Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The Vortex Theory claims to challenge the foundations of relativity by suggesting that time is a byproduct of motion, a concept reminiscent of theories discussed in Physics Forums (PF v2). However, the theory lacks credibility as it has not been published in any scholarly journals, provides no mathematical formulas or practical applications, and solicits financial support for further information. The discussion highlights skepticism regarding the legitimacy of the Vortex Theory and emphasizes the need for rigorous scientific validation.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Einstein's theory of relativity
  • Familiarity with the concept of time in physics
  • Knowledge of scientific publication standards
  • Basic principles of motion and its relation to time
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the validity of claims made by the Vortex Theory
  • Explore the concept of time as a byproduct of motion in modern physics
  • Review scholarly articles on theories challenging relativity
  • Investigate the interaction theory mentioned in the discussion
USEFUL FOR

Physicists, students of theoretical physics, and anyone interested in the critique of contemporary theories of time and relativity.

Care to share? They are claiming relativity is based on some wrong assumptions about time, that its obsolete.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I got an email about it a few months ago. They probably mined these forums for email addresses.

Lets see. They have a miraculous new discovery which will turn physics on its end. They have no articles in any scholarly journals. Their website gives no formulas or even examples of where their theory would apply, AND they want you to send them money to find out about their "theory".

Yep, sounds like a winner to me.
 
Yeah Enigma, I noticed that...

they also made some claims I've seen sort of reminiscent to a new theory on PF v2 with regard to time being a byproduct of motion.
 
If the vortex theory is right it should be equivalent to the theory of interaction.

lets agree on right assumptions about time. have you seen my 'CONSTRUCTION OF TIME' in 'ARGUMENTS AGAINST MODERN PHYSICS'. what about it?
