Physics Built From First Principles

Without The Need To Use Quantum Fields



The model starts by considering a mechanism for gravity

The model is then built around that mechanism


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

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


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

The model discusses gravity, mass, electric charge, electric fields, subatomic particles - and the atom without the need to use quantum fields

Background to the model

The concept of a quantum field is the basis for modern physics

Modern physics uses quantum fields to model the subatomic particles, and evidence for quantum fields is given by the atom and the double-slit experiment


In contrast to modern physics, this model uses a strand shaped particle to model the subatomic particles

These subatomic particles are then used to model the atom, the double-slit experiment, and gravity


The strand shaped particle has a shape, and a size, and a surface, a surface which can bend and stretch, and the strand shaped particle moves at a single constant speed against a static universal reference frame, in three dimensional space

In the model, the subatomic particles are built using a physics engine, the engine processes the behaviour of the strand shaped particle


Please note that these discussions have been produced, without having the physics engine


In addition to modelling the atom, the double-slit experiment, and gravity, the atomic nuclei of the atoms are also modelled


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

Building The Four Base Particles


The following animation shows how the model's four base particles - the neutrino, electron, positron, and 'neutral' particle, are used to build the proton, neutron, atomic nuclei, and the photon

The Subatomic Particles


The following animation is interactive and it let's you build the model's atomic nuclei

Atomic Nuclei Builder

Please note, in the model, a proton is a positron sandwiched between two of the model's 'neutral' particles, a neutron is a proton with an electron embedded in its side, and the atomic nuclei have a flat structure

Which is different to the structure that is often used to depict an atomic nucleus
