Do you have serious doubts about “modern physics”?
Do you question the Big Bang, Black Holes, Worm Holes, the Nuclear Theory of the Atom, Quantum Mechanics, Neutron Stars, Quarks?
Do you question the “Standard Model” of Particle Physics and doubt the existence of the Higgs Boson?
You’ve come to the right place! The Reciprocal System replaces all of the above with
a completely unified, rational, general theory of the universe!
Yes, the Reciprocal System is a “Theory of Everything!”
Therefore, the Reciprocal System supercedes all other theories–
All physical quantities in the Reciprocal System are expressed solely in space-time terms! See for yourself!
Dr. Ronald W. Satz
Policy Statement: You could read 100 books on Quantum Mechanics and still not be able to calculate the interatomic distance, specific heat, enthalpy, entropy, thermal expansion, compressibility, and numerous other properties of elements, compounds, and mixtures. But you could with the Reciprocal System of physical theory created by scientist-engineer Dewey B. Larson and presented in his numerous books, including The Structure of the Physical Universe, The Case Against the Nuclear Atom, Beyond Newton, New Light on Space and Time, Quasars and Pulsars, Nothing But Motion, The Neglected Facts of Science, The Universe of Motion, Basic Properties of Matter, and Beyond Space and Time.
The Founder and Chair of the International Society of Unified Science, Dr. Ronald W. Satz, is currently working to computerize all Reciprocal System calculations into one easy-to-use database package. Obviously this project will take many years to complete. This blog will provide an aperiodic progress report for potential users of this software package. Dr. Satz is the author of The Unmysterious Universe–a primer on the Reciprocal System–and over 50 papers on the theory (listed here). The book is available from Amazon.com here.
Other purported Reciprocal System Web sites allow amateurs (i.e., non-scientists, non-engineers) to post. Unfortunately these individuals lack the requisite understanding of conventional physics and the Reciprocal System to comment intelligently and thus sow confusion in the minds of many who might be interested in a new, unified, general, and valid theory of the universe. In contrast, this blog is for serious, degreed scientists and engineers only. Comments may be sent to Dr. Satz at transpower@aol.com. If they are of general interest, they may be included in the archived posts.

Reciprocal System Database Screen Shots as of November 12, 2011 (please left click on each to zoom in):
News Flash (12/11/2011): Section 1 of Dr. Satz’s new paper, “Theory of Subatomic and Atomic Masses and Half-Lives,” is now available. Unlike conventional theory, this paper provides purely linear equations to calculate the masses of material subatoms and atoms!
News Flash (10/01/2011): Dr. Satz’s new paper, “Theory of Faster Than Light Neutrinos,” is now available–this solves the conunbrum of the recently-reported CERN experiment which shows that neutrinos can move faster than light. Only the Reciprocal System is capable of providing the solution!
News Flash (09/11/2011): All seven sections of Dr. Satz’s latest paper, “Theory of Dielectrics, Diamagnets, Paramagnets, and Ferromagnets, including Calculation of Electric and Magnetic Susceptibilities” are now available for free download! This includes a new analysis of six electrical circuits: DC and AC RC, RL, and RLC circuits. The Reciprocal System is compared with conventional theory, and a new crucial experiment is proposed: for circuits containing a capacitor, the Reciprocal System and conventional theory calculate very different voltages and currents. Once conventional electrical theory falls, the nuclear theory of the atom falls, which then causes Quantum Mechanics to fall and brings down quark theory and neutron star theory, etc. See for yourself! Note: The sixth section of the paper contains a Supplement providing a new explanation of the Stern-Gerlach Experiment! Note: The seventh section of the paper fully explains ferromagnetism–something that Quantum Mechanics has never done.

Revision History / Notes:
12/11/2011: uploaded section 1 of “Theory of Subatomic and Atomic Masses and Half-Lives.”
11/12/2011: uploaded jpg of the database screen for electric and magnetic calculations; all equations and data from the Mathcad/Excel work have been successfully transferred to the Reciprocal System Database (written in Filemaker Developer); this completes the work on the electric and magnetic properties of matter (at least for the time being)
10/31/2011: uploaded second draft of “Theory of Dielectrics, Diamagnets, Paramagnets, and Ferromagnets, including Calculation of Electric and Magnetic Susceptibilities”; corrected various typos.
10/01/2011: uploaded first draft of “Theory of Fast Neutrinos”–this provides the theoretical explanation of faster than light neutrinos observed in the recently-reported CERN experiment
09/22/2011: Members of ISUS are often asked how Einstein’s theories relate to the Reciprocal System. Answer: the Reciprocal System is in agreement with some of Einstein’s concepts and rejects others. Specifically, the Reciprocal System accepts Einstein’s criticism of the “ether”, his criticism of Quantum Mechanics, his famous equation E=mc2, his work on Brownian motion and the photoelectric effect, his Principle of Equivalence between inertial and gravitational mass, and the Lorentz equations (although we place all the variation on time, not both space and time). However, the Reciprocal System rejects the notions that all motion is purely relative, that mass increases with velocity, and that space is curved. This latter concept is as faulty as would be the idea of curved time. The deflection of a photon near a massive body, like the sun, is often used as support for curved space, but Larson has a much better explanation (The Neglected Facts of Science, p. 36):
”The photon has no mass, and therefore no gravitational motion toward a massive aggregate, a star, for instance. But the gravitational motion of the star is distributed scalar motion, and this scalar motion of the star toward the photon (AB) is inherently nothing more than a decrease in the distance between the objects. It can equally well appear in the reference system as a motion of the photon toward the star (BA). On the basis of probability, the total motion is divided between the two alternatives. The total motion of the star toward the photon is distributed among so many mass units that the motion of each is unobservable, but the photon is a single unit, and it is deflected a small, but measurable, amount toward the star.”
