Particle Colliders are Primitive Technology
The LHC particle collider costs about 5 billion euros to build and has operating cost of about 1 billion euros per year. The proposed next generation particle collider at CERN is expected to cost over 25 billion euros to build. These are tremendously expensive and unnecessary follies. With the point charge architecture of nature in…

Mapping the Friedmann Equations
The Friedmann equations are a set of equations in physical cosmology that govern the expansion of space in homogeneous and isotropic models of the universe within the context of general relativity. They were first derived by Alexander Friedmann in 1922 from Einstein’s field equations of gravitation for the Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker metric and a perfect fluid with…

Depicting Assemblies and Reactions as Paths
Imagine how much fun it would be to diagram the network of processes in a radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG) using point charge theory. Visualize tracing the provenance and path of every point charge involved in the main process sequence. Trace the PE and KE as it flows. RTG’s are advanced technology by current standards. Yet,…

Quark Epoch : Emerging/Surviving Quarks Couple Vortices
Let’s remap the Big Bang cosmology timeline to the point charge universe! This series has already covered higher energy epochs listed below. Big Bang Cosmology NPQG Cosmology The Quark epoch was the period in the evolution of the early universe when the fundamental interactions of gravitation, electromagnetism, the strong interaction and the weak interaction had…

ElectroWeak Epoch : Personality Charges Bond to Noether Cores
Let’s remap the Big Bang cosmology timeline to the point charge universe! This series has already covered higher energy epochs listed below. Big Bang Cosmology NPQG Cosmology The electroweak epoch was the period in the evolution of the early universe when the temperature of the universe had fallen enough that the strong force separated from…

Inflationary Epoch : Noether Cores Form
Let’s remap the Big Bang cosmology timeline to the point potential universe! The inflation phase of the timeline is shown in the figure. Inflation follows the Planck epoch and occurs in parallel with the Grand Unification epoch. Big Bang Cosmology NPQG Cosmology Cosmic inflation expands space by a factor of the order of 1026 over…

Grand Unification Epoch: Binaries Dominate
Let’s remap the Big Bang cosmology timeline to the point charge universe! In the first post of the chronology of the universe we covered the transformation of the Planck epoch from Big Bang cosmology to point charge cosmology : Planck Epoch : Peak Density of Energetic Point Charges. In terms of forces, gravity had emerged and…

Planck Epoch : Peak Density of Energetic Point Potentials
Let’s remap the Big Bang cosmology timeline to the point potential universe! We’ll start with the Planck epoch which is labeled “quantum gravity wall” in the first figure. Additional figures show relevant information and concepts. After that, we’ll delve into remapping the Big Bang timeline to the more sensible and parsimonious point charge universe. The…

Maya Benowitz : On the Origins of the Universe and the Nature of the Cosmological Singularity
Maya Benowitz tweeted about an ambitious new open source program titled, “On the Origins of the Universe and the Nature of the Cosmological Singularity.” That title caught my eye as well as the open source project, because NPQG is also open source. So, I went to github and joined the project and made a few…

Do Black Holes Emit Spacetime Aether?
I asked ChatGPT about research on superfluid models of spacetime, specifically regarding where superfluid comes from in those models. ChatGPT gracefully dodged the question, but in doing so, provided context for a new speculative idea that occurred to me. This idea is counter-intuitive at first, yet has the characteristics of “hiding in plain sight” such…

The Equation of Nature and the Universe
The image below shows the evolution equation of nature and the universe. This is it! Everything emerges from this equation and a density of energetic point potentials in Euclidean time and space. Let’s go through the equation step by step. The evolution equation of the universe leads to emergence of assemblies that implement the particles…

Barry Barish
In 2019-ish I attended a Barry Barish talk about LIGO at UC Riverside. Afterwards, I approached to ask a question. Barry had an aide with him and you could tell they both stiffened up at the thought I might have an original idea and try to engage. In fact, right in front of me, the…

Mapping Gluons
Let’s brainstorm the mapping of quantum chromo-dynamic’s gluon to the vortices of two coupled binaries and possibly include their personality charges. As a refresh, all standard matter assemblies have a nested tri-binary Noether core. That includes spacetime aether assemblies in a Higgs formation. There is no shortage of binaries to couple with if the conditions…

Do Nested Binaries Synchronize?
This is a brainstorm post. These are ideas to investigate as progress on NPQG continues. I wonder if the three binaries in a generation I Noether energy core will tend to reach a resonant set of frequencies based on the nesting. What defines those resonances? How can this be described mathematically? I’ve seen a number…

Mapping “Spinning Gluons in the Proton”
I thought it might be fun to try to map this article to NPQG. Spinning Gluons in the ProtonAuthor Stephen D. Bass Mapping to NPQG Computer simulations indicate that about 50% of the proton’s spin comes from the spin of the gluons that bind its quark constituents. In point charge theory “spin 1/2” is related…
