  • Isaac Newton vs. Robert Hooke on the Law of Universal Gravitation

    by Nicolae Sfetcu ...
    One of the most disputed controversy over the priority of scientific discoveries is that of the law of universal gravitation, between Isaac Newton and Robert Hooke. Hooke accused Newton of plagiarism, of taking over his ideas expressed in previous works. In this paper I try to show, on the basis of previous analysis, that both scientists were wrong: Robert Hooke because his theory was basically ... Read more

  • Escape From Shadow Physics

    Quantum Theory, Quantum Reality and the Next Scientific Revolution

    by Adam Forrest Kay ...
    The received wisdom in quantum physics is that, at the deepest levels of reality, there are no actual causes for atomic events. This idea led to the outlandish belief that quantum objects - indeed, reality itself - aren't real unless shaped by human measurement. Einstein mocked this idea, asking whether his bed spread out across his room unless he looked at it. And yet it remains one of the most ... Read more
