Description

This paper proposes a new model of description of Reality, founded on a constructivist paradigm, an integral extension of the evolutionary theory to the whole domain of Nature. To improve and extend the knowledge about physical reality, we propose to revise the same pillars of the current physical theories, i.e. the matter centric vision (atomism), the non-locality hypothesis, the theory of big bang and inflation, and to reconsider some other theories, putting them in a wider framework, enhancing their compatibility and descriptive power: among all, the special / general relativity and quantum mechanics. An attempt to reach and reveal the elementary level unity that underlies the multiplicity of the phenomenological reality we directly make experience, to gather the Action on the Field by the Force, which incessantly causes the creation and the evolution of Reality, in its physical and cognitive dimensions. A stimulus to address theoretical and experimental research in new directions, to go beyond the known, to explore new horizons in physics and cosmology.

As part of the Source of Reality, at the most elementary level, we identify a unique Fundamental Force, the fundamental causal agent, that “creates” the Reality, mediating the state transition of the Elementary Field (the space-time field with some enhancement) from Non-Existence to Existence, from the fundamental unstable state of “nothingness” to the unitary Elementary Field. It is the quantum vacuum, in which the incessant and undetermined fluctuations of the space-time itself, a stochastic process in the space and time dimensions, represent the fundamental entity, the elementary “substance”, the unique field from which all the Forms that populate the Reality emerge and evolve. At this level, Physical Reality can be described by three fundamental principles (uncertainty, action and reaction, [[Principle of Least Action|least action), that correspond to the fundamental “modes” of dynamics (gradient, divergence and curl), and, in other words, to the three components of the Elementary Action: Perturbation, Translation and Rotation.

The intensity of this incessant and constant Force, together with the parameters and the constraints of the Field, determines the distributions of the elementary fluctuations of the space-time field, that we call Action, and so, the fundamental properties of Physical Reality: the vacuum electrical permittivity and magnetic permeability, the velocity of propagation of Information in the Field (commonly known as “speed of light”), the quantum of action, the gravitational constant, the fine structure constant, the equilibrium conditions that determines the fundamental parameters of radiation and of dark matter structures and ordinary matter particles (mass, motion, charge and spin).

These parameters extend their influence to all the aspects of Reality, as the complex feedback phenomena called “universe expansion and dark energy”, intimately connected to the processes of matter formation and, more in general, to the dynamics of the cosmos. Furthermore, we will investigate the relationships between continuity and quantization (the Field, as a continuous entity, and the Structures of Information in the Field, the patterns of organization of the elementary fluctuations, as quantized entities), and between the undulatory and corpuscular aspects of the Structures of Information, i.e. ordinary matter particles, dark matter structures, radiation, energy structures and carriers of derived forces.
