ABSTRACT

Chin and Stothers 1975

Chin, C.-W., and R. Stothers, 1975: Solar test of Dirac's large number hypothesis. Nature, 254, 206-207, doi:10.1038/254206a0.

An investigation is conducted regarding the implications of Dirac's theories (1973, 1974) concerning the creation of new matter. It is found that Dirac's theory of multiplicative creation, but not his theory of additive creation, is not in contradiction with known facts about the sun. According to the theory of additive creation, matter is formed uniformly throughout space. The concept of multiplicative creation implies that existing matter multiplies itself in proportion to the amount of matter already present.
