(Blanko) Vorbemerkung Da die Recherchearbeiten seit 2004 eine erhebliche Anzahl neuer kritischer Veröffentlichun- gen identifiziert haben, andererseits aber die Herausgabe einer Neubearbeitung der Dokumentation vorerst nicht abzusehen ist, haben wir uns entschlossen, der Öffentlichkeit das bisherige Arbeits- ergebnis unseres Projekts in einer separaten Vorabversion zugänglich zu machen. Die Gliederung des Materials entspricht der bisherigen Gliederung des Kapitels 4: (1) Sammelwerke, chronologisch (2) Autorenalphabet Die Abgrenzung zwischen den beiden Teilen ist hier und wird auch künftig etwas anders vorgenommen als bisher, indem die anonymen Einzelschriften jetzt in das Autorenalphabet als Gruppe unter „NN“ (= nomen nescitur) gestellt worden sind. Diesen Eintrag hatten wir bereits 2004 mit wenigen Beispielen eingeführt. Inzwischen hat sich die Zahl der Beispiele deutlich erhöht, besonders durch die oft nicht mit vollem Namen gezeichneten Rezensionen, die unter „NN“ überhaupt erst einen gut begründeten Ort im Alphabet gefunden haben. Mit vollem Namen gezeichnete Rezensio- nen werden unverändert unter ihrem Verfasser eingetragen. Der in den letzten Jahren durch die rasante Entwicklung des Internets entsprechend gestiege- ne Anteil von Internetveröffentlichungen wirft für eine Verzeichnung eigene Probleme auf und ver- langt eigene Lösungen. Eine Erörterung dieser Fragen und Darlegung unserer Bearbeitungsgrund- sätze bleibt einer künftigen Neuausgabe der Dokumentation vorbehalten. Auf die Einfügung von Verweisungen für weitere Beteiligte (Autoren, Mitarbeiter, Heraus- geber) ist in dieser interimistischen Ausgabe verzichtet worden. Das Titelmaterial ist aber auch in dieser Ausgabe benutzbar und durch die Suchfunktion in der PDF-Datei hinreichend erschlossen. Die Entscheidung für eine Vorabveröffentlichung ist das Ergebnis gemeinsamer Überlegun- gen mit unseren Partnern Jocelyne Lopez und Ekkehard Friebe, die großes Interesse daran gezeigt haben, das neue Material ihrem zahlreichen Publikum vorzulegen. Ihre beiden Weblogs, ihre Homepages und die von der GFWP übernommene Internetseite „Kritische Stimmen zur Relativi- tätstheorie“ stoßen im Internet auf großes Interesse. Wir hoffen, mit dem Angebot von weiteren Titelnachweisen diesem Interesse zu dienen. Die Gesamtzahl der in unserem Projekt nachgewiesenen kritischen Veröffentlichungen er- höht sich damit von 3789 auf 6183. G. O. Mueller, April 2012 (Blanko) G. O. Mueller: SRT.

  • A Plausible Resolution to Hilbert's Failed Attempt to Unify Gravitation & Electromagnetism
    Prespacetime Journal| December 2018 | Volume 9 | Issue 10 | pp. xxx-xxx 1000 Christianto, V., Smarandache, F., & Boyd, R. N., A Plausible Resolution to Hilbert’s Failed Attempt to Unify Gravitation & Electromagnetism Exploration A Plausible Resolution to Hilbert’s Failed Attempt to Unify Gravitation & Electromagnetism Victor Christianto1*, Florentin Smarandache2 & Robert N. Boyd3 1Malang Institute of Agriculture (IPM), Malang, Indonesia 2Dept. of Math. Sci., Univ. of New Mexico, Gallup, USA 3Independent Researcher, USA Abstract In this paper, we explore the reasons why Hilbert’s axiomatic program to unify gravitation theory and electromagnetism failed and outline a plausible resolution of this problem. The latter is based on Gödel’s incompleteness theorem and Newton’s aether stream model. Keywords: Unification, gravitation, electromagnetism, Hilbert, resolution. Introduction Hilbert and Einstein were in race at 1915 to develop a new gravitation theory based on covariance principle [1]. While Einstein seemed to win the race at the time, Hilbert produced two communications which show that he was ahead of Einstein in term of unification of gravitation theory and electromagnetic theory. Hilbert started with Mie’s electromagnetic theory. However, as Mie theory became completely failed, so was the Hilbert’s axiomatic program to unify those two theories [1]. Einstein might be learning from such an early failure of Hilbert to unify those theories, and years later returned to Mie theory [1]. What we would say here is that Hilbert’s axiomatic failure can be explained by virtue of Gödel’s incompleteness theorem: which says essentially that any attempt to build a consistent theory based on axiomatic foundations can be shown to be inconsistent.

