Hello All!

I was hoping you could help me.

I have come up with a theory that has a simple postulate and is rooted in logic and reason.

The theory unifies GR and QM in a simple manner.

No need for 30 years of a thousand scientists poking around in n+22 dimensions.

Are there any journals that still publish physics theories with postulates? Are there any journals that won't hold logic and reason against me? I apologize for it up front in the abstract. "I'm sorry for using rebellious logic and reason at the expense of reverent nepotism, mindless regurgitation, silly subterfuge, and pomo politics, but I can't seem to help it. Truth is a stubborn and beautiful thing."

Please do let me know!

All the journals I have looked at seem to only publish irrelelvant insider crap that postulates nothing.

Thanks for assisting this young physicist.

There seem to be many good souls here who shall captain the renaissance that iwill displace string theory's horrendous hoax with logic, reason, truth, and beauty.

"I'm sorry for using rebellious logic and reason at the expense of reverent nepotism, mindless regurgitation, silly subterfuge, and pomo politics, but I can't seem to help it. Truth is a stubborn and beautiful thing."You seem to have a reasonable grasp of the situation.
All the journals I have looked at seem to only publish irrelelvant insider crap that postulates nothing.On this point I am not certain; as, I can seldom get beyond the miasmic obfuscation. If only there was a requirement that calculations, wherever possible, be reduced to geometry, algebra, and simple logic. It is hard to believe that fundamental Nature works with contrived calculus. Imagine if Ockham perused today’s physics’ journals.
Thanks for assisting…the renaissance that will displace string theory's horrendous hoax with logic, reason, truth, and beauty.Can you possibly be discussing pomo physics when you refer to ”logic, reason, truth, and beauty”?

String theory’s speculation concerning the oscillation of discrete manifestations has merit; from there, all reason and logic are discarded.

Membrane theory’s speculation of what it refers to as an “eleventh dimension’s” geometric description has merit; from there, all reason and logic are discarded.

Loop Quantum Gravity’s speculation that space is discrete manifestations has merit; from there, all reason and logic are discarded.

All of these popular theories cling to the conventional forces and paradigms such as the Big Bang, GR and QM that have enjoyed spectacular successes within finely defined limits; however, they are all sorely lacking in fundamental logic and must be discarded before any real advances in fundamental understanding of the physical environment can be understood.

An excellent starting point would be to define a motion that defines an initial quantum unit that remains constant within all reference frames and defines space, time, mathematics, and laws such as orthogonal space and inverse square propagation.

How Can Here Be There? Entanglement united with relativity.
Consider a photon.


As it propagates, it stays the exact same place in time.


Picture two interacting spin 1/2 particles.


As they propagate they stay the exact same place in time.


So it is that measuring one will instaneously affect the other, because
they are in the exact same place!!


Thus relativity and quantum mechanics are united in this.


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. 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. 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. 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.



Rotate the ruler into the fourth dimension, known as the time dimeension, 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. Brian Green & Einstein Support MDT

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=(ct,x1,x2,x3), we can create the velocity 4-vector u=dx/d(tau), where tau is the proper time defined by d(tau)^2=dt^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=c^2 to be c^2(d(tau)/dt))^2 +(dx/d(tau))^2=c^2. This shows that an increase of an object's speed
through space, (dx/d(tau))^2)^(1/2)= 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. 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 ofNorthCarolina, 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=mc^2 arose because whenever matter "surfs" theexpanding time dimension, it appears as energy in the three spatialdimensions.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 travelsthroughspace.



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=mc^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. 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 alsoexpanding, 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 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. 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. Rotations Into 4th Dimension 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. Einstein’s Two Postulates Restated by MDT’s Single Postulate

I. 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. The fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions

How Can Here Be There? Entanglement united with relativity.Consider that there are hyper-relativistic speeds.

Speed exists between the limits imposed by the infinitesimal and the infinite. These speeds are found within all of the most fundamental phenomena . . . and at the greatest Cosmic distances.

Infinity is a function of speed; either its absence or maximum.

Infinity is without dimensions; thus, entanglement (the speed of gravity, the speed of internal oscillations of a Light wave, etc.) is a function of speed near its limits.

Consider a photon.I prefer to consider a Light wave. However, for the moment I will not quibble with semantics . . . only taking issue with the theoretical physicists’ contrived definition of light and photons.

As it propagates, it stays the exact same place in time.Depending upon the observer and reference frame, I could arguably agree. However, to the “photon,” it is another matter.

