It has been demonstrated in a recent paper (Mod.Phys.Lett. A13, 1265 (1998); hep-th/9902020) that the existence of a non-thermodynamic arrow of time at the atomic level is a fundamental requirement for conservation of energy in matter-radiation interaction. Since the universe consists of two things only --- energy and massive matter --- we argue that as a consequence of this earlier result, particles and antiparticles must necessarily move in opposite directions in time. Our result further…

a Possible Anisotropy in Black Body Radiation Viewed Through Non-Uniform Gaseous Matter
A nonlocal gauge symmetry of a complex scalar field, which can be trivially extended to spinor fields, was demonstrated in a recent paper (Mod. Phys. Lett.A13, 1265 (1998), hep-th/9902020). The
