Podcasts - The Mathematical Electron

The mathematical electron model comprises a series of articles on different aspects of physics that describe how these aspects may be coded by a simulation universe that operates at the Planck scale. The model is built using \(\pi\) (rotation) and Euler's e (expansion) and the fine structure constant \(\alpha\). For the list of articles, see homepage.

Podcasts for each section


I used Gemini notebook AI to make podcasts to introduce each section as the articles over time have grown in length. Gemini tends to be a little theatrical, especially in the 1st 2-3 minutes and there are mistakes, spin 1/2 becomes spin 12 etc, but these are easy to pick up, otherwise the quality is not bad.

Overview of the model

1. The tau-loop, the sub-Planck engine

By treating the universe as a continuous internal evaluation function (the \(\tau\)-loop) driven by pi and Euler's identity, we show how the Planck units organically emerge from mathematical forms.

2. Relativity and the Hypersphere

Postulates an expanding 4-axis hypersphere in discrete Planck steps, with relativity as the mathematics of perspective, translating between 2 co-ordinate systems; 3D space and the hypersphere.

6. Natural Planck units and alpha

Gives an analytical derivation of the fine structure constant using only the CODATA values for the dimensioned physical constants. Proposes a set of natural Planck units (independent of any system of units) and a unit relationship linking the units.

3. Gravitational Orbitals

Replaces 'gravity' with a complex of n-body rotating particle-to-particle orbital pairs at the Planck scale. Macro observed orbits emerge over time from the sum of these underlying rotating orbitals.

4. Atomic Orbitals

By replacing wave-particle duality with a wave-state to point-state oscillation, and treating atomic orbitals as a single orbital pair, the gravitational orbital simulation program (#3) can model atomic orbital transitions within the H atom as a semi-continuous spiral and precisely reproduce the Bohr results.

7. The Mathematical Electron

Introduces a geometrical formula for the electron, develops the monopole framework and explores quark-like structures built from the Planck units.

8. Holographic Universe

Examines whether holographic descriptions emerge naturally from the Mathematical Electron framework.
