Report on a pre-earthquake signal detection by enhanced Eötvös torsion balance

More than 30 minutes before the earthquake event in Florina, Greece at 21:43:47(UTC) on 9th January 2022 an enhanced Eötvös torsion balance registered unidentified signals in the Jánossy Underground Research Laboratory in Budapest, Hungary. These signals were not visible on the seismograms, although seismic noises are continuously recorded by a side-by-side broadband seismometer. Moreover, seismological stations did not detect anything unusual, they presented a negative confirmation of the events. Our observation suggests that torsion balances might effectively detect precursory earthquake signals from a considerable distance. Such a finding could trigger the development of new observational devices and networks and can provide novel knowledge about the origin and mechanism of earthquake phenomena.

Mathematical Equivalency of the Ether Based Gavitation Theory of Janossy and General Relativity

"There are several interpretations and approaches to relativity. All of them are characterized by the fact that none of them is accepted by physicists without doubts, even the Einsteinian General Relativity! Only those theories can get into the spotlight that predicts something that is different from predictions of other concurrent theories. From this point of view the theory of Janossy [1] is not an excellent idea, as he tried to show that his materialistic approach also corresponds to the general principles and equations of relativity. As his program was basically successful there was not any additional result, except the philosophical part." Since the death of Janossy, his work has almost been forgotten. Both what he achieved and what he was not succeeded in. He was one of the founders of KFKI (Central Physics Research Institute of the Hungarian Scientific Academy) but his effort has not been carried over even there, however his collegues are still remember his name and his work. Luckily his books are still available in the Hungarian libraries. Additionally the most informed etherists in the world who are lucky enough to know his work are consider his work as a No1 reference. This paper is designated to refresh the idea of the ether based gravitation theory of Janossy and introduce a well founded way to adjust it to be equivalent with the experiences and General Relativity.

Linear Relativity as a Result of Unit Transformation

General Relativity is considered to be so far the best gravitation theory. However it is quite hard to use in real situations. The root of these difficulties lays in the non-linearity of the theory. Our aim was not to linearize the theory, but find the source of non-linearity and get rid of it. We found that the resolution can be obtained by defining standards and units properly. We also found that the mathematical method to change the units of General Relativity has been discussed in general almost 40 years ago by Dicke. Linear Relativity can be founded by choosing the right function for his transformation and reinterpret his results.
