A Reinterpretation of Quantum Physics
Erwin Heisenberg’s groundbreaking work, published in 1925 in the journal “Zeitschrift für Physik” under the title “On the quantum-theoretical reinterpretation of kinematical and mechanical relationships,” marked a pivotal shift in Physics. This publication, often referred to as “Die Umdeuting,” laid the groundwork for modern quantum physics. Causality, a central concept shared by Philosophy, Theology, and Physics, has historically linked Newtonian Physics with philosophical and religious perspectives. However, Heisenberg’s introduction of the Uncertainty Principle in 1920 challenged this unifying concept of Causality, disrupting the traditional connections between these fields. Modern Physics is built upon four foundational pillars: Newton’s Classical Mechanics, Maxwell’s Electrodynamics, Bohr’s Quantum Physics, and Einstein’s General Relativity. Any inadequacy or error in these foundational principles could potentially revolutionize our understanding of modern physics. The new physics model presented suggests an incompleteness within one of these fundamental foundations: Maxwell’s Electrodynamics and its treatment of light’s inertia. By addressing this limitation and introducing the idea of light’s inertia in equations, a significant fundamental shift in Physics is proposed. This shift aims to reconcile Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle with Newton’s Causality Principle, thereby bridging the gap between Philosophy, Theology, and Physics through a shared concept of Causality.