“Photons” are fundamental functions of seminal motion (http://www.physicsmathforums.com/showthread.php?t=179); and, thus, are closely related to Infinity, (http://www.physicsmathforums.com/showthread.php?t=109) which because of accumulated Time dilation (the time of time), there is much that is counterintuitive.

More will be said about the cyclic etiology of radiant energy in the coming weeks as access to a computer, without time restrictions, is available.

Picture two interacting spin 1/2 particles.

As they propagate they stay the exact same place in time.

So it is that measuring one will instaneously affect the other, because they are in the exact same place!!You have an excellent argument for hyper-relativistic speeds that are fundamental to Pulsoid Theory (http://www.physicsmathforums.com/showthread.php?t=128http://www.physicsmathforums.com/showthread.php?t=128).

There is another interpretation to your analogy that can be seen in the Cosmos. It can be argued that two different galaxies are in two different places and that the motion of either one “instantaneously” affects the other. Thus, it can be argued that the speed of Gravity is near infinite. If the speed of Gravity is near infinite, it can be argued that your “propagating spin ½ particles” are in different places and “communicate” in a similar hyper-relativistic manner as galaxies.

Thus relativity and quantum mechanics are united in this.Two wrongs make a right???

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.I will be posting, shortly, much that you should like concerning Time Dilation and Moving Dimensions.

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.How is the reflected “spherical symmetry of photon propagation” of a single photon explained as a sum of all wave energies in all directions?

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.What is the “fourth dimension” that is expanding? What is the “clock” that measures the “phenomena that emerges”?

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.How does this expansion end or recycle?

2. It’s As Simple As a Photon’s Spherically Symmetric WavefrontIs it possible that the actual curve of the “Symmetric Wavefront” is elliptical?

3. 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.It is difficult to equate conservation with something that does not cycle. Something that travels with a constant velocity would seem to be incompatible with conservation. I know of nothing constant except maybe Newton’s inertia; and, he had no idea what he was defining. There is no motion that I can imagine that doesn’t have a component of acceleration.

It is acceleration that underlies Time Dilation (the time of time) that would seem to be the key to understanding the perpetuity (cycling) of the Universe.

And underlying the conservation principles is the fact that the fourth dimension is expanding relative to the three spatial dimensions.How is “the fourth dimension” defined?

4. Brian Green & Einstein Support MDT

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=(ct,x1,x2,x3), we can create the velocity 4-vector u=dx/d(tau), where tau is the proper time defined by d(tau)^2=dt^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=c^2 to be c^2(d(tau)/dt))^2 +(dx/d(tau))^2=c^2. This shows that an increase of an object's speed
through space, (dx/d(tau))^2)^(1/2)= 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.”These equations are meaningless until fundamental, intrinsic Time and its “clock” are defined.

In a flash I saw that that is why photons never age—Will this explanation hold and MDT be as descriptively effective if energy is thought of as “pulsing” waves rather than “photons”?

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 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.You would probably also “reel in shock and horror at a perfectly obvious postulate” if you were aware that such a postulate would end thousands of grants and obsolete the foundations that you have built your career upon.

The purpose of physics has ever been to unify diverse physical phenomena with simple postulates, laws, and formulas reflecting the deeper physical reality.I would like to add that simplicity should be a goal not only because it is at the heart of “the deeper physical reality”; but, that said simplicity should be such that years of training are not required for the layman to understand the environment so as to maximize happiness.

Dear anyone interested in helping me

I have also been trying to publish my work. As well as an equation for finding the nth prime number I have developed a TOE.

My Theory of Everything by P. Barnett

Einstein predicted that the curvature of spacetime is the effect of the gravitational force. So why can’t the other forces be the curvature of other dimensions?

At first thought this seems preposterous – what physical effects show any evidence for this? But most discoveries are only found when we start looking for evidence that we would not have found without a theory first being in place.
With the recent discovery of small variations in satellite speed due to the curvature of spacetime, there is some hope that this may be a method for (dis)proving my theory.

Other questions to ponder:

Why do the forces have their relative strengths over differing distances?
This could relate to the curvature of differing dimensions. The stronger the force over a small distance – the more curled up the dimension.

Why four forces? (or 5 if you count the dark force!)
There could be an infinite number of dimensions, I have seen a mathematical proof of this! It’s just that there is no way of seeing such small effects presently.

