Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesQuantum Uncertainty and the Fifth DimensionPaul S. WessonIf the world has an extra dimension, the motion of a particle in spacetime may be slightly modified, producing a correlation between the momentum and position similar to that familiar from the uncertainty relation in quantum mechanics. …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 19 Aug 2015 · 13,271 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesLOOKING FOR THE FIFTH DIMENSIONPaul S. WessonAn exact solution shows that a new kind of wave can propagate through the Einstein vacuum if there is an extra dimension, thereby providing a way to test the dimensionality of the universe. …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2014 · 8,488 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesTransformity: The Dependence of the Laws of Physics on Higher-Dimensional Coordinate TransformationsPaul S. WessonIn unified field theories with more than four dimensions, the form of the equations of physics in spacetime depends in general on the choice of coordinates in higher dimensions. The reason is that the group of coordinate transformations in (say) five dimensions is broader than in spacetime. This kind of gauge dependence is illustrated by two examples: a cosmological model … …Space Science International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 10 Dec 2013 · 9,627 accessesView PDFCite
