CONTENTSACKNOWLEDGEMENTS PREFACE Preface to the First Edition Preface to the Second Edition Preface to the Third Edition PART I MODERN PHYSICS 1 INTRODUCTION TO PART I Equations? What are those? You Do Know Something You're Crazy, Ed! Some Dogs Bark, Some Dogs Bite Big Words, Little Words 2 IDEAS OF LIGHT AND SPACE What is Light? The Wave Theory of Light Particle Theory of Light The Special Theory of Relativity Duality of Light The Michelson-Morley Experiment The Lorentz Contraction The Ultraviolet Catastrophe 3 THE SPECIAL THEORY OF RELATIVITY Newton's Laws Absolute Motion The Special Theory of Relativity Limits A Differential Problem 4 THE GENERAL THEORY OF RELATIVITY The General Theory The Bending of Light Relativity Verified The Space-Time Continuum Einstein's Arguments The Curvature of Space Matter = Energy 5 PARTICLE PHYSICS Some History Atoms The Chemists The Periodic Table Discovery of X-Rays Discovery of the Electron Radioactivity The Nucleus Protons and the Bohr Model Neutrons Problems With the Bohr Model The Nuclear Strong Force Discovery of the Mu (µ) Meson The Cloud Chamber Logical Microscope Beer Bubbles p Meson Found-and Kaons Strangeness Decay Modes of Matter Conservation of Charge Conservation of Momentum Conservation of Strangeness The Eightfold Way Quarkdom 6 QUARK THEORY Footprints Detection of Particles Particle Accelerators Your T.V. Set-A Particle Accelerator Electrons and Positrons Protons and Anti-Protons Neutrons Are Invisible Neutrinos Are Abstract Leptons Hadrons Mesons Baryons Flavor Color PART II THE TIME-ENERGY THEORY 7 INTRODUCTION TO PART II In A Different Light 8 THE TIME-ENERGY BASIS Perceptions of the Universe The Nature of Light Our Eyes Play Tricks on Us Zeno and Aristotle Phusiologia and the Phusikoi Plural or Singular Zeno's Paradox Newton and Leibniz A Problem With The Calculus A Fly In Einstein's Ointment Flies In The Quantum Too??!!! 9 QUANTUM REPERCUSSIONS Through The Woods Quantization of Particle Motion All Energy is Quantized Who Dropped the Ball? Quantization of Mechanical Energy Gravity is Quantized Transition States Are Quantized Motion Cannot be Continuous Does Space-Time Continuum = Aether? No Strings Attached The Electric Field Space Does Not Exist The True Nature of Space Temporal Displacement Gives Structure What Is the Speed of Light? 10 THE TIME-ENERGY THEORY What Is A "Node" The Universe is A Node Hyper-Space?? The Non-Existence of Space The First Particle Creation Matter and Space Do Not Exist The Big Bang The Inflationary Universe Another Universe? 11 QUANTUM RECURRENCE Recurrence Must Take Place One-Thousand Dice The Infinite Universe Probability of Recurrence Nuclear and Atomic Quantization Two Reference Frames 12 THE TEMPORAL QUALITIES What is A d-Particle? What is Time? Temporal Length The Electric Field-Revisited Charge Invariance Temporal Density Mass Different Masses Contrast of Masses Temporal Direction At Highway Speeds Entropy Potential Energy Temporal Separation Summary of the Temporal Qualities 13 THE MATTER MODEL Particles Have Direction Complexity of Particles The Proton Model Other Particle Models A Final Note 14 THE ORTHOGONALITY OF SPACE Ideas of Light and Space Three Dimensions The Relative View Which Way Are We Going? Many Worlds to Deal With Orthogonality The Mystery of Light Straight Lines Aren't Light and the Path Potential The Universal Time-Line The Time-Coil of the Universe The Relative Transition Phase Angle Q-Matter in Motion The Right Triangle The Time-Energy Relationship Relativity and the Twin Paradox The Twin Paradox-Resolved The Time-Energy Temporium In Closing...
