NONLOCAL FOAM. “The scheme also provides a rationale for why inflation lasted only briefly (say, ∼ 10(−33) sec.) as the turbulent phase was quickly terminated due to the nonlocal (extended) property of the quanta of spacetime foam.” https://lnkd.in/eA85pA5X View in LinkedIn

THE ISSUE OF SCALE. “As the scale changes, the relative importance of the different forces changes. There are two ways the scale-change can be measured. One way is directly in terms of distance and time, and the other way is indirectly in terms of speed and energy.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

CONSEQUENCES. “It is also natural in that inflation was inevitable as turbulence set off by the Planckian dynamics was inevitable in the early Universe.” https://lnkd.in/eA85pA5X View in LinkedIn

THE DOGMA. “There are four recognised forces of nature, namely gravity, electromagnetism, the weak nuclear force (responsible for radioactivity) and the strong nuclear force (responsible for holding the nucleus of an atom together), in order from large to small scale.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

OCCAM’S RAZOR. “One attractive feature of our present proposal is that the scheme is very economical, involving no arbitrary or fine-tuned parameters.” https://lnkd.in/eA85pA5X View in LinkedIn

QUANTUM VS CLASSICAL. “But this begs the question of how spacetime on the scale of elementary particles relates to spacetime on the human scale.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

NEW SUBSTITUTION. “It is therefore desirable, if possible, to devise a more general theory that does not assume the equivalence principle.” https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

FRAGMENT FROM NATURE continues from last weekend and concludes this weekend on a remarkable paper by an Emeritus Professor of mathematics on a bold explanation for a new theory of physics that redefines spin and mass and does away with dark matter. Modern physics is about provocative fresh ideas, and this is certainly one of those. https://lnkd.in/e-atRRat View in LinkedIn

SOME BASICS. “Is mass quantized? So first: Mass is a type of energy. Not all energy is mass. This is a common logical jump and is simply not correct. Energy (nor frequency) is not quantized in general and therefore mass is not quantized.” https://lnkd.in/eT8XSyRv View in LinkedIn
