Abstract
The article considers a complex of geometric representations of space-time, based on general dynamic theories of celestial mechanics in close connection with pulsar astrometry as the physical basis of coordinate-time transformations within the solar system and galactic space as a whole. The pulsar time scale is considered as a certain material system with continuous and stable motion, representing a certain measurable parameter – the rotation period P, which changes as a function of the independent time variable – its derivative. The physical pulsar scale is a sequence of measured daily increments of the initial radiation period within any duration. According to observations at the BSA radio telescope (Pushchino) of the pulsar B0950+08, the time scale was determined with an initial period of P0=0.2530653211840410 s on the date MJD0 = 58971 (02.05.2020; 21h.58m.07s). A measured daily increment ΔP = 1.4441·10E-11 s corresponds to the measured value of the derivative P = 1.6759949886E-16, which is determined by the observational timing data. Measured ΔP are defined in the 25th decimal place. Up to 14-15 digits, Δ P there is a pulsar time scale with femtosecond resolution. From 15-16 to 25 digits Δ P is presumably sequential fixation of discrete states of microparticles during quantum-mechanical interactions of matter and electromagnetic radiation of a pulsar. According to our hypothesis, the diversity of the material world and physical processes occurring in celestial and quantum mechanics are finite and it can be generalized. This implies the inseparable unity of physical laws in four-dimensional space of celestial and quantum mechanics, detectable on pulsar time scales under the same conditions.
