Alpha Head on Collision with a Fixed Gold Nucleus, Taking into Account the Relativistic Rest Mass Variation as Implied by Mass-Energy Equivalence
(Polish Acad Sciences inst Physics, 2014) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Arik, M.; Kholmetskii, A.; Altintas, A. A.; Ozaydin, F.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
We reformulate the Rutherford scattering of alpha particle for a head on collision, taking into account the rest mass variation of the particle, as implied by the energy conservation law. Our relativistic reformulation (which includes the energy conservation) constitutes a new example for the breakdown of the Lorentz invariance. Briefly speaking, even at rest or during the whole scattering process, the distance between the alpha particle and the gold nucleus is not invariant but depends on the frame of the observer attached to either object. According to our relativistic reformulation, we also provide a new set of Lorentz transformations.

Analyses of Mossbauer experiments in a rotating system: Proper and improper approaches
(Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2020) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Yarman, Tolga; Yarman, O.; Arik, M.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
We examine various attempts to interpret the results of modern Mossbauer rotor experiments and show that the most recent approach developed by Podosenov et al. (0000) to understand these results implies an experimental configuration which has never been realized in the known experiments on this subject, and thus leaves the problem of the physical interpretation of the observed energy shift between emission and absorption lines in a rotating system under the framework of general relativity open.

Comparison of traditional and synchrotron beam methodologies in Mossbauer experiments in a rotating system
(int Union Crystallography, 2021) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Yarman, T.; Yarman, O.; Arik, M.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
Recent Mossbauer experiments in a rotating system reported by others in the literature have involved the application of synchrotron radiation onto a spinning semi-circular resonant absorber. Here, the physical interpretation of these methodologies, and their alleged performance improvement, is analyzed in the light of our own team's past experience based instead on the traditional laboratory setup. It is shown that a number of fundamental shortcomings in the approach reported in the literature deprives it of any practical significance with respect to the improvement of the technique of Mossbauer rotor experiments with a synchrotron source. It is concluded that, at present, only Mossbauer experiments relying on an ordinary compact source of resonant radiation and a resonant absorber both fixed on the rotor promise to provide crucial information with respect to the physical origin of the observed energy shift between emitted and absorbed resonant radiation in a rotating system.

Doppler effect in rotating systems and Mossbauer rotor experiments
(Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2021) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Yarman, T.; Yarman, O.; Arik, M.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
We address once more the problem of the physical interpretation of the Mossbauer effect in a rotating system in the view of the recently discovered extra energy shift (EES) between emitted and absorbed resonant radiation, which emerges in addition to the usual second order Doppler shift for an orbiting absorber. We highlight that both fractional components of the total energy shift have the same sign and correspond to the blueshift of the resonant radiation propagating from the rotational axis to the rotor rim. We indicate a possible way of understanding the origin of the EES in terms of combining metric effects in rotating systems with the quantum mechanical description of resonant nuclei confined in crystal cells by taking into account the recoil-free essence of the Mossbauer effect, where no energy is transmitted to the source (absorber) during the emission (absorption) of resonant radiation.

Elaborations on Mossbauer rotor experiments with synchrotron radiation and with usual resonant sources
(int Union Crystallography, 2018) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Yarman, T.; Yarman, O.; Arik, M.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
A comparative analysis of Mossbauer experiments in a rotating system between a recent application using synchrotron radiation [Friedman et al. (2016). Eur. Phys. Lett.114, 50010; Friedman et al. (2017). J. Synchrotron Rad.24, 661-666] and usual sources of resonant radiation is carried out. The principal methodological difference between these experiments can be related to the fact that in the former set of experiments the source of the resonant radiation rests in a laboratory frame whereas for the latter set of experiments the source is attached to a rotating system. It is concluded that the utilization of ordinary Mossbauer sources remains the most promising path for further research appertaining to the Mossbauer effect in rotating systems.

Frequency difference between two clocks at Tokyo Skytree: Contribution of Earth's self-rotation
(Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2020) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Kholmetskii, A. L.; Yarman, O.; Arik, M.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
We focus on a fundamental issue about the physical meaning of the results of the experiment by Takamoto et al. (2020). Specifically, one must address the time dilation effect associated with the motion of the clocks around the self-rotational axis of Earth as seen by a remote observer free of such rotation. We accentuate the importance of taking into account this effect in the Tokyo Skytree experiment. This is especially relevant in the light of the results gathered from recent measurements of the Mossbauer effect in a rotating system. (c) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

