Why four spatial dimensions?

We have shown throughout this blog and its companion book “The Reality of the Fourth *Spatial* Dimension” there would be several theoretical advantages to defining the universe in term of four *spatial* dimensions instead of four-dimensional space-time. For example, it would enable physicists to define a theoretical model that could explain and predict the uncertainty … Read more

What is Physics about?

Most will agree the goal of Physics is to define the laws of nature and provide an understanding of the why they translate to the universe we know. However, there may be some disagreement on how to approach it. For example, a classical approach would be to observe how matter and energy interact with our … Read more

An alternative to a singularity?

Many physicists assume based on the General Theory of Relativity the mass of larger stars that have used up their nuclear fuel will implode to form a singularity or black hole.  (A singularity is defined as region of space in which mass is concentrated in a one-dimensional point in space and whose gravitational field is … Read more

Incorporating electromagnetism into General and Spatial Relativity

Einstein, in his theory of relativity derived the force of gravity in terms of the geometry of space and time.  Unfortunately he was unable describe the other forces in nature, above all the force of electromagnetism, in same terms, as was documented by the American Institute of Physics. “From before 1920 until his death in … Read more
