On a common law for Malus and Bell

Malus's law and the correlations of Bell-type experiments yield the same curve, the squared cosine of the angular gap between two polarizers. We show that they are the same phenomenon. A polarizer is a pair of orthogonal planes: its response is binary, exact on the axis and on th...

Version note — v11 Periodicity of Nuclear Structure and Emergent Electronic Periodicity — 26 September 2026 Version 11 completes chapter 5, "Nuclear dynamics", which is now complete. The main additions: Section 5.5: the limits of stability and neutron substitution: the structural...

Periodicity of Nuclear Structure and Emergent Electronic Periodicity

Version 5 : 13 September 2026Text of version 4 unchanged. Addition of the structural atlas of the first four periods: one plate per stable isotope, showing the structure that the writing transcribes. Periods 5 and 6 to follow. This note demonstrates that nuclear structures follow...

Periodicity of Nuclear Structure and Emergent Electronic Periodicity

This working note presents a nuclear filling grammar based on the pairing of particles into structured units (clusters), and shows that it regenerates, with a restricted alphabet and no adjusted parameter, four independent registers over periods 1 to 4 of the periodic table: the...
