An alternative to the theory of quantum gravity, not yet discovered, is the Theory Simplied Total (TTS) proposal, which aims to unify gravity with the EM taking as a corollary essential quantum Dirac equation. Thus, this article proposes a whole program of unication in which electromagnetism chiral plays the main role. TTS is derived from the original equations of Einstein-Hilbert G µv = kT µv , where the Einstein tensor is unchanged. The EM tensor instead is chiral and the mass of the particles is electromagnetic nature. In the case of the electron the consequence of this is that, for therst time, Diracs equation is obtained from EM waves with the electriceld spatially parallel to the magneticeld. As a model of the universe an interface or membrane separation is proposed as the only location for quantum events. There are two enanciometrics regions in a closed universe, or right and left universe, connected by an element of PCT (parity, charge, time) symmetry along the interface. Einstein-Hilbert equations are studied under the chiral approach and discusses the chiral electrodynamics and gravity in Planchs era are discussed.

In this paper we will present a brief overview of e lectromagnetic properties of the media with negative permittivity and permeability, and then we will discuss some ideas about possible applications of these materials. In this w ork we discuss the chiral waves in metamaterial media. Here we study the conditions for strong chir ality which can give situations of chiral metamaterial and we propose to investigate the cond itions to obtain a metamaterials having simultaneously negative e and negative μ and very low eddy current loss.

En este trabajo se presenta una expresion de la transformacion general de Foldy-Wouthuysen a la representacion quiral de las matrices de Dirac interactuando con un campo de fermion. La hipotesis es que a traves de la multiplicacion de la matriz de Pauli por las ecuaciones quirales de Maxwell en el caso de , se obtiene la ecuacion quiral de Dirac. Esta es la prueba del teorema de que la mecanica de ondas de particula cuantica representa una electrodinamica especializada.

En este trabajo se presenta un ejemplo de una metrica especifica que geometriza explicitamente un potencial cuadrivector tipo luz (campo quiral). La geometrizacion muestra que tal vector tiene la misma estructura geometrica que un campo gravitacional Kerr. Se discute una proposicion teorica que un cuerpo rotante genera, su gravitacion y el calibre de campo tipo magnetico que puede ser identificado con un campo quiral geometrizado. Este campo quiral representa un tipo novedoso de campo que no puede ser identificado con alguno de los campos electromagneticos conocidos. Como aplicacion de esta teoria se discute la morfologia de los planetas alrededor del sol.

This work is concerned with the propagation of electromagnetic waves in isotropic chiral media and with the effects produced by a plane boundary between two such media. In analogy with the phenomena of reflection and refraction of plane electromagnetic waves in ordinary dielectrics, the kinematical and dynamical aspects of these phenomena are studied, in situations such as the intensity of the various wave components and the change in the polarization of the wave, as it crosses the boundary. As a prerequisite of this, we show that the plane wave solution must be written as a suitable superposition of the circularly polarized chiral amplitudes on both sides of the interface we elucidate, which is the appropriate set of conditions that the solution must satisfy at the boundary. We set the minimal and complete set of equations that must be solved for the coefficient amplitudes, in order to satisfy the boundary conditions. The equations can be solved explicitly for some particular cases and configurations (e.g., normal incidence), the salient features of those solutions can be analyzed in some detail, and the general solution to the equations is given as well. This work might be applied to the design of very high frequency microwaves and non symmetrical transmission lines.

Today, the global navigation satellite systems, GPS used as global positioning systems, are based on a gravitational model and hence they are only operative when several relativistic effects are taken into account. The most important relativistic effects (to order 1/c 2 ) are: the Doppler red shift of second order, due to the motion of the satellite (special relativity) and the Einstein gravitational blue shift effect of the satellite clock frequency (equivalence principle of general relativity). Both of these effects can be treated at a basic level, making for an appealing application of relativity to every life. This paper examines the significant effects that must be taken into account in the design and operation of systems GPS without resorting to the theory of special and general relativity, yielding the same results for these systems, where one of the effects can be treated with the time contraction approach proposed here and the other using the Newton’s theory as an approximation of the General Relativity. This approach allow us to propose an outline of early prediction and detection on strong earthquake phenomena.

The accepted structure of space and vacuum derives from the results of relativistic cosmology and quantum field theory. It is demonstrated that a chiral interface between enantiomeric regions of a closed universe, or a (right) R-Universe and (left) L-Universe, related by an element of PCT symmetry along the interface, represents a construct with all the attributes required of the theoretical vacuum, in-so-far as quantum behaviour is then seen to be induced by the vacuum interface. Quantum mechanics emerges as a special case of classical mechanics, rather than the latter being a subset of the former. This removes the quantum-mechanical observational problem, explains the cosmological large-number coincidences, and accounts for the anti-matter in the cosmos.

In this paper, a chiral approach is used for developing a unied theory of electromagnetic and gravityelds. The photons which satisfy Maxwells equations for an electromagnetic wave are taken as the basic physical components. The goal of the theory is to unify the phenomena of relativistic invariance, wave mechanics and pair creation with Maxwells equation to obtain an electromagneticeld theory of matter. With this theory some aspects of GPS (Global Positioning Systems) systems are discussed.
