On the electron to proton mass ratio and the proton structure
We derive an expression for the electron to nucleon mass ratio from a
reinterpreted lattice gauge theory Hamiltonian to describe interior baryon
dynamics. We use the classical electron radius as our fundamental length scale.
Based on expansions on trigonometric Slater determinants for a neutral state a
specific numerical result is found to be less than three percent off the
experimental value for the neutron. Via the exterior derivative on the Lie
group configuration space u(3) we derive approximate parameter free parton
distribution functions that compare rather well with those for the u and d
valence quarks of the proton.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
Neutron to proton mass difference, parton distribution functions and baryon resonances from dynamics on the Lie group u(3)
We present a hamiltonian structure on the Lie group u(3) to describe the
baryon spectrum. The ground state is identified with the proton. From this
single fit we calculate approximately the relative neutron to proton mass shift
to within half a percentage of the experimental value. From the same fit we
calculate the nucleon and delta resonance spectrum with correct grouping and no
missing resonances. For specific spin eigenfunctions we calculate the delta to
nucleon mass ratio to within one percent. Finally we derive parton distribution
functions that compare well with those for the proton valence quarks. The
distributions are generated by projecting the proton state to space via the
exterior derivative on u(3). We predict scarce neutral flavour singlets which
should be visible in neutron diffraction dissociation experiments or in
invariant mass spectra of protons and negative pions in B-decays and in
photoproduction on neutrons. The presence of such singlet states distinguishes
experimentally the present model from the standard model as does the prediction
of the neutron to proton mass splitting. Conceptually the Hamiltonian may
describe an effective phenomenology or more radically describe interior
dynamics implying quarks and gluons as projections from u(3) which we then call
allospace.Comment: 28 pages, 9 figures, 6 table
The Higgs mass derived from the U(3) Lie group
The Higgs mass value is derived from a Hamiltonian on the Lie group U(3)
where we relate strong and electroweak energy scales. The baryon states of
nucleon and delta resonances originate in specific Bloch wave degrees of
freedom coupled to a Higgs mechanism which also gives rise to the usual gauge
boson masses. The derived Higgs mass is around 125 GeV. From the same
Hamiltonian we derive the relative neutron to proton mass ratio and the N and
Delta mass spectra. All compare rather well with the experimental values. We
predict scarce neutral flavor baryon singlets that should be visible in
scattering cross sections for negative pions on protons, in photoproduction on
neutrons, in neutron diffraction dissociation experiments and in invariant mass
spectra of protons and negative pions in B-decays. The fundamental predictions
are based on just one length scale and the fine structure constant. More
particular predictions rely also on the weak mixing angle and the up-down quark
flavor mixing matrix element. With differential forms on the measure-scaled
wavefunction, we could generate approximate parton distribution functions for
the u and d valence quarks of the proton that compare well with established
experimental analysis.Comment: 18 pages, 13 figures, 3 table
Neutron charge radius from intrinsic quark flavour generation
The finite, non-zero mean square neutron charge radius is understood in the present work to have a topological origin from an intrinsic neutron configuration in the Lie group U(3). We introduce up and down quark orbits in the configuration for the neutron mass eigenstate. From reciprocal Gaussian curvatures we infer a mean square charge radius of −0.1075 square fermis a few standard deviations away from the world average of −0.1161 square fermis
Transverse proton gluon anisotropy points behind the Standard Model
The present work focuses on transverse gluon densities in the proton and derives exemplar distributions showing azimuthal anisotropies. Such anomalies relative to the Standard Model may be visible in scattering experiments involving protons. I describe baryons as mass eigenstates of a Hamiltonian structure on an intrinsic U(3) configuration space. This has yielded the neutral flavour baryon spectrum and given a rather accurate value for the neutron mass 939.9(5) MeV from first principles. Quark and gluon fields are shaped by the momentum form of the intrinsic wave function. This has led to parton distribution functions for the u and d valence quarks for the proton and to a proton spin structure function agreeing with experiments over four orders of magnitude in the parton momentum fraction
On gravity and quantum interactions
We introduce the metric of general relativity into a description of baryon mass spectra which otherwise has been founded entirely on the concept of an intrinsic configuration space, the Lie group U(3). We find that the general relativistic metric influences the mass eigenstates in gravitational fields. We discuss parts per million effects that may be observed in space missions close to the Sun or the planet Jupiter, for instance by accurate Cavendish experiments or energy shifts in gamma decays of metastable nuclei like Ba-137m. We review how the particle and gauge fields are generated by momentum forms on the intrinsic wave functions to form the quantum field bases for instance of quantum chromodynamics. Our strategy to combine quantum interactions and general relativity is that of geometrising quantum mechanics rather than quantising gravity
