A Theory of Physical Vacuum: A New Paradigm is a 1998 English-language book by the Russian physicist Gennady I Shipov (IITA/PRANS, Moscow). It was originally published in Russian (ST-Center, Moscow, 1993), with a second edition, Theory, Experiments and Technologies (Nauka, Moscow, 1996).

Overview

Shipov presents his Theory of Physical Vacuum, a geometrized "Universal Relativity" that seeks to describe gravitation, electromagnetism, and quantum phenomena within a single vacuum structure. Central to it are torsion fields — associated with the torsion of space-time (in the sense of Élie Cartan) — which Shipov elevates from a mathematical option to a physical field linked to inertia, the structure of the vacuum, and even propulsion. The theory is controversial: it lies largely outside the peer-reviewed literature, and critics have pointed to serious mathematical problems in its formulation.

About the author

Gennady Ivanovich Shipov (born 1938) is a Russian theoretical physicist, a graduate of Moscow State University, who developed the Theory of Physical Vacuum and, with Anatoly Akimov, was a leading figure in the Soviet/Russian "torsion field" research programme.
