Publications Top Note 

1. Conformal Theory of Gravitation and Cosmic Expansion

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: 2023 (arXiv), published in Symmetry in 2024

  • Citations: Currently very low (preprint shows ~1 citation)

  • Source: arXiv preprint (arXiv:2308.10399), final version published in MDPI journal Symmetry

  • Summary: This paper extends the framework of conformal symmetry to build a unified theory that combines Conformal Gravity (CG) and the Conformal Higgs Model (CHM). The author shows that this model explains galactic rotation curves and cosmic acceleration without requiring dark matter or dark energy. It further constrains the Higgs sector, proposing that the 125 GeV resonance observed experimentally might be due to gauge field interactions, not a Standard Model Higgs boson. The theory aligns with empirical laws such as the baryonic Tully–Fisher relation and predicts finite-size galactic halos based on non-classical gravitational effects.

2. Conformal Theory of Gravitation and Cosmology

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: 2020

  • Citations: Approximately 7 citations

  • Source: Published in Europhysics Letters (EPL)

  • Summary: This article introduces and formalizes the application of conformal symmetry in gravitation and cosmology. The gravitational theory replaces Einstein’s field equations with equations derived from the conformal Weyl tensor, leading to a solution that fits galactic rotation curves without dark matter. Simultaneously, the Conformal Higgs Model modifies the cosmological Friedmann equation to fit supernova-based Hubble expansion data, offering a single-parameter explanation for cosmic acceleration. The paper also addresses the radial acceleration relation observed in galaxies and predicts a definite boundary to galactic halos beyond which centripetal acceleration drops to zero.

3. Conformal Gravity: Newton’s Constant Is Not Universal

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: 2022

  • Source: EPL (Europhysics Letters)

  • Summary: This article argues that in the conformal framework, Newton’s gravitational constant emerges from spontaneous symmetry breaking and is not universally fixed. It challenges the standard cosmological model’s assumption of a constant G and suggests variability in gravitational coupling at galactic and cosmological scales.

4. Weyl Conformal Symmetry Model of the Dark Galactic Halo

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: 2022

  • Citations: 1

  • Source: Galaxies (MDPI)

  • Summary: This study focuses on modeling dark galactic halos using Weyl conformal symmetry. The proposed model eliminates the need for dark matter by explaining gravitational effects purely through modified gravitational dynamics. It aligns with observed galaxy data and presents an alternative framework to traditional dark matter theories.

5. Implications of the Conformal Higgs Model

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: 2022

  • Source: Particles (MDPI)

  • Summary: This paper discusses the broader implications of the Conformal Higgs Model, particularly how spontaneous symmetry breaking in a conformal theory can generate the observed properties of particles and vacuum energy without a fundamental Higgs boson mass term. It aims to connect cosmological observations with particle physics.

6. Conformal Higgs Model: Gauge Fields Can Produce a 125 GeV Resonance

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: 2021

  • Citations: 3

  • Source: Modern Physics Letters A

  • Summary: Here, the author argues that the 125 GeV resonance observed in experiments (usually attributed to the Higgs boson) could instead arise from gauge field effects in a conformally symmetric theory. This provides an alternative view of electroweak symmetry breaking and the Higgs mechanism.

7. Dark Energy Density Predicted and Explained

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: 2019

  • Citations: 6

  • Source: EPL (Europhysics Letters)

  • Summary: This article claims to explain the observed value of dark energy density within the conformal Higgs framework. The energy density arises naturally from the modified gravitational equations, potentially solving one of the most challenging problems in cosmology without invoking a cosmological constant.

8. Theoretical Implications of the Galactic Radial Acceleration Relation of McGaugh, Lelli, and Schombert

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: 2018

  • Citations: 8

  • Source: Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters

  • Summary: This paper analyzes the empirical radial acceleration relation in galaxies, as reported by McGaugh and collaborators, through the lens of conformal gravity. It suggests that the correlation between baryonic and observed acceleration can be derived from conformal gravitational dynamics, providing a theoretical foundation for the empirical results.

9. Dark Galactic Halos without Dark Matter

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: 2015

  • Citations: 10

  • Source: EPL (Europhysics Letters)

  • Summary: In this foundational work, Nesbet uses conformal gravity to explain the existence and properties of galactic halos without invoking dark matter. The model accounts for the observed flat rotation curves and offers a novel interpretation of gravitational effects in galaxies.

10. Conformal Gravity: Dark Matter and Dark Energy

  • Author: R. K. Nesbet

  • Year: Not clearly specified, but before 2022

  • Citations: 23

  • Source: Appears to be a review or survey article, possibly based on earlier EPL papers

  • Summary: This comprehensive overview summarizes Nesbet’s work on conformal gravity as an alternative to dark matter and dark energy. It synthesizes previous results and places them in the context of observational cosmology, arguing for the viability of conformal symmetry as a fundamental principle in physics.
