Layered Photon Confinement and the Square Root of two Progression in T. Lockyer's Proton Model: A 3D Orthogonal Coupling Mechanism in the Primordial Plasma

Authors: G. Furne Gouveia
Comments: 8 Pages.

The model of T. Lockyer describes the proton and neutron as positron-based structures with 18 concentric energy layers, each increasing in mass—energy by a factor of $sqrt{2}$, reproducing their mass ratios to the electron with high precision cite{lockyer}. We propose a physical mechanism where this $sqrt{2}$ progression arises from the vectorial coupling of two orthogonal frequency-doubling cascades in the nonlinear primordial plasma. Two scenarios are explored: (1) direct decomposition of two high-energy photons with an energy ratio of $sqrt{2}$ into layered frequencies, and (2) assembly of these frequencies from the plasma’s broadband photon bath, stabilized by nonlinear refractive trapping and whispering-gallery resonances. Frequency-mixing processes (second-harmonic generation, sum-frequency generation, four-wave mixing) and plasma wave phase-matching enable the cascade formation. This speculative model suggests that protons and neutrons form directly from photon interactions; quarks do not exist naturally; they are transient excitations appearing during high-energy collisions in particle accelerators. The strong force is the result of the neutron sharing its electron with a proton. It thus offers an alternative to the Standard Model and a solution to the antimatter asymmetry problem.

From Quarks to Neutrinos: A Fractal Framework for Elementary Particle Hierarchy

Authors: Hacı Soğukpınar
Comments: 14 Pages.

This paper presents Unified Fractal Quantum Field Theory (UFQFT), a novel framework that reinterprets particle physics through fractal field resonances and dimensional scaling. In UFQFT, the mass spectrum of fundamental particles emerges from the fractal dimension (D) of their underlying quantum fields, governed by the scaling law m ∝ |D − 2.70|u207bᵅ, where α distinguishes between quark (α ≈ 1.5) and lepton (α ≈ 2.0) sectors. The theory eliminates the need for gluons by explaining quark confinement via fractal binding energies and recasts the Higgs mechanism as a critical fractal phase transition of the Φ energy field. Key predictions include: (1) the composite nature of the down quark (d ≈ u ⊗ eu207b), (2) neutrino masses as residual Φ-field vibrations (D ≈ 2.72), and (3) proton stability as a consequence of fractal synchrony (Du209a ≈ 2.66). UFQFT challenges the Standard Model by unifying electroweak and strong interactions through geometric field modulation, offering testable signatures in high-energy collisions (e.g., fractal dimension imprints at D ≈ 2.65—2.70). The model’s mathematical consistency and empirical viability are demonstrated through precise mass calculations for quarks (u, d, s, c), leptons (eu207b, νu2091), and hadrons (p, n), with deviations <1% for most particles. This work opens new pathways for beyond-Standard-Model physics by integrating fractal geometry into quantum field dynamics
