Abstract

In this article a particle is being presented that explains all known forces of nature. The particle has no dimensions, it is a dimensional basic particle. Hence it gets the following name: 'dimensional basic' (db) particle. The core of this discovery is that the separate fundamental forces of nature: - the strong interaction, the electromagnetic interaction, the weak interaction and the gravitational interaction - are calculatable with one formula out of one principle. The statistical math of the quantum theory is set aside in favor of a goniometric approach. Gravitation is the only force that matters and the strong force, the electromagnetic force and the weak force can be explained out of gravitation while gravity itself is only caused by the curvature of db's. The formula for the extent of curvature around a db is: sqrt(x^2+y^2+z^2) × Kr = 1. In the formula: x, y, z, are coordinates in spacetime [m], Kr = curvature [m^-1]. The question remains whether there is anything in reality that reflects the theory: High-energy collisions (LHC, electron-positron annihilation): Above a certain threshold, more particles are created than predicted. Current physics refers to this as a “virtual particle sea,” but within Metric Science, it is elegant: strong curvature pulls db's together → clusters → new particles. Unexplained “mini-jet” structures in particle accelerators: At the LHC, small jets of particles are sometimes observed that do not quite fit into the standard models in terms of statistics. They seem to indicate substructures that group together and then fall apart again. Temporary db clusters formed by curvature. Vacuum energy and cosmological constant problem: Quantum theory predicts vacuum energy that is far too large. However, the universe itself is relatively flat. If you look at this with Metric Science: db's exist everywhere, but their curvature can partially cancel each other out or smooth each other out. This gives a natural mechanism for a much smaller effective vacuum energy. Gravitational anomalies in photons: There are experiments and observations (such as flyby anomalies or small deviations in lensing data) that cannot be fully explained by classical GR. Within the model, this is possible because db curvature introduces granularity → subtle deviations in light paths. Unexplained resonances in hadron physics: Sometimes “exotic hadrons” (tetraquarks, pentaquarks) appear that do not fit neatly into the standard quark model. In the model: nothing surprising; there are infinitely many possible db configurations, and some happen to cluster more stably or temporarily than the known protons/neutrons. The theory lives on the fringes of current physics. Wherever people say, “this has not yet been neatly explained,” Metric Science could offer a more intuitive geometric explanation.
