T. B. Bon is a United States-based independent researcher, applied physicist, and engineer known for the Theory of Field Interaction, a proposed alternative framework in physics. Trained in physics, Bon spent most of a career working in applied physics and engineering while pursuing an independent, decades-long reexamination of the foundations of relativity, quantum mechanics, and cosmology. Bon publishes under initials only and has not disclosed further biographical identity.

Biography

Bon graduated in physics and worked in applied physics and engineering for most of a professional career. According to Bon's own account, this work spanned a broad range of technical areas made accessible by a physics background. Over the same period, Bon became convinced that a number of widely accepted ideas in physics, including relativity, quantum mechanics, and big bang cosmology, were mistaken, and undertook an independent effort to develop an alternative understanding of the physical world, a project Bon describes as spanning several decades.

Bon presented work through the Natural Philosophy Alliance (NPA), including a paper delivered at the organization's proceedings in College Park, Maryland, in 2011. Bon's writings and book were self-published and made available for free download through the personal website tbbon.net.

Work

Bon developed a methodology termed phenomenoscience, defined by Bon as the careful and focused evaluation and understanding of actual physical phenomena in reality. Bon argues that mathematics, while a useful tool for verification and quantification, is not the proper foundation for theoretical development, and that a correct phenomenological understanding of how and why physical processes occur must precede and inform any associated mathematics. This position was set out in the 2010 abstract "Phenomenoscience — The Key to the Proper Development of New Concepts in Science."

Bon's principal work, the Theory of Field Interaction, is presented in a book of roughly 400 pages, described by Bon as a work in progress. The theory proposes a reinterpretation of basic concepts of classical physics, in particular momentum and inertia, which Bon contends carry more physical significance than has generally been assumed. Bon argues that revisiting these fundamentals leads to different conclusions in several areas of physics, including aspects of mainstream relativity, quantum, and cosmological theory. The framework was summarized in the 2011 NPA paper "The Theory of Field Interaction: An Introduction."
