The aim of the present book is very simply stated; it is to discuss
-- and to some extent to explore -- the Weyl-Dirac theory in
connection with classical electromagnetism and cosmology. The study
of our universe in recent years has become one of the most
interesting and important subjects. Current cosmology considers a
large number of various subjects from elementary particles to the
large scale-structure of the universe. In order to explain this
variety of phenomena, which occur between the Planck time and tens
of billions of years, one makes use of methods stemming from
different physical theories: elementary particle physics, quantum
mechanics, thermodynamics, statistical physics, celestial
mechanics, etc. It is, however, generally accepted to express those
approaches in terms of the general theory of relativity, which is
based on Riemann's geometry. In this book, it is shown that some
unexplained cosmological and electrodynamic phenomena may be
treated and understood in the geometrically based framework of Weyl
and Dirac.
The book is intended for physicists, astrophysicists,
cosmologists and mathematicians who are familiar with the
foundations of Einstein's general theory of relativity.
