3. My Most Important Works:
3.1. The Second Kind of Light:
My theory ( Ref. 6 ), is a generalization of quantum electrodynamics (QED). QED was introduced in 1948 by the Nobel laureates Richard Feynman, Julian Schwinger, and Sin-Itiro Tomonaga. My theory is a generalization of QED. It includes both electric and magnetic charges (Dirac monopoles), Einstein's electric photon and Salam's magnetic photon. The essential new concept of my theory is the introduction of velocity coupling. This is a new kind of tensor coupling between fermions and bosons.
The possible discovery of the second kind of light (magnetic photon rays) has been published in the book ``Has the last word been said on classical electrodynamics?''. This book is edited by Drs. Andrew Chubykalo, Vladimir Onoochin, Roman Smirnov-Rueda, and Augusto Espinoza. It has been published by the scientific publishing house Rinton Press. Information on this book is available online via
http://www.rintonpress.com/books/chuby.html.
3.2. The Rotating Universe:
The rotation axes of the galaxies of the Perseus-Pisces supercluster are aligned. This alignment exists over a distance of at least 40 Mpc (130 million light years). Such a large alignment cannot be explained within the framework of conventional models of galaxy-formation. Therefore I suggested in Ref. 5 that this alignment is either a topological defect (torsion wall) or a remnant of the original aligned distribution of galactic rotation axes generated by a rotating universe. My interpretation of this structure as a torsion wall or as an effect of a rotating universe has attracted the interest of many physicists.

3.3. Atlantis in Andalusia:
I argued that part of Plato's Atlantis report is not only philosophical fiction, but includes historical elements.
(1) Plato's description of the Athenian acropolis resembles the Mycenaean acropolis of the end of the 13th century BC.
(2) The war between Atlantis and the Eastern Mediterranean countries resembles that of the Sea Peoples around 1200 BC.
(3) The geography and culture of the city of Atlantis resembles the Iron Age city of Tartessos around 1100 - 550 BC.
