Scientists suggest spacetime has no time dimension - 0 views

  • Scientists propose that clocks measure the numerical order of material change in space, where space is a fundamental entity; time itself is not a fundamental physical entity.
  • They propose to replace these concepts of time with a view that corresponds more accurately to the physical world: time as a measure of the numerical order of change.
  • No time dimension

  • “Einstein said, ‘Time has no independent existence apart from the order of events by which we measure it,’”
  • “Newton theory on absolute time is not falsifiable, you cannot prove it or disprove it, you have to believe in it,” Sorli said. “The theory of time as the fourth dimension of space is falsifiable and in our last article we prove there are strong indications that it might be wrong. On the basis of experimental data, time is what we measure with clocks: with clocks we measure the numerical order of material change, i.e., motion in space.”

Why is space three-dimensional? - 0 views

  •  
    (Phys.org)-The question of why space is three-dimensional (3D) and not some other number of dimensions has puzzled philosophers and scientists since ancient Greece. Space-time overall is four-dimensional, or (3 + 1)-dimensional, where time is the fourth dimension. It's well-known that the time dimension is related to the second law of thermodynamics: time has one direction (forward) because entropy (a measure of disorder) never decreases in a closed system such as the universe.

As it turns out, the new phase that the Hsieh group identified is precisely this type of multipolar order. To detect multipolar order, Hsieh's group utilized an effect called optical harmonic gene...
