[Colin2B]

Hello Colin2B. It is with great pleasure that I can now announce, after slightly more than a year, that the final version of my paper, "General Relativity: Effects in Time as Causation", has been accepted by the journal.

Congratulations, excellent news. A new theory making it to publication is quite something. Can you link to the journal when it’s published?
I’ll read with interest.

Can you link to the journal when it’s published?

Thank you. I will most certainly post the link.

A new theory making it to publication is quite something.

In his acceptance, the Editor-in-Chief said:
"Your manuscript is basically a re-think and re-write of the application of the Einstein theory to our cosmological Universe. In traditional discussions of the same material, the literature is based upon a clear distinction of the experience of the local observer and a hypothetical distant observer, with the two related to one another by Lorentz transformations. Your treatment is basically the theory from the view-point of just the distant observer (though with exceptions). I plan to accept this paper because this change in viewpoint may be easier for some readers to understand....."

I would also have mentioned your focus on the progression through time as being an essential part of understanding relativity.

Thank you, Colin2B.

It was my conception of this evolution of events in the "forward direction of time" that finally let me proceed with this theory. It explains why gravity has only direction and why it overpowers the other forces even though it appears to be so weak. The rest of the theory fell into place after this initial conception.

For it to be correct, however, I had to be able to show the Hubble shift as being due to time dilation, which is the basis of this thread. Though actually a simple concept, it took me 3 years to finally be able to derive it properly due to the misconceptions presently portrayed by currently accepted theory.

Once I did that, it allowed me to complete relativity, explain galactic rotation velocities, and tie quantum physics and astrophysics together.

I think the Editor's comments imply the "forward direction of time" aspect, as the paper describes the view of what an outside, in his words, "distant", observer sees when looking at the evolving universal spacetime (quantum) continuum (energy field) as a whole.

Hello Colin2B. It is with great pleasure that I can now announce, after slightly more than a year, that the final version of my paper, "General Relativity: Effects in Time as Causation", has been accepted by the journal.

Hey Colin2B. The paper was published today in the Journal of Cosmology, Vol 26. I know this because I am also the new Assistant Editor and Assistant Webmaster of the journal.
Go figure! 
The final version, which replaces black holes with MECOs and clarifies a few more points can be found here: http://journalofcosmology.com/JOC26/General%20Relativity%20and%20Effects%20in%20Time%20as%20Causation%20JofC.pdf

As the paper deals with spacetime as a whole, and not just the Hubble shift, I will now be shifting this thread to the "What is Space?" thread for any further discussion.
Thanks for your support, Colin2B.
Cass

Just an update, on Oct 3rd the Journal of Cosmology began its first new volume in 3 years based on my model.
Vol. #27: "Time Dilation Cosmology in the Evolving Spacetime/Quantum Continuum: General Relativity & the Hubble Shift"

Author's note: This is a derivative of the acceleration constant IF the shift is due to acceleration. It is not meant to be a proof of the acceleration.

Acceleration has the units of d/t/t or acceleration is one part distance and two parts time. This has the same units as space-time plus time; d-t plus t.  The result of universal acceleration would be both red-blue shift caused by relative velocity; d/t, plus a secondary time; t affect. This is simple dimensional analysis.

If you look at the second law, the entropy of the universe has to increase. While entropy needs to absorb free energy to increase. The net affect is although energy is conserved during an entropy increase, net useable energy is being removed from the universe. The conserved energy gets tied up into entropy and it cannot be used again for other things, since net entropy of the universe  has to always net increase.

The second law implies we should notice a constant loss of useable energy from the universe; red shift. A red shift would lower the potential of all energy quanta. If UV red shifts to IR we can no longer break chemical bonds. We can only bend, rotate and vibrate them. This would reflect a net  loss of once usable energy.

Entropy is the closest concept to time. Both time and entropy move in one direction or both increase to the future. Neither cycle like a wave. There appears to be connection between universal time and the second law, with the net affect being that part of the red shift reflects unusable energy going into entropy, which we mentally extrapolate as acceleration and passage of time within space-time

An interesting experiment would be to take large cylinders of compressed gas, at ambient conditions into space. We open the values and allow the gas to expand into space. An expanding gas will get colder as the heat energy is absorbed by entropy. If we did not tell anyone what we were doing, but have them look at the cylinders into space though an IR sensitive telescope, it will look like a moving red shifting  object due to relative motion. Maybe dark energy did this, since the energy absorb into entropy becomes dark; net unusable.

