The Collapse Of Newton and Einstein’s Small Acceleration Theories

A recent study found evidence of a violation of standard gravity at low levels of acceleration, which could drastically change our understanding of the universe.

Astrophysicist Kyu-Hyun Chae of Sejong University in Seoul has analyzed 26,500 “wide” binary star systems within 650 light-years of Earth. These are star systems in which two stars revolve around a common center of mass at a fairly large distance from one another – from several hundred to several thousand astronomical units. At the same time, the professor took into account the possibility of “embedding” – the existence of a hidden close binary system of stars in orbit with a third far distant star (the calculation data were calibrated taking into account such a scenario).

All data for calculations were obtained from one of the surveys of the European astrometric satellite Gaia. “Gaia” determines the exact distances to the stars in our galaxy and their speed, as well as the motion vector, allowing you to create a dynamic three-dimensional map of the near Universe. No one doubts the Gaia data, and the calculations made by the Korean scientist are so reliable that it literally knocks out the support under the feet of many generations of scientists. It turns out that they mistakenly considered the theories of gravity of Newton and Einstein to be the ultimate truth, and this, as it turned out, is definitely not the case.

Calculations made by a South Korean researcher show that at an acceleration of less than 1 nm/s2, the acceleration with which pairs of binary stars actually rotate around a common center of mass ceases to satisfy the calculations made on the basis of the Newton/Einstein equations. These conclusions were obtained for 20 thousand binary star systems.  The possibility of errors is excluded, and the reliability of the data falls within a deviation of 5 sigma – this is the result that is necessary to claim a scientific discovery.
