  • The Infinite Tree & The Rivers of Time
    Marc Garner
    Somewhere near the heart of existence, shimmers the ethereal beauty of the mystery of Time. Though seemingly familiar to us all, time harbours secrets that penetrate the very deepest levels of reality, and though we feel certain in our conviction that we’re swept forth upon the crest of its never-ending flow, with Einstein’s discovery of relativity came what is perhaps the most...

  • Adiabatic Thermodynamics of Fluids
    Christian Fronsdal
    Unlike the traditional approach to thermodynamics, this book begins with a brief exposition of hydrodynamics. At this stage, the development is limited to potential flows, because, until recently, that is all that could be done, but also for didactic reasons. However, the reader will find that the situation has changed radically with the discovery of Conservative Hydrodynamics....

  • Derivation of Newton’s Law of Gravitation
    Balungi Francis
    In Newton’s view, all objects exert a force that attracts other objects. That universal law of gravitation worked pretty well for predicting the motion of planets as well as objects on Earth and it’s still used, for example, when making the calculations for a rocket launch. But unfortunately it cannot be derived from first principles.While Newton was able to formulate his law o...

  • The Origin of Gravity and the Laws of Physics
    Balungi Francis
    Since it was developed, Newton’s law of gravitation and many other laws of physics cannot be derived from one grand underlying principle. Deriving Newton’s law of gravitation or Einstein general relativity theory, would mean that gravity emerges from something else and that would mean that the only known Newton’s law of universal gravity is no longer a fundamental law of physic...

  • An Eventful Journey to Unification of All the Fundamental Forces
    Robert Delbourgo
    During the last years of his life Einstein tried unsuccessfully to unify electromagnetic force with gravitational force geometrically. The nearest he got was through the ideas of Kaluza and Klein who appended a tiny fifth commuting coordinate to spacetime. Researchers have followed in those footsteps by adding at least six more such minuscule coordinates so as to incorporate th...
