THE FOUNDATION OF PHYSICS TOM GEHRELS UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA
THE LEADING QUESTION “WHERE DOES ALL THIS COME FROM ?” “HOW DID OUR PHYSICS ORIGINATE”
OVERVIEW • EQUATIONS:FROM PLANCK, CHANDRASEKHAR • TESTED WITHIN OUR UNIVERSE • DISCOVERY:FINITE MASS OF OUR UNIVERSE DISCOVERY:MANY UNIVERSES • FUTURE WORK
THE PLANCK DOMAIN LENGTH = (Gh/c3)0.5 MASS = (hc/G)0.5 UNIVERSAL MASS = (hc/G)α, IN H •UNIFIED - COSMIC - PHYSICS •ORIGINS
MAX PLANCK • COSMOLOGICAL UNITS OF MEASUREMENT • HIS AIM: COSMOS’UNIFIED PHYSICS • h QUANTUM, c RELATIVITY, G GRAVITY, H ATOMIC PHYSICS
MAX PLANCK’S h CONSTANT, 1899 …OFFERS THE POSSIBILITY OF ESTABLISHING UNITS FOR LENGTH, MASS, TIME AND TEMPERATURE, WHICH… MAINTAIN THEIR MEANING FOR ALL TIMES AND FOR ALL CULTURES, INCLUDING EXTRATERRESTRIAL AND NONHUMAN ONES…
THE COSMOS IS QUANTIZED M(α) = (hc/G)α THEORY TYPE OF OBJECT OBSERVED α M(α)α 2.00 1.1 x 1078 Baryonic Universe 1.998-2.008 1.50 3.5 x 1058 Early-type star 1.49-(1.53) 0.50 3.3 x 1019 Planck mass 0.00 1 Proton mass
THERE IS A MULTIVERSE (hc/G)αIS OPEN TO ALL VALUES OF α • ORIGIN OF OUR FINE-TUNED PHYSICS • SUPPLY PROBLEM • UNIFORMITY PROBLEMS
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MULTIVERSE •QUANTIZATION HIERARCHY •SAME MASS, SAME PHYSICS •TRIAL-AND-ERROR EVOLUTION
SUMMARY AND COMING NEXT EQUATIONS TABLE: PROTON, P.MASS, STAR, UNIVERSE OBSERVATIONS, NUCLEOSYNTHESIS QUANTIZATION HIERARCHY,THEIRS & OURS ………………………………………………… LEADING QUESTION: HOW DO NEW UNIVERSES COME FROM THE MULTIVERSE?

LEADING QUESTION HOW DO NEW UNIVERSES COME FROM THE MULTIVERSE ?
NOT BASED ON THE EQUATIONS BUT ON UNDERSTANDING OF: 1. INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM AND OF 2. PRESENT BIG BANG THEORY
OVERVIEW AGING & DECAY OF OUR UNIVERSE INTER-UNIVERSAL MEDIUM NOTABIG BANG AT t = 0 SECS BUT A PROTON BANG LATER
DECAY SAKHAROV - HEAVIER ELEMENTS FASTER SUB-ATOMIC PARTICLES T < 10 K, PHOTONS, NEUTRINOS, GALAXIES, DARK MATTER AND ENERGY? ISM ANALOGIES, SWEEPING, CLOUDS I U M
THE INTER-UNIVERSAL MEDIUM STARS AND GALAXIES AGE BY TRANSITION TO HEAVIER ELEMENTS ACCRETION AS IN ISM, BUT ON LARGER, LONGER SCALES
BIG BANG PROTON BANG •SUPPLY • PHYSICS •• UNIFORMITY, GALAXIES • DEGENERATE • ENERGY RECOMBINATION • DARK MASS t = 0 10-6 s, 1018KG/M3, 1013 K, 0.6 AU
FUTURE WORK • MODELING AND CHECKING •ROLE OF DARK MATTER
CONFIRMATION DISCOVERY SIZE OF UNIVERSE, PLANCK DENSITY, 1095 KG M-3 (hc/G)2 H1-2α / c5/hG2 THIRD ROOT : h/cH R = 8.197 3725 x 10-16 m OBSERVED: 6<R<10 IF OUR UNIVERSE WERE EVER AT PLANCK DENSITY, ITS SIZE WAS THAT OF THE PROTON
