Abstract

The new theory of Special Relativity based upon the Higgs field has the following attributes: 1) There are different reference frames for objects in motion. Some objects are at rest with the flow or expansion of space [galaxies]. Other objects have a high speed relative to the flow of space [galactic jets]. 2) The theory hypothesizes that the Higgs field determines the ?value of mass? and the ?rate of time? for particles [objects] 3) The value of the Higgs field can be different for objects in those different reference frames. Thus, the ?value of mass? and the ?rate of time? can also be different for objects in those different reference frames. 4) The differences in the ?rates of time? and ?values of mass? for the particles [objects] in their different reference frames is then used to explain the same proven facts or proven observations as demonstrated by Einstein?s Theory of Special Relativity.
