The cover image presents a visual illusion of motion. When you focus on the
|
||
central point and move the page toward or away from your eyes, the concentric
|
||
circles appear to rotate.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
This reflects a central theme of this work: perception shapes what we think of as
|
||
“reality.” In this illusion, motion exists only in our minds. We perceive, we do
|
||
not directly know; our brains construct experience.

|

<p>In this book we’ll use a few conventions.</p>
|
||
<h3 id="new-concepts">New Concepts</h3>
|
||
<p>As many of the topics discussed in this book are a mix of
|
||
<strong>established</strong> math and physics, <strong>proposed</strong>
|
||
dualistic interpretations of established ideas, and also
|
||
<strong>speculative</strong> ideas that I don’t yet know how to address,
|
||
I wanted a way to clearly distinguish these concepts. I’ve come up with
|
||
the following convention to highlight these classes of concepts to
|
||
indicate their level of mainstream acceptance.</p>
|
||
<p>In this book, established concept may be highlighted in green, and
|
||
represent mainstream physics or math concepts.</p>

<h2 id="fine-structure-constant-1">Fine Structure Constant</h2>
|
||
<p>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine-structure_constant As a
|
||
consistency check, we compute the <em>Fine Structure Constant</em> using
|
||
Reduced Natural Units which is a unit less ratio that should be
|
||
independent of our system of units.</p>
|
||
<p><span
|
||
class="math inline">$\huge{\alpha=\frac{e^2}{4\pi\epsilon_o\hbar
|
||
c}=\frac{e^2}{4\pi}=0.00729735≈\frac{1}{137}}$</span></p>
|
||
<p>This check confirms that our system of Reduced Natural Units has
|
||
internally consistent values for <span
|
||
class="math inline"><em>c</em></span>, <span
|
||
class="math inline"><em>ϵ</em><sub><em>o</em></sub></span>, <span
|
||
class="math inline">ℏ</span> and <span
|
||
class="math inline"><em>e</em>−</span>. And also <span
|
||
class="math inline"><em>G</em><sub><em>o</em></sub></span> which was
|
||
used to computer prior values is also consistent.</p>
