What would it take to explain gravity and the other three forces? Can a model simpler than 34 elementary particles exist? Can the explanation be based on units that interact only over short distances?
Those questions led to the mnp Model, which suggests that three entities can account for gravity, light, static charge, magnetism, and the elementary particles. All entities travel at the speed of light. The three types differ by "spin" axis only. All entities attract others, repel others, attempt to match "spin", and attract strongly if "spin" matches over a tiny distance. Entities can travel through each other.
The mnp Model is descriptive and does not calculate quantities at the present time. See URL www.worldlyte.com/physics/mnp
Light is a photon (a line of oriented m-figments/mediators) which causes electric and magnetic fields to appear by reorienting the random entities in space. Those fields then affect the photon a little and following photons to a greater extend. The double slit experiment makes intuitive sense in the mnp Model. Static charge fields are caused by the charged body redirecting like charge entities away from the surface of charge, which then recruit m-figments to form a field parallel to the surface, which then directs incoming like charges to move more parallel to the surface and opposite charges more toward the surface.
Matter and mass are based on rings of charge entities, which when combined with a ring of the opposite charge rotating counter to the first, forms a neutrino. Electrons, positrons, and quark units or bulbs are seen as "spheres" formed of rings of one type of charge all rotating the same direction. The rings move when the entity's direction of travel is changed to include a lateral component. Time dilation (slowing of the rings) results from this redirection at velocities a fraction of the speed of light. It appears that length dilation is required for time dilation to match exactly the predictions of relativity (more slowing occurs if length dilation is not present).
Electrons are a surface of rings Standing waves at deBroglie wavelengths do not cause disappearance of the electron but adjustment to a stable orbital. The electron around a nucleus need not be orbiting, but waves and perturbations will travel across the surface at approximately 2c/pi. Around a nucleus, an electron has mediators/m-figments flowing on the surface. Mediators/m-figments released through rings no longer parallel to the orbital surface when the orbital shrinks may organize themselves as a photon.
Quarks are seen as having structure, but with five models and counting, the exact form at "normal" conditions is not decided. Quark units and their connectors (and electrons in shells) recruit the third type of entity (mediators aka m-figments) to flow over the surface and act as glue at the connection between string and unit. At relativistic speed, the mnp Model predicts that more mediators/m-figments will be recruited over the surface of the quarks. The quark units, covered with mediators/m-figments do not act as strongly charged surfaces. The covering attracts other covered surfaces with compatible spin. The covering of the connecting strings probably recruits charge units to form rings which could lead to quark change (or repair).
Gravity is stochastic. All three basic entities act as gravitons. Since the entities behave differently and combine into structures differently, gravitational calculations at an astronomic scale become astronomically more complicated.
The author does not contend that the mnp Model is complete. With 4 forces and 4 or 5 degrees of freedom in how each of those forces interact, the computational work is formidable before the mnp Model claims to model the real universe.
