Journal "Physics Letters A" does not have referees of principle. None
is willing to review my paper "Defects of the general field theory"
because I show that the canonical energy-momentum and spin tensors are
wrong, and physicists fail to correct this tensors by the
Belinfante-Rosenfeld procedure. This foolish procedure eliminates spin
and does not give the true (Maxwell) energy-momentum tensor. And I show
how to obtain a true spin tensor.
Allan P Fordy, Editor of Physics Letters A, wrote me on July 12, 2006:
"Dear Dr Khrapko, I have tried many referees, but none is willing to
read your paper. I think it would be better for you to try a
"Foundations" journal, rather than PLA (or the "Foundations editor" of
PLA, who is P.R. Holland).
I must, therefore, REJECT. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to
consider your work."
Unfortunately, I cannot hope for Dr. Holland's understanding. I sent a
message to AuthorSupport@xxxxxxxxxxxx on May 1, 2006:
"Subject: Submission to PLA
Dear Global Author Support Department,
Prof. P.R. Holland, Editor of Physics Letters A, is a puzzle for me.
I submitted a paper "The Beth experiment is under review" to PLA on
November 17, 2005. In this paper I show that the electrodynamics cannot
explain the result of the Beth experiment, and I solve the problem. But
Prof. Holland simply wrote me, "Your paper is not suitable for
publication in Physics Letters A" on November 18, 2005.
I submitted a paper "Professor Soper's mistake" on November 13, 2005.
In this paper I show the Professor Soper's mistake confirms that the
Belinfante-Rosenfeld procedure is not fit for obtaining true
energy-momentum and spin tensors of electrodynamics, and I solve the
problem. Unfortunately, Prof. Holland simply wrote me, "I have read
your paper with interest but regret that it is not suitable for
publication in Physics Letters A"
I submitted a paper "Exercises in the CANONICAL spin tensor" on October
6, 2005. But Prof. Holland rejected it without reading on October 11,
2005. His senseless reply was: "This paper is devoted to a examination
of the virtues of a spin tensor introduced by the author".
Now I intend to submit a paper "Defects of the general field theory" to
PLA. I would be grateful if this paper enters the peer-review process.
Can I hope?
Sincerely, Radi Khrapko, Professor of Physics, Moscow Aviation
Institute
P. S. These papers are published at www.sciprint.org and
www.mai.ru/projects/mai_works."
But I have no answer till now.
Radi Khrapko
