Jayant has had a long research career in astrophysics and cosmology, which he began at Cambridge in 1960, as a student of Sir Fred Hoyle. He started his work with a big bang, expounding on the steady state theory of the Universe and creating a new theory of gravity inspired by Mach‘s principle. He also worked on action-at-a-distance electrodynamics, inspired by the explorations of Wheeler, Feynman and Hogarth in that direction. This body of work established Jayant‘s rep utation as a bold and imaginative physicist who was ever willing to take a fresh look at fundamental issues, undeterred by conventional wis dom. This trait, undoubtedly inherited from his teacher and mentor, has always remained with Jayant. It is now most evident in his untir ing efforts to understand anomalies in quasar astronomy, and to develop the quasi-steady state cosmology, along with a group of highly distin guished astronomers including Halton Arp, Geoffrey Burbidge and Fred Hoyle | | 出版日期 | Book 2000 | | 关键词 | Cosmology; EFE; Gravity; Quantum mechanics; Redshift; Relativity; SR; Theoretical physics; Topological defec | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-011-4050-8 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-010-5784-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-011-4050-8Series ISSN 0067-0057 Series E-ISSN 2214-7985 | | issn_series | 0067-0057 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2000 |
