A New View of the Universe

Abstract

A new, very different physical model of the universe is proposed. Its virtues include unifying relativity and quantum mechanics, and particles with de Broglie waves. It also appears to provide a truly unified physical basis for electromagnetic, gravitational and nuclear forces. The basic system is a four-dimensional Euclidean space, containing an array of nonlinear "flow" waves. These repeat in one dimension, called [phi]. As in Newtonian mechanics, time is treated as an additional, unidirectional parameter describing the evolution of the system. Nevertheless, this wave system is shown be inherently relativistic. Further self-organizing patterns arise within the overall wave structure. Called "wavicles," these have intrinsic quantized fields, "spin," and rest energy, and represent elementary particles. Relativistic expressions are derived for particle behavior in scalar, vector and gravitational potentials. Proper representations of these potentials, based on the wave fields and associated [phi] flows of wavicles, are also obtained. As in the causal quantum mechanics of de Broglie and Bohm, wavicles exist continuously and follow definite, stochastic trajectories. Although experimentally equivalent to Einstein's special relativity, this theory differs fundamentally from his general relativity and the associated Big Bang model. According to Linde, the latter predict a large-scale space-time curvature roughly 60 orders of magnitude greater than observed values. Here a flat large-scale geometry is predicted, in agreement with the observed distribution of galaxies. This theory is also consistent with recent observations pertaining to the age of the universe.

Unitary Theory of Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity

Eliade N. Stefanescu

Essentially, in this paper we propose a new description of the quantum dynamics by two relativistic propagation wave packets, in the two conjugated spaces, of the coordinates and of the momentum. Compared to the Schrödinger-Dirac equation, which describes a free particle by a wave function continuously expanding in time, considered as the amplitude of a probabilistic distribution of this particle, the new equations describe a free particle as an invariant distribution of matter propagating in the two spaces, as it should be. Matter quantization arises from the equality of the integral of the matter density with the mass describing the dynamics of this density in the phases of the wave packets. In this description, the classical Lagrange and Hamilton equations are obtained as the group velocities of the two wave packets in the coordinate and momentum spaces. When to the relativistic Lagrangian we add terms with a vector potential conjugated to coordinates, as in the Aharonov-Bohm effect, and a scalar potential conjugated to time, we obtain the Lorentz force and the Maxwell equations as characteristics of the quantum dynamics. In this framework, the conventional Schrödinger-Dirac equations of a quantum particle in an electromagnetic field obtain additional terms explicitly depending on velocity, as is expected in the framework of relativistic theory. Such a particle wave function takes the form of a rapidly varying wave, with the frequency corresponding to the rest energy, modulated by the electric potential where this particle is confined, the vector potential of the electromagnetic radiation, and the gravitational potential. In the gravitational field of a black hole, the velocity of a quantum particle is directed to the Schwarzschild boundary from the outside and from the inside, without passing this boundary. When the very strong gravitational field of a large agglomeration of matter has spherical symmetry with a radius smaller than the Schwarzschild radius, the quantum particles in the central region are crushed up to quasi-uniform distributions of matter, exploding with velocities much larger than the light velocity, towards the Schwarzschild boundary, but decelerating in the gravitational field and reaching this boundary only in an infinite time. The matter of a black hole has the tendency to concentrate around the Schwarzschild boundary, with a radius proportional to its mass. In this framework, we believe that our universe is a huge black hole, with the explosion of its central matter as the Big Bang-inflation process, and an increasing radius on account of an absorption of matter from the Total Universe, where our universe has been formed. In a gravitational wave, the time-space interval in the first-order approximation is the product of a gravitational invariant including the amplitude tensor, and a coordinate invariant including the polarization vector. The gravitational invariant describes a rotation of the metric tensor around the direction of the propagation of this wave, with spin 2, as a gravitational quantum called graviton. The coordinate invariant describes a matter rotation with the spins ½ for Fermions, and 1 for Bosons. From the new dynamic equations, for a free particle in the coordinate and momentum spaces, we reobtain the two basic equations of the quantum field theory, but with a change of sign, and an additional term depending on momentum, to the rest mass as the eigenvalue of these equations. However, when these eigenvalues are eliminated, the wave function takes the form of a wave packet of spinors of the same form as in the conventional quantum field theory, with a normalization volume as the integral of the ratio of the energy to the rest energy, over the momentum domain which gives finite dimensions to the quantum particle, as a finite distribution of matter in the coordinate space.

Wave-Particle Duality in Einstein-de Broglie Programs

Claude Elbaz

The standard model of particle physics forms a consistent system for universe description.After following quantum mechanics, it derives particles from relativistic quantum fields.Since it does not include gravitation, it describes only one aspect of the universe.In extension of general relativity, Einstein had proposed a symmetrical and complementary approach of physics.In his program, he privileged a relativist field based on representations for physical phenomena, before a precise mathematical description.It allows completing and unifying the universe description, like both eyes for relief vision, and both ears for stereophonic audition.We propose to show it with many simple examples.

Expanded theory of relativity: Demonstrating wave-particle duality as an integral part of relativity theory

J. Manuel Oliveira, J Manuel Oliveira

This paper presents a novel theory of wave mechanics derived from a re-examination of the foundations of relativity. By expanding the traditional linear transformation ansatz to include a vector-valued temporal component, we demonstrate that Einstein's postulates, coupled with the principle of single-valued time, are sufficient to predict wave-like, quantizable behavior in particle motion. This approach naturally leads to a Clifford algebra framework and reveals the necessity of a dynamic, higher-dimensional temporal space. We derive Lorentz transformations and demonstrate the origin of the spacetime metric's signature. Furthermore, we obtain relations analogous to De Broglie's and show compatibility with Planck's distribution law. Notably, our theory provides a unified framework for spin-0 and spin-1/2 particles and offers a complete, normalized solution for a particle at rest, resolving a long-standing challenge in quantum mechanics. The inherent coupling of the Einstein Field Equations with the derived wave equation suggests potential implications for cosmology, including alternative explanations for dark matter and MOND. This work establishes a foundation for a new, consistent, and intuitive understanding of the quantum world, with experimentally testable predictions that distinguish it from conventional quantum mechanics.
