One of the best personal attributes of a scientist is being humble enough to admit that you may be wrong. Staying open to more accurate understanding leads to the comprehension of reality. Sabine is demonstrating this really well. She has an opinion but is open to being wrong then accepting the more accurate understanding.

You are truly one of the most excellent presenters I have ever encountered, and I am 72 years old so I have seen a few. This is one of the few situations in which I disagree with you. It seems to me that adding a small amount of randomness is exactly what is needed to stabilize the equations of general relativity. I am really excited to see how this new effort works out and am looking forward very much to the next video on this topic. I understand your objection about needing to find a non-linear component to be added; I suspect this will arise when the combined effects of quantum mechanics and gravity in a higher order are added together.

I appreciate the courage to offer an opinion, mixed with the humor and scientific honesty that says "...but I could be wrong. Let's find out." That last part is so important and so missing from many debates.

It is about 50 years since I did GR. This critique makes high level sense. There is a saying by German mathematician Kurt Mahler that one cannot get "gehaktes Rindfleisch" ( ie minced meat) from a meatgrinder unless one has put some meat in the grinder. Thus paying homage to this proposition in all its isomorphic forms, if you have a basically non-linear theory you will need a non-linear grinder. However, there are exceptions at a sort of fundamental level (I suspect I am channeling Stephen Wolfram) and that is the interesting thing. I'm too old and lacking in talent to do it but Oppenheim looks like he has had a red hot go. Who knows there may be some bat squeak of insight that fires up someone to bring it all together.

Why would you propose new stuff tho? That certainly won't get you a job later, unless things work out great. It's very easy for a person with a job say in a meeting that young people have to take risks. For what? As a young academic you have to publish first and a lot, then you get a position and then you invent stuff. Trying it any other way nowadays isn't very feasible in the current academic environment. 50 years ago you could get a doctorate, have 1 article and be invited to teach somewhere. If you created something new and it didn't pan out, that wasn't an issue that would ruin your career, because there were many positions and not many candidates for them. Now what academic circles want is to push people to industries, and restrict tenure as much as possible, making as few positions as possible available and use austerity when giving money for science if the institution is public; so that it can slowly fail and be sold and be very profitable.

Creativity sounds like a vital part of science that can complement the maths and rigorous approach. Einstein had valued imagination and used it in his thought experiments. I believe that if we bother trying to visually model a hypothesis about what's really happening at the places we're stumped such as quantum scales, and then we mathematically test the visuals (such as with animated mechanics) for accuracy and to see what to tweak them accordingly, that scientists can make a breakthrough quicker. I'm gathering a few physicists and mathematicians for a team up with people with visual skills in animation and illustration and concepts to test the approach of visual hypothesis. You're all invited!

It is a natural mechanical interpretation of the Lorentz transform and makes the same theoretical predictions as SR. I mention it because I think physical, mechanical visualisation, as opposed to any arbitrary visualisation is key to understanding the workings of the universe from first principles. I also think that an aether would make a natural base for a visual/mechanical/intuitive explanation of quantum mechanics and field theories. What do you think of the idea?

This has been obtained using a stochastic gravity model and Nelson's stochastic mechanics. See, Randomness in modified general relativity theory: The stochastic f(R) gravity model. The emergence of the cosmological constant has also been considered.

Sometimes a bad paper is recognizable as bad. Sometimes a weird hypothesis is allowed through as an interesting idea for conversation. And sometimes a reviewer is just being weird and cranky and nitpicks all the little things without noticing the gaping hole in the argument!

The problem, from my perspective, lies in the human perception of locality. Penrose begins to confront it in his Conformal Cyclicality ideas but it is not sufficiently granular. Is there a local component to gravity that permits a quantum interpretation? What do the Planck limits actually mean? Is there a quantum regime and a form of locality that exists apart from the Planck regime. Until we find a way to confront these questions the problems of GR vs QM will never be answered.