LIGO's "GW150914 signal" reproduced under YARK theory of gravity
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2017) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Kholmetskii, A. L.; Yarman, O.; Marchal, C. B.; Arik, M.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
The widely publicized "GW150914 event" that was recently detected by the LIGO Scientific Collaboration is given as confirmation of gravitational waves (GWs) predicted by Albert Einstein in his general theory of relativity (GTR), although the extremely weak intensity of this signal does not allow confirmation of all of the specific properties of GWs predicted in GTR. In the present contribution, we provide an alternative explanation of the LIGO signal without GWs under the framework of Yarman-Arik-Kholmetskii (YARK) gravitation theory, which has garnered considerable success during the past years in accounting for landmark astrophysical observations so far thought to confirm GTR, as well as recent laboratory-scale experiments that were shown to be at odds with GTR. According to YARK, the coalescence of super-massive bodies in a distant binary system would induce a related alteration of the wavelength of the laser beam used in the LIGO Michelson-Morley interferometer, as well as the emergence of mechanical stresses in the suspended mirrors. We show that the latter effect turns out to be negligible, and thus, the variation of the phase alone of the laser beam in the output of the Michelson-Morley interferometer suffices to describe the amplitude and the shape of the observed LIGO signal. In addition, the binary merger necessitates a rest mass decrease in YARK (which we calculated to be about 3.1 solar masses on the whole) that we predict should be released via electromagnetic radiation emission according to our theory. We point out that electromagnetic radiation of exactly the same kind is in fact responsible, instead of GWs, for the energy loss in the Hulse-Taylor binary system. Our numerical results thus well match the GW150914 interference pattern without involving any GWs hypothesis.

Mossbauer experiments in a rotating system: Recent errors and novel interpretation
(Springer Heidelberg, 2015) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Kholmetskii, A. L.; Arik, M.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
We consider the energy shift between emission and absorption lines in the Mossbauer experiments in a rotating system in the view of a recently reported extra component of such a shift, in addition to the usual relativistic time dilation effect, expressed by the inequality k > 0.5 in the expression for the relative energy shift Delta E/E = -ku (2)/c (2) (u is the orbital velocity, and c the light velocity in vacuum). We consider the recent attempts of re-interpretation of the Mossbauer rotor experiments, showing their incorrectness, and analyze the proposed explanations of the physical origin of this extra energy shift. This way we stress that the energy of nuclei located in crystal cells should be determined via relativistic quantum mechanics, involving the geometry of a rotating disc. We show that the standard theory yields k = 1/2; applying the YARK gravitational theory, we obtain k = 2/3 in a perfect agreement with experimental data.

Novel Mossbauer experiment in a rotating system and the extra-energy shift between emission and absorption lines
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2016) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Kholmetskii, A. L.; Arik, M.; Akkus, B.; Oktem, Y.; Susam, L. A.; Missevitch, O. V.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
We present the results of a novel Mossbauer experiment in a rotating system, implemented recently at Istanbul University, which yields the coefficient k = 0.69 +/- 0.02 within the frame of the expression for the relative energy shift between emission and absorption lines Delta E/E = ku(2)/c(2). This result turned out to be in quantitative agreement with an experiment achieved earlier on the subject matter (Kholmetskii et al. Phys. Scr. 79, 065007 (2009)), and once again strongly pointed to the inequality k > 0.5, revealed originally in (Kholmetskii et al. Phys. Scr. 77, 035302 (2008)) via the re-analysis of Kundig's experiment (Kundig, Phys. Rev. 129, 2371 (1963)). A possible explanation of the deviation of the coefficient k from the relativistic prediction k = 0.5 is discussed.

Novel Mossbauer Experiment in a Rotating System: Extra Energy Shift Confirmed
(Amer inst Physics, 2015) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Yarman, T.; Arik, M.; Missevitch, O. V.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
We report the result of a novel Mossbauer experiment in a rotating system, implemented in Istanbul University, which yields the coefficient k=0.69-0.02 in the expression for the relative energy shift between emission and absorption lines Delta E/E=ku(2)/c(2). This result is in a quantitative agreement with a recent experiment on the same subject (A.L. Kholmetskii, et al., Phys. Scr. 79, 065007 (2009)) and strongly supports the inequality k>0.5, revealed at the first time in (A. L. Kholmetskii, et al., Phys. Scr. 77, 035302 (2008)) via the re-analysis of Kundig experiment (W. Kundg, Phys. Rev. 129, 2371 (1963). Possible explanation of the deviation of the coefficient k from the relativistic prediction k=0.5 is discussed.

