Could a New Theory Redefine Our Understanding of Cosmic Evolution?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a new cosmological theory proposed by Fang-Pei Chen, suggesting that the energy of matter in the universe may derive from the gravitational field due to its energy decrease and the increase in total entropy during cosmic expansion. This theory offers alternative explanations for dark energy and dark matter, supported by recent astronomical observations. The paper is mathematically dense but hints at significant implications for our understanding of cosmic evolution. Additionally, the author challenges existing proofs of gravitational energy radiation, particularly in relation to the PSR 1913+16 pulsar system, raising questions about alternative evidence. This new interpretation could redefine fundamental concepts in cosmology.

Title: A New Interpretation about the Evolution of the Cosmos
Authors: Fang-Pei Chen
Comments: 16 pages

Based on Lorentz and Levi-Civita's conservation laws, it can be shown that the energy of the matter field in the universe might originate from the gravitational field as a result of the latter field's energy decrease and the total entropy increase followed by cosmic expansion. By exploring this possibility and by using some new evidences discovered from recent astronomical observations, we establish an alternative theory of cosmology, which gives a new interpretation about the evolution of the cosmos and a number of new explanations regarding dark energy and dark matter.

A very math rich paper, but reading between the maths gives a hint that
this idea may be worth watching.

Gravitational energy radiation is not proved by Pulsar system PSR 1913+16

The second paper disputes Gravitational energy radiation, a proof which
is supposed from in spiral in two body system, is there an alternate proof?
 
TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'
This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...
