I have decided to participate in the experiment
VERSUS
, organized by the Belgian Sam Buisseret.
VERSUS number 3
I should, in principle, receive by the end of June a response from the organizing committee of the international conference COSMO17, to be held in Paris between August 28 and September 1.
Since early June, I have contacted Roland Triay, co-organizer of the annual meeting (Center for Theoretical Physics in Marseille), which takes place each autumn in Cargèse, Corsica, asking whether I could present my Janus model there.
No response
.....
Ask him why he isn't replying to me, not even negatively:
Alain Riazuelo, researcher at the Institute of Astrophysics in Paris, has since 2006 (for 11 years) hosted on his laboratory's website what he believes to be a refutation of my cosmological theories. He clearly hasn't read my work, and this page is a collection of false and erroneous claims. Today, he goes further: to internet users, he openly states that if I managed to publish articles in high-level journals, it was only because the referees were fooled—meaning, in other words, that I am a fraud. I asked him whether he still holds this position, and under these conditions, in accordance with professional ethics, whether he would send "comments" to those journals, pointing out the aspects that escaped the experts.
No response....
Ask him the question.

The god Janus, looking both toward the future and the past
The best interview, by Stéphane Allix J
I have decided to participate in the experiment
VERSUS
, organized by the Belgian Sam Buisseret.
The first five thousand copies have been sold.
The book has been released. The first five thousand copies sold out in 48 hours. The publisher, Trédaniel, is reprinting.
A website allows you to view the first 28 pages.
This page will serve as a kind of blog.
Censorship is everywhere—in the scientific world, in science popularization media, and in general press. Of course, the presidential election currently occupies the entire audiovisual landscape. But I am confirmed in my perception of things. If an interest movement emerges, it can only happen within the public sphere, among various social groups. In my Janus videos, I strive to be understood by as many people as possible, which prevents me from using any formalism. Only after completing this series will I create "extra videos" aimed at internet users with a "math-sup" level, representing tens or even hundreds of thousands of individuals (students and engineers).
I will also create "translatable" videos using short sentences of the type "subject-verb-object." The dubbing will be handled by the team of Savoir sans Frontières.
Regarding major media, my co-author Jean-Claude Bourret will be a guest on Ardisson's show "Salut des Terriens," on May 4, 2017. My participation was not planned.
It is perfectly clear that no scientist will respond to my work.
Within the scientific community:
-
There are those who have invested in cosmology and astrophysics. If I am right, then all their work must be discarded. Two examples among academicians: Thibaud Damour and Françoise Combes.
-
Others, although not working in these fields, are fully capable of reading and understanding my writings, such as mathematician Alain Connes, who is also a geometer, but who "remains courageously silent." Connes could easily invite me to present my work at the seminar of the École Normale Supérieure or the Institute for Advanced Studies, where he holds a professorship. But in these institutions, he has as a neighbor the head of the cosmology seminar: Thibaud Damour. Between scientific honesty and the desire not to offend this neighbor, he has made his choice—and has not replied to my messages for a long time.
Thus, on this front, things are not going well.
Internet users have attempted to initiate a debate about my work on various science forums, the most well-known being Futura-Science. They were immediately expelled, with the message:
- Jean-Pierre Petit's theories are considered personal theories. For a theory to be discussed on Futura, it must be genuinely accepted (even just as a working hypothesis) at an academic level, meaning that the researcher's work must be recognized by peers. This is no longer the case for Jean-Pierre Petit, who has been excluded from the scientific community for over a decade. He now uses the internet to disseminate his theories. We do not wish to participate in what we consider an illegitimate and futile attempt to join the scientific debate. His theories will only gain credibility when they receive favorable judgment from the cosmological community."

The link points to a page hosted on the Institute of Astrophysics of Paris website back in... 2008. For eleven years, Riazuelo has consistently denied me my legitimate right to respond in a seminar at this laboratory (so no member, not even Luc Blanchet, see the article published in April 2017 in the journal La Recherche, has answered my messages).
Riazuelo even goes so far as to question, without providing any arguments, the quality of the articles I published in 2014 and 2015 in two high-level peer-reviewed journals. Here are the references.
J.P. Petit, G. D’Agostini: Negative Mass hypothesis in cosmology and the nature of dark energy. Astrophysics And Space Science, A 29, 145-182 (2014)
J.P. Petit, G. D’Agostini: Cosmological Bimetric model with interacting positive and negative masses and two different speeds of light, in agreement with the observed acceleration of the Universe. Modern Physics Letters A, Vol. 29; N° 34, 2014; November 10th
J.P. Petit & G. D’Agostini: Cancellation of the singularity of the Schwarzschild solution with natural mass inversion process. Mod. Phys. Lett. A vol. 30 n°9 2015
Here is the message Alain Riazuelo sent me:
- What I was trying to tell you was that, being retired and a bit rusty, you are not in the most favorable environment for research, due to the lack of regular interlocutors, the great difficulty in accessing scientific literature, and therefore the great difficulty in keeping up with the current state of the art on topics that interest you.
I do not deny that you have written articles in which you have poured in your own ideas.
However, I cannot say that the content of these articles has convinced me.
The fact that you found referees who accepted your articles does not change my reservations, and there is no reason for me to invite you to give a seminar.
And all this without any scientific arguments...
Perhaps, on this point, you'll have better luck than I did. Here is his email address:
If you approach scientists or science journalists, you can attach the PDFs of these three articles to your messages, which you can download by clicking on these links.
You can also simply mention these three simpler links, which point to the same files.
http://www.jp-petit.org/janus1.pdf
http://www.jp-petit.org/janus2.pdf
http://www.jp-petit.org/janus3.pdf
Which trigger the download of these three files, named respectively:
janus1.pdf janus2.pdf janus3.pdf
Nothing prevents you from going to science forums (or self-proclaimed ones) and simply asking:
- I would like the opinion of specialists regarding the Janus cosmological model (without mentioning my name). The three reference articles, published in high-level journals, are accessible at the following addresses:
http://www.jp-petit.org/janus1.pdf
http://www.jp-petit.org/janus2.pdf
http://www.jp-petit.org/janus3.pdf
Such a message can also appear in the comment sections following videos of our "cosmology stars," such as Luminet, Aurélien Barrau, Françoise Combes, Thibaud Damour, and others. You can also pose this question to Alain Connes, Carlo Rovelli, etc.
On the Futura Science forum, mentioning these references invalidates the moderator's statement placing me "outside the scientific community."
I continue working tirelessly to create and publish a long series of videos culminating in the presentation of my Janus cosmological model. Today is April 18, and I am finishing the fourteenth episode, on the geometric context of my Janus model. Here are the first thirteen.

The video series will include about fifteen episodes. It's a lot of work. It is also a response to the... deafening silence that greeted my attempts to contact about fifteen prominent figures in astrophysics and cosmology.

The news is currently entirely devoted to the presidential election, whose lamentable spectacle makes us appear ridiculous in the eyes of foreign observers. In principle, Bourret and I are scheduled to appear on Ardisson's show "Salut les Terriens" on May 4.
Everything I reveal, expose, and present in this series of videos should provoke reactions—both negative and positive. And it's not over yet. One can reasonably assume, hope, that it will provoke reactions. I want Ardisson to have access to the Janus videos. I have three weeks. What disturbs me most is the silence of someone like Alain Connes, Fields Medalist mathematician. There are important geometric questions to address. But he cohabits with Thibaud Damour at the Institute for Advanced Studies as a titular professor. This explains everything.
Let's continue.....
