Quantum effects from a purely geometrical relativity theory
A purely geometrical relativity theory results from a construction that
produces from three-dimensional space a happy unification of Kaluza's
five-dimensional theory and Weyl's conformal theory. The theory can provide
geometrical explanations for the following observed phenomena, among others:
(a) lifetimes of elementary particles of lengths inversely proportional to
their rest masses; (b) the equality of charge magnitude among all charged
particles interacting at an event; (c) the propensity of electrons in atoms to
be seen in discretely spaced orbits; and (d) `quantum jumps' between those
orbits. This suggests the possibility that the theory can provide a
deterministic underpinning of quantum mechanics like that provided to
thermodynamics by the molecular theory of gases.Comment: 7 pages, LaTeX jpconf.cls (Institute of Physics Publishing), 6
