Reinventing Gravity

Reinventing Gravity introduces general readers to Moffat's groundbreaking new ideas about the universe.

Arguing that Einstein's relativity and the theory of quantum mechanics are fundamentally incompatible, an introduction to the author's modified gravity theory traces recent work in string theory and quantum gravity while revealing how MOG explains the universe's behavior without relying on invisible dark matter. 15,000 first printing.

Embark on a transformative cosmic odyssey with TRADD: Total Relativity And Dimensional Dynamics by E. C. Schoevers. In this mind-expanding exploration, Schoevers challenges established scientific paradigms, redefining our understanding of the universe. Delve into the mysteries of space, as TRADD reintroduces it as a tangible entity, prompting profound reconsideration. Schoevers boldly reimagines gravity, proposing it emerges from intricate interactions between space and time, displacing spacetime curvature. The speed of light, a fundamental cosmic constant, takes on new significance, suggesting it may be intrinsic to space and time themselves. Time, often elusive, finds its place in plain sight within the universe's mechanics. Schoevers invites readers to question established norms, providing a fresh perspective that transcends conventional thinking. TRADD isn't just a book; it's a guide to viewing the cosmos through a different lens.

Gravity is the most detectable physical phenomenon of the universe. Nothing or nobody can escape its grasp, even in very large, astronomical distances. It is manifested in many aspects of our lives. Yet we are still not really sure what carries it. The gradually increasing understanding of gravity throughout history and its observed effects in various physical fields are the subjects of this book. This is an enlightening read about one of the most misterious phenomena of our lives that is still far from being fully understood, presenting a historical journey through several millennia of encountering and understanding gravity's mysteries.

Gravity and Gravitation is a physics book that is written in a form that is easy to understand for high school and beginning college students, as well as science buffs. It is based on the lessons from the School for Champions educational website.The book explains the principles of gravity and gravitation, shows derivations of important gravity equations, and provides applications of those equations. It also compares the different theories of gravitation, from those of Newton to Einstein to present-day concepts.

A simple explanation of gravity relates to the Higgs mechanism and the Pauli exclusion principle. By the latter, matter cannot occupy the same space other matter occupies, but light energy superimposes to be nearly invisible to other light. By the Higgs mechanism, light energy converts to matter. By its interaction, matter also converts back to light energy. Light speed is also slower in a gravitational field. There is thus a positive field of energy maintaining matter that emits light energy for a vacuum effect consistent with the inverse square law. As a recycling effect, it is also consistent with Einstein's cosmological constant and the cosmological principle of the big bang theory. Tired light is also included for dark energy whereby the Hubble Constant divided by light speed equates the ratio of gravitational force to electromagnetic force.

This three-volume A-to-Z compendium consists of over 300 entries written by a team of leading international scholars and researchers working in the field. Authoritative and up-to-date, the encyclopedia covers the processes that produce our weather, important scientific concepts, the history of ideas underlying the atmospheric sciences, biographical accounts of those who have made significant contributions to climatology and meteorology and particular weather events, from extreme tropical cyclones and tornadoes to local winds.

Black holes entered the world of science fiction and films in the 1960s, and their popularity in our culture remains today. The buzz surrounding black holes was and is due, in large part, to their speculative nature. It is still difficult for the general public to determine fact versus fiction as it pertains to this terrifying idea: something big enough to swallow anything and everything in close proximity, with a gravitational force so strong that nothing, including light, can escape. In the fall of 2015, scientists at the Laser Interferometry Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) detected the first sounds from black holes, brought to earth by the gravitational waves that emitted from the merging of two black holes 1.4 billion light years away in space. This confirmed the existence of gravitational waves, which Albert Einstein predicted in 1916. In the spring of 2017, physicists and astronomers who were working on the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) project captured the first image of a black hole. This was the supermassive black hole hosted by the galaxy M87 in the constellation Virgo, 53 million light years away, and the image shows the shadow the black hole casts upon the bright light surrounding it. In this book, John Moffat shares the history of black holes and presents the latest research into these mysterious celestial objects, including the astounding results from gravitational wave detection and the shadow of the black hole.
