatever, motion remain a miracle for me; I really don't understand
it.
WHAT IS ENERGY:
Energy is effervescence AND effervescence is energy, it's the loss of
ethons by a body, it's a creation of space-time particles (ethons).
If you compare our definition of motion to this definition of energy
you'll find that's hard to make distinction between energy and
motion.
Energy is everywhere.
Zero-energy doesn't exist, we said that all properties of a particle
are a result of its effervescence, a particle without effervescence
can't be detected, and is not located in our =AB world =BB it's in an
other dimension. (See many-worlds definition).
Even physical vacuum is filled of energy (of moving ethons) but it's
hard to detect it when space is devoid of matter.
The concept of energy that common people have can be defined as an
acceleration of the effervescence rhythm of a body (its annihilation)
compared to its effervescence in average conditions.
In other words it's the energy human senses can detect (visible
motion, heat, shape changing...etc). Actually energy (and motion) is
every where every time even at absolute zero degree.
Different bodies have different rhythms of effervescence in same
conditions. These rhythms can be deduced from the ability of this body
to refract, diffract and absorb light and energy.
WHAT'S FORCE:
I'll give a short definition to force, I can't expand it more:
Force is an effervescence modulation inside a system caused by:
An unstable physical system looking for stability
Or a physical system in stability trying to maintain its stability or
to recover it.
Force is simply: The effervescence (rhythm) modulation in order to
reach a stability, to maintain it or to recover it.
Whatever, it's useless to expand this definition. Our vision of force
isn't important to the hypothesis in its all.(stability is relative,
ther's no absolute stability at least in our world)
WHAT'S MASS:
"Mass of physical objects is the amount of matter they contain".
That's the classic definition.
In our hypothesis, the body property we measure and call mass isn't
the amount of matter but the inertia -resistance- of this body to
loose ethons (in other words its effervescence).
Effervescence and by the way mass are not only related to the amount of
matter but are also related to the structure of matter and may be to
its absolute speed.
CHAPTER III: CONFRONTATION WITH THEORY OF RELATIVITY
THE FOUR FUNDAMENTAL FORCES:
The four fundamental forces (as every thing else) are the result of the
effervescence phenomenon, it's the same phenomenon with three
variations according to ethon density variation in an area an | |
