Deriving mass without the Higgs Boson

Einstein told us that energy and mass are interchangeable however he did not define what mass is.  He only told us how mass interacts with space-time. As Steven Weinberg said “Mass tells space-time how to curve while space-time tells mass how to move”. However Einstein’s inability to define or derive the casualty of mass is … Read more

Putting the Chromo in Quantum Chromodynamics

Quantum Chromodynamics, which is an integral part of the Standard Model of Particle Physics, defines how quarks interact with themselves and each other to form particles such as protons and neutrons. The word quantum stands for the fact that interactions (forces between particles) on this level can be represented as things that occur only in … Read more

The geometry of Quantum Mechanics

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

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
