D2.00001: On the Importance of Physical Laws and the Scientific Method Pierre-Marie Robitaille At the end of the 19$^{th}$ century, Langley assumed that the Sun was a blackbody and utilized the principles of thermal radiation to deduce a temperature of $\sim $6,000 K for the solar photosphere. Yet, Kirchhoff's Law of Thermal Emission requires thermal equilibrium with an enclosure in order to ascertain a valid temperature. The Sun cannot meet this requirement. Nonetheless, Langley's estimate remains the accepted temperature of the solar photosphere. Similarly, in 1965, Penzias and Wilson set a source temperature of $\sim $3 K using a signal of unknown origin. The thermal nature of this signal would eventually be affirmed. However, the source of this signal cannot be in thermal equilibrium with an enclosure. Therefore, setting a real temperature in this setting also constitutes a violation of thermodynamics. Planck has warned that objects with convection currents cannot be treated as blackbodies. Both the photosphere and the oceans of the Earth sustain convection currents. Proper scientific method requires that the laws of physics, established in the laboratory, be observed. It is also improper to utilize laws experimentally verified only in the solid and apply them to other states of matter. The belief that blackbody radiation is universal is invalid as previously discussed. [Preview Abstract] |

D2.00002: Einstein's Math Errors Profoundly Affects Mathematical and Physical Theory David Pressler Einstein treats time as a vector, however time is a scalar. Vectors possess both magnitude and direction. To mathematically equate time with direction is a Fallacy of Ambiguity. It is physically impossible to have space with more than three directions. Any theory where time is represented as a forth direction does not represent reality, i.e., (x, y, z, t). The entire math used in the Special and General Theories of Relativity is meaningless, unreasonable and ambiguous. \textbf{Second}. Einstein defines the speed of light as a constant, in the equation c = d (distance)/t (time). In this direct proportion, c being the constant, change one factor and the other must change as well. Einstein changes the time factor in this formula when time slows down but he does not change the distance factor. In reality, time slows down when space contracts in all three directions or in the system of Cartesian coordinates (x, y, z,) being length, width, and height. The author defines this contraction as C-Space. Pressler's Law of C-Space: The speed of light will always be measured as a constant, c, in all three directions, in ones own inertial reference frame and the speed of light will always be measured to be different in all other inertial reference frames which are at a different gravity or kinetic energy levels. Time is defined as the rate of physical process; how fast things take place. Gravity is the distortion of space in all three directions, c-space. [Preview Abstract] |

D2.00003: Dark Side of Black Hole Theories Sunil Thakur Mystery of black hole originates from some very complex mathematics of the theory of relativity. Current theory of black holes has several inherent contradictions. Black holes have temperature and our current understanding of the radiation laws suggest that a body with temperature must emit radiation. One of the features of black holes is that density of the black hole decreases as the mass increases. Mathematics cannot be used to justify a practically untenable theory. Volume remaining constant, increase in mass must lead to increase in density. Constancy of the speed of light still needs to be conclusively established. We have been able to reduce the speed of the light to as low as 38 miles per and also in excess of the 3 lakh meters per second. These experiments suggest that temperature affect speed of light. Huge variations in the temperatures do exist in the universe. These anomalies need to be resolved in any theory on black holes. This paper suggests that black holes are created when components of the atoms get separated and mass of the proton, electron, and neutron gets concentrated in separate regions. This observation is supported by our observations of existence of black holes, neutron stars, and white dwarfs in close proximity. Existence of matter devoid of energy creates high-energy zone or accretion disk around the black hole. Gravitational pull is exerted by the accretion disk that attracts light towards it resulting in formation of light cones resulting in illusion of clusters of stars near the site of the black holes.

D2.00004: In The Light of The Dark Matter Sunil Thakur Recent successful mapping of dark matter has clearly brought out some important facts about the dark matter and raises several important questions but a careful analysis also allows us to resolve numerous unresolved issues of physics. We need to explain how the expansion of universe affects distribution of dark matter and dark energy. All the experiments have shown that predictions of Newton's law of gravitation and theory of relativity hold good even though these theories do not take presence of dark matter and dark energy into account. We need to resolve this anomaly. This paper suggests that dark matter constitutes Higgs Field. Difference in the age of the dark matter suggest that universe was not created with 96{\%} of the imperceptible matter or in other words universe was not created with just 4{\%} perceptible matter. Only mechanism through which we can resolve this issue is by conversion of perceptible matter into imperceptible matter. Energy absorbed by the Higgs field gets converted to Higgs particles resulting in its expansion. Expanse of the Higgs field is the expanse of our universe. Almost homogenous distribution of Higgs field cancels the gravitational pull exerted by it except in the regions where Higgs field gets distorted due to presence of substance and energy as theorized by the Einstein. This theory resolves some long-standing unresolved issues like loss of energy, wave-particle duality, expansion of universe, and unification of four fundamental forces. [Preview Abstract] |
