Abstract

The development of Physics has been distorted by the order in which history presents discoveries and the development of ideas. With hindsight, we are able to reconstruct the development of concepts correcting mistakes. We summarize here the results of 20 years work which has produced a unified theory of electromagnetism and gravity. The relativistic effects are derived form EM theory and shown to be real physical phenomena. From the assertion that the purpose of magnetism in nature is to give elementary charged particles the property of inertial mass, we derive the laws of electromagnetism. Our theory of gravity predicts the effects of gravitational potential, but differs from GR in having no singularities and uniform contraction in length. Knowing that magnetic flux is quantized, we derive the quantized energy levels of hydrogen. We derive the effect of magnetic coupling and show that the electron does not have an intrinsic magnetic moment. We look at the structure of the photon and investigate wave particle duality. Our unified theory lacks only an explanation of the strong force.
