In this paper, we will review classical electrodynamics, where our main concern will be exclusively the propagation of electromagnetic waves in the vacuum and the interaction of these waves with free charges. We will examine the reasons why the classical Maxwell's equations are not complete and consistent. We will show that there are three kinds of waves propagating in the vacuum, namely, transverse waves, longitudinal waves, and helicoidal waves. We will particularly review the theoretical and experimental aspects of longitudinal waves whose existence seems to be proven.

The emission, propagation, and reflection of light as mechanical phenomena are based on the behavior of balls, at the limit when their mass is zero, emitted by a balls source and reflected by a rigid wall in an elastic collision. Light as a wave or particle is a massless entity. Therefore, applying the kinematics behavior of the massless balls to light is natural. Consequently, the kinematics of light depends on its kinetics of electromagnetic nature and its kinematics of mechanical nature in interactions with the matter as emission and reflection. By applying the emission, propagation, and reflection of light as mechanical phenomena in a vacuum of the frame at absolute rest, this study derives the velocities of a wavefront of light reflected by a fixed and moving mirror when the light comes from a fixed and moving source. The derived velocities apply to the modified Michelson interferometer, employed independently by Tomaschek and Miller in their experiments.

This paper shows how the miscalculated result of an experiment caused the birth of the theory of relativity. It reveals the error made by Michelson in his calculations to obtain the result of the experiment he performed with Morley, which was designed to detect the speed of the earth relative to ether. Thus, Michelson anticipated observing an outcome that understandably would not occur. This paper shows the correct calculations, proving that the very experiment that led to the invention of the theory of relativity can in fact be a proof that the theory is wrong. It also shows that as far as the existence of ether is concerned, the Michelson‐Morley experiment is irrelevant.

In experimental and theoretical physics, we measure time as the duration of material changes that run into space. We have no scientific evidence that would be based on the elementary perception and would prove that clocks run in some physical time. Universal space is time-invariant, in the sense that time is not its fourth dimension. In time-invariant space, motion happens only in space and not in time. Time as duration enters existence as an emergent physical quantity and is the result of the observer's measurement. Linear time “past-present-future” is psychological time that runs only in the brain. Universal change runs in time-invariant space, in this sense the universe is timeless. Temporal cognition occurs in the frame of psychological time, and timeless cognition occurs without the impact of psychological time.

The theory of the dynamic medium of reference (DMR) has already been presented in several articles, in particular, Pignard [Phys. Essays 32, 422 (2019]. The objective of this article is to present gravitational waves within the framework of the DMR theory. For this, an important relation is established between the gravitational potential and the speed of the flux of the medium. This relation makes it possible to deduce two differential equations verified by the speed of the flux of the medium, one relating to the stationary part and the other to the variational part, which corresponds to gravitational waves. Solving these two equations provides the speed of the total flux of the medium. An application of the found formulas is carried out to a binary system, and the link with the metric tensor and the fundamental quadratic form of general relativity is established. Finally, in the DMR theory, gravitational waves are waves that propagate through the medium at the speed of light, not ripples of space-time.

The general theory of relativity (GTR) has proved to accurately describe all gravitational aspects of our universe. This theory was developed by Einstein under the premises of the principle of equivalence to describe the behavior of inertial systems in accelerated reference frames, but the physical basis for the principle of equivalence and for the existence of accelerated reference frames remains to be understood. Here, we postulate that the principle of equivalence could be explained in terms of an accelerated flow of space toward the origin of the gravitational field, which would explain the accelerated reference frames. We provide evidence that the gravitational constant predicts the observed increase in the Hubble constant from early to late universe. This suggests that gravity and accelerated expansion of the universe could derive from the same physical principle depending on the mass density operating in each process. Mass-induced accelerated space expansion through a hypothetical fourth spatial dimension could explain the curvature of spacetime. It would be the projection of the expanded space to our three-dimensional universe what would lead to relativistic gravitational effects such as time dilation, redshift, and black hole formation. Therefore, a gravitational theory can be envisioned, halfway between classical mechanics and GTR.

