The Einstein-Cartan Torsion Field Theory

<-- Previous (Metamaterial Stress Tensor) (Space-Time Dimension) Next -->


Recorded: 6/10/2018 Released: 10/29/2018

Randy explains some recent developments in the Einstein-Cartan torsion field to Jim. This theory introduces at least one tensor field representing the intrinsic angular momentum at a space-time point, and was originally intended to remove singularities from general relativity.

Notes:

1. The papers we read for this program:

2. My review of Will's book. This paper serves as something of an update of it. A true update is scheduled to come in December 2018.

4. Contact Randy at randy@physicsfm.com to take him up on his offer. Actually, I don't know if those e-mail redirects really work. I set them up some time ago, but I've never seen anything come in from them.

5. Please visit and comment on our subreddit, and if you can help us keep this going by contributing to our Patreon, we'd be grateful.
