A fluid mechanical explanation of dark matter
Matter in the universe has become “dark” or “missing” through misconceptions about the fluid mechanics of gravitational structure formation. The linear Jeans (1902, 1929) theory gives vast overestimates (by factors of trillions or more) for the initial condensation mass of baryonic matter, and vast underestimates (by factors of trillions or more) for the initial condensation mass of the non-bar...

متن کاملGrounding magnitudes
Over the last few decades, different studies have been directed toward a better understanding of how humans use perceptual information in order to estimate magnitudes. Converging data from different research domains indicate that the processing of time, space, and other quantities frequently unfold together in the human brain and cognition. The idea of a common metric that regulates the ability...
