1. Introduction: Particles as Resonant Node Clusters
In RTG, particles are not fundamental, point-like entities emerging from pre-existing fields. Instead, they represent emergent, stable configurations of whirling nodes. Each node is defined by its intrinsic frequency (\(\omega\)), phase (\(\phi\)), and spin (\(s\)). The properties we attribute to particles—mass, charge, spin, and stability—are collective resonances arising from interactions among these nodes.
2. Fundamental Node Definition
An RTG node is characterized as: \(f = (\omega, \phi, s)\)
Where:
- \(\omega \in \mathbb{R}^+\): intrinsic frequency
- \(\phi \in [0, 2\pi)\): phase angle
- \(s \in \{+\frac{1}{2}, -\frac{1}{2}\}\): spin (whirling directionality)
Nodes interact through beat frequencies \(|\omega_1 – \omega_2|\), phase relationships \(\Delta\phi\), and spin correlations, creating stable resonances.
3. Composite Structures and Resonance
3.1 Elementary Particles
Elementary particles in RTG are minimal stable node configurations:
- Electron: Represented by a single node interacting resonantly with its surroundings. Exhibits spin -\(\frac{1}{2}\), negative charge (due to asymmetric phase distribution), and a defined inertial mass related to its intrinsic frequency \(\omega_e \approx 7.77 \times 10^{20}\,\text{Hz}\).
- Photon: A propagating relational resonance between two or more nodes, characterized by zero rest mass and spin-1. The photon’s energy is encapsulated by continuous phase oscillation and is described by \(E = \hbar \omega\), where \(\omega\) is the propagation frequency.
3.2 Composite Particles
Larger, composite particles form from stable node clusters:
- Proton: Consists of three quark-like nodes forming a stable trion structure with harmonic resonance patterns ensuring confinement.
- Neutron: A similar three-node structure with slight differences in internal frequency and phase arrangements.
Stability of these particles emerges from tightly regulated beat frequencies and phase locking within femtometer-scale structures.
4. Mass, Charge, and Spin from Node Dynamics
4.1 Mass
Mass arises from collective node frequencies: \[m = \frac{\hbar}{c^2} \sum_i \omega_i\]
4.2 Electric Charge
Charge results from coherent phase asymmetries across the node structure, inducing electromagnetic interactions.
4.3 Spin
Total spin emerges from the net spin and symmetry properties of the node ensemble. Fermionic and bosonic behaviors are consequences of half-integer and integer spin alignments, respectively.
5. Example: Proton Node Structure
- Consists of three quark-like nodes:
- Two Up quarks: \(\omega_u \sim 4.76 \times 10^{23}\,\text{Hz}\)
- One Down quark: \(\omega_d \sim 4.80 \times 10^{23}\,\text{Hz}\)
- Phase arranged in a cyclic triad (0, 2π/3, 4π/3), ensuring color neutrality and confinement.
- Nodes are bound by strong force resonance, described by a Yukawa-type potential.
- Spatial extent approximately 0.8 fm.
6. Emergence of Quantum Numbers
In RTG, quantum numbers (e.g., lepton, baryon, flavor) are not primary but rather emergent, arising from resonance stability conditions and allowed transitions among nodes.
Examples:
- Beta decay: A frequency shift within nodes that results in particle identity transformation.
- Neutrino oscillations: Manifestations of slow beat-frequency drift among low-frequency node groups.
7. Fractal and Hierarchical Node Structures
RTG particle systems exhibit fractal, hierarchical properties:
- Each scale (pre-nodes to quarks, quarks to protons, protons to atoms) features self-similar resonance patterns.
- Stability and resonance conditions repeat across scales, producing fractal-like organization (e.g., atomic and molecular shells, lattice structures).
Key stability criteria include:
- Rational frequency ratios among nodes.
- Phase alignments satisfying \(\Delta \phi = 2\pi n/m\).
- Closed loops of beat frequencies (cyclic resonance).
- Spin conditions aligning with quantum mechanical principles (Pauli exclusion).
8. Toward a Full Node Taxonomy
Future directions include:
- Classifying standard model particles by node resonances.
- Investigating symmetry-breaking in node phase/spin structures.
- Defining resonance thresholds for particle creation and annihilation events.
9. Summary
Particles in RTG are not fundamental substances, but rather emergent, stable resonance patterns formed by interacting frequency-phase-spin nodes. This redefines particles as dynamic relational processes embedded in a unified temporal framework, eliminating the need for intrinsic spatial or field-based descriptions.
