Principal Claims of the BFUT Programme

40 Claims. Rated by Significance.

Level 3 = earth-shattering results pursued unsuccessfully elsewhere. Level 2 = major impact. Level 1 = important to the programme.

■ Level 3 ■ Level 2 ■ Level 1
L3-1
One single physical constant ρ_s = 5.9 × 10⁻²⁷ kg/m³ governs particle masses, all five Standard Model coupling constants, and atomic stability simultaneously with no per-sector adjustment.
L3-2
No separate particulate dark matter exists. The Spaticle field with the same proven density ρ_s satisfies every observational requirement attributed to dark matter.
L3-3
The Higgs field is not a separate independent field. The Higgs boson is the collective excitation of the Spaticle substrate in its electroweak mode.
L3-4
Black holes have a finite maximum compression density rather than a singularity, dissolving the information paradox.
L3-5
Hawking radiation does not exist. Each of the five foundational premises underlying its derivation is inconsistent with a Spaticle substrate universe.
L3-6
The incompatibility between quantum mechanics and gravity is dissolved. One substrate, one field equation, from the proton to a supercluster.
L3-7
The Big Bang is not the origin of the universe. The Big Flare-Up is the first large-scale nuclear ignition within an already-existing infinite substrate.
L3-8
The cosmological constant problem — a discrepancy of 10¹²² — arises from two specific compounding errors and is resolved directly.
L3-9
The universe is spatially infinite with no physical boundary.
L2-10
The proton, electron, and hydrogen atom form in a single substrate threshold event, with matter-antimatter asymmetry following from a stability filter.
L2-11
The three charged lepton masses follow from a single geometric angle, recovering the Koide relation as a structural necessity.
L2-12
CPT symmetry follows from cancellation waves obeying identical condensation laws with mirror geometry; antihydrogen falls under gravity identically to hydrogen.
L2-13
The four fundamental forces emerge in a fixed sequence, each requiring structural prerequisites from the one before it, and each is also a physical sensing channel.
L2-14
Gravity is the restoring pressure gradient of the Spaticle substrate; Newtonian gravity and GR are derived limits of one underlying field equation.
L2-15
The fine-structure constant, strong coupling, Weinberg angle, W and Z masses, and proton charge radius are each derived from the same substrate geometry with no fitted parameter.
L2-16
The Schrödinger equation, Born rule, half-integer spin, spin-statistics theorem, Pauli exclusion, wavefunction collapse, superposition, entanglement, and Bell-inequality correlations each follow from a physical substrate mechanism.
L2-17
Time is the accumulated evolution of substrate states; SR and GR time dilation are unified under one mechanism.
L2-18
A photon is a substrate disturbance; it shares its propagation speed with gravitational waves for the same underlying reason.
L2-19
GW170817 shows carrier relaxation residuals consistent with the substrate's predicted relaxation timescale.
L2-20
The reduced Planck constant is derived from substrate condensation geometry, with the same derivation fixing action-quantisation and the speed of light.
L2-21
Apparent cosmic acceleration and the Hubble tension arise from gravitationally sorted matter and observer bulk motion, not dark energy.
L2-22
The CMB is a dynamically maintained thermal equilibrium field, not a one-time relic.
L2-23
The cosmological lithium-7 discrepancy is resolved by treating the observed abundance as a regulated steady-state surface quantity.
L2-24
Consciousness is a measurable physical phenomenon with a formal Consciousness Index quantifying it on one universal scale.
L1-25
The Spaticle substrate has measurable finite stiffness, relaxation time, relaxation length, and non-zero vacuum deformation energy.
L1-26
Electromagnetism is bidirectional because two distinct circulation-asymmetry orientations exist; gravity cannot be shielded.
L1-27
The Hubble tension, Andromeda's approach, a supernova dipole, and DESI dark energy variation are each consistent with a gravitationally sorted universe.
L1-28
Current large-scale orientation evidence does not establish a single robust global preferred axis.
L1-29
CMB anisotropies, acoustic peaks, the BAO scale, and a CMB-star-formation cross-correlation are accounted for within the dynamic equilibrium framework.
L1-30
The cosmic web's filament-node-void structure arises from gravitational amplification of statistical unevenness in accumulated matter.
L1-31
Large-scale cosmic rotation follows a measurable hierarchy quantified by a Tension Index, arising from gravity alone.
L1-32
The SZ effect is a direct local thermal interaction, not proof that the CMB lies behind galaxy clusters.
L1-33
The Gunn-Peterson opacity rise does not require a single unique reionization epoch.
L1-34
The ISW stacked signal amplitude is addressed within the substrate framework.
L1-35
The S8 tension in weak lensing surveys is addressed within the substrate framework.
L1-36
Helium-4 abundance is accounted for within the steady-state stellar framework.
L1-37
Evolution can be understood as directed movement toward higher consciousness, with the Consciousness Index producing cross-species rankings and testable predictions.
L1-38
Substituting the substrate-derived ħ into standard QM formulas reproduces Compton wavelength, de Broglie wavelength, uncertainty principle, tunnelling, and harmonic oscillator ground state from one geometric origin.
L1-39
Black hole structure follows a Universal Centrality Rule and Rotational Sustenance Principle, connecting to the M-sigma relation.
L1-40
Deriving the complete fermion mass hierarchy of 18 independent masses from the same geometric origin — ongoing work.
