  • The Nature of Space and Time (New in Paper)

    by Stephen Hawking, Roger Penrose ...
    Series series Princeton Science Library
    Einstein said that the most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible. But was he right? Can the quantum theory of fields and Einstein's general theory of relativity, the two most accurate and successful theories in all of physics, be united in a single quantum theory of gravity? Can quantum and cosmos ever be combined? On this issue, two of the world's most famous ... Read more

  • More Light on the Expanding Universe

    by Les Hardison ...
    More Light on the Expanding Universe explores the ramifications of the existence of a fourth physical dimension into which the universe is expanding. One of these is the possibility that light travels at infinite speed from the source to any receptor anywhere, rather than at the 300,000 Kilometers per second generally accepted by contemporary physicists. This resolves many of the paradoxes in ... Read more

  • The Theory of One

    Realizing the Dream of a Final Theory

    by Christopher Bek ...
    Christopher Bek has produced a revolutionary physics theory and claims that this theory of one (2001) solves the greatest scientific problem of all time by uniting relativity theory (1905) with quantum theory (1925). According to Bek, it proves that the universe is bounded at light speed and Planck's constant, that there is only one photon (i.e. a being of light), that one photon is God, and that ... Read more

  • On the Topology and Future Stability of the Universe

    by Hans Ringström ...
    Series series Oxford Mathematical Monographs
    The standard starting point in cosmology is the cosmological principle; the assumption that the universe is spatially homogeneous and isotropic. After imposing this assumption, the only freedom left, as far as the geometry is concerned, is the choice of one out of three permissible spatial geometries, and one scalar function of time. Combining the cosmological principle with an appropriate ... Read more

  • Decorrelative Mollifier Gravimetry

    Basics, Ideas, Concepts, and Examples

    by Willi Freeden ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This monograph presents the geoscientific context arising in decorrelative gravitational exploration to determine the mass density distribution inside the Earth.
