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.
