A close examination of the Maxwell-Lorentz theory of electrodynamics reveals that polarization and magnetization of material media need not be treated as local averages over small volumes - volumes that nevertheless contain a large number…

An alternative, scalar theory of gravitation has been proposed, based on a mechanism/interpretation of gravity as being a pressure force: Archimedes' thrust. In it, the gravitational field affects the physical standards of space and time,…

Let us consider a reference frame for which the pseudo-Euclidean geometry is valid (prefered frame). The equations of Maxwell in empty space have a simple form and are derived from a Lagrangian. In a medium magnetic permeability and…
