Both Einstein’s General and Special Theories of Relativity define macroscopic properties of energy/mass in terms of the continuous properties of four dimensional space-time while quantum mechanics defines its microscopic properties in terms of the discontinuous properties of three-dimensional space. However finding a way of conceptually integrating them has proven to be extremely difficult for two … Read more
Is our universe made up of particles or fields? On the one hand quantum physics tells that the universe is made up of discrete units of energy/mass while relativistic physics tells us it is composed of a continuous field of space-time Unfortunately these two ideas do not work well together because a continuous field by … Read more
We have shown throughout this blog and its companion book “The Reality of the Fourth *Spatial* Dimension” there would be many theoretically advantages to defining the universe in terms of four *spatial* dimensions instead of four-dimensional space-time. One is that it would allow for the integration of the quantum mechanical and wave properties of energy/mass … Read more
We have shown throughout this blog and its companion book “The Reality of the Fourth *Spatial* Dimension” observations of our environment suggest the universe is composed of four *spatial* dimensions rather than four-dimensional space-time as is suggested by Einstein’s theories. The recent discovery of Dark Energy is one of those observations. As Alexey Vikhlinin of the … Read more
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