The most accurate LLR (lunar laser ranging) initiative, named APOLLO (apache point observatory lunar laser-ranging operation) demonstrated millimeter-range positional accuracy in 2009, thus improving LLR by one order-of-magnitude. Since, LLR is a foundational technique in studying gravity, Murphy (principal investigator of APOLLO) stated in 2009, that with this millimeter-range accuracy, the simulation model has been found to be the limiting-factor in extracting the theoretical science results, and hence, we should: (1) develop the science case and expand our ability to model LLR for a new regime of high precision, (2) develop the theoretical tools for honing the science case for submillimeter LLR, and (3) explore which model/code is worth putting our efforts into. (4) Since millimeter-quality data are a recent development, the model effort lags. (5) Finally, we will code-in new physics so that we may simulate sensitivities. In connection with simulation model/code, Murphy stated in 2013, that among the four available LLR simulation models: JPL (jet propulsion laboratory), CfA (the Harvard-Smithsonian center for astrophysics), LU (leibniz University, Hannover, Germany), and IMCCE (Institut de Mecanique celeste et de calcul des Ephemerides, France), the JPL model currently produces weighted RMS (root-mean-square) residuals at ∼18 mm, which is about half of the other models; so, clearly a gap exists from millimeter ranging-precision of APOLLO. Hence, the CfA, LU, and IMCCE are engaged, since 2013, in a stepwise comparative streamlining effort to identify the model-differences, errors, and shortcomings. All the four available LLR simulation models can be classified as GR (general relativity)-astronomers model; they are basically similar. Professor Douglas Currie of the University of Maryland, College Park, NASA Lunar Science Institute, stated in a Conference presentation, in 2012, that Ground stations, that is, the lunar observatories, have improved by a factor of 200, but the agreement between observations and fitted theory has plateaued at ∼2 cm over the past two decades. However, no substantial progress on improving the fit has been reported in the published literature, till date. Based on about a quarter-century of experience in doing high-precision numerical simulation of celestial orbits, the authors have developed LESMA (lunar Ephemeris at sub Microarcsecond accuracy) utilizing the methodology of evolved general relativity (EGR) that has incorporated the following two concepts: (1) Relativistic time for integration and (2) methodology of conservation of magnitude of the angular momentum, MΦ , for Φ-rotation (in addition to the θ-rotation that leads to the rosetting ellipse) of the orbital plane. Incorporation of the two above-mentioned concepts has led to three orders-of-magnitude accuracy-improvement of the computed (1) precession (compared to JPL's DE405) of Lunar orbit, as verified using three independent methods and (2) radial
最精确的LLR(月球激光测距)计划,名为APOLLO(阿帕奇点观测站月球激光测距操作),在2009年演示了毫米范围的定位精度,从而将LLR提高了一个数量级。由于LLR是研究重力的基础技术,Murphy (APOLLO的首席研究员)在2009年指出,在这种毫米级的精度下,模拟模型已经被发现是提取理论科学结果的限制因素,因此,我们应该:(1)发展科学案例,并扩大我们为高精度新体制建立LLR模型的能力;(2)发展理论工具,以完善亚毫米LLR的科学案例;(3)探索哪些模型/代码值得我们付出努力。(4)由于毫米级数据是最近才发展起来的,模型的工作滞后。(5)最后,我们将编码新的物理,以便我们可以模拟灵敏度。关于模拟模型/代码,Murphy在2013年指出,在四个可用的LLR模拟模型中:JPL(喷气推进实验室),CfA(哈佛-史密森天体物理中心),LU(德国汉诺威莱布尼茨大学)和IMCCE(法国Mecanique celeste et de calde Ephemerides研究所),JPL模型目前产生的加权均方根残差在~ 18 mm,约为其他模型的一半;因此,显然与阿波罗的毫米测距精度存在差距。因此,自2013年以来,CfA、LU和IMCCE参与了一项逐步比较简化的工作,以确定模型的差异、错误和缺点。现有的四种LLR模拟模型可分为广义相对论-天文学家模型;它们基本上是相似的。美国宇航局月球科学研究所马里兰大学的Douglas Currie教授在2012年的一次会议上表示,地面站,即月球观测站,已经提高了200倍,但在过去的20年里,观测结果与拟合理论之间的一致性一直停滞在2厘米左右。然而,迄今为止,在已发表的文献中还没有关于改善配合度的实质性进展的报道。基于近四分之一世纪对天体轨道进行高精度数值模拟的经验,作者利用演化广义相对论(EGR)的方法开发了LESMA(亚微弧秒精度的月球星历),该方法包含以下两个概念:(1)积分的相对论时间和(2)轨道平面Φ-rotation(除了导致玫瑰椭圆的θ-旋转之外)角动量的大小守恒方法MΦ。结合上述两个概念,使计算得到的月球轨道进动(与JPL的DE405相比)和月球径向位置(与JPL的DE430/431相比)的精度提高了三个数数级。LESMA将使科学家能够有效地利用来自美国宇航局等的研究资金,以产生来自阿波罗的新的科学成果。LESMA也将有助于获得更好的科学结果(比福克纳报告{2014年}的亚米精确月球位置)从GRAIL(重力恢复和内部实验室)任务(耗资5亿美元),通过花费更多的钱来重新计算,利用LESMA数据。

