TFNR - The states of the Elementary Field

We can observe / consider Physical states essentially at two macro levels of complexity of Physical Reality:

• States of Elementary Field: Physical States at the level of the Elementary Field, regarding the Modes of Physical Action: Perturbation, Translation, Rotation (Rotation:Chirality and Rotation:AxisOrientation)
• States of Physical Fields: Physical States at the level of the Derived Physical Fields, regarding the Derived structured physical forces and fields and the Properties of Physical Structures of Information: Space-time metric and Mass, Motion, Charge, Spin, and the more complex, closer to the discrete / quantized dimension, the Weak nuclear force and field and the Strong nuclear force and field.

A State of the Elementary Field is any possible configuration of the Elementary Field, of the organization of the Physical Relations between Elementary Events in / of it, any snapshot of an elementary Physical Process, in the totality of the Elementary Field or of more or less extended portions of it.

We must consider these "states" as conditions, ways / modes of organization of the Events that occur in the Elementary Field and that make up its Dynamics.

Among the States of Elementary Field, in relation to the way / mode / complexity of expression / manifestation of the "Primary Source of Reality" both from the causal (from the side of the Fundamental Force) and variational point of view (from the side of the Elementary Field), we can identify these four macro states:

• Nothingness -> Inexistence
• Emptiness -> Elementary Existence -> Absolute Vacuum -> Action without a form
• Somethingness -> Complex Existence -> Essence / Form -> Information, Energy, Structures, Void (relative vacuum), Radiant energy, Matter, Forms, Systems
• Wholeness -> the whole Existence -> the whole Essence / Form -> Universe

States of Elementary Field

Nothingness

Nothingness is the state in which there is no expression / manifestation of the Primary Source of Reality. Which contains nothing. Set without elements. Absence of Events, of Action. Absence of fluctuations of the Elementary Field. No Causality, no Variationality (no Spatiality and Temporality). We associates Nothingness with the condition of Inexistence.

It is the state of the Elementary Field that we can define as "negative", characterized by the absence of the Action of the Fundamental Force.

It is a purely hypothetical state as the existence of the Source, and its active aspect we call the Force, presupposes its Action on the Elementary Field, which incessantly operates the phase transition from Nothingness to the most elementary form of existence, Emptiness, a completely homogeneous Elementary Field. We call this phase transition: Creation.

This is a concept substantially different from the common one: absence of matter / absence of energy / absence of phenomena.

In short: absence of Elementary Event, no fluctuations of the Field. No interaction between Force and Field, no manifestation of the Source. It is a hypothetical state, because the Source cannot avoid expressing itself.

Some notes about Nothingness, Nothing, the Absolute:

• "Nothing" is absolute, everything that exists is relative
• Only "Nothing", Nothingness is absolute
• Nothingness is non existence
• Nothingness don't exists
• Everything is relative, Everything is made of Events organized / connected by Relations in Processes

Emptiness

Emptiness is the state in which there is a first elementary expression / manifestation of the Primary Source of Reality. Absence of inhomogeneities in the distributions of Elementary Events, Absence of Action. Absence of inhomogeneities in the temporal distributions of the spatial fluctuations of the Elementary Field. Causality and Variationality (Spatiality and Temporality) are expressed but in an elementary form. No Modes of Action (Perturbation, Translation, Rotation (Rotation:Chirality and Rotation:AxisOrientation), no useful Energy, no Information, no Structures, no Forms. Only Elementary Events exist, with absolute homogeneous distributions. No Space-time Metric, no Mass, no Motion, no Charge, no Spin, no more complex forms of Derived structured physical forces and fields, like weak and strong nuclear forces and fields.

It is the state of the Elementary Field that we can define as "neutral", characterized by the presence of the Action of the Fundamental Force on the Elementary Field, but in an absolutely elementary form.

