Graduate Double Slit Experiment & Relativistic Simultaneity
Relativity of Simultaneity, sorry, a lot of my information on Relativity comes from "Relativity Simply Explained" by Martin Gardner and he only explained it as "simultaneity". I'm not sure where I got the "Relativistic" from. Regardless, Gardener explains it like this: The wave function of...- Boeley

Graduate Double Slit Experiment & Relativistic Simultaneity
In the double slit experiment, an observer appears to change the behavior of the particle/wave. Would it be possible to use relativistic simultaneity to explain the change in behavior of particles/waves? A potential passing by, and being observed by an observer, causes the potential to become...- Boeley

Graduate Is the Higgs Boson Necessary if Lorentz-Fitzgerald Accounts for Mass Increase?
This is all so far beyond me... My understanding of Relativity is based on the structure of spacetime causing mass / gravity. So, at least from my perspective the two are incompatible. Admittedly, my knowledge of Higgs/QM is lacking, so I can't say for certain. If the LF equation...- Boeley

Graduate Is the Higgs Boson Necessary if Lorentz-Fitzgerald Accounts for Mass Increase?
sqrt(1-v2/c2) About matter and mass... I've been thinking that if the Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction equation can accurately calculate an increase in inertial mass (without anything representing the Higgs Field), is there any need for the Higgs Boson? Doesn't the LF equation imply that...- Boeley

Graduate Gravity, Inertia and Contraction
Inertia has Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction. Is there a similar (parallel?) contraction equation for Gravitational forces?- Boeley

Graduate My Theory of Gravity: Mass Causes Time Dilation & Attraction
[FONT="Century Gothic"] I've been trying to satisfy my curiosity about gravity for some time now. And I would like to share what I believe to be how gravity works. Attraction between objects is caused by differences in time. We all know speed = distance / time, so if an object at rest is...- Boeley

Graduate Can Time Create the Illusion of Gravity in a 4-Dimensional Universe?
Good grief. I'll keep posting stupid statements, love the info. Thanks!- Boeley

Graduate Can Time Create the Illusion of Gravity in a 4-Dimensional Universe?
I think it does. I keep hearing about Quantum Physicists looking for a Quantum Theory of Gravity, if Gravity is an effect of Time, why aren't they looking for a Quantum Theory of Time? :) Semantics, maybe ... but there's a difference to me. I also loathe the word "curvature". Pictures...- Boeley

Graduate Can Time Create the Illusion of Gravity in a 4-Dimensional Universe?
If we live in a 4 dimensional universe, doesn't it only make sense that object which exist in it, exist in all 4 dimensions? I think, a majority of people think of time as a separate dimension from the 3 of space. That is to say, a ball, floating in space affects all 4 dimensions, 3 of...- Boeley
