The Particles of the Universe Kindle Edition

by Jeff Yee (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.0 out of 5 stars 498 ratings
The universe is simply energy. Everything around us, including matter, is energy. A deep look into the mysteries of the subatomic world – the particles that make up the atom – provides answers to basic questions about how the universe works.

To solve the future of mankind’s energy needs we need to understand the basic building blocks of the universe, including the atom and its parts. By exploring the subatomic world we’ll find more answers to our questions about time, forces like gravity and the matter that surrounds us. More importantly, we’ll find new ways to tap into the energy that exists around us to power our growing needs. In a new branch of particle physics, where tiny particles are thought of as energy waves, we find new answers that may help us in our quest to find alternative energy sources.

* January 2018 Update: This first book in The Particles of the Universe series serves as a call to action to renew support for the aether and it summarizes works from physicists working on the wave structure of matter. The second book in the series is now available (The Particles of the Universe 2: Disrupted), proving elements of the original hypothesis of matter's wave properties. The proof includes calculations of: atomic orbital distances and photon energies for the first twenty atomic elements, particle mass calculations, derivations of fundamental physical constants and derivations of existing energy and force equations (quantum and classical) from one base equation.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 February 2013

    An eminently readable, logical and well argued alternative to the convoluted theories of the more complex Quantum Mechanics' attempt to determine and explain the basic particles from which the Universe is constructed.
    Yes, it re-introduces the concept of an "aether" through which energy flows in space but this, in itself, could help to explain why space is neither totally empty nor at absolute zero. Conversely, the concept of the aether removes the need to discover a gravitron, for which no evidence has yet been found other than, perhaps, a gap in the equivalent to the Periodic Table for Quantum Mechanics' particles.
    This alternative approach removes the need for logically absurd explanations such as those for the results of the double-slit experiment and its description of the likely appearance of an electron agrees amazingly well with the photograph of a single electron taken at Lund University.
    The simple algebra introduced by Yee was welcome in support of his text as was his provision of units for (most of) the variables used, although there is an error at Kindle location 449 (27%) whereby the radius of an electron is given in Kilogrammes rather than Metres. No other typographical errors were detected.
    It would be interesting to have Yee's approached compared with that of String Theory, to which it appears closer than to Quantum Mechanics. Whichever theory, current or yet to be developed, proves to be the most reliable, Yee's description of the "Wave Structure Matter" theory is enjoyable, well presented and a highly credible alternative both to Quantum Mechanics and the String Theory to which it appear most closely allied but without the logical absurdities of the latter.

    Good understanding of physics is displayed, and told in a way that is not too mind boggling. If like me you are interested in science but sometimes find the technical jargon a bit difficult to deal with, then you will probably enjoy this book. Having said that, you will still need at least a basic understanding of physics to be able to grasp what is being said.

    I started reading this and realised I had forgotten most of what I had learned half a century ago about particle physics. I reverted to my old textbooks and they led me all the way back to Einstein and his Relativity theories. I have not got back to this book yet but it certainly started some cogs in my head that had been dormant for too long. For that alone I rate it 5 stars.

    Yee makes a well structured and researched book but note this is not a text book but rather a theory proposed by the author (albeit based on research on similar theory).

    I don't claim to be a particle physicist and enjoyed reading it but felt I had to take some of what I read with caution.

    A different view on sub atomic particles and quantum ideas, and what they are made of.
    No Quarks here but an energy concept.
    He does seem to accept the Aether! Long thrown out by science.
    That apart its quiet interesting with lots of good internet links.

    1.0 out of 5 stars a product manager's take on unsolved physical problems
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 July 2015
    Verified Purchase
    Unfortunately I have to agree with the negative reviews. This book is not a good introductory book (as stated by other reviews) as it will not give any information on what is the accepted way of thinking in physics today. Instead, old theories (I had to read part of the introduction several times to make absolutely sure the that the book is going to deal exclusively with ether and it was not just a though experiment) are revisited which have been discredited over the last century. That does not mean that he is wrong, in fact it has happen that theories have been not accepted only to find out that they were to advanced for their times. However, it is also worth mentioning that those people were usually brilliant in their field and have dedicated their lives to the study of that respected field. I do not wish to cause any offense but according to the author's linkedin profile his most endorsements were for management, marketing and mobile applications and infact none physics related (no educational informaton given). In the end you get a book full of wikipedia references and quite frankely that is were he lost me because this book does not even adhere to popular science book stanrdards.

    This book is worth reading for the future scientist who want to solve the energy crisis of our world. This book is good for those people who realise that our current technology is not enough to cater the energy(electricity) requirements of our world and wish to do something in regard to this. This book is great for beginners. All the technical terms and concepts are explained in easy to understand language. It's a must have book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing and thought provoking new theory on the particles that make up our universe
    Reviewed in the United States on 30 April 2023
    Verified Purchase
    Science used to be more welcoming to unique theories like the one offered here. Currently anything out of the scope of the beliefs of the elitist scientific community is summarily dismissed. Not being a particle physicist (like the author I am but a lowly engineer), I have no real idea if this theory is even possibly correct, but I commend the author for coming up with it. Most of the 1 Star reviews were expecting a book on conventional particle physics theories, half of the rest call it garbage without providing even a single example of why it’s so. I was going to write a longer review to include the ridiculousness of conventional particle physics theory, but the previous review by Laura Collins says it all already (and more eloquently).
