INTRODUCTION: (Last updated October 29, 2004)

The present crisis in fundamental science.

In his 1998 book, What Remains to be Discovered, [1] Sir John Maddox, past editor of Nature for 23 years, calls attention to “the present crisis in fundamental science" which stems from the 65 year old incompatibility of general relativity theory with quantum theory. According to Maddox, this crisis has been calling, with increasing clarity and anxiety, for “a new physics, regulated by principles not yet imagined”, [p. 21] that will introduce itself in the following three ways: [98-120]
  1. By the readily quantizable description of gravity which it provides.
  2. By the deeper understanding of space, time, and matter, which it provides in doing so, the need for which is “now self evident.”
  3. By its intrinsic suitability for modeling all aspects of big bang cosmology.
But Maddox carefully distinguishes between the possibility of merely discovering such a new physics, which could eventually lead to a mathematically well formulated theory of everything (TOE), and the less likely possibility of discovering a fully formulated (TOE). [p.21] To be sure, a more realistic quest for fundamental theorists was outlined by Steven Weinberg in his 1986 Dirac Memorial Lecture on “The Final Laws of Physics.” Namely:

...“To look for a simple set of physical principles, which have about them the greatest sense of inevitability, and from which everything we know about physics can, in principle, be derived,” not discounting the prediction of his colleague John Wheeler; that, “when we eventually know the final laws of physics, it will surprise us that they weren't obvious from the beginning.” [2]

Matching milestones of the new physics that is systematically derived in this paper.

In this paper I take pains to first delineate a driving energy principle which has about it the greatest sense of inevitability, and from which I systematically derive the general mathematical qualifications of a system of classical hyper-dimensional field equations which appear to be suitable for addressing all aspects of big bang cosmology. The inevitability of this driving energy principle stems from the fact that it is merely a consolidation of two energy principles that were separately unveiled by two of the world’s most productive fundamental theorists, about 100 and 140 years ago, respectively: I am referring to:
  1. Albert Einstein’s celebrated 1905 unification of field-particle energy and mass; which endowed energy with a previously unappreciated substantiveness, ubiquity, and fluidity.
  2. James Clerk Maxwell’s overlooked 1865 energy theory of space and gravity; which revealed that the “attractive” interaction of electrically neutral matter results naturally from a mass induced decrease of a relatively enormous energy density, e/o, that characterizes and delimits the physical space of this universe.
    3. [3-4]
Maxwell left the mathematical development of his space-energy theory of gravity (as we may call it) to future theorists, saying: It may therefore be encouraging to note that, with the depth, breadth, and precision of today’s knowledge and tools of thought, an embryonic view of the final laws of physics can be systematically derived by simply following the physical implications of Maxwell’s e/o-continuum given the substantive energy substance of all subatomic field-particles. Which means, following the physical implications of a Ubiquitous Substantive Energy (USE) postulate, which states that: From this USE postulate I proceed to systematically derive:
  1. In Sections (II and III): A deeper and more practical Lorentz invariant understanding of what is meant by space, time, matter, particle inertia, and Maxwellian gravity.
  2. In Sections (IV and V): A readily quantizable fluid-energy description of gravity that covers special relativity theory and a crucial part of general relativity theory. Thereby revealing that the physics of substantive energy, even more so than the Maxwellian physics of electromagnetism, can be mathematically formulated by borrowing whatever is needed from the now 350 year mature nonlinear field theory of compressible fluid dynamics.
  3. In Sections (VI thru IX): By extrapolation to (1 + p > 3)-dimensions, a fluid hyper-energy physics which appears to be intrinsically well suited for modeling all aspects of big bang cosmology, thereby provisionally vindicating Einstein's belief in a classical TOE.
  4. In Section X: The strong possibility that the field-particle system is at least conditionally open to a permanent form of vibrational hyper-dimensional energy, called hyper-energy, which is physically coupled to our rich energy-space and field-particles as a literal hyperflow of field-particle time. Raising the question, can this physical flow of time possibly be tapped, universally, to create revolutionary forms of low pollution power and propulsion?
  5. Overall: A 30 year upgrade to my original paper. [5]

=================================================

Hence, one of the most admirable qualities of Hyper-Energy Theory is that it naturally and fortuitously absorbs the 350 year mature mathematical physics of nonlinear compressible fluid dynamics, logically extending its descriptive power moreover to (p > 3)-spatial dimensions; so that it can intuitively account for Maxwell's space-energy and the structures of all of its embedded (and embeddable) massive and massless particles; ultimately accounting for both the pseudo 'rigid' characteristics of some particles and some bulk matter, and the more general fluid dynamic characteristics of electrodynamics and more loosely bound bulk matter. Things that any other candidate for a unified field theory and cosmology would also be obliged to account for.

Hence, in the precise manner envisioned by Dirac for the physics of the future, a much deeper understanding of QM does emerge with the better understanding that hyper-energy physics permits for things like the classical (solitonal) structures of space and its particles, the transport of all particles through e/o and the intrinsic light speed of the massless ones, plus the underlying de Broglie waves which, like boat waves, must naturally be associated with all particle transport though e/0.[6]
