SUMMARY

The discussion centers on Myron Evans' O(3) Electromagnetism theory, which proposes an alternative to classical and quantum U(1) electromagnetism. Key findings include the suggestion that grand unified theories should result in SU(3)xSU(2)xO(3) rather than the traditional SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1). Evans' theory also relates to general relativity and presents an antisymmetrized gravity concept as a source. The discussion highlights the challenges in understanding Evans' claims due to their disorganized presentation.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of U(1) electromagnetism
  • Familiarity with grand unified theories (GUTs)
  • Knowledge of general relativity
  • Basic concepts of nonlinear optics
NEXT STEPS
  • Research Myron Evans' O(3) Electromagnetism theory in detail
  • Study the implications of SU(3)xSU(2)xO(3) in grand unified theories
  • Examine the inverse Faraday effect and its relevance to electromagnetism
  • Explore the concept of antisymmetrized gravity in theoretical physics
USEFUL FOR

Physicists, researchers in theoretical physics, and students interested in alternative electromagnetism theories and grand unified theories.

Afther a bit of research i have at last found the right place to learn about the Miron Evans theory.

It is here:
http://www.aias.us/

From the many papers enumerated there i have foudn that these could be one of the most self-contained:

http://www.aias.us/Note05182003/finalwaveeqnms.pdf


As far as i have understood till now (these guy is very disordered and it is hard to guess which are his claims and the order in which they appeared) i believe the history is something like these:

Some experimental facts (inverse farday effect-phase free magnetization by circularly polarized electromagnetic radiaton), other non linear optics fenomenology,and i guess also the sagnac effect) left him to guess classical and quantum U(1) electromagnetism is not the right theory.

Instead there is a O(3) theory which allows further polarization states.


Them gran unified theories wouldn´t result in SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1) but in SU(3)xSU(2)xO(3).

Later he found a way to relate his O(3) theorywith general relativiy resulting in an unified theory of all known interactions. (aparently it overcomes the coleman-mandela therem without supersymmetry)

In a diferent paper he speaks of some kind of antisymmetrized gravity as source of his theory.

As far as i have seen till now he has good ideas and good arguments. Anybody know exactly why he is considered an outsider? and how, beeing an outsider he an publish books in rigurous editorials?

Unhappily i have not