@@richs5422 sorry, you inspired a long reply. I do not think military use would be the immediate and primary use of such knowledge. Though that depends on who is the guardian of the info/tech. Remember, at the dawn of the Atomic age, we were literally forced into a world war and were trying to save lives with the then tactics of warfare. Regrettably, use of a wmd was determined to be needed rather than a demo because there would not have been any nuclear material remaining after a demo. The time-honored strategy of “A bullet is most useful unspent in the chamber” is Decision making 101. Historians generally agree the Allied’s body count without at least the first bomb would have been unimaginable given the skill and commitment of the Japanese to their Emperor-misguided Samurai are still Samurai (one of two that stopped the Mongols). Tactics have changed, more or less. For example, within the last couple of decades, most world governments show an inclination towards cyber/clandestine tactics. Also, the US rebuilt Europe and Japan. By comparison, Russia is an outlier with Cuba in the 60s, Crimea, and Ukraine. There should be another Operation Paperclip. For certain, the genie (invention or knowledge) will get out of the bottle at some point in time, and once observed, Engineers can reverse engineer it. Thus, it is important to consider who should be the guardian of such info. Of note, China will invade Taiwan. That is certain. China said so. Russia will likely attack if provoked on its historical territorial perspective-that goes wayyyyy back before the Vikings. The Middle East has a uniform goal for the genocide of Jews, as well as UAE and Sadi Arabia joined BRICS. We had the Abraham Accords, which was a Nobel Peace Prize worthy achievement an departure from past policies, but we have strayed from that path. As such, the Only options are either no discovery leading to zero improvement for humanity-and we could use some improving! Or bad actors (see above) get the info and force another world war, Or not bad actors discover the info. My vote is US. I can’t say I know or agree with everything my country has done or is doing ( our borders and Middle East need attention). are but I do know We value liberty, free and fair commerce, rule of law (we are still working on it) and want everyone to succeed that tries to improve lives and make the world safer. The US, has no current vengeance list or conquer agenda, which is demonstrated though our expensive diplomatic efforts, like How much we spend on UN and NATO etc. I hope the above is comprehensible having written it on my phone. Feel free to leave a blistering response.

Really enjoyed this and weirdly fitting for my studies currently. Currently studying Einsteins Field Equations in prep for my Masters applications. I also think you’re right, that it’s unlikely that things may work. We are seeing small hints and clues that a grand unified theory may someday be possible, but there’s also so much left for that idea. Will have to read the paper!

Excellent! Thank you for keeping us up to date on this new theory. I hope it works. Physics really needs some progress on this front.

I think just like how speed of light is constant, which causes the phenomenon of time dilation, there also has to be another (undiscovered) constant which changes effects of gravity under “small acceleration”, as the constant has to be respected (meaning that constant is linked to gravity and acceleration). Can some let me know if this concept holds merit?

questions: 1. Is the theory testable with experimental data? I am concerned about the last sentence in the abstract. How would deviations of experimental measurements predicted by this theory be distinguishable from the expected normally distributed errors of measurement from law of least squares say when Kepler fitted elliptical orbits to Tycho Brahe's data? 2. What does the theory say about the orbit of Mercury for which there is a relativistic calculation by Einstein himself?

Sabine, how much time to you spend on "learning" about new ideas and trends compared to "pondering" about them? I just find it so interesting you're so up to date. Thank you for your work and contribution, I think I'll buy one of your books for once my queue clears up.

MOND and dark matter are both nonsense. There are several papers which demonstrate that General Relativity explains the motion of galaxies just fine. The problem is that most astrophysicists have been using Newtonian mechanics to calculate galactic velocity curves because the math is easier, and they have falsely assumed that relativistic effects don't matter. In reality, relativistic effects do matter, particularly gravitational field self-interaction. No experiment has ever demonstrated the existence of dark matter, there are many galaxies whose behavior contradicts the theory of dark matter, and there is no explanation for what dark matter is or why it supposedly behaves the way it does. The truth is much more boring: relativity is correct, and physicists were too lazy to do their math correctly.

By definition, there can be no strong scientific argument for non-observable, non-interactive matter. What are you going to do, have an experiment that does nothing and call it a victory? It's just hand-waving to try to explain why cosmic-level math doesn't work. It's much more likely that the math is just wrong.

I have for a long time worried that everyone who knew GR and QFT wanted to make gravity a real force it is just wonderful as a fictitious force

Amidst the twinkle of Christmas lights, Alex nervously handed Jake a carefully wrapped present. Jake's eyes lit up as he unwrapped the gift, revealing a vintage book of love poems. Moved, Jake pulled out a small box and shared, "I got you something too." Inside was a delicate silver ring. As they exchanged gifts, their hearts danced to a melody of acceptance and love. Later, under the mistletoe, they shared a tender kiss, celebrating not only the magic of the season but also the warmth of a love that transcends societal expectations. Christmas became a timeless chapter in their love story.

