The Energetic and Entropic Determinants of Fracture by Thomas Lee Abshier, ND, and Copilot, 6/21/2025 Thomas: When an object breaks, what is the principle that is being satisfied? Is it an increase of entropy by breaking into more possible configurations, or is it...

The Shape of the Wavefront Emanations from the Double Slit Experiment by Thomas Lee Abshier, ND, and Poe Assistant 6/20/2025 Thomas: when the photon enters both of the double slits, the wave function propagates from its source as a wave packet, and hence I think...

Is Gravity mediated by Geometry or a Medium? by Thomas Lee Abshier, ND and AI 6/3/2025 Do the General Relativity equations imply that a force acts at each point in space (i.e., an absolute value at each point) or over an infinitesimally small increment of space? Or...
