A Simple Estimate for the Mass of the Universe:
Dimensionless Parameter A and the Construct of "Pressure"
Michael A. Persinger
Abstract
Employing a simple model for "pressure", a solution of 1052
kg for the mass of the Universe was obtained which was
identical in orders of magnitude to both empirical estimates
and different theoretical solutions derived from more
complicated equations. The transforming coefficient was
within the error margins of the dimensionless parameter A
employed to constrain dark energy models. Application of
this mass to Schwarzchild's equation for singularity
indicated that about 19% of the universe, now presumed to be
dark matter, would meet this criterion. Dimensional analysis
requires the mass of the universe to increase as its
four-dimensional representation expands.

A Study of the Two-body Problem with Magnetic Interactions
Alberto Sadun and Masoud Asadi-Zeydabadi
Abstract
A first order correction is applied to Kepler’s third law
that takes into account the magnetic interaction between two
orbiting bodies. This correction is derived by introducing a
magnetic moment term in the potential energy of the system.
Deviations of the period, distances, and velocities, from
those implied by the classic Kepler’s law (based on
gravitation only) are derived which may be measurable in
astronomical systems such as close binary systems of
magnetic stars, and possibly even in extrasolar planetary
systems.
