SIMPLER EXPLANATION. “A quantum theory of gravity based on the principles I have put forward could potentially explain the large-scale structure of the universe without having to include any hypothetical dark matter in the model.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

A SOURCE OF GRAVITY. “It is usually assumed that the particle that ‘causes’ gravity is a spin 2 graviton. Here spin 2 means it has 180◦ symmetry, and the requirement for a spin 2 graviton comes from the formalism of general relativity, under the assumption that there is a direct translation from the force to a particle.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

“EINSTEIN agreed with Newton that space had dimension: width, length, and height. Space might be filled with matter, or it might not. But Newton didn’t believe that space was affected by the objects in it. Einstein did.” https://www.amnh.org/explore/videos/space/gravity-making-waves/newton-einstein-gravity#:~:text=Einstein%20did.,calling%20the%20result%20space%2Dtime View in LinkedIn

I am fascinated by ripples and reflections, ephemeral phenomena that are ubiquitous. View in LinkedIn

BASELESS THEORY. “However, there is no direct evidence for a spin 2 graviton, and there is no theoretical reason why the spin 2 effects (essentially tides, but on a very small scale) cannot be obtained from a combination of other particles, such as two particles of spin 1 or four particles of spin 1/2.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

NEW SUBSTITUTION. “It is therefore theoretically possible to base a model of quantum gravity on neutrinos, which are spin 1/2 particles that, as far as direct experiment shows, could have zero mass and travel at the speed of light.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

NEW SOURCE OF GRAVITY. “If neutrinos are indeed responsible for gravity, in the sense that they are the ‘messengers’ sent out by massive objects to attract other objects to them, then we finally have a solution to Newton’s ‘action at a distance’ problem.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

SHAPE-CHANGERS. “Neutrinos appear to ‘oscillate’ between the three types. It is not only the neutrinos that come in three generations, but also the electrons. The other two generations of electron are called the muon and the tau particle.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

MISSING ANTIMATTER. “One of the fundamental processes of radioactivity is the decay of a neutron into a proton and an electron. This process releases energy, and is the basis of the nuclear power industry, but it was discovered early on that up to 60% of the energy goes missing. This missing energy is taken away by a neutrino (technically, an anti-neutrino).” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

RESIDUAL ENERGY. “The energy that is left behind is represented partly by heat, which we can use, and partly by the mass of the electron, which is only about 2/5 of the mass difference between the neutron and the proton. More precisely, the proportion is about .3952.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn
