Lochlainn O’Raifeartaigh
Wikipedia entry
Lochlainn O’Raifeartaigh (1933 -2000) was an Irish physicist of world-wide repute in the field of theoretical particle physics. He is best known for the O’Raifeartaigh Theorem, an important result in unification theory, and the O’Raifeartaigh Model of supersymmetry breaking.
O’Raifeartaigh was born in Dublin in 1933, and most of his scientific career was centred around that city, where he obtained his first degrees at University College Dublin (BA in 1953 and MSc in Mathematical Physics in 1956), and spent from 1968 until his death as Senior Professor at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies. He obtained his doctorate from the University of Zurich in 1960, under Walter Heitler. He also visited many institutions, notably Madras, IHES Bures, and Princeton University, but it was during an extended stay at Syracuse University (1964-8) that he made the discovery that established his reputation. This result, which became known as O’Raifeartaigh’s no-go theorem, showed that it was impossible to combine internal and relativistic symmetries other than in a trivial fashion, thus ending a widespread quest by the particle physics community to achieve this fusion.
O’Raifeartaigh’s prolific career in theoretical physics was manifested by many fundamental contributions to the application of symmetries in particle physics. In the 1970s he showed that the new supersymmetries could provide a mechanism (O’Raifeartaigh’s mechanism) for circumventing his no-go theorem which had assumed only classical Lie group symmetries. In the 1980s he applied non-Abelian gauge theory to the analysis of magnetic monopoles. His interests encompassed the spin-statistics theorem, Kac-Moody and W-algebras, and included early contributions to the theory of non-invariance (dynamical) groups, among much else. His long and productive career in the application of symmetry methods to theoretical physics was acknowledged by the award of the Wigner Medal in August 2000.

Here is the definitive unification of gravity and electromagnetism:
Force and energy fundamentally relate to distance in/of space. That is the first fact.
Gravity/acceleration is ultimately a binding energy/force which involves and relates to both position AND distance in space.
When force/energy is balanced with regard to BOTH resistance to acceleration/inertia AND gravity/acceleration THERE WE HAVE THE UNION OF GRAVITY AND ELECTROMAGNETISM AND SCALE INVARIANCE (BALANCED/NATURAL DISTANCE IN SPACE).
Force and energy (constant, that is) equal balanced and equivalent resistance to accel. AND accel. That is the most fundamental law in physics. Gravity/acceleration is ultimately a binding energy/force which involves and relates to both position AND distance in space.
All of the above is demonstrated in, and consistent with, this article:
http://radicalacademy.com/studentrefphilfmd13.htm
General Relativity fails to incorporate electromagnetic phenomena generally, and this is why it cannot explain or account for inertia. This is why it cannot fundamentally balance attraction and repulsion, and this is why it cannot account for space that is BOTH stretched/expanded and flattened/contracted. This would give us quantum gravity and the union of gravity and electromagnetism. F=ma then fundamentally expresses unified and balanced attraction and repulsion and also gravity/acceleration and inertia that are balanced and equivalent.
The way to fundamentally and truly unify and balance gravity, acceleration, and inertia is if they are all at half strength. This generally controls for motion/mobility, repulsion/attraction, and distance in/of space. Half gravity/mobility and half inertia/immobility. Inertia is immobility at bottom, as gravity is mobility at bottom.
Gravity and inertia are both fundamental to distance in/of space. In conjunction with generally balanced attraction and repulsion, we then unify electromagnetism and gravity.
Space is attached with full gravity, and it is detached with no gravity (think outer space). Accordingly, the space of dreams is semi-detached from touch. Now, the body runs the range of no gravity to full gravity.
I have fundamentally unified and proven/demonstrated (theoretically AND
actually) 8 different things in/as dream experience: inertia, gravity, and acceleration (all three of these are at half force/strength), quantum gravity, electromagnetism/light, quantum phenomena generally and fundamentally, attraction/repulsion, and F=ma.
And F=ma is the most important and fundamental law of the universe (and in
all of physics).
Quantum gravity requires the fundamental averaging of both gravity and inertia. It is important to grasp this most significant idea.
Modern physics fails to understand that the fundamentally interactive nature and extensiveness of being, space, experience, and thought is central to any unified understanding of physics.
Indeed, space must be EQUALLY contracted (semi-detached from touch) AND expanded (again, semi-detached from touch) in conjunction with equivalent/balanced inertia and gravity and equivalent/balanced gravity and electromagnetism. Therefore, space manifests in accordance with the middle/typical distance in/of space in dreams. This balances/unifies repulsion and attraction as well.
This post goes a very long way in fundamentally explaining why modern physics is so generally and thoroughly lost.

Quantum gravity requires that a smaller space be made larger and that a larger space be made smaller. This makes space flattened/contracted and stretched/expanded (on balance). The only way to do this is by
inertial and gravitational force/strength equivalency (at half/middle/average strength). This estabishes space in/as the middle distance in keeping therewith. This gives us force/energy that is equivalently expressed as/with distance in/of space.
When you look down at the ground/feet while standing upright, that is gravitational space; and, importantly, this pertains to distance in/of space as it involves full gravity (both invisible and visible).
Gravity is key to distance in/of space, and there is no getting around this.
Space is semi-visible/semi-invisible in dreams, as it is gravitationally averaged in relation to/with vision. Combining and
including opposites is key, as vision begins invisibly and ends visibly in conjunction with the range/experience of gravitational
space and feeling (while standing upright and looking directly downward).

——————————————— GRAVITY AND SPACE
When a body accelerates in space, creating the effect of inertia in the direction opposite where you accelerate, called center of gravity.
If space that accelerates, will create the same effect. (gravity)
Example, in the first second of the universe, the universal sphere would measure 300,000 kilometers in radius, at 2 º second 600,000 in the 3 rd second 900,000-kilometer radius, with the mass the same, in an area that increases in volume to the cube in negative density . It is therefore an acceleration into space. vacuum is not constant, and is accelerated by the universal sphere radius at all times. The vacuum is accelerated outward, and the effect goes in from each club. (gravity)
Principle of cause, effect.
Do not want to elaborate more. If you are interested I can explain a lot more Thank you for your attention Julián Luque c / escuelas nº 24, cp, 14550 Montilla (Córdoba) Spain

( MORE). the effect of inertia is constant as long as you accelerate, as if desaceramos always opposite to the direction.
(Gravity is an effect of inertia) due to the constant volume of the universe, the ability of the universal sphere increases with the cube in each, time. Mathematics is an accelerated equation. (The acceleration is equal to inertia). (inertia is equal to gravity)
Vacuum the entire volume of the universe is spread in more than half empty, otherwise it will shrink.
EL ESPACIO Y LA GRAVEDAD
Cuando un cuerpo acelera en el espacio, crea el efecto de inercia en sentido opuesto en la dirección donde se acelera, le llamo punto de gravedad.
Si es el espacio el que se acelera, creará el mismo efecto.(gravedad)
Ejemplo, en el primer segundo del universo, la esfera universal mediría 300.000 kilómetros de radio,en el 2º segundo 600.000 en el 3º segundo 900.000 kilómetros de radio, siendo la masa la misma, en una esfera que aumenta su volumen al cubo en densidad negativa. Por lo tanto es una aceleración hacia el vacío. el vacío no es constante, y es acelerado por el radio de la esfera universal en cada momento. EL vacío acelerado va hacia fuera, y el efecto va hacia dentro de cada maza. (gravedad)
Principio de causa, efecto.
No quiero extenderme mas. Si es de su interés puedo explicarle mucho mas Gracias por su atención Julián Luque c/escuelas 24 montilla cp14550 Córdoba) España

( MAS). el efecto de inercia es constante todo el tiempo que aceleramos, como si desaceramos, siempre en sentido opuesto a la dirección.
(La gravedad es un efecto de inercia) debido al volumen constante del universo, la capacidad de la esfera universal aumenta al cubo en cada ,momento. Matematicamente es una ecuación acelerada. (La aceleración es igual a inercia).(la inercia es igual a gravedad)
Todo el volumen de vacío del universo se propaga en un medio mas vacío, de lo contrario se contraería.

Author Frank Martin DiMeglio: “F=ma ultimately means constant force/energy in conjunction with balanced and equivalent inertia/resistance to acceleration and gravity/acceleration.” Dreams clearly prove this.
All of our thoughts are ultimately linked with the PHYSICAL experience of the HUMAN body. It is only because being and experience are ultimately inseparable that thought is so well matched/accurate in relation to/with experience.
Dreams are the fundamental experience of the fundamental force/energy of physics. We originate at/from the center of the human body. Dreams are a linked center of body experience. I showed this.
Clearly, I have unified gravity, inertia, and electromagnetism.

Hi Cormac,
I like your blog. I think you would be completely justified if you disabled (and deleted!) comments for this page though! :)
