What is New

Paradigm Physics?

New Paradig Physics is the platform on which I, Peter Damen, want to present some ideas that may help the advancement of the field of physics. The field of physics appears to be at an impasse. Not for the last couple of years, but for many decades. Before delving into that, lest's first look at the history of physics. Physics 1.0 The experimental and systematic physics basically started with Isaac Newton (1643-1727), although, obviously, he also built his physics on other, earlier discoveries, e.g. of Galileo Galilei (1564-1642). In his "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" (1687) Newton described the foundations of the classical physics using absolute space and absolute time. These foundations advanced the field of physics enormously and have been used for over two centuries before some cracks appeared. These foundations can be regarded as Physics 1.0. Physics 2.0 Cracks in the absolute physics of Newton started to appear at the turn of the 19 th  to the 20 th  century. The relativity of motion, already described by Galilei in 1632, and the relation between matter and light, described by James Clerk Maxwell, fueled the need for a new physical revival. And it was, more than a century ago, Albert Einstein who realised this revival. Thanks to Einstein, but also many other scientists (e.g. FitzGerald, Lorentz, Poincaré, Hilbert, Gauss, Riemann, Mach and Minkowski), physics has been given the special (1905) and general theory of relativity (1915). Key point in this so-called physics 2.0 are the (supposed) relativity of both space and time. Physics 3.0 For over a century we have two pillars of modern physics, i.e. general relativity and quantum mechanics, dominating the field of physics. However, apart for the irreconcilability of these two theories, other aspects of both theories don't add up as well. For instance, the source and mechanism of the supposed warping of spacetime is completely unknown. In addition, the theory of general relativity is a geometrical theory in which the supposed spatial deformations are purely perspectivisttic and lack any true physically understandable mechanism. And the other pillar, quantum mechanics, appears equally promising, but also appears to be a theory that is incomplete, as it's probabilistic nature, superposition, deconstruction of the wave function, and entanglement are all concepts that lack a physical-mechanistical understanding. So, about a century ago, the two pillars of contemporary physics have been discovered and described, general relativity and quantum mechanics. But since then, no true revolutionary, paradigmatic achievements have been published in the field of physics. New Paradigm Physics aims to break this impasse by introducing some new insights into the field of physics, and present a sort of physics 3.0 so to say. Foremost, a completely new, innovative and paradigm-changing theory of time will be presented, the 2T Theory of Time. This theory of time may very well be the first theory of time explaining how relativity physically functions and connecting relativity and quantum mechanics. The 2T Theory of Time basically reformulates general relativity, which describes relativity in spatiotemporal terms, to a completely new theory in which the vitality of matter is introduced, and relativity is described to be purely temporal. As a result, relativity becomes physically understandable (described in the 2T Model of Time), and relativity becomes reconcilable with quantum mechanics. As a side project, during the development of the 2T Theory of Time, it became apparent that something was wrong with the physics describing the formation of black holes. This subsequently led to the insight that according to contemporary physics, black holes simply cannot form in the physical reality. This insight resulted in a scientific paper called "Black holes... don't exist! Reinterpretation of general relativity required", and a popular science book with the same title, to be published within a couple of months. The 2T Theory of Time, and the underlying 2T Model of Time, collectively referred to as 2T, will be published as a trilogy of papers. The first paper will present the so-called 2T Theory of Time. The second paper will describe a physical model underlying the 2T Theory of Time. The third paper will discuss a number of consequences of the 2T Theory and Model of Time for various physics theories, paradoxes, problems, and challenges.
