Negative Time as Refractive Index Engineering
The phenomenon of 'negative time' observed in laser-atom experiments is not time travel but the result of altering the medium's refractive index and permittivity via resonance, allowing light to effectively travel...

SU(2) Photon Shield Theory
A theory that advanced spacecraft use conditioned electromagnetic fields (SU(2)) to create a shield that deflects all matter and radiation without resistance, effectively making the craft massless and allowing for...
