Introduction

Physics today is fragmented, with different theories explaining the universe at large scales (General Relativity) and tiny scales (Quantum Mechanics). Relational Time Geometry (RTG) aims to unify these frameworks by introducing a simple yet powerful concept: the universe emerges entirely from dynamic interactions between fundamental entities called “whirling nodes.” Recent simulations of proton structures have demonstrated RTG’s potential in effectively modeling stable particle behaviors and bridging classical and quantum phenomena.

Core Principles

  • Whirling Nodes and Oscillating Frequencies: Whirling nodes, if merely random in motion, would not yield a stable or structured universe. Crucially, these nodes possess oscillating frequencies, enabling them to enter resonant relationships. These resonances, governed by precise frequency alignments, allow stable structures to emerge from what would otherwise be chaotic interactions.
  • Emergence, not Fundamental: In RTG, space-time, mass, fields, and forces are not fundamental; rather, they emerge naturally from the dynamic interactions and resonance patterns of whirling nodes.
  • Relational Time: Time is not absolute; it emerges locally from the interactions and resonance patterns between nodes. Similarly, space itself is relational, and spatial distances are relative to the observer, as are mass and other emergent properties. Simulations reveal time as a series of iterative node state updates.
  • Whirling Nodes and Spin: Each node has a characteristic frequency, phase, and spin state, essential in determining how they interact and resonate. Spin alignment significantly enhances resonance strength, crucial for stability in particle structures.
  • Emergence through Resonance: Stable structures—like quarks and protons—form naturally as nodes resonate with each other, creating self-consistent, emergent patterns verified through detailed simulations.

Fractal Architecture

RTG proposes that the universe is structured in a hierarchical, fractal-like manner, with each level emerging from resonant interactions at smaller scales:

  • Pre-nodes: Fundamental building blocks (scale ~10⁻¹⁷ m, frequencies ~10²⁶ Hz).
  • Particles (Quarks, Protons): Composed of resonating nodes (intra-quark distances ~10⁻¹⁶ m, frequencies ~10²⁵ Hz).
  • Atoms and Molecules: Formed from particle interactions (~10⁻¹⁰ m, frequencies ~10²¹ Hz).
  • Macroscopic Structures (Crystals): Larger structures following similar resonance principles (~10⁻⁹ m, frequencies ~10²⁰ Hz).

This fractal resonance-based approach provides a unified explanation for structure formation across scales.

Reinterpreting Physical Laws

  • Gravity: Modeled as resonance gradients at larger scales; frequency differences among nodes create emergent attraction, reinterpreting gravitational forces relationally.
  • Electromagnetism: Emerges naturally from spin and phase-aligned node interactions, successfully explaining observed charge properties in proton simulations.
  • Entropy and Thermodynamics: Entropy reflects relational diversity and coherence breakdown; RTG offers new insights into stability, equilibrium, and the flow of time.

Philosophical and Scientific Implications

RTG suggests that space and time are not fundamental but arise from underlying interactions, offering a fresh perspective on phenomena like time dilation, causality, and particle-wave duality. By reframing the foundations of physics relationally, RTG may resolve longstanding philosophical and scientific paradoxes.

Future Directions

  • Model Refinement: Ongoing proton simulations continue to align RTG predictions with empirical measurements such as particle mass, size, charge, and force.
  • Extended Simulations: Future models will explore larger, more complex systems like atoms and molecules, further validating RTG’s explanatory power.
  • Theoretical Integration: Integrating RTG interpretations of Lorentz transformations and causality will solidify the theory’s foundations and expand its predictive scope.

Call to Collaboration

RTG is an open framework inviting collaboration across disciplines:

  • Physicists: Test RTG predictions against experimental data.
  • Mathematicians: Develop formalisms to describe spin-based resonance and fractal hierarchies.
  • Computer Scientists: Enhance computational simulations of node dynamics.

We encourage participation from all who are inspired by this relational vision of the universe.
