The group structure bases of a foundational approach to physics
Peter Rowlands, J. P. Cullerne, Brian D. Koberlein
Based on a fundamental symmetry between space, time, mass and charge, a series of group structures of physical interest is generated, ranging from C2 to E8. The most significant re…
The factor 2 in fundamental physics
Peter Rowlands
A brief history is given of the factor 2, starting in the most elementary considerations of geometry and kinematics of uniform acceleration, and moving to relativity, quantum mecha…
QED using the nilpotent formalism
Peter Rowlands, J. P. Cullerne
The nilpotent formalism for the Dirac equation, outlined in previous papers,is applied to QED. It is shown that what is usually described as 'renormalization' is effectively a stat…
The Dirac algebra and grand unification
Peter Rowlands, J. P. Cullerne
A representation of the Dirac algebra, derived from first principles, can be related to the combinations of unit charges which determine particle structures. The algebraic structur…
A foundational approach to physics
Peter Rowlands
A core level of basic information for physics is identified, based on an analysis of the characteristics of the parameters space, time, mass and charge. At this level, it is found…
Applications of the nilpotent Dirac state vector
Peter Rowlands, J. P. Cullerne
The nilpotent version of the Dirac equation is applied to the baryon wavefunction, the strong interaction potential, electroweak mixing, and Dirac and Klein-Gordon propagators. The…
