B06.00001: A Proposed Unification of Neutron Stars and Black Holes, with Implications from the Recent Radius Measurement of PSR J0740$+$6620. Bradford Blake Neutron stars and black holes are surprisingly similar objects. I examine the theory behind the maximal mass of neutron stars, and find unjustified the assumption that additional gravitational collapse of neutron stars creates black holes. Instead, I propose that black holes are created whenever the physical radius of a compact object is smaller than the object's Schwarzschild radius. My calculations indicate that this should happen for compact objects of mass larger than about 5.3 M$_{\mathrm{}}$. I propose that the apparent lack of compact objects between slightly larger than 2 M$_{\mathrm{}}$ and about 5 M$_{\mathrm{}}$ occurs because any such objects would be unstable neutron stars that would therefore shed mass. I will also discuss the recent measurements of the radius of the massive pulsar PSR J0740$+$6620, along with the implications of these measurements on my proposed unification. [Preview Abstract] |

B06.00002: The possibility of presenting the photon as a basis for quantum energy Gh. Saleh, Mohamad Javad Faraji, Robab Rahimpour, Ehsan Dalili In the last years, physics has witnessed some fantastic developments in the field of theoretical physics. Fundamental particles are the building blocks of matter, but Physicists are looking for to find the primary building blocks of universe. We have some reasons that proof we could use photons as the basis of Quantum energy and we will define photon as a primary building block of universe. According to the Einstein's formula, if we have a speed of light (photon) then the mass changes to light (photons). So we could say that the basis of quantum energy is photons. For the next steps we should compare the m-theory with this theory and rewrite the formula based on this theory. [Preview Abstract] |

B06.00003: Experimental Evidence of Discrete Time John Haller Theoretical investigation into the discrete nature of motion leads to a hypothesis that particles move via the discrete Bernoulli process. An artifact of this hypothesis is measurable as noise on the space-time location of a particle. Specifically, the theory suggests: 1) that when $\mathbf{\beta }$ is the probability of stepping to the right and $\mathbf{v}$ is the velocity of the particle, then $\mathbf{2\beta }\mathrm{\mathbf{-1}}\mathbf{=v/c}$ and 2) that a variance of time (measurable as magnitude of jitter on a clock) is proportional to ${\left( \mathbf{v/c} \right)\mathrm{\mathbf{\thinspace }}}^{\mathbf{2}}$. Since no reference frame is given $\mathbf{v/c}$ is deemed absolute and can be measured in a locally stationary laboratory on Earth. Experimental evidence collected from the last 2.5 years shows a combined 16$+$ sigma spike in the Fourier Transform of the magnitude of jitter on an locally stationary atomic clock at the three frequencies$\mathbf{\thinspace 1/day\thinspace and}$ $\mathbf{1/day} \quad \mathbf{\pm 1/year}$. Analysis of the phase and magnitude of the measurement provides further affirmation of the hypothesis by suggesting that Earth's preferred frame is the obvious choice, the Cosmic Microwave Background reference frame.
