A Proposed New Test of General Relativity and a Possible Solution to the Cosmological Constant Problem
Murat Özer
Following a conjecture of Feynman, we explore the possibility that only those energy forms that are associated with (massive or massless) particles couple to the gravitational fiel…
Metric Unification of Gravitation and Electromagnetism Solves the Cosmological Constant Problem
Murat Özer
We first review the cosmological constant problem, and then mention a conjecture of Feynman according to which the general relativistic theory of gravity should be reformulated in…
Is There an Age of the Universe Problem After the Hipparcos Data?
Murat Özer
We have reanalyzed the age of the universe problem under the assumption that the lower limit on the age of the globular clusters is 11Gyr, as predicted by the recent Hipparcos data…
On the Possibility of Building a Black Hole for Electrons in the Laboratory
Murat Özer
We point out in this work that if our recently proposed unified description of gravitation and electromagnetism through a symmetric metric tensor is true, then building in the labo…
Proposed Experiments to Test the Unified Description of Gravitation and Electromagnetism through a Symmetric Metric
Murat Özer
If gravitation and electromagnetism are both described in terms of a symmetric metric tensor, then the deflection of an electron beam by a charged sphere should be different from i…
