We start our
unprecedented journey by descending to the
absolute "bottom line" level of Nature and ask
ourself this simple but pivotal
question:
In
physical terms, what is the absolute simplest
structure that a domain or volume
can have ?
To
this, one may respond with the trivial answer
that the simplest structure is no structure at
all, i.e., that the domain be
unstructured.
Vacuum
by being devoid of everything is such an
unstructured entity, and therefore, is the most
trivial candidate. The answer that emerges is
therefore as follows: "fill up" your domain
with vacuum, and you most certainly will have
the simplest physical structure that a
domain/volume can be endowed with. So far so
good.
But
now, let's say that someone else will intervene
in this discussion, stating that we may conceive
as an equally good answer to the posted
question by "filling up" the respective domain
not with vacuum but with some
unstructured substance which may be
called xenosubstance (XS) ("xeno"
in Greek meaning "strange"). Thus, the most
general answer that will emerge is that any
admixture of xenosubstance and vacuum would
constitute the most general absolute simplest
physical structure that a domain, a
volume, or a space can have.
We
call then the xenosubstance and vacuum as the
primary ingredients of
Nature (PINs) and their admixture as the
primary or primeval admixture
of Nature (PAN).
We
mark this first important result of TRUTON as
follows:
|
.
|
|
The
admixture of xenosubstance and vacuum
represents the most general
representation of the bottom-line
physical structure that Nature can
have.
|
Two and only two basic representations of this
primordial admixture are possible as illustrated
in Figs. 1A or 1B.

two primordial admixtures of
xenosubstance (XS) and vacuum
(V).

Here
we have a representation of "patches"
of xenosubstance (XS) immersed in
vacuum (V).
|
|
In
FIG. 1B, we have the reverse
representation: vacuum "bubbles"
immersed into
xenosubstance..

A
composite representation: in FIG.
1AB and FIG. 1BA above, we have two
(2) respective composite pictures
where the right side "patch" of
xenosubstance (of FIG. 1A) and the
right side "bubble" of vacuum (of
FIG. 1B) have been replaced
respectively with the entire
corresponding system furnished in
FIGs. 1B and 1A.
|
These
two basic representations can, in turn, be
combined further in an indefinite
number of ways as illustrated in the above
two (2) representations of FIGs. 1AB and
1BA, respectively.

WITH
CARE

|
We
emphasized the word "indefinite " from
the previous sentence since any time,
in a physical description of Nature, we
encounter the words "indefinite" or
"infinite" we shall be on alert as that
is an unmistakable indication that
something is wrong with the respective
representation in question as these two
words, "indefinite" and "infinite",
have no meaning within a description of
Nature, they only can have meaning
within the context of Mathematics.
Examples of such meaningless physical
descriptions are for instance, infinite
speed, infinite mass, infinite density,
infinite volume, infinite temperature,
etc.
|
|
|
|
We
shall express this paramount
recognition into the
|
|
|
.
|
|
|

|
First Fundamental
Principle of Nature:
In
Nature, no physical parameter
of characterization can reach
the infinite value.
|
|
Thus, from this alert furnished by the First
Fundamental Principle of Nature, we know that we
need to add more detail to the starting point
since we know that we cannot have an infinite
number of representations for the primary
admixture of the Universe. The uncharted
landscape of our journey demands extreme caution
for each and every single step that we take so
let us proceed cautiously.
|
We
introduced xenosubstance and vacuum as
the primary "ingredients" of Nature. As
in Mathematics, this means that these
two "ingredients" by the virtue of
being primary cannot be reduced one
into another or into anything else nor
produced through any means. We shall
express this recognition through
our
|
|
.
|
|
|
Second Fundamental
Principle of Nature:
|
The
primary ingredients of Nature,
xenosubstance and vacuum, are
irreducible in the sense that there
is no physical process that can
convert one into another, reduce
them into something else, or
generate them from something
else.
|
|
REMARK:
From the 2nd Fundamental Principle in
Nature it follows that neither
xenosubstance nor vacuum can be
produced in Nature by any means --as
these "ingredients" or "elements" are
given entities at the baseline
foundation of Nature.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
!
|
|
|
The
first basic question that we need to
answer is whether or not the two
basic representations provided above
in Figs. 1A and 1B respectively for
the primary admixture of Nature are
truly independent one from another
or whether in fact one can be
derived from another.
|
|
If in fact the two representations
(Fig. 1A and 1B) are truly independent
(i.e., that they cannot be derived one
from another), then we will have the
additional burden of choosing which one
must be the correct representation. And
this is because of the recognition
|
that
the current Universe could not
possibly be built out of two
independent primary structures of
Nature.
|
|
Without
having a single denominator nothing can
be build without collapsing.
|
|
To study whether or not there is a
transformation capable of transforming
one representation (or picture) of the
primeval admixture of Nature into
another, we need to recognize first
that
|
i)
any transformation (by merely being
a transformation) imply the
existence of a motion of some sort;
and that
|
ii)
we need to have a better formulation
of the two primary ingredients of
Nature --the xenosubstance and the
vacuum if we are to understand what
transformation(s), if any, they are
capable of undertaking.
|
|
Since we are at the very begining of
our journey where we are laying down
the foundation for the path yet to be
paved and traveled for our "outwards"
study of Nature, we know that, as in
Mathematics, we need to have a body of
primary propositions --the axioms which
shall stand as the pilars for our
(outwards deductive rattional) theory.
But unlike in Mathematics, our
introduced axioms must have a
physical meaning and justification for
their existence.
So
far, at the axiomatic level, we have
introduced vacuum (V) and
xenosubstance (XS) as the primary
ingredients of Nature. We also
introduced two basic forms of
representing this primary admixture of
Nature (Fig. 1A and 1B above) which, in
turn, we noted that it can be combined
into an infinite substructure (Fig. 1AB
and 1BA above) --an absurdity by the
First Fundamental Principle of Nature.
Thus, we are faced with our first
challenge --that of selecting the
unique representation of the primary
admixture of Nature. And that choice is
between the representation vested in
Fig. 1A and the representation vested
in Fig. 1B.
|
|
!
|
.
|
Regardless
of the particular primeval
representation (be it the one of
Fig. 1A or the one of
Fig. 1B), xenosubstance and vacuum
are part of the same thing --the
primeval admixture of Nature. Therefore
they must somehow reflect that
bottom-line alliance in a most
fundamental way. The see the connection
of that primary alliance of the
constituents of the primary
ingredients of Nature
(PINs), we obviously need to add
additional properties of
characterization to the PINs, not only
to differentiate them, but also to see
in which way they are being united
--the subject of our next
sections.
