An Open Letter to the Scientific Community "The big bang today relies on a growing number of hypothetical entities, things that we have never observed-- inflation, dark matter and dark energy are the most prominent examples. Without them, there would be a fatal contradiction between the observations made by astronomers and the predictions of the big bang theory. In no other field of physics would this continual recourse to new hypothetical objects be accepted as a way of bridging the gap between theory and observation. It would, at the least, raise serious questions about the validity of the underlying theory. ..." continues ...

Resolving a Paradox in Special
Relativity
|
|
Relativity is expressible in terms of absolutivity. That is to say, Einstein’s purely relative motion equations —his relativity of motion in geometric space— can be converted and expressed as aether-referenced equations. —CR |
Einstein postulated that only relative movements between objects are
physically relevant; absolute inertial motions cannot be measured and
cannot even be defined. Simply put, absolute inertial motion
(constant-speed straight-line motion with respect to a preferred
frame-of-reference) has no meaning in special relativity. Einstein
made it quite clear, there is no place in his theory for a preferred
frame of reference. All inertial motion is relative, relative to
whoever is observing the motion (or, relative to whatever object is
designated as a stand-in for the observer)
However, physical reality does not agree with Einstein’s theory. Absolute motion can be detected —in fact it was repeatedly detected throughout the twentieth century! For further details see The Aether Experiments and the Impact on Cosmology.
| Now the fact that Einstein ignored (even
misinterpreted) the evidence, concentrating his efforts in furthering
his purely mathematical field theories, is interesting but
understandable. It is understandable because Einstein, as a Platonist,
considered the abstract world more real than the substantive world.
However, the fact that the conventional Physics Community ignored the
evidence —even imposing publication restrictions and censorship— is
shocking and bizarre. It is a long story; and still unfolding. Here’s
the ultra short version: All those individuals and institutions with a
vested interest in Einstein’s Relativity fear the evidence, the
evidence with the power to radically alter a cherished theory, and
fear the revolutionary implications that come with absolute
inertial motion. Revolutionary implications? Absolutely! ... The experimental evidence of absolute motion means that space is physical. It means space has an undeniable degree of absoluteness. It means that space (the vacuum) can be accurately described as being an aether-space. It means that conventional Physics has it wrong —wrong, ever since the historic year of 1887. Most embarrassing. |
Historical view of Aether as a light conducting medium: Somewhat as sound waves consist of vibrations of a material medium (such as air), it was postulated that electromagnetic waves are propagated in a rarefied, all-pervasive medium called “the aether,” which was assumed to be so ethereal (and non-viscous) that planets pass through it without appreciable friction. The electromagnetic field was taken to be a certain kind of stress in the aether, somewhat similar to stresses that occur in ordinary solid, liquid, and gaseous materials that transmit the waves of sound and mechanical strains. |
Einstein was well aware of the fearful consequences of evidence of absolute motion. In a letter of July 1925 to Edwin E. Slosson, Einstein confessed that “Should the positive result [of the Miller aether-motion experiments] be confirmed, then the special theory of relativity and with it the general theory of relativity, in its current form, would be invalid. Experimentum summus judex.” [1] [Emphasis added]
Einstein had always accepted the conclusion of the famous Michelson and Morley aether-drift experiments: No motion detected; the so-called 'null result.' But now Einstein's contemporary, Dayton Miller, was accumulating positive aether-motion results. He had little choice but to hope and assume “that the Miller experiments are based on a fundamental error. Otherwise, the whole relativity theory collapses like a house of cards.” (Albert Einstein, in a letter to Robert Millikan, June 1921, with added emphasis)[2] Imagine the suspense; much of your life’s work hanging in the balance; great theories threatened by an essence substance that is as close to nothingness as is possible to conceive!
And as it happened absolute motion was discovered.
|
“The effect [of aether-drift] has persisted throughout. After considering all the possible sources of error, there always remained a positive effect.” — Dayton Miller (1928)[3] |
The discovery was, for the most part, ignored. When it couldn’t be ignored it was discredited. This went on for the lengthy balance of the twentieth century.
The (state-sponsored) Physics Community self-censured into stagnation. While this situation continues, it is left to others to address the cascade of implications that flow when one discovery leads to other discoveries. It is the independent researchers who must deal with the discovery and the repeated experimental confirmation of the existence of a physical space —descriptively called a luminiferous-and-dynamic aether.
The irony in all this is that Einstein’s fear was unfounded. Although, the existence of aether was confirmed, its existence need not have been cause for concern. Einstein and his followers were so opposed to the aether idea that they missed an unprecedented opportunity to actually extend his great theory —to extend relativity to include a ‘preferred frame’ and encompass absolute inertial motion.
Lacking the concept of absolute inertial motion Einstein’s relativity leads to a paradox. The first half of the Paper details the paradox —the speed paradox. The second half resolves it. (The Appendix gives the mathematical proof.)
Supplementary Discussion
Absolute motion is the key discovery.
What does this mean for relativity theory? It means that Einstein’s special relativity can be expressed in terms of absolutivity. That is to say, Einstein’s purely relative motion equations —his relativity of motion in geometric space— can be converted and expressed as aether-referenced equations. It means that Einstein’s relativity becomes a sub-domain of a broader theory encompassing absolute and relative motion (also, absolute and apparent effects).
The cascade of implications goes like this: The discovery of absolute motion leads to aether-space which leads to the sub-summation of relativity into a broader theory. But it gets better.
|
Here is the startling sequence that leads to theory unification: Absolute motion leads to aether-space leads to a light propagation medium (which Clerk Maxwell had claimed all along was needed to make sense of the electromagnetic theory). It was the existence of an aether medium that allowed Maxwell to claim that the velocity of light from moving sources was invariant. (In other words Maxwell had a logical cause for c to be constant, Einstein did not.) Now, if light is a wave that travels in the aether medium and sound is a wave that travels in an atomic/molecular medium, it is easy to see the opportunity for theory unification. The properties of the aether —the luminiferous-and-gravitational aether— as fascinating as they are, will not be detailed here. The purpose of this supplementary discussion is to highlight how two separate and distinct theories of the Doppler effect can be brought together under a new Unified Doppler equation. (DSSU relativity is the sub-summing theory.) In conventional physics the Doppler effect for moving light sources is treated as a completely independent phenomenon unrelated to the Doppler effect for moving sound sources. No equation relates the two phenomena.

Doppler Phenomena Doppler effect: The
change in the observed frequency of an acoustic or electromagnetic
wave due to the motion of source and/or observer. |
The existence of aether-space as a medium for the propagation of electromagnetic waves changes everything. The Flowchart below traces the unifying structure of the mathematical relationships. The chart shows that the wave frequency f picked up by the Detector is determined by the motion (collinear speed vS) of the Source and by the motion (collinear speed vD) of the Detector.

The DSSU Unified Doppler equation is derived in the Appendix to the research Paper.
It is important to realize that the Einstein’s Doppler equation is not a special case of the Unified. It is by no means obvious, but both equations give the same answer; they must because the frequency Detector displays the actual frequency and does not care which equation the Detector-frame Observer decides to use as a check.
Then it must be that both relativistic expressions are general. The Unified Doppler expression always uses aether-referenced velocities; within its domain it is general. The Einstein Doppler expression always uses purely relative velocities and within its domain it, too, is completely general.
Why is this so important? ... It means that within its domain, within its limited sphere of applicability, there is nothing wrong with Einstein’s special relativity.