09/11/2011: completed first draft of “Theory of Dielectrics, Diamagnets, Paramagnets, and Ferromagnets, including Calculation of Electric and Magnetic Susceptibilities”–this paper is a 303 page Mathcad document (saved as a PDF), with 150 equations, 42 figures, and 8 tables; Quantum Mechanics is now dead. (Oh, and if you’re wondering how the Reciprocal System explains the famous “two-slit experiment,” here’s how: each photon (a linear vibration) goes through one and only one slit. Each slit perturbs each photon passing through so that the photon moves from its original progressing space unit to another progressing space unit–and these are distributed over all vectorial directions. This then causes, of course, the interference of the photons coming from the two slits which is seen on the target screen.)
08/11/2011: uploaded first six sections of “Theory of Dielectrics, Diamagnets, Paramagnets, and Ferromagnets, including Calculation of Electric and Magnetic Susceptibilities”–see above
07/12/2011: uploaded first five sections of “Theory of Dielectrics, Diamagnets, Paramagnets, and Ferromagnets, including Calculation of Electric and Magnetic Susceptibilities”–see above
05/25/2011: Dr. Rainer Huck (Salt Lake City, UT) has agreed, in a telephone conversation with Dr. Satz, to conduct the capacitor experiments as proposed by Dr. Satz. The Reciprocal System says that the energy stored in an ordinary capacitor is directly proportional to the voltage (1/2 x C x V x conv_const), whereas conventional theory says the energy stored is proportional to the square of the voltage (1/2 x C x V^2). Dr. Huck says, “But please be patient–this will take some time….” The conv_const = 4.9412 if C is in farads, V is in volts, and E is in joules.
05/15/2011: uploaded first four sections of “Theory of Dielectrics, Diamagnets, Paramagnets, and Ferromagnets, including Calculation of Electric and Magnetic Susceptibilities”–see above
03/23/2011: uploaded first three sections of “Theory of Dielectrics, Diamagnets, Paramagnets, and Ferromagnets, including Calculation of Electric and Magnetic Susceptibilities”–see above
01/18/2011: uploaded PDF of Figure 17 of The Unmysterious Universe–the Grand Cycle of the Universe; still working on the calculation of electric and magnetic susceptibilities and studying the atomic and molecular beam experiments; note: conventional physics says that these experiments reveal underlying atomic or molecular electric and magnetic moments, whereas the Reciprocal System says that the fields induce electric and magnetic charges in the atoms or molecules!
01/04/2011: uploaded PDF of seven papers describing the proposal for a crucial experiment
11/13/2010: uploaded metaphysics paper; still studying Von Hippel’s works
08/17/2010: still working on the paper listed below; the works of Van Vleck, Von Hippel, Bhatnagar, Stoner, and Selwood have been very helpful in understanding conventional theory, as well as the experimental data–these authors, from the 1930′s, 1940′s, and 1950′s, are much less dogmatic than more contemporary authors and actually express doubt about the validity of various aspects of Quantum Mechanics!
04/08/2010: start of work on first draft of ”Theory of Dielectrics, Diamagnets, Paramagnets, and Ferromagnets, including Calculation of Electric and Magnetic Susceptibilities”–this will take many months to complete; in the meantime, ponder this: the conventional time constants for electric circuits include RC and sqr(LC), where R = resistance, C = capacitance, L = inductance–but in the Reciprocal System the correct time constants are RC/V and sqr(LC/V), where V = the appropriate voltage; hence we now have another crucial test! Of course, L/R is OK…
02/21/2010: completion of first draft of “Theory of Thermoelectricity, Thermomagnetism, and Thermal Resistivity”
01/10/2010: completion of third draft of “Theory of Electrical Resistivity”; start of first draft of “Theory of Thermoelectricity, Thermomagnetism, and Thermal Resistivity”
12/20/2009: addition of figure captions and section numbers, correction of resistivity calculation for boron, and elimination of typos in “Theory of Electrical Resistivity”
11/24/2009: publication here of the first comprehensive Reciprocal System treatment of electrical resistivity for metallic and semiconductor elements and compounds and alloys
08/26/2009: derivation of first, accurate, complete equation for electrical resistivity of the 73 known elemental conductors; proceeding to work on insulators and semiconductors; will not add display until all electrical and thermoelectric properties are calculated for elements and compounds and alloys
04/21/2009: addition of mean forces on unit cell faces to compressibility display
02/07/2009: completion of valence calculations of the elements and over 1000 inorganic and organic compounds!
07/28/2008: launch of data base, with displays and calculations for interatomic distance calculation, specific heat, energy/entropy, thermal expansion, and compressibility!
