About

William H. Alsept

I am an independent researcher with a background in mechanical engineering and a long-standing interest in theoretical physics.

This site began as a place to share my papers and ideas on light, matter, gravity, and the structure of the universe. Much of that work has now been brought together into two connected books.

On the Origin of Everything is the larger work. It presents a physical theory of light, matter, gravity, and the structure of reality. It is available for pre-order now and will be released September 12.

Waveless: The End of Duality is the shorter entry point. It focuses on one part of the larger theory: light. It follows the photon through the edge, the single slit, and the double slit experiment without treating wave-particle duality as an answer.

The goal of this work is not to replace successful mathematics, but to offer a physical model for what’s happening underneath it. The predictions of modern physics are powerful. The missing piece, in my view, is a clear physical picture.

If you are new to this site, start with Waveless. If you want the full theory, continue with On the Origin of Everything.

  1. Hi William,

    My name is Anton. I’m an electrical engineer. Your conviction caught my attention on Stackexchange. Wave-particle duality is unscientific but photons are not particles, they don’t even exist at all! EM waves are oscillations. The energy is alternatingly stored as electric potential and magnetic flux. When the electric field is zero all energy is stored as flux. The flux creates a separation of electric charge that reaches a maximum when the flux is zero. The process naturally repeats and propagates.

    Any changing current or electric potential causes EM radiation and it can be weaker than the energy of a photon. Photons are not real things, it is just a description of the quantized energy atoms emit or absorb.

    You propose an intrinsic loss in the photons that cause redshift. Where would the energy go? It makse much more sense to me for a wave phenomenon has an intrinsic loss. All waves in gases, liquids and solids have losses so it is natural to assume that aether waves also have a loss.

    Thank you for your work and for your kind attention,

    Anton Dahr
