On Certain Conceptual Anomalies in Einstein’s Theory of Relativity

On Certain Conceptual Anomalies in Einstein’s Theory of Relativity

Zitat 

There are a number of conceptual anomalies occurring in the Standard exposition of Einstein’s Theory of Relativity. These anomalies relate to issues in both mathematics and in physics and penetrate to the very heart of Einstein’s theory. This paper reveals and amplifies a few such anomalies, including the fact that Einstein’s field equations for the so-called static vacuum configuration, R?? = 0, violates his Principle of Equivalence, and is therefore erroneous. This has a direct bearing on the usual concept of conservation of energy for the gravitational field and the conventional formulation for localisation of energy using Einstein’s pseudo-tensor. Misconceptions as to the relationship between Minkowski spacetime and Special Relativity are also discussed, along with their relationships to the pseudo-Riemannian metric manifold of Einstein’s gravitational field, and their fundamental geometric structures pertaining to spherical symmetry.

The Vacuum and Special Relativity Theory

The Vacuum and Special Relativity Theory. 
Israel Sadovnik

Zitat:

Special Relativity Theory examines the behaviour of a quantum of light in the vacuum.

1)The First law of SRT – the speed of a quantum of light in vacuo has a maximal magnitude (constant, absolute) of (c=1) .
2)SRT is not considered a gravitational field. For this reason, Einstein created General Relativity Theory in 1915. The field in which there is no gravitation is a vacuum.
3)This asserts that action in SRT occurs witho particles in negative four-dimensional (Minkowski) space. This space is absolute.

39 Questionable Assumptions in Modern Physics

39 Questionable Assumptions in Modern Physics
by Greg Volk, 1153 Tiffany Circle N, Eagan, MN 55123, Phone: (651) 452-5827

Zitat: 

Abstract. The growing body of anomalies in new energy, low energy nuclear reactions, astrophysics, atomic physics, and entanglement, combined with the failure of the Standard Model and string theory to predict many of the most basic fundamental phenomena, all point to a need for major new paradigms. Not Band-Aids, but revolutionary new ways of conceptualizing physics, in the spirit of Thomas Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions. This paper identifies a number of long-held, but unproven assumptions currently being challenged by an increasing number of alternative scientists. Two common themes, both with venerable histories, keep recurring in the many alternative theories being proposed: (1) Mach’s Principle, and (2) toroidal, vortex particles. Matter-based Mach’s Principle differs from both space-based universal frames and observer-based Einsteinian relativity. Toroidal particles, in addition to explaining electron spin and the fundamental constants, satisfy the basic requirement of Gauss’s misunderstood B Law, that motion itself circulates. Though a comprehensive theory is beyond the scope of this paper, it will suggest alternatives to the long list of assumptions in context.

New Physics with Yoon’s Universal Atomic Model

New Physics with Yoon’s Universal Atomic Model

Zitat:

Flaws of Today’s Physics:
– Today’s physics says that the proton nucleus has an orbital electron which moves up and down by commuting its energy between potential and kinetic energy in the positive nuclear field, a simulation of the projectile mechanics of a thrown stone in the gravitational field of the earth, changing its kinetic energy into potential energy. However, this is a primitive idea.

– The orbital electron in the old atomic models such as quantum oscillators has to move in a discrete manner from orbits to orbits with different energy level, emitting corpuscular photons. However, this is an unrealistic idea. Mass particles cannot move by a discrete manner in the real space of nature. Quantum jump between orbits in the quantum Theory should not a discontinuous motion but a fast motion that also has to have a moving path. Discontinuous motion of a mass means that a particle disappears suddenly at a place and then reappears at some other place. This can exist only in fairy or magic tales.

Mathematics

The prevailing view is that physics is a mathematical science. While the abstractions of mathematical physics are no doubt impressive, they are often based on woefully inadequate, simplistic and contradictory theories. This lack is nowhere more evident than in the fundamental logical principles of mathematics itself.

Consider the principle of non-contradiction, „A thing cannot both be and not be“ which unfortunately, is contradicted in the roots of every quadratic equation. This is followed by the syllogistic tautology of the principle of excluded middle. While it can be excused in language where subjects and objects are understood to bear resemblances and dissimilarities, it appears rather distressing in a discipline noted for its precision to state that [a] is somewhat like [b] which bears a resemblance to [c], et cetera. Let us also not forget that a subject that is overwhelmingly quantitative does not in its principles admit to quantity! Nor is it implied.

While these considerations are not particularly important to its practitioners, they are very significant in any subject whose title bears the word „theoretical“. To remedy this lack, I would like to propose a new set of principles for mathematics and for logic in general.

Schwarzschild solution and its implications for gravitational waves

Am 12. März 2009 erhielt ich von Stephen Crothers, Queensland Australien, folgende zwei Dateien (conference papers) mit E-Mail zugesandt. Diese betreffen einen Vortrag von Stephen Crothers bei der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft, München, März 2009, Fachverband Gravitation und Relativitätstheorie. Diese beiden Dateien habe ich inzwischen auf meine Server gegen habe, siehe:

http://www.ekkehard-friebe.de/DPS-paper.pdf  und  http://www.ekkehard-friebe.de/DPS-ppt.pdf  

Nachstehend bringe ich Auszüge hieraus.

