    So far, all tests of the strand tangle model are positive. It agrees with all of textbook physics. By the way, I offer an invitation to dinner to everybody who has a good argument …

    Agree with all observations

    The common constituents of space and particles must be extended, reach up to the cosmological horizon, and be of Planck radius. This yields the modern version of Dirac's scissor tr…

    Simple arguments, almost no math, lead to the common constituents of space and particles, and thus to the unified theory.

    Based on Battey-Pratt and Racey, 1980. There seems to be no other visualization of wave functions in the research literature that agrees with observations.

    Presents a way to picture how wave functions arise. Explains interference, entanglement, probabilities, and decoherence, as well as the Schrödinger equation and the Dirac equation.…

    Thank you. It seems that no other option except strands can explain both space and particles. It appears that a smallest length and a smallest area cannot arise in any other way.

    The first half of the paper helps shortening your study of physics. (Generated many comments 8 months ago. I am the author.) The second, more daring half leads into modern research…

    If you try to produce more power than c⁵/4G at a single point, a black hole horizon appears and will make exceeding the limit impossible.

    Comment #31961294

    In nature, the maximum power value c⁵/4G ≈ 9 ⋅ 10⁵¹ W cannot be exceeded, as stated by Sciama in 1973. Still not much known, the value limits the power of explosions, the luminosit…

    Thank you for your candid feedback. I belong to those working in physics for decades. To avoid such misunderstandings in future, I improved a few lines. One remark: the text is rea…

    No, I'm not. And reading the cited exchange is indeed useful to see this. The topic here was that physics can be summed up in 9 lines. Anonymous ad hominem arguments are worthless …

    Comment #30741559

    In physics, experiments are everything. That is why the page says: "No known observation contradicts these nine lines." Indeed, it is a sport to boil down everything to a smallest …

    In general relativity, space is not a thing.

    Comment #30735529

    Of course the 9 lines imply all of physics. Just mention a part of physics that is missing, and I'll buy you a beer. "Zero entropy" is indeed against the laws of physics - in this …
