Abstract

Einstein's iconic equation suggests that mass and energy are interchangeable, with mass being fully convertible into energy and vice versa. However, real-world physical reactions reveal that this conversion is never 100% efficient nor practically reversible. The Al-Asr Dynamic Number System (ADNS), developed by G. Mustafa Shahzad, presents an alternative and more grounded interpretation of mass-energy dynamics. ADNS frames transformations within a time-centric number system, challenging the idealism of Einstein’s theory and rooting mathematical processes in the reality of Earth-based systems. This paper deconstructs each component of Einstein's formula and contrasts it with empirical evidence, providing a reformulated understanding through ADNS logic.

1. Introduction: Beyond Idealism in Physics

Einstein’s Theory of Relativity is a mathematical marvel, extending the boundaries of classical mechanics to near-light-speed realms. Yet its interpretation, particularly of E = mc², has created the impression that matter and energy are infinitely interconvertible — an idealistic scenario that rarely matches observable events on Earth.

The Al-Asr Dynamic Number System offers a realistic, event-centered, and time-aware model of physical transformation. It refocuses mathematical reasoning from space-based idealism to event-based realism, aligning theory with what is physically and energetically achievable.

2. Einstein’s Formula: The Ideal Form

Einstein’s equation is:

E = mc²

Where:

· E is the energy (in joules)

· m is the mass (in kilograms)

· c is the speed of light ( m/s)

Theoretical Implication:

· Any amount of mass can be fully converted into an enormous quantity of energy.

· Theoretically, this process is reversible — energy can be fully converted back into mass.

3. ADNS View: Mass-Energy Conversion is Never 100%

According to ADNS:

· Mass is a past-bound value () — a memory of previous energy transformation.

· Energy is a future-bound value () — potential awaiting conversion.

· Al-Asr (0) is the moment of transformation between the two.

3.1 Real-World Example: Hiroshima

In the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, only 0.007 kg of uranium-235 underwent fission.

· Total U-235 in bomb: ~64 kg

· Mass converted into energy: ~0.007 kg

· Percentage converted: ~0.011%

Despite theoretical capacity, only a fraction of the mass actually transformed into energy.

Conclusion (ADNS): Real systems can never convert 100% of mass to energy due to physical constraints, inefficiencies, and event dependencies.

4. Irreversibility in Actual Reactions

Einstein’s theory allows for reversibility:

However, ADNS emphasizes that in practice, many energy-mass transformations are not reversible.

4.1 Example: Fission Products

When uranium-235 fissions:

Can we reverse this?

· No. There is no known method to combine Barium and Krypton back into Uranium-235.

· The process is thermodynamically irreversible.

ADNS Interpretation: No loop exists to circle back from to in practical settings.

5. Critique: Einstein’s Theory is Space-Based, Not Earth-Based

Einstein's relativity equations were derived for high-velocity, space-based systems:

· Frame of reference: inertial (spacecraft, light beams)

· Scale: relativistic (near light-speed)

· Assumption: frictionless, ideal vacuum

Real Earth Systems:

· Contain friction, heat loss, entropy

· Time is irreversible

· Reactions are event-based, not ideal condition-based

ADNS Anchors Theory in Reality:

· Time-centered model: Al-Asr (0) = real present moment

· Events follow irreversible logic: past (-) → present (0) → future (+)

6. Philosophical Rejection: Why ADNS Does Not Support Idealized Mass-Energy Equivalence

Position of G.M. Shahzad:

· Einstein’s works mathematically in isolated conditions.

· But real transformations are always partial, time-bound, and irreversible.

· No mass system on Earth, including stars, can execute perfect reversibility.

Core Argument:

Mass and energy are not freely interchangeable states but sequential events in the time-flow of Al-Asr.

7. ADNS Alternative Expression

In ADNS, energy-mass relation is framed as:

With key properties:

· Partial conversion only

· Not universally reversible

· Time-direction enforced

This aligns with observable facts in nuclear physics, chemistry, biology, and astronomy.

8. Conclusion

While Einstein’s theory sparked a revolution in physics, its idealistic view of mass-energy equivalence must be revisited. The Al-Asr Dynamic Number System (ADNS) provides a more realistic and time-sensitive framework for interpreting physical transformations. It acknowledges the partial, irreversible, and event-based nature of all real-world energy conversions. ADNS reclaims time as the centerpiece of mathematical and physical logic — not just space and speed.
