Compton scattering: A Classical approach

Compton scattering is a type of scattering that X-rays and gamma rays undergo in matter.  The inelastic scattering of photons in matter results in a decrease in energy (increase in wavelength) of an X-ray or gamma ray photon, called the Compton Effect.  Part of the energy of the X/gamma ray is transferred to a scattering … Read more

Dark Matter and the Evolution of the universe

We have shown throughout this blog and its companion book "The Reality of the Fourth Spatial Dimension" there are many theoretical advantages to defining the universe in terms of four *spatial* dimensions instead of four-dimensional space-time and Dark matter or a continuous non-quantized field of energy/mass. One is that it would allow one to quantifiably … Read more

Resolving the conflict between the photoelectric effect and Maxwell’s wave theory of light

We have shown throughout this blog and its companion book “The Reality of the Fourth Spatial Dimension” there are numerous theoretical advantages to assuming the existence of four *spatial* dimensions instead of four-dimensional space-time. The ability to define a mechanism which can resolve the conflict between Maxwell’s classical wave theory of light and the quantization … Read more
