Part of the Stand-Up Physicist series, half hour chats by Doug Sweetser about his theoretical physics research. In this show the reason a four potential theory has not been seriously investigated are looked at in detail. Goldielock's Principle - a theory between Newton's rank 0 and Einstien's Rank 2 General Relativity - is used to justify this rank 1 unified field theory.

  • have you ever asked Dyson, or one of the older guys in TP what they think about 4 potential UFT? how would schwartz sing. be linear in 4-D spacetime?

    You dont think Higgs mech is needed and tensor metric satisfies, but wouldnt that be 'Higgs field' by diff name and with less dimension, or maybe *Higgs* action makes it have scalar field? so charge accumulates mass in field tensor? ok but is there a quantization of attraction and so back to higgs type mass?

  • So far, I pitched only one "older guy" who was an arrogant string theorist. I did learn something from hime (I needed a +J in the Lagrangian). I am confident the real singularity in GR will not be in GEM due to details in the derivation of the exponential metric. The story of gauges is looking cool. I have to have a gauge invariant theory for EM, for gravity, and I need to also break that symmetry. For massive particles, the trace of the symmetric tensor is not zero, a scalar field.

  • dude, I can almost follow you but , oh fuck who am I kidding? you get over my head quickly but this is beautiful even in my (temporary) ignorance.

  • I have similar feelings. I know what I know, and it is never enough.

  • Wow, your lectures are very explanatory. I'm only 14 but I have high aspirations of becoming an astrophyscisist. Please keep posting videos like this :).

  • We have new experiments that violate charge conservation.

    Come to OverUnityDOTcom to see them.

    Regards, Stefan.

  • Id like to read any papers, published or not that you have written on the theory in all its detail.