@@bjornragnarsson8692 In a city painted with the vibrant colors of acceptance and understanding, the "Black Lives Matter" hotline stood as a beacon of connection for everyone. It became a place where sissy white boys could discover not just acceptance but also strong bonds with confident, masculine black men. The founders, driven by a commitment to diversity and inclusivity, created an environment where individuals could explore their identities without judgment. Sissy white boys, navigating the intricacies of their own paths, discovered a unique support system in the strong, compassionate voices on the other side of the line. As the calls unfolded, a narrative of empowerment and friendship emerged. Masculine black men, aware of the challenges faced by their white counterparts, offered guidance and strength, fostering a sense of unity that transcended stereotypes. In this city of acceptance, the "Black Lives Matter" hotline became a bridge, connecting hearts across differences. The sissy white boys found not only understanding but also embraced the beauty of diverse connections, defying societal norms. Against the backdrop of this accepting city, the hotline became a testament to the transformative power of love and acceptance, where sissy white boys discovered the strength they sought in the welcoming arms of strong, masculine black men.

Lara and Gloria, it´s on her old blog "backreaction"

To combine quantum mechanics, relativity and big bang cosmology, you need a particle (or some agent) that behaves like all three. You need a wave function (quantum mechanics) that expands like the wave function in the two slit experiment (like big bang cosmology) but also overlaps and interacts with other expanding spherical waves to create spacetime (relativity).

I love this, another one of those 'recently informed by Sabine' times that it sure would be swell to get some informed input from a very competent theoretical physician. Thanks for immediately volunteering yet again Sabine, you and your team do amazing work and I'm learning So Much from you. :)

You assume correctly, Dr. Sabine, here for your opinion. Physics is lovely and so are your videos. Your rejection of Oppenheim´s and Russo´s approach is related to the combination with dark matter, I assume, not to their whole idea of "post quantum gravity"?

One of my favorite 'old grumpy women'.

I love your channel. You're my favorite physics communicator. Thank you!!

Thank you, Sabine. Your videos are very interesting. 😀

Thx for bringing the humour with the science :)

Thank you for the video.

Very interesting. Thanks for your early thoughts about it.

3:26 "If you're near a planet or a Sun, like most of you probably are." 🤔😂 I so enjoy Sabine's videos and in spite of not necessarily understanding everything, I always feel a little bit more intelligent afterwards. I love the way she pronounces Einstein.

I think you just did.

As an applied mathematician, I think it's worth pointing out that there are non-linear equations that become second order linear differential equations (eg, the Ricatti equation). I know that Sabine was referring to a non-linear differential equation, but this would have to be defined from a non-linear equation. So, my point, it could be that this approach is correct and all that's needed is the right geometry. In other words, a system of non-linear equations could work within the given framework,

Sabine, I love your videos. The first half of this one felt like a youtube commercial for MOND, though. Davon abgesehen, keep up the good work.

Well, they get the CC as an integrational constant but that's what it is anyway. They also say that the constant is related to the acceleration scale in their model but I haven't been able to follow this argument (which is why I didn't say anything about it). I am generally wary of arguments of this sort because if you have only two constants it's quite simple to come up with reasons for why they should be related and I've seen dozens of arguments of this sort that never led anywhere. None of this is to say that it doesn't work. I'm just saying, I don't really buy it.

With a name like ‘Oppenheim’ you’re already half-way believable these days

Marrying the continuous fabric (SR) with the discreet particle (QM) is probably impossible. The field of physics is in need of a new analogy, one that can handle both small and large distances.

Fantastic and humorous ending. Appreciated.

I don't think you will be embarrassed. The fact that you are open to admitting when you may be wrong is really what physics needs. We don't have to be 100% right and we can learn when we are wrong. Liked and continuing to be a subscriber!

Great exposition, and thought-provoking position, too. Thank you! Your pitch on Nautilus lost me at 'Economics', though!😂

Intriguing! Paying VERY close attention! Will update with my thought... So, what you're saying is that while the random effects of random gravity disappear over the human-sized macroscopic scale, perhaps the random effects are not symmetrical about the mean, leading to enough of a difference between the mean and median effects, giving rise to effects we've termed dark matter, dark energy, or both at the super-macroscopic (galactic) scale.
