In https://www.frame-budget-approach.eu/PDF/DE/FBA_09_Kosmische_Dynamik_Time_Dilation_Inflation_TDI.pdf (PDF/preprint, 2026), “accelerated expansion” is formulated as time-dilation inflation via the factor χ(t) and operationalized as overdetermined through distance data, chronometers, redshift drift, and SN time dilation in null tests N1–N3. In the same part, “before time” is not treated as t<0 physics, but as an operational question about the start of the…

In https://opg.optica.org/optica/fulltext.cfm?id=572911&uri=optica-12-6-843 (Optica, 2025), the largest coordinated campaign to date is reported: 10 optical clocks in 6 countries were compared simultaneously over fiber and satellite links for weeks (including 38 evaluated frequency ratios). The FBA view turns this into a pass/fail program: not “the best clock,” but a preregistered consistency experiment that licenses link and…

The Spektrum podcast picks up a real primary line: in https://arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/0103239 the hot Big Bang is described as the result of a brane collision in an extra-dimensional setting; the model starts from a cold, nearly static state and claims to address the horizon, flatness, and monopole problems without a standard inflationary phase. At the same…

Superconductivity as a Null-Test Regime: Is There an Entropy Residual Beyond the Heat Balance?

In the microscopic theory of superconductivity by Bardeen, Cooper & Schrieffer (1957), an energy gap leads to strongly suppressed dissipative quasiparticle contributions at low temperatures, enabling a very low-loss reference mode of operation. Josephson (1962) predicts, for tunnel junctions, a lossless DC supercurrent up to a critical limit as well as a dissipative voltage state…
