Rigid Rotation and the Kerr Metric
Gerald E. Marsh
The Einstein field equations have no known and acceptable interior solution that can be matched to an exterior Kerr field. In particular, there are no interior solutions that could…
Space-Time-Matter
Gerald E. Marsh
This essay examines our fundamental conceptions of time, spacetime, the asymmetry of time, and the motion of a quantum mechanical particle. The concept of time has multiple meaning…
Dark Matter and Charged Exotic Dust
Gerald E. Marsh
The density profiles of dark matter halos are often modeled by an approximate solution to the isothermal Lane-Emden equation with suitable boundary conditions at the origin. It is…
Charge, geometry, and effective mass in the Kerr-Newman solution to the Einstein field equations
Gerald E. Marsh
It has been shown that for the Reissner-Nordstrom solution to the vacuum Einstein field equations charge, like mass, has a unique space-time signature [Found. Phys. 38, 293-300 (20…
The Vacuum and the Cosmological Constant Problem
Gerald E. Marsh
It will be argued here that the cosmological constant problem exists because of the way the vacuum is defined in quantum field theory. It has been known for some time that for QFT…
Charge, geometry, and effective mass
Gerald E. Marsh
Charge, like mass in Newtonian mechanics, is an irreducible element of electromagnetic theory that must be introduced ab initio. Its origin is not properly a part of the theory. Fi…