  • Electrical Engineer Disproves Einsteins Relativity Theory: the Ruins of 106 Years Relativity
    Arend Lammertink: Electrical Engineer disproves Einsteins Relativity Theory: The Ruins of 106 Years Relativity. http://tuks.nl/wiki/index.php/Main/Ruins96YearsEinsteinRelativity Electrical Engineer disproves Einsteins Relativity Theory: The Ruins of 106 Years Relativity. Last week the newspapers were filled with the discovery of "impossible" particles traveling faster than the speed of light. A month ago an "impossible" star was discovered and earlier the Pioneer space probes also refused to adhere to the law. This way, the scientific establishment will slowly but surely be forced to return to reality, the reality of the existence of a real, physical ether with fluid-like properties. The inevitable result of that will be that Einstein’s relativity theory will go down in the history books as one of the biggest fallacies ever brought forth by science. In the future they will look back to relativity with equal disbelief as to the "Earth is flat" concept. The relativity theory not only goes against common sense, as Tesla already said in 1932, a fundamental thinking error has been made by Maxwell in his equations. This eventually lead to the erroneous relativity theory, as is proven in this article. It is therefore no exaggeration to state that the scientific establishment is going to have a religious experience. source: Tesla’s Ambassadors The scientific establishment has been completely beside the mark by worshiping Albert Einstein and forgetting about Nikola Tesla. This logically thinking realist already wiped the floor with the theory of relativity in 1932 and thus proved for the umpteenth time to be far ahead of his time: 1 of 12 06/08/13 23:15 "It might be inferred that I am alluding to the curvature of space supposed to exist according to the teachings of relativity, but nothing could be further from my mind.

Hanle, Editor ' *• V SMITHSONIAN STUDIES IN AIR AND SPACE - NUMBER 3 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given sub­ stantive review.

    SYNTROPY AND SUSTAINABILITY Ulisse Di Corpo Lungotevere degli Artigiani 32, 00153 ROMA – ITALY [email protected] https://upsol.academia.edu/UlisseDiCorpo Antonella Vannini Lungotevere degli Artigiani 32, 00153 ROMA – ITALY [email protected] https://upsol.academia.edu/AntonellaVannini ABSTRACT In the 1920s the backward-in-time solutions of the fundamental equations of the universe were rejected as non-physical, since retrocausality was considered to be impossible. Then, in 1941, the mathematician Luigi Fantappiè noticed that the properties of these solutions are: energy concentration, the increase in differentiation and complexity, the reduction of entropy, the increase in cohesion and unity, the formation of structures and the increase in order. Listing these properties he remarked that they coincide with the properties of life, which the classical (time forward) approach is unable to explain. In 1942 Fantappiè published a small book titled: “The Unitary Theory of the Physical and Biological World” in which he suggests that the physical/mechanical world is governed by the forward-in-time solution and by the law of entropy, whereas life is governed by the backward-in-time solution and by a law symmetric to entropy which Fantappiè named syntropy (from the Greek words syn = converging and tropos = tendency). The entropy/syntropy theory deals with energy and states that two transformations can effect energy: a forward-in-time transformation governed by the law of entropy and a backward-in-time transformation governed

  • The Generalized Conversion Factor in Einstein's Mass-Energy Equation
    Volume 3 PROGRESS IN PHYSICS July, 2008 The Generalized Conversion Factor in Einstein’s Mass-Energy Equation Ajay Sharma Fundamental Physics Society, His Mercy Enclave Post Box 107 GPO Shimla 171001, India ajay.sharmaa@rediffmail.com Einstein’s September 1905 paper is origin of light energy-mass inter conversion equa- tion (L = mc2) and Einstein speculated E = mc2 from it by simply replacing L by E. From its critical analysis it follows that L = mc2 is only true under special or ideal conditions. Under general cases the result is L / mc2 (E / mc2). Conse- quently an alternate equation E = Ac2M has been suggested, which implies that energy emitted on annihilation of mass can be equal, less and more than predicted by E = mc2. The total kinetic energy of fission fragments of U235 or Pu239 is found experimentally 20–60 MeV less than Q-value predicted by mc2. The mass of parti- cle Ds (2317) discovered at SLAC, is more than current estimates. In many reactions including chemical reactions E = mc2 is not confirmed yet, but regarded as true. It implies the conversion factor than c2 is possible. These phenomena can be explained with help of generalized mass-energy equation E = Ac2M. 1 Introduction bomb explosions, volcanic reactions etc. Whatever may be the case E = Ac2M is capable of explaining the phe- Mass energy inter-conversion processes are the oldest in na- nomena.
