The Question of E = mc2 and Rectification
of Einstein’s
General Relativity
C. Y. Lo
ABSTRACT
The formula E = mc2 is a
speculation that was confirmed by Nuclear fission and fusion, but is not valid
for the electromagnetic energy alone because the electromagnetic energy-stress
tensor is traceless. On the other hand, for the light rays satisfying E = mc2 necessitates the existence of a photonic tensor with an anti-gravity coupling
added to the Einstein equation with the source of an electromagnetic wave. This
is consistent with the massive dynamic case that the Einstein equation must be
rectified to the Lorentz-Levi-Einstein equation. Moreover, because the
couplings in the Einstein equation must have different signs for the dynamic
case that involves gravitational waves, the space-time singularity theorems of
Hawking and Penrose actually are irrelevant to physics. And the positive mass theorem of Schoen
and Yau is misleading. The misinterpretation of E = mc2 as
generally valid, is responsible for overlooking the charge-mass interaction,
which is crucial for the unification of gravitation and electromagnetism. This unification would be the
key to many unsolved problems in physics. General validity of E = mc2 is also in disagreement with experiments. It is pointed out that the
interpretations of E = mc^2 of both Nobel Laureates, 't Hooft and Wilczek, just
like many others, are also incorrect. Obviously their failure would contribute to overlooking
the charge-mass interaction.
