Heim theory

Heim theory is a proposed 'Theory of Everything', based on the work of the German physicist Burkhard Heim. The theory attempts to resolve incompatibilities between quantum theory and general relativity. The term "Heim theory" is also used for theories which are extensions or generalizations of the original theory proposed by Heim. Most notable are the theoretical generalizations put forth by Droescher, who worked in collaboration with Heim for some length. Their combined theories are also known as "Heim-Droescher" theories, although there are no international established standards for naming Heim-related theories at present. This ambiguity in the term "Heim Theory" has led to some confusion and difficulties over the correct interpretation of the theory. For example, in its original version Heim theory used 6 dimensions, which was sufficient to derive the masses of elementary particles. Droescher first extended this to 8, in order to demonstrate that the QED and QCD structures of the standard model could be found within this expanded version of the original Heim theory. Later, 4 more dimensions were used in the 12 dimensional version that involves extra gravitational forces one of which corresponds to quintessence. All these theories are often known as "Heim theories". The various dimensional extensions allow one to interpret that branches of established physics can be found in Heim theory. This includes Maxwell's equations.

Principles

There are some empirical predictions of Heim theory which can in principle be experimentally verified, but will likely be achieved only in the near future. These include

• Predictions for the masses of neutrinos, and
• Predictions for the conversion of photons into the so-called "gravito-photons" resulting in a measurable force

Heim also introduces in his theory a set of new vocabulary which describes his predicted forces and interactions with matter. As a majority of these terms were originally in German, translation of these into English has resulted in some ambiguity.
