Dr. Detlef Hoyer has a PhD in theoretical electrical Engineering. He investigates Einstein-Maxwell equations derived from 5D Kaluza Relativity, where a scalar field occurs affecting both, gravity and electromagnetism. Recently he began to examine the 5D geodesic equation, which includes electomagnetic forces. Because geodesic equations are about acceleration and not about force, the term charge q over mass m is relevant here.

Predictions of the theory are reduction of effective mass and a fifth force. Until it is not known, how to achieve those effects or even if they exist at all, his calculations aim for hints, how to arrange experiments for verification or falsification.

Dr. Detlef Hoyer earned a college diploma in magnetism and low temperature physics in 1986. He completed his Ph.D. at the Hamburg University of Technology in 1992. Since then he worked as a software developer at a major German insurance company. In 2004 he started his research on Riemannian curvature of higher dimensional manifolds.

Henk A.P. Blom is Full Professor with Delft University of Technology, holding the Chair in
Air Traffic Management (ATM) Safety, and has been Principal Scientist with National
Aerospace Laboratory NLR, The Netherlands. He is an IEEE Fellow.
His research has focused on exploiting the theory of stochastic modeling and analysis in
two ATM research domains: 1) Bayesian data fusion; and 2) Safety risk assessment. In
the data fusion domain, his novel methods have been implemented in Eurocontrol’s
multi-sensor target tracking system ARTAS. He also received (jointly with Dr. Yaakov
Bar-Shalom) the 2022 Pioneer Award from the IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems
Society for the development of the Interacting Multiple Model (IMM) approach to multi-
model estimation and maneuvering target tracking.
In the safety domain, he has been leader in the development and application of Agent-
based Dynamic Risk Modelling and Simulation (ABDRMS) methodology, to identify
unknown emergent behaviour of a novel socio-technical ATM design, and to realize
effective feedback to the design. In support of this ABDRMS development, he has
conducted hazard brainstorms with pilots and controllers, and has systematically
organized collaboration with researchers from safety-relevant disciplines, ranging from
human cognitive behavior to rare event simulation of stochastic hybrid systems.

The author has been a nuclear power station C&I nuclear safety expert and an IFR pilot, he also designed and produced specialised instruments for the electricity industry, but now he works independently and pro-bono in theoretical quantum physics. The author has worked on alarm information design logic and the elimination of needless alarm message flooding that is the very devil in all complex surveillance of automated systems. He is the best person that any aviation control business firm or department, who would like an industry-external independent cybernetic strategy audit of their avionics systems work or offerings, could ever appoint to help them find generic opportunities for vast improvements to the safety performance of what they can achieve.
