About the Journal of Modern Cosmology |
|
The Journal of Modern Cosmology is a privately-owned, Open Access, Peer Reviewed, non-LCDM/CDM cosmology and astrophysical journal. The journal will consider papers on new research and hyptheses that are scientifically grounded. The journal does not consider or accept papers on any aspect of the Big Bang, Lamda/Dark Energy Cold Dark Matter (LCDM) or Cold Dark Matter (CDM) models of Cosmology or the Standard Model of Particle Physics. The position of the Journal of Modern Cosmology is that these models are all incorrect as they try to describe the interactions of individual particle events in what is actually an evolving continuum. It is also the Journal's position that the Universe is eternal, so papers containing physical "creation events" will also not be considered. Owner/Editor-in-Chief: Capt. Joseph H. (Cass) Forrington (Note: Although Capt. Forrington owns the journal, he will not be posting any of his papers in it unless they are also peer reviewed, as was the one paper he currently has in the journal. The Captain uses his True Cosomology site for his non-reviewed papers and opinion pieces.) Capt. Forrington is a Cum Laude graduate of the United States Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, New York, 1972. He has had a lifelong interest in Quantum Physics, Relativity and Cosmology and is self educated in those fields in the way of university open courseware, books, papers and other research and study, and is a peer reviewed and published cosmologist. He was the Webmaster, PIO and per se Managing Editor, receiving and screening submissions, for the Journal of Cosmology, from August 2020, after his paper was accepted, until July of 2020. The first three papers in the Journal of Modern Cosmology were originally published in the Journal of Cosmology. Two of the papers were removed from the Journal of Cosmology by the 84 year-old Executive Editor, who was, sadly, having "end of life" issues, to be polite, brought to a head, it seems, by the COVID lockdown. The Editor-in-Chief then suspended publishing new papers until their issues could be resolved. As the Executive Editor owned the webhosting account, the Editor-in-Chief's options were limited and, also at that time, the Executive Editor replaced Captain Forrington with someone else when Captain Forrington refused to cooperate further with the Executive Editor. This journal was begun out of consideration for the people who had their papers removed. The JofC offered to republish them, but neither author wanted their paper in the JofC due to the situation with the Executive Editor. The Editor-in-Chief was told they could have them back once their issues were resolved and they resumed publishing. The authors were not charged any fees for publishing their papers in the Journal of Modern Cosmology. The crisis culminated when the Executive Editor failed to renew the journalofcosmology.com domain name by 31 July 2021 and the Journal of Cosmology disappeared from the Internet. Fortunately, Captain Forrington backed up the journal in April of 2020, when he realized there were problems developing, and it was fully restored on November 1, 2021, with Captain Forrington resuming his duties as Managing Editor, PIO and webmaster, under the domain name thejournalofcosmology.com. At that time, the Williams and Ujvarosy papers were restored in the Journal of Cosmology, in Volumes #24 and 20, respectively, and the links in the Journal of Modern Cosmology now point to those locations. Captain Forrington was also made Special Guest Editor for Time Dilation Cosmology for Vol. #27 of the Journal of Cosmology on 7 August 2022. Captain Forrington's original paper formed the basis of Volume #27 in the Journal of Cosmology in October of 2019. After the Editor-in-Chief requested permission to publish this updated version there, even though it had previously been published here in the Journal of Modern Cosmology, and a long, nearly nine month review process complicated by COVID, the latest version found in this journal was accepted by the Journal of Cosmolgy and replaced the original version on 25 July 2022. The owner also strongly believes we need a journal for non BB/LCDM/Standard Model theories. He is also the founder and curator of Fort Bragg, California's, International Sea Glass Museum, and is an avid proponent of the recycling of glass in the formation of glass reefs worldwide on our badly depleted continental shelves, as the minerals used to make, color and clarify the glass form the basis of a food chain. Fort Bragg's world famous Glass Beaches have created the richest marine environment in at least Northern California, and he is hoping to see the same effect worldwide. |