The aether theory of gravity basically states that the gravity produced by a large object such as the earth is that aether is destroyed or modified within the earth. This results in a fall in aether pressure within the earth. Aether then accelerates into the earth from outer space in order to keep the aether pressure within the earth constant. The aether accelerating into the earth exerts a force on all objects caught in the accelerating aether flow. We have modified the existing theories of what aether is, and using these modifications and existing published figures on the structure of atomic nuclei, we have been able to calculate the aether pressure at the surface of the earth, as well as calculating the gravitational force per nucleon at the surface of the earth. We calculated the aether pressure at the surface of the earth as being 3311 N/m2 or 337.66 kg/m2. The gravitational force per nucleon is 1.627 × 10−26 N/nucleon. We present an entirely new way to calculate the gravitational force acting on an object at the surface of the earth based on the aether theory of gravity and aether dynamics. The force of gravity acting on an object (F) is the product of the aether pressure (P), the mass of object in grams (m), the effective surface area of a nucleon (Seff), and Avogadro’s number. The effective surface area is proportional to half of the surface area of a nucleon (S) multiplied by a factor (). The factor necessary to modify the effective surface area was calculated using calculus. The fact that this equation, based on aether dynamics, actually works demonstrates that the aether theory of gravity may well be correct.

Abstract The physical mystery behind the constancy of the velocity of light is solved after the bias blind spot of Einstein's relativistic physics was illuminated precisely. We have given the physical law f = c/λ. The relative frequency shifts of the longitudinal Doppler effect are calculated from the frequency ratio of the frequency f r at the receiver and the frequency f e at the emitter. The very small frequency shift of the so-called relativistic time dilation factor can be neglected for low velocities. Comparing electromagnetic radiation, when receiver and emitter are at rest, the wavelengths must be the same and are canceling, so that we obtain: f r/f e = (c/λ r)/c/λ e) = c/c = 1/1. If the relative velocity c of light were constant in any inertial frame, independent of the motion of the receiver and emitter, no shift of wavelength and frequency would be possible. Einstein's special relativity excludes the possibility of the longitudinal Doppler effect. The longitudinal Doppler effect is explained according to relativity in dependence of gravity (RG), by which Einstein's illogical relativity is replaced. Why do we always measure the constant velocity c on Earth is now physically understandable.

The relative\u0000 frequency shifts of the longitudinal Doppler effect are calculated from the frequency ratio of the frequency f r at the receiver and the frequency f e at the emitter. The very small frequency shift of the so-called relativistic time dilation factor can be\u0000 neglected for low velocities. Comparing electromagnetic radiation, when receiver and emitter are at rest, the wavelengths must be the same and are canceling, so that we obtain: f r/f e = (c/λ r)/c/λ\u0000 e) = c/c = 1/1. If the relative velocity c of light were constant in any inertial frame, independent of the motion of the receiver and emitter, no shift of wavelength and frequency would be possible. Einstein's special relativity\u0000 excludes the possibility of the longitudinal Doppler effect. The longitudinal Doppler effect is explained according to relativity in dependence of gravity (RG), by which Einstein's illogical relativity is replaced. Why do we always measure the constant velocity c on Earth is now physically\u0000 understandable.","PeriodicalId":51274,"journal":{"name":"Physics Essays","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47053578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The general theory of relativity extends the special theory of relativity to account for gravity (acceleration) and results in the postulation that matter curves spacetime, where gravitation is the embodiment of the spacetime curvature. The curvature of spacetime is modeled using Riemannian geometry. In this paper, it is proposed that matter rotates spacetime hyperbolically, rather than curves spacetime. As a result, gravitation is the embodiment of the hyperbolic rotation of spacetime. Regions in spacetime that have a larger magnitude of rotation relative to other regions of spacetime, ceteris paribus, experience stronger gravity, gravitational time dilation, gravitational length contraction, and gravitational frequency shift toward the red (blue) in the electromagnetic waves moving away (toward).