Acceleration has the units of d/t/t or acceleration is one part distance and two parts time. This has the same units as space-time plus time; d-t plus t.

This is true of acceleration through space, not an acceleration in the rate of time.
The proof that the acceleration in time exists within living things is right outside your window. Trees (all plants) grow "up", against the gravitational direction of evolution. The only way to move "up" in a gravitational field is through acceleration.

There is a webmaster problem at the Journal of Cosmology. I have been assured this will be sorted out shortly.

In the meantime, my paper can still be found in its original location at http://www.journalofcosmology.com/JOC26/General%20Relativity%20and%20Effects%20in%20Time%20as%20Causation%20JofC.pdf

I am very sad I must make this post, but I find I now must do so, even though I have been hoping things would be different by now.

After my paper was published in the Journal of Cosmology, I became the webmaster, Public Information Officer and acted as the defacto managing editor, receiving and screening papers before I forwarded them to the Editor-in-Chief and Executive Editor.

Unfortunately, the Executive Editor, Carl Gibson, who is in his mid-80's, is having what one could politely call "end of life issues". As the server account where the journal is hosted is in his name, he has managed to gain total control of the journal and has begun deleting papers he feels do not belong in the journal, even though the papers went through the review process and the authors had paid their Reviewer and Publication fees.

Needless to say, this is causing great consternation for the Editor-in-Chief, Rudloph Schild, who is struggling to find a solution to the problem.

I have been targeted by Carl because I refused to post a political rant by him, at the insistence of Rudolph Schild, who, of course, does not want political papers in the journal. It is currently the only paper in Vol. 27, which used to be dedicated to my model of the universe.

Today he had his new assistant webmaster change the name of my paper so the remaining links to it in Vol. 26, where it first appeared, do not work.

6/26 update:
They restored my link within the journal on 6/26. The new link is http://journalofcosmology.com/JOC26/General_Relativity_and_Effects_in_Time_as_Causation_JofC.pdf

The paper can always be found through a link from my thetruecosmology.com site and directly through this link here: https://www.thetruecosmology.com/General%20Relativity%20and%20Effects%20in%20Time%20as%20Causation.pdf. This is the pre-journal version which contains spiritual verbiage in the "Origins of Spacetime" section that Prof. Schild had me remove or modify for the journal version.

I am asking everyone to not trash the Journal of Cosmology due to these problems, but I suggest no one send in fees or submit papers until the situation has been resolved. It is a sad situation, more than anything else, and all papers will be restored once the situation is resolved.

Regarding my last post, one of the papers removed from the Journal of Cosmology, by Franklin N. Williams of the Theory Research Institute, is a Mathematical Way to Derive Values for the Universal Constants relating them to the fine structure constant alpha, (a), as a Continuous Equation Involving pi,(π), and the Square Root of 10, The fine structure constant, a, is an integral part of all constants involving mass and matter, if not in whole, then in part or exponential fractions. The only constants lacking the fine structure constant are the "elementary charge, 'e'", and the "permeability of a vacuum, 'µo'". It is also apparent that, according to the 2014 NIST values for all the universal constants, if alpha changes over time, then so will all the universal constants change proportionally. The changes range from one tenth to three one-thousandths, or smaller, of one percent of the values found in the 2014 CODATA Bulletin.

This is a significant paper and the Editors at the Journal of Cosmology desperately wanted it back, but everything came to a halt at the Journal of Cosmology due to the issues with the Executive Editor.

I finally told Frank I would put it up on my thetruecosmology site and do a press release for him (my astrophysicist/astronomer email list is extensive, as is my newspaper editor list).

When he said OK, and I thought about it, I thought his paper would be better in a journal so I began the Journal of Modern Cosmology on 8/28, to Explore Alternatives to the Big Bang, LCDM/CDM and Standard Model Cosmologies. It is peer reviewed and free and open access to all. I began it with just the latest version of my paper and Frank's paper as they were both peer reviewed and accepted by the Journal of Cosmology. The new journal can be found here: https://www.journalofmoderncosmology.com . 

I have also done a 36 minute video explaining some of the aspects of my model. https://www.thetruecosmology.com .
