The Continuum

In modern physics, the general theory of relativity (GTR) successfully predicts the vital structure of gravity. The GTR confirmed that gravity is the distortion of four-dimensional spacetime [Formula: see text] by massive bodies. Such a prediction of the GTR is one of the vital successes towards the development goals of modern physics. Though, the central foundation for all the calculations of the GR is the hypothesis of continuum spacetime. In this paper, the author introduces a theorem of the quantum mechanical theory of time (QMT) to test whether the metric time is discrete or continuous. To prove the theorem, the author applied the set theory of cardinal numbers on the energy–time uncertainty relationship. The proof of the theorem confirmed that the metric time is discrete, and has an intrinsic quantum nature. The result implied that the continuum spacetime assumption of the GTR is found fundamentally erroneous. Therefore, spacetime is discrete and needs to be analyzed by the principles of quantum mechanics (QM).

What kinds of things are events? Battles, explosions, accidents, crashes, rock concerts would be typical examples of events and these would be reinforced in the way we speak about the world. Events or actions function linguistically as verbs and adverbs. Philosophers following Aristotle have claimed that events are dependent on substances such as physical objects and persons. But with the advances of modern physics, some philosophers and physicists have argued that events are the basic entities of reality and what we perceive as physical bodies are just very long events spread out in space-time. In other words, everything turns out to be events. This view, no doubt, radically revises our ordinary common sense view of reality, but as our event theorists argue common sense is out of touch with advancing science. In The Event Universe: The Revisionary Metaphysics of Alfred North Whitehead, Leemon McHenry argues that Whitehead's metaphysics provides a more adequate basis for achieving a unification of physical theory than a traditional substance metaphysics. He investigates the influence of Maxwell's electromagnetic field, Einstein's theory of relativity and quantum mechanics on the development of the ontology of events and compares Whitehead’s theory to his contemporaries, C. D. Broad and Bertrand Russell, as well as another key proponent of this theory, W. V. Quine. In this manner, McHenry defends the naturalized and speculative approach to metaphysics as opposed to analytical and linguistic methods that arose in the 20th century.

Rival Models

Quantum mechanics and the general theory of relativity are two pillars of modern physics. However, a coherent unified framework of the two theories remains an open problem. Attempts to quantize general relativity have led to many rival models of quantum gravity, which, however, generally lack experimental foundations. We report a quantum optical experimental test of event formalism of quantum fields, a theory that attempts to present a coherent description of quantum fields in exotic spacetimes containing closed timelike curves and ordinary spacetime. We experimentally test a prediction of the theory with the quantum satellite Micius that a pair of time-energy–entangled particles probabilistically decorrelate passing through different regions of the gravitational potential of Earth. Our measurement results are consistent with the standard quantum theory and hence do not support the prediction of event formalism.

About 1400 years ago, we heard of a great event from the Arab land, Isra 'Mi'raj. However, over time, and the times are getting better with increasing science theory. Then the events of Isra and Mi'raj can be revealed in modern physics so that they can be accepted by human reason. Through Einstein's theory of relativity, E = m.c2 (where E is energy, m is mass, and c is the speed of light), Isra 'Mi'raj becomes an event that is no longer irrational, but rational and scientific. Then, on what part of the theory of relativity play a role in explaining the events of Isra 'and Mi'raj of the Prophet Muhammad SAW scientifically?

Abstract On the basis of establishing the special theory of relativity with variable speed of light and obtaining the step function relationship between mass and speed, this article further seeks the proper collocations of mass, energy and momentum allowed by the "ontology" of moving masses which are in various stages of motion properties or in different physical environments. Three ontology collocation types are obtained. If we consider the basic fact that the lower the energy, the more stable it is, the real physical world ranges from astrophysics issues such as white dwarfs, red giants, and celestial space speeds, to the various light and heavy elementary particles existence, combination and performance，which qualitative knowledge can all be derived from the "ontology collocation ". Two of these three types of collocations are derived from the mass-velocity step function relationship contented of quantum properties, so all the quantum phenomena of modern physics will not be obliterated. It is hoped that the modern physics knowledge accumulated in the laboratory and the scattered various theories will be explained under the dominance of a classic theory. The article also deduced the conversion relationship between the inertial system S and S’ of the three collocation types of mass, energy and momentum of the moving mass. Derive the upgrade and downgrade law of the complete special relativity system, this also greatly expands the way to understand modern physics from the theory of relativity.

Einstein's theory of relativity revolutionized the view of space-time in physics, and its basic inferences have been continuously verified in the past 100 years. However, the theory of relativity is built on the basis of continuous and smooth space-time, and it cannot be compatible with the concept of discrete space-time in quantum mechanics, which causes many difficulties in the development of modern physics. This paper presents for the first time a heuristic viewpoint in which space-time is considered to be a type of quantized waves propagating at the speed of light. Based on this concept, it re-explains many inferences of special relativity and general relativity, proposes new theory on gravitation and space-time, and provides a preliminary unified framework for explaining dark matter, dark energy, gamma-ray bursts, high energy emission mechanisms in quasar, the origin and evolution of the universe and other difficult problems in modern physics.

This Handbook looks at the history of physics since the seventeenth century. It is comprised of four sections, the first of which discusses the place of reason, mathematics, and experiment in the age of the scientific revolution. The first section also covers the contributions of Galileo, René Descartes, and Isaac Newton. The second section deals with the ‘long’ eighteenth century — a period that is often regarded as synonymous with the ‘age of Newton’. The third section encompasses the subcategories of heat, light, electricity, sound, and magnetism, while the fourth and final section takes us into the age of ‘modern physics’, highlighted by landmark achievements such as the discovery of the photoelectric effect in 1887, Max Planck’s work on the quanta of radiation, Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativity of 1905, and the elaboration of the various aspects of what became known as quantum physics between 1900 and 1930.

. Modified theories of gravity have become a kind of paradigm in modern physics because they seem to solve several shortcomings of the standard General Theory of Relativity (GTR) related to cosmology, astrophysics and quantum field theory. The most famous modified theories of gravity are F(R) and F(T) theories of gravity. A generalization of these two modified theories and gravitations, which was first proposed by Myrzakulov Ratbay. In this paper, we study an inhomogeneous isotropic cosmological model with a fermion field f-essence whose action has the form , where R is the scalar of curvature, and T is the torsion scalar, and Lm is the Lagrangian f-essence. A particular case is studied in detail when parameters are obtained that describe the current accelerated expansion of the Universe. The type of Lagrangian f-essence of this model is determined. The presented results show that gravity with f-essence can describe inflation in the early evolution of the Universe. A modified F(R, T) gravity with f-essence is considered. Equations of motion were obtained and the inflationary period of the early Universe was considered. To describe the inflationary period, the form of the Hubble parameter and the slow-roll parameter were determined.
