Santilli writes that there are compelling reasons to doubt the strict validity of Einsteinian relativity under the conditions found in the interior of subatomic particles, such as protons and neutrons. Over a period of several years, he and others working independently from him have attempted to conduct theoretical and experimental research to determine, whether or not Einstein's special and general relativity is actually violated under these conditions. This research has been met with such concerted and extraordinary resistance that santilli felt he was left with no choice but to write II Grande Grido; "the great-ornery...

Santilli cities many instances of what he feels was unethical behavior by leading institutions-all of it directed against research which raised questions about the strict validity of Einsteinian relativity. One example was the year and one half delay in publication of a research paper submitted to the journal of the American Physical Society-which normally publishes papers in a matter of weeks-while information on the paper was leaked to competing researchers so a rebuttal could be published soon after its release. Also mentioned were the categorical rejection of 13 grant proposals to the National Science Foundation submitted under...

...more ideal recipient of the 1981 Nobel Prize for Literature than Elias Canetti, 76, would have to be invented. When the Bulgarian-born novelist, play wright and essayist, with his Einsteinian white mane and mustache, arrives in Stockholm on Dec. 10 to claim the $180,000 award, he will precisely fit the Swedish Academy's taste in laureates. Canetti's sensibilities, like those of last year's winner, Polish Poet Czeslaw Milosz, are survivors of Europe's prewar culture. A poly lingual resident of England, who writes exclusively in a high, lapidary German, he is fashionably...

Last week, in an announcement that excited physicists round the world, University of Massachusetts Astronomer Joseph H. Taylor added new weight to the Einsteinian case. At a gathering of astrophysicists in Munich, Taylor reported indirect experimental evidence affirming a major tenet of general relativity: the existence of gravitational waves. Predicted by Einstein, but never positively detected, this elusive radiation is the carrier of gravity, just as light waves are the carriers of electromagnetism, another of the universe's basic forces...

...sensitive computerized clocking device capable of detecting orbital timing changes of only one fifty-millionth of a second. This superaccurate timer revealed that in those four years the orbital period of the objects had decreased a total of four ten-thousandths of a second. That was exactly on the Einsteinian mark. Said Taylor: "We don't claim to have detected gravitational waves themselves, but simply proved they exist...
