What is this?
The author mostly self-quotes and his articles are published on either vixra.org ("arxiv" reversed, in case you missed it; Physicist Gerard 't Hooft writes, "When a paper is published in viXra, it is usually a sign that it is not likely to contain acceptable results. It may, but the odds against that are considerable" from [0]) or in the - as it appears - questionable Progress in Physics Journal [1]. He even cites news sites.
These are more red flags than one should reasonably need to think it's BS, imo.
