Abstract:
The mass-energy content of the present-day universe is dominated by an exotic component known as dark energy. In its earliest stages, a similar dominant component drove the exponential growth of cosmological inflation. This note explores how a sufficiently advanced civilisation might manipulate dark energy for faster-that-light travel. An exact solution of the Einstein gravitational field equations that experiences highly anisotropic inflation serves as a toy model to illustrate the principles. A sample calculation exhibits highly superluminal motion while imposing negligible stress on a space

Question – How does the Riemann Hypothesis Support Topological Propulsion and Faster-than-light Travel? Answer – a) Using the axiom that there indeed are infinitely many nontrivial zeros on the critical line (calculations have confirmed the hypothesis to be true to over 13 trillion places), the critical line is identified as the y-axis of Wick rotation (see the text accompanying Figure 6). This suggests the y-axis is literally infinite and that infinity equals zero. In this case, it is zero distance in time and space (again, see the text accompanying Figure 6).

Furthermore, the amounts of injected activity required to produce a detectable signal are consistent with small-animal molecular imaging applications.

This book would better have been called Backward Causation. For its central purposes, the reason for wanting the future to be real is that it must be real if it is to affect the present (see p. 12). Backward causation might be essential to the precognitions reported by paranormal psychologists (p. 20). Philosophers, too, might want it for giving power to Newcomb's Paradox (p. 42–45) in which the presence of a superbly efficient Predictor could discourage what would otherwise be evidently rational behaviour. Again, Time Machines (p. 226–237) and Ray Guns fired into the Past (p. 30f.) have attra

Abstract:
So far, East German tourism research has been studied little by the history of science. Tourism science saw the light of day around 1930 in Berlin. During the Cold War, in the GDR it gained a notable quantitative extent that finally equalled the research in the ‘capitalist’ part of Germany. Initially, theoretical questions played a prominent role, but then – like in the West – tourism science became a strictly applied discipline. Part and parcel of the planned economy, its focus was on the parastatal social tourism: holiday making was seen as a means to improve the health of the ‘workers and f

Large flow and long distance intersections are very difficult to bring out coordination control and very easy to emerge traffic problems such as traffic congestion due to the large flow and long distance and traffic discrete. It’s necessary to analysis the traffic flow characteristics among large flow and long distance intersections and take measure to improve the signal control. This paper analyzed the traffic flow characteristics of the large flow and long distance intersections, such as the speed would be faster than the normal road between near distance intersection, the headway between ca

Abstract:
A process for using curvature invariants is applied to evaluate the metrics for the Alcubierre and the Natário warp drives at a constant velocity. Curvature invariants are independent of coordinate bases, so plotting these invariants will be free of coordinate mapping distortions. As a consequence, they provide a novel perspective into complex spacetimes, such as warp drives. Warp drives are the theoretical solutions to Einstein’s field equations that allow for the possibility for faster-than-light (FTL) travel. While their mathematics is well established, the visualisation of such spacetimes

Abstract:
Signals relayed through the magnocellular layers of the LGN travel on axons with faster conduction speeds than those relayed through the parvocellular layers. As a result, magnocellular signals might reach cerebral cortex appreciably before parvocellular signals. The relative speed of these two channels cannot be accurately predicted based solely on axon conduction speeds, however. Other factors, such as different degrees of convergence in the magnocellular and parvocellular channels and the retinal circuits that feed them, can affect the time it takes for magnocellular and parvocellular signa

Abstract:
This paper aims to describe and analyze a relativistic engine that uses a permanent magnet and an electrically charged device. This is a novel device that was not described before. According to Newton’s third law, every action is met with an equal and opposite reaction, meaning the total force in a system unaffected by external forces is zero. However, relativity principles state that signals cannot travel faster than the speed of light, so actions and reactions cannot occur simultaneously. As a result, the total force cannot be zero at any given moment. This implies that the system gains mech

Abstract:
We know energy and mass of a particle can be connected by [Formula: see text]. What is the physical basis of this relation? Historically, it was thought to be based on the principle of relativity (PR). A careful examination of the literature, however, indicated that this understanding is not true. Einstein did not derive this relation from PR. Instead, his argument was mainly based on thought experiments, which focused on the similarity between radiation and matter. Following this hint, we suspect that the mass–energy equivalence could be based on the quantum property of wave–particle duality.
