Finding the graviton

One of the biggest problems in theoretical cosmology is understanding why we have been unable to observe the Graviton or the quantum of gravitational force.  Some have attributed this to the fact that its interaction with matter is not strong enough to be detected by modern instrumentation. However the reason may be because gravity is … Read more

The causality of motion

According to Newton’s view, force does not the cause motion but only a change in it and because a freely moving object continues to move inertia and motion in itself needs no causal explanation. However as Gao, Shan points out in on page 29 of his book “God Does Play Dice with the Universe” there … Read more

The illusion that is time.

Does time have a physical existence?  If it does why are we not able point to it and say there it is?  If it does not why do physicists define our universe in terms of its physical properties? This question is relevant because Einstein theories, the foundation of modern cosmology are based on the physical … Read more

Is time eternal?

Is time an eternity or does it have a beginning and end? This question is very difficult to answer because current theories are only able to describe what happened after the beginning of our universe.  In other words how the universe came about and whether there is any meaning to a “before” or “after” is … Read more

Linking gravitational and electrical forces

Richard Feynman on pages 24 and 25 of his book “The Character of Physical Laws” describes how both gravitational and electrical forces are linked in terms of a common relationship with respect to the inverse square law. “The inverse square law appears again in the electrical laws, for instance, electricity also exerts forces inversely as … Read more
