A Physics Model

Built From First Principles

That Includes Gravity



The model starts with a mechanism for gravity, and then builds the model around that mechanism


The reason for starting with gravity, is that there may be only a few mechanisms that can produce gravity*

If that is the case, then the model's mechanism for gravity, could be the correct mechanism - link to the model's discussion on gravity


The mathematics of the model is a physics engine for a strand shaped particle

The behaviour of the strand shaped particle leads to gravity, mass, electric charge, electric fields, subatomic particles - and the atom, without the need for quantum fields


The model

The model's elementary particle is a strand shaped particle that moves continuously at a single constant speed, through three dimensional space

The strand shaped particle is used to build the model's four base particles - the neutrino, positron, electron, 'neutral' particle

The following animation shows a simple sequence of the elementary strand shaped particle, tagged one behind the other, building the model's four base particles - the neutrino, electron, positron, 'neutral' particle; the  Next Build  button steps through the process, the  Run  button start / stops the animation (any of the buttons can be used in pause mode)

Building The Four Base Particles

In the model, the neutrino is a helix shaped particle, the positron is a left-handed torus shaped particle, and the electron is a right-handed torus shaped particle

The 'neutral' particle is a double torus particle, where a left-handed torus is inside a right-handed torus, or vice versa


Instead of constructing the proton as two up quarks and one down quark, the proton is contructed as a positron sandwiched between two of the 'neutral' particles

And the neutron is constructed as a proton with an electron embedded into the side of the proton

The following animation shows the shapes and structures of the model's subatomic particles, the  Next Particles  button steps through the particles, the  Run  button start / stops the animation (any of the buttons can be used in pause mode)