This is also a purely hypothetical state as the existence of the Source, and its active aspect we call the Force, produces its Action on the Elementary Field, which incessantly operates the phase transition from Emptiness, the most elementary form of Existence, a completely homogeneous Elementary Field, to Somethingness, a more complex form of Existence, the appearing of evolving inhomogeneities in / of the Elementary Field. We call this phase transition: Evolution.

This is a concept substantially different from the common one: absence of matter, of ordinary matter.

In short: absolute homogeneity of the distributions of the Elementary Events; unstructured Field; no Dark (invisible) nor Ordinary (visible) Structures, no Matter and no Radiation (no gravitational waves, and no electromagnetic waves). No correlation among Elementary Events, full stochastic independence of the temporal distributions of the spatial fluctuations of the Field in all the Modes / Components of the Elementary Action. The most elementary form of existence. The homogeneous, not perturbed, quantum vacuum.

Somethingness

Somethingness is the state in which there are more complex expressions / manifestations of the Source of Reality. Organization of inhomogeneities in the distributions of Elementary Events, presence of Action and its Modes. Presence of nhomogeneities in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Elementary Field. Causality and Variationality (Spatiality and Temporality) are expressed in increasing complex forms. Emergence and organization of the Modes of Physical Action (Perturbation, Translation, Rotation (Rotation:Chirality and Rotation:AxisOrientation). Emergence and organization of useful Energy, Information, Structures, Forms. Organized Elementary Events exist, with inhomogeneous distributions. Space-time Metric, Mass, Motion, Charge, Spin, and more complex forms of Derived structured physical forces and fields, like weak and strong nuclear forces and fields, and all the more and more complex forms of organization of Energy and Matter, as structured Physical Information.

It is the state of the Elementary Field that we can define as "positive", characterized by the presence of the Action of the Fundamental Force on the Elementary Field in increasingly complex forms.

Unlike Nothingness and Emptiness, Somethingness is a real state as the existence of the Source, and it active aspect we call the Force, produces its Action on the Elementary Field, Events and Relations that organize them, which incessantly operates the phase transition from Emptiness, the most elementary form of Existence, a completely homogeneous Elementary Field, to Somethingness, a more complex form of Existence, the appearing of evolving inhomogeneities in / of the Elementary Field. As already mentioned, we call this phase transition: Evolution.

In short: this state corresponds to the structured Field. Presence of Structures of Information, which organize the Field under the incessant creative and evolutive pressure of the acting Force:

Energy

• Energy in the unstructured Field
  • Elementary Energy

• Energy in the structured Field
  • Dark Energy
  • Ordinary Energy

Structures of Information

• Dark (invisible) Structures: low density diffused extended structures (Vortices: Dark Halos; Waves: Gravitational Waves; Interactions: cosmic web)
  • Vortices composed by:
    • Dark Matter (positive mass): low density negative spatial correlations in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field
    • Dark Energy (negative mass): low / medium density positive spatial correlations in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field
  • Waves / Energy Structures / Radiant Energy:
    • Gravitational Waves: low density spatial correlations in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field

• Ordinary (invisible) Structures: high density compact structures (Vortices: massive particles as leptons, quarks, bosons; Waves: electromagnetic waves; Interactions: composite particles as baryons and mesons):
  • Vortices:
    • Ordinary Matter + Dark Energy: (positive mass in the inner space volume, negative mass/positive dark energy in the outer space regions): high density inner negative and low density outer positive spatial correlations in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field
  • Waves / Energy structures / Radiant energy:
    • Electromagnetic Waves: high density spatial correlations in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field

But we will talk about this in detail in the next chapter...

The sum, or better the interaction, of all the "states" above listed, attributable to the state we call Somethingness, make up the Everything, the whole Reality, the Universe in Evolution, the state of Wholeness.

Wholeness

Wholeness is the state in which there is all the expression / manifestation of the Primary Source of Reality. Which contains Everything, the whole Universe in Evolution, all that exists.
