A thought

There is something, that keeps running in my head for quite some time. Maybe it's not very important, since this is more a metaphysical speculation, but what if there are two different units for the two primary motions, which are ultimately incommensurable by one another? - just as in the plain simp...

Menyhért Palágyi - a predecessor of Larson?

Melchior (Menyhert) Palagyi was an Hungarian philosopher and mathematician from Jewish descent who formulated his own theory of space and time before Einstein and he is known for his criticism of the special relativity ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menyh%C3%A9rt_Pal%C3%A1gyi ). I have searched for ...

Gravitational limit or limits?

I have wondered what would be if a smaller object is within the gravitational limit of a bigger one, but the latter is outside of that of the smaller one. I imagine that it would appear as if the bigger one attracts the smaller one while it repulses itself from the bigger one. Then at some distance ...

RS and Aristotelian physics

I contemplate lately that some notions of the Aristotelian physics could be re-interpreted to fit the Reciprocal System. Thus the “prime mover” which is immovable, but moves everything could correspond to the scalar motion. It was thought to exist beyond the sphere of the fixed stars from where all ...

Shadows

<t>I was thinking much about the "Plato's Cave" analogy these days and I was wondering whether we can consider our conventional "coordinate" space and time as "shadows", i.e. projections of motion (actually in ancient Greek geometry the word used for " projection" was indeed "shadow"). My reason was...

Maybe...

<t>Maybe I am wrong, but this "Tusi couple" still seems as birotation to me: there are two rotations - the first one is counter-clockwise around the center, while the second one is clock-wise with a center upon the moving point of the first one. The radii and velocities are equal, only the angles di...

Visualization of birotation

Recently I found this representation of so-called " Tusi-couple " - a mathematical device proposed by 13th century Persian astronomer Nasir al-Din Tusi: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b4/Tusi-couple.gif Here we have two rotational motions - the second having its center upo...

Fine structure constant and Kozyrev's "course of time"

<t>Interesting - this can be an alternative explanation of the value of the fine structure constant.<br/> <br/> Curiously in his "asymmetric causal mechanics" the Russian astronomer Nikolay Kozyrev also proposed the existence of such physical quantity called "course of time" which distinguishes caus...

Ginzburg's theory

Yes, it seems very similar. Unfortunately I don't have the whole book, but only the excerpts published in his site: http://helicola.com/index.php?p=excerpts . In there I haven't seen him explicitly using complex numbers, however the general idea seems not very far from that. Thus what he calls "...

Ginzburg's "toryx number line"

This model reminds me of Vladimir Ginzburg's "toryx number line" which he develops based on non-conventional trigonometry of the toryx (toroidal helix): http://helicola.com/pdf/GinzburgToryxOct28-2011.pdf Even apart from his theory it seems to me that this concept could be useful for mappi...
