Bøger om Minkowski space

It is shown that electromagnetic forces like gravitation can be related to variations in the metric tensor provided, time like space is three dimensional. Time coordinates are given by imaginary numbers. The 4-axes in Minkowski space represents one direction in an orthogonal coordinate system (4, 5, 6). Electrons and positrons are assumed to be tiny black holes. At the surface of a black hole the unit length of the 4-axes equals zero, and time flow is assumed to take place as rotations in the 4, 5-plane generating charge. Based on this view of electric charge classical electrodynamics is evolved, and a model of the electron is constructed. From that model Plank’s constant is estimated as a function of the speed of light, the elementary charge and Coulomb’s constant. The model unavoidably leads to quantum mechanics. It is assumed that time can flow in the 5, 6-plane between two tiny black holes, one acting as source and one as sink. From hybrids between such elements and electrons/ positrons the basic two quarks, and hence protons and neutrons, can be built up. Pairs of such source/sink elements are identified as neutrinos.
