The law of centripetal force governing the motion of celestial bodies in eccentric conic sections, has been established and thoroughly investigated by Sir Isaac Newton in his Principia Mathematica. Yet its profound implications on the…
A connection between Maxwell's equations, Newton's laws, and the special theory of relativity is established with a derivation that begins with Newton's verbal enunciation of his first two laws. Derived equations are required to be…
In the frame of multifractal theory of time and space (in this model our universe is consisting of real time and space fields and is the multifractal universe) in the works [1]-[16] some problems were analyzed: how the fractional dimensions…
The motion of binary star systems is re-examined in the presence of perturbations from the theory of general relativity. The Kepler problem is regularized and linearized with quaternions. In this way first order perturbation results are…
An elementary proof of Kepler's first law, i.e. that bounded planetary orbits are elliptical, is derived without the use of calculus. The proof is similar in spirit to previous derivations, in that conservation laws are used to obtain an…

We study the modification of Newton's second law, upto first order in the deformation parameter $a$, in the $\kappa$-space-time. We derive the deformed Hamiltonian, expressed in terms of the commutative phase space variables, describing the…
Consider the dynamics of two point masses on a surface of constant curvature subject to an attractive force analogue of Newton's inverse square law. When the distance between the bodies is sufficiently small, the reduced equations of motion…

In this paper, we point out that there are at lest six theorems in physics sharing common virtue of Pythagoras theorem, so that it is possible to string these theorems together with the Pythagoras theorem for physics teaching, the six…
An earlier paper [1] presented a gravity theory based on the optics of de Broglie waves rather than curved space-time. While the universe's geometry is flat, it agrees with the standard tests of general relativity. A second paper [2] showed…
The radial component of the motion of compact binary systems composed of neutron stars and/or black holes on eccentric orbit is integrated. We consider all type of perturbations that emerge up to second post-Newtonian order. These…
The Kepler problem is a physical problem about two bodies which attract each other by a force proportional to the inverse square of the distance. The MICZ-Kepler problems are its natural cousins and have been previously generalized from…
We derive the equations of motion of an extended test body in the context of Einstein's theory of gravitation. The equations of motion are obtained via a multipolar approximation method and are given up to the quadrupolar order. Special…
Here we provide an overview of what is known, and what is not known, about an interesting dynamical system known as the Kepler-Heisenberg problem. The main idea is to pose a version of the classical Kepler problem of planetary motion, but…
We propose an interpretation of the Newton's second law that is suggested by Galilean Relativity theory.
We delineate the role of rotation and spin in physics, discussing in order Newtonian classical physics, special relativity, quantum mechanics, quantum electrodynamics and general relativity. In the latter case, we discuss the generalization…