Why do elementary particles come in families of three?
Supersymmetry theory has shown us that many things are simpler than we originally think for instance String Theory and then M-Theory simplify the Standard Model of unknowns residing within the nucleus and quarks. Why can’t there just be a single elementary particle, which along with neutrinos and dark matter make up the fabric of the universe?

Big Bang to Big Crunch? Or forever balancing.
Everything with a beginning has an end right? Not in mathematics (irrationals), but in physics probably…
In the big scale of time (or should I say change with time starting with the Big Bang) our universe being created and destroyed is insignificant. Other places could have completely different rules of nature and more or less forces/dimensions.

The sad fact is that if it is true then the effects we see are simply a manifestation of the geography of the universe and Waldo was right that the theory of everything is so completely general that it is useless in everyday life.

Dear anyone interested in helping meNot certain if you will consider this as help . . .

Einstein predicted that the curvature of spacetime is the effect of the gravitational force. So why can’t the other forces be the curvature of other dimensions?There is no such thing as “spacetime” as described in GR. There is only one force to describe, which is fundamentally comprised of hyper-relativistic motion.

Space (either Dyosphere (http://www.Dyosphere.com) or orthogonalness) and time (http://www.CQthus.com/PT/Time) are entirely different concepts; and physics can define neither.

Physics cannot even define force in a clear manner that is reconcilable with each definition. The standard model fores are all metaphysical.

And, in fact, dimensions are poorly understood, if at all, and they are defined circularly without any regard for preciseness, order, or priority. Thus, it is ludicrous to state: “why can’t the other forces be the curvature of other dimensions?”

Why do the forces have their relative strengths over differing distances?This relates to several different causes; however, the relative strengths are mostly attributable to the fact that physicists do not understand the relationship of “their forces” to one another. The best they can do is state that there are generally “about” three to five (depending upon your sect), ill-defined (metaphysical) forces that are implied to be somewhat equal in their morphology, which they are not.

This could relate to the curvature of differing dimensions. The stronger the force over a small distance – the more curled up the dimension.Despite the strung-out minds of string theorists, there are no such things as a “curled up...dimension.”

Why four forces?... There could be an infinite number of dimensions, I have seen a mathematical proof of this! It’s just that there is no way of seeing such small effects presently.There is no limit to the number of dimensions (http://www.CQthus.com/PT/D). Ten or so are rather easy, relatively, to observe.

Why do elementary particles come in families of three?It has to do with the three major resonances (Resoloids (http://www.Resoloid.com)) within Emergent Ellipsoids (http://www.EmergentEllipse.com), which are each in four quadrants which accounts for the magic SUSY number of 12. See: Pulsoid Theory (http://www.CQthus.com/PT/PTis).

Supersymmetry theory has shown us that many things are simpler than we originally think for instance String Theory and then M-Theory simplify the Standard Model of unknowns residing within the nucleus and quarks. Why can’t there just be a single elementary particle, which along with neutrinos and dark matter make up the fabric of the universe?The simple elementary particle is the Pulsoid (http://www.CQthus.com/PT/P) of Pulsoid Theory (http://www.PulsoidTheory.com).

Big Bang to Big Crunch? Or forever balancing.It is perpetual. See: Equilibrium Theory of Reality. (http://www.CQthus.com/PT/ETR)

Everything with a beginning has an end right? Not in mathematics (irrationals), but in physics probably…The Universe has no beginning or end. It can be said to be the “flip side” or “inverse” of a singularity, which is symbolized by Infinity (http://www.CQthus.com/PT/I), or Oneness (http://www.CQthus.com/PT/Onep).

In the big scale of time (or should I say change with time starting with the Big Bang) our universe being created and destroyed is insignificant. Other places could have completely different rules of nature and more or less forces/dimensions.No.

The sad fact is that if it is true then the effects we see are simply a manifestation of the geography of the universe…Yes. I prefer geometry to geography.

…Waldo was right that the theory of everything is so completely general that it is useless in everyday life.”Waldo” couldn’t be more wrong!!!

Show the work. Get it published and proofed.

The whole deal is quite simply this. Everyone wants to solve the grand unified theory of everything because it's a millenium problem, there is a million dollar prize. [see claymath.org and yang-mills conjecture]

My stance on this is I have seen 50 dozen hacks and attempts at the problem, which *isn't easy* to identify exactly *what* the problem is.

But I do know one thing: it involves renormalization. Which is this: rewrite every single QCD function as a QED function and show your theory does not fail with measured experiment. It also involves discovering and proving a fundamental constant of physics that may or may not be known.

There have been many many papers to check references for since 1954...