The Schwarzschild solution and its implications for gravitational waves
Stephen J. Crothers

2 November 2008 

The so-called ‚Schwarzschild solution‘ is not Schwarzschild’s solution, but a corruption, due to David Hilbert (December 1916), of the Schwarzschild/Droste solution, wherein m is allegedly the mass of the source of a gravitational field and the quantity r is alleged to be able to go down to zero (although no proof of this claim has ever been advanced), so that there are two alleged ’singularities‘, one at r=2m and another at r=0.

Gotthard Barth: Has The World Been Deceived?

Die in diesem Blog am 15. April 2009 gebrachte Arbeit: 
“Wurde die Welt betrogen?” (1987) von Gotthard Barth
ist in den USA bereits im Jahre 1989 in englischer Sprache veröffentlicht worden:
Gotthard Barth: Has The World Been Deceived?

Quelle: „raum&zeit“, Vol. 1, No. 1, April-May 1989, pp. 66 – 70, San Clemente, CA 92672

Nachstehend bringe ich hieraus einen Auszug.

Zitat:

With pride prancing down the street eyes transfixed (according to Aristophanes „The Clouds“) the sophist Socrates explains to the crowd gathered that Zeus is not bringing rain but the clouds. „Have you ever seen it rain without clouds in the sky. Otherwise, it would rain on a clear day when the clouds have taken leave of absence.“ The farmer Strepsiades is more than thankful for this insight. „By Apollo, you have proven your point, even I was under the firm impression that Zeus was relieving himself.“

Science was never at a loss for astounding ideas. So we should not be surprised that such an obtuse theory as Einstein’s made it into the physics textbooks. A shake-out-of-the-box organism stays young. „This is an undeniable consequence of principles laid out before us, forced on us by experience,“ declared Einstein in Zürich in 1912. The year before the Frenchman Langevin had invented the twins of relativity. Since that date, the two, Bloggs and Jones, are arguing who remains young after space travel at the speed of light and who will have died. According to relativity logic, both are at the same age and are long dead.

THE PROPAGATION VELOCITY OF GRAVITY

In meinem Beitrag Dokumentarfilm-Projekt: ‚Einstein Wrong‘ vom 12.April 2009 nannte ich David de Hilster als Kontaktperson.

Der Informationsaustausch mit Hilster hat sich schon seit einiger Zeit sehr positiv entwickelt. So schrieb zum Beispiel Dr. Walter Rella von der Gesellschaft zur Förderung der wissenschaftlichen Physik e.V. (GFWP) in einer E-Mail vom 5. April 2009 an Hilster mit dem Betreff: „Translation Paul Gerber, Annalen der Physik, Vol. 52, 415 – 444 (1917)“ (Zitat): 

„Dear David deHilster, 
I wished to post the just finished translation below of Paul Gerbers paper to my profile and/or to the NPA database.
Would you please be kind enough to do that, because I was unable. 
Thank you so much! Best regards.
Walter Rella“ 

Und schon am gleichen Tage antwortete David de Hilster mit E-Mail wie folgt (Zitat): 

„Walter!
Great!  Many people will be interested in this.
Here is Paul Gerber’s profile and your translation of his paper:

Einstein Wrong

Ich nehme Bezug auf den Beitrag „Einstein Wrong – The Miracle Year“ vom 31. März 2009 in diesem Blog. Hierzu erhielt ich nun von Direktor David de Hilster den folgenden newsletter vom 10.April 2009 unter dem Betreff: „Finishing Funds There, but We Still Need Your Help!“

Nachstehend bringe ich Textauszüge aus diesem newsletter: 

Zitate:

We’re Getting There! 

Thanks to scientists and project supporters from around the world, Einstein Wrong – The Miracle Year now has enough pledges from investors to finish the final cut including original music and graphics. Contributions have ranged from $1000 – $25,000. 

Although we have surpassed our finishing funding level, we are only at 57% of full funding and still need 43% to pay for publicity, film festivals, and awards qualifications.

Einstein’s 1905 Speed/velocity of Light errors

Einstein’s 1905 Speed/velocity of Light errors
by Roger J. Anderton (Copyright: R.J.Anderton 2009)

Zitat: 

Einstein made too many mistakes that it’s difficult to deal with them all; this paper is just dealing with some of the errors he made with lightspeed in his 1905 paper on Special relativity.

Hans Ohanian [1] seems to be an Einstein apologist – he admits that Einstein made lots of mistakes, but tries to justify it as despite the mistakes in his derivations; Einstein still comes up with the correct answers. Ohanian might think that, but anyone else reading the numerous mistakes made by Einstein just find themselves swamped under a mountain of those mistakes, making the conclusions definitely ambiguous if not wrong. So Ohanian is trying to just excuse the inexcusable.

Anyway, Ohanian is an Einstein supporter and it is rare to have anyone admit from the Einstein supporter group that Einstein made mistakes. So, there might be progress in that group that all do not believe Einstein perfect, and some attempt might now be made to correct those mistakes.