A Novel Photon Model - Featuring an Internal Dynamics along with an Amplitude of the Oscillating Particle of Light
(Polish Acad Sciences inst Physics, 2014) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Yesilyurt, C.; Arik, M.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
We construct a novel model for a single photon, bearing an internal dynamics. In our model, the photon, while travelling with a speed very close to c (the ultimate speed of light in empty space), is considered to oscillate, in its own frame, with its given frequency f. The envelope of the photon's instantaneous maximum amplitude, which we will call from here on straight "amplitude", is assumed to travel with exactly c, which makes that the center of the photon ought to travel with a speed little less than c. It is interesting to add that, in the present approach, the higher the frequency of the photon at hand, the narrower is its amplitude of oscillation. It is further assumed that the photon has a rest mass which we call "kernel", carrying the translational motion of it. This allows us to estimate the rest mass of the given photon, based on adopted initial conditions of the early universe, based on the recent Yarman and Kholmetskii model (resolving, amongst other things, the dark energy quest). One then comes out with the result that all observable photons (i.e. either high energy gamma rays or very low frequency radio waves), travel practically with the same speed, which is virtually c, the measured ultimate speed. A model regarding the internal dynamics in question is further offered.

A PREDICTION REGARDING THE WEAKENING OF THE BLUE SHIFT OF LIGHT FROM GEOSYNCHRONOUS SATELLITES
(Turkic World Mathematical Soc, 2011) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Arik, M.; Kholmetskii, A. L.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
t. We base the present approach, on an alternative theory of gravitation, consisting essentially on the law of energy conservation broadened to embody the mass & energy equivalence of the Special Theory of Relativity, and remedying, known problems and incompatibilities, associated with the actually reigning conception. The mere rotation problem of say, a sphere, can well be undertaken, along the same idea. Accordingly, we consider the problem of gravity created by a rotating celestial body. Finally we apply our results to the case of a geosynchronous satellite, which is, schematically speaking, nothing but a clock placed on a considerably high tower. The approach ironically furnishes the Newtons law of motion, which however we derive, based on just static forces, and not an acceleration, governing a motion. (There is anyway no motion for a geosynchronous satellite, when observed from Earth.) We predict accordingly that, the blue shift of light from a geosynchronous satellite on an orbit of radius rGs should be softened as much as (omega(2)/2c(2)) (r(Gs)(2) - R-2) as compared to what is expected classically; here omega Earths self rotation angular momentum, R Earths radius, and c the speed of light in empty space. We hope, the validity of this unforeseen prediction, can soon be checked out.

Quantal Theory of Gravity (QTG): Essential points and implications
(Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2023) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Yarman, T.; Kholmetskii, A. L.; Arik, M.; Yarman, O.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
Quantal Theory of Gravity(QTG) is a new undertaking that describes the behavior of projectile-like and wave-like particles in a gravitational field - and, in fact, any field the object at hand interacts with - on the basis of the law of energy conservation. QTG successfully combines metric and dynamical methodologies via a conjoint quantum mechanical formulation. Accordingly, a wave-like test object consisting of a quantal part and a corpuscular part, which start as concentric and identical with regards to their energies, must get torn apart when it engages gravity. Such a test object should then better be treated separately as a two-entity problem. But we nevertheless show that the said problem can be reduced to a single-entity problem. This straightforwardly delivers a new quantal equation of motion, which points to a novel metric expression of space-time wherefrom one can reverse-engineer all of the findings of the past century. Said feature constitutes one of the principal novelties in this contribution. Thus, QTG and the General Theory of Relativity (GTR) yield, within the measurement precision, indistinguishable results for classical problems, except singularities, through though totally different means. What is more, QTG separately explains the propagation of projectile-like objects such as highenergy ?-quanta, in which case, we predict the nullification of gravitational attraction. This constitutes another principal novelty of QTG corroborated by a recent experiment. Finally, we show how GTR could have so successfully coped with the known classically measured results, yet only as a consequence of the quantal application of QTG and its single-entity approach. That constitutes the final and most cardinal novelty we herein bring to attention.

Quantum phases for moving charges and dipoles in an electromagnetic field and fundamental equations of quantum mechanics
(Nature Portfolio, 2018) Yarman, Nuh Tolga; Yarman, T.; Missevitch, O. V.; Arik, M.; Enerji Sistemleri Mühendisliği / Energy Systems Engineering
We analyze the quantum phase effects for point-like charges and electric (magnetic) dipoles under a natural assumption that the observed phase for a dipole represents the sum of corresponding phases for charges composing this dipole. This way we disclose two novel quantum phases for charged particles, which we named as complementary electric Aharonov-Bohm (A-B) phase and complementary magnetic A-B phase, respectively. We reveal that these phases are derived from the Schrodinger equation only in the case, where the operator of momentum is re-defined via the replacement of the canonical momentum of particle by the sum of its mechanical momentum and interactional field momentum for a system of charged particles. The related alteration should be introduced to Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations, too, and implications of this modification are discussed.
