Measurement of the speed of light in water using time-correlated single photon counting detection

A theoretical discussion of the present results is undertaken with reference to Newton's original corpuscular theory of light. It is argued that his failure to predict that light travels more slowly in water than in air arose from the inadequacy of his mechanical theory rather than his assumptions about…

Revision of Relativity Theory

Relativity theory as Einstein devised it is easily shown to be fundamentally flawed. Examples are represented to prove this beyond a shadow of doubt. The revised version of relativity removes all these problems by introducing the Uniform Scaling Principle and the Newton-Voigt space-time Transformation…

Reevaluation of De Broglie’s Wave-Particle Duality Interpretation

The erroneous prediction of the speed of light in dispersive media has been looked upon historically as unequivocal proof that Newton's corpuscular theory is incorrect. Examination of his arguments shows that they were only directly applicable to the momentum of photons, however, leaving open the…

Statistical Mechanics of Light in Free Space

The consequences of Bose’s statistical theory with regard to the possible existence of zero-energy photons are discussed. It is pointed out that Einstein’s mass dilation formula leaves open the distinct possibility that photons with zero energy can move with speed v

Comparison of the mks and mksC Systems of Units for the Description of Both Dynamic and Electromagnetic Quantities

The mks System is capable of making a concise description of the units of all dynamical variables in terms of the three fundamental quantities of distance (m), inertial mass (kg) and time (s). It is shown in Table 1 how these units can be represented by three-dimensional vectors in which the exponents…

Conversion of the Units of the mks and British Systems

There are two frequently used systems of units for physical properties. The mks System employs the meter (m) and kilogram (kg) as the units of distance and inertial mass, whereas the British System employs foot (ft) and pound (lb) in their place. In many cases, a conversion between the numerical values…

Revision of the SI Notation for Electromagnetic Quantities To An Exclusively mks System of Units

A system of units is described which replaces all the SI units for electromagnetic quantities with combinations of the meter, kilogram and second (mks units). There is a degree of freedom in the definition of the SI units which is illustrated by Coulomb’s Law. All that is required is that the ratio of…

Replacing Einstein’s Flawed Version of Relativity Theory by Incorporating Newton’s Concept of …

The Lorentz Transformation (LT), which is the cornerstone of Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, is shown to lack internal consistency. Furthermore, his conclusion that the speed of light is the same relative to its source as it is for an observer in a different rest frame is untenable. It is also shown…

Conversion Factors for Physical Property Measurements In Different Rest Frames Using a Revised Version of Relativity Theory…

The history of the development of the Uniform Scaling Method is reviewed. It has its beginning with the Law of Causality and Newton’s First Law of Kinetics (Law of Inertia). On this basis it can be concluded that the rates of clocks do not change spontaneously, i.e. without the application of some external…

The Central Role of the Relativistic Velocity Transformation in Modern Physics Theory

The Relativistic Velocity Transformation (RVT) is a very valuable tool for understanding the results of experiments. It was first used in 1907 by von Laue to explain the Fresnel-Fizeau light-damping phenomenon associated with the passage of light through a tube filled with a non-dispersive liquid. It…
