Description
This book presents a new approach to the subject of cosmology.
It fully exploits Einstein's theory of general relativity.
It is found that the most general formal expression of the theory replaces the (10-component) tensor formalism with a (16-component) quaternion formalism.
This leads to a unified field theory, where one field incorporates gravitation and electromagnetism.
The theory predicts an oscillating universe cosmology with a spiral configuration.
Dark matter is explained in terms of a sea of particle-antiparticle pairs, each in a particular (derived) ground state.
This leads to an explanation for the separation between matter and antimatter in the universe.
There is a brief discussion of black holes and pulsars.
The final chapter delves into philosophical considerations such as the different types of 'truth', positivism versus realism and a discussion of the role of the Mach principle in physics and cosmology.
