Hello. I would like to share with you a theory I have been working on for some time now. I am not a professional physicist so please, bear with some of the simplified terms I use in this abbreviated summary.
-
I have developed a new atomic model that is completely different from the Bohr atomic model that we learned in high school, but at the same time nearly identical (more on this later). I call it The Magnetic Atom. With these magnetic atoms I can unite all forces into one force. I can also unite all particles of matter i.e. electrons, protons and neutrons into one particle. Sub atomic particles such as quarks and leptons are easily understood and explained as well. I do all of this by using a particle that you are all familiar with, the photon, and a particle that quantum physics "allows for the existence of" called a magnetic monopole. You don't need a PhD to understand magnetic monopoles, or any other part of this theory. All you need is a basic understanding of the Bohr atom and an open mind.
-
What is a magnetic monopole according to this theory? Quite simply, it is the force carrying particle of magnetism. There are two types of magnetic monopoles North Pole particles and South Pole particles, and they always exist in pairs. The pairs of particles are perfectly balanced so that total polarity of all stable matter and energy is 0. Thus, the total polarity for the entire universe is 0. In order to easily visualize what magnetic monopoles are consider the following: When you place a permanent magnet into a pile of iron filings, the particles that align the filings are magnetic monopoles.
-
From here on I will refer to magnetic monopoles simply as magnets, because that is what they are. You will see eventually that the iron portion of what today we call a permanent magnet, is not actually the magnet. The iron is just regular matter that has s special arrangement of atoms that allow it to stably hold extra magnets. In the future we will see a permanent magnet for what it truly is - a battery.

The entire universe can be explained using only two things: Magnets and photons. In the universe, there exists an infinite amount of these magnets, and a nearly infinite amount of photons. Photons have a very tiny mass. Magnets are truly massless. Unlike the magnets however, photons have no polarity, they are neutral. because of this, magnets, both North and South, are attracted to the photons. The magnets gather around the photons and create magnetic fields. These magnetic fields will have a total polarity of 0, because there will be even amounts of North and South pole magnets attracted. The more photons in a given volume of empty space, the more magnets will be attracted. The magnets will drag along any photons they have in their fields to areas with more photons. This attraction of smaller groups of photons to larger groups is the basis for all of the forces we observe in the universe.
-
When a critical amount of photons have been gathered together, the magnetic fields they attract become so strong that the photons slow down and collect in groups. These packets of magnetically held in place photons are what we have been calling Protons and Neutrons. One could also define the packets that make up quarks as the elementary building block of matter, but in the interest of simplicity for now we will just say say that our newly defined Neutrons and Protons are the building blocks of all matter.
The magnetic fields that hold the packets of photons into Neutrons and Protons are the Strong Nuclear Force. This magnetic field holds Neutrons and Protons together into the stable nuclear configurations outlined on the Periodic Table. These stable nuclei are the elements, Hydrogen, Iron, Gold etc. The nuclei attract magnets as well, however the stable magnetic field around the nucleus regulates the amount of photons that can be added or removed from the stable nucleus. This is how matter stays in the coherent forms we observe.
-
Outside of the nucleus, magnets that are not holding photons will continue to gather and flow in "streams". The places where these streams intersect will have a large build up of magnets. At a right angle from the large magnetic fields at these intersections you will have an measurable, negative electric field. This electric field is what the Bohr model calls the electron.
-
The Weak Nuclear Force is much more easily explained with magnetic atoms, and it requires no spontaneous transformation of neutrons. Neutrons as you now see are just packets of photons that are completely saturated with magnets. Beta decay is when neutron becomes a proton with a positive charge and an electron with a negative charge according to the Bohr model. What really happens when a neutron "decays" into a proton and electron is the magnetic field that holds the neutron has become disrupted by another, stronger field. The neutron will shed some of its magnets and become "positively charged" because it has enough photons to attract more magnets than are currently influencing it. The magnets that it sheds become a free roaming cluster of magnets with a negative electric charge at a right angle to its field. This packet of magnets will then seek out "positively charged" magnetic fields. This is also why "electricity" flows from negative to positive. The negative charge is an area where you have extra magnets, and the positive charge is an area where you have photons in need of more magnets.
-
So now we have all of the particles and 3 forces explained through the interaction of photons and magnets but what about gravity? To understand gravity consider two objects of different sizes that are near to each other but not touching: a planet and person. The person, (which is really just a collection of photons held in highly complex configurations of photons and magnets) attracts magnets from the surrounding area. Those magnets are also attracted to the planet nearby, and so they move out of the person towards the planet. So there is essentially a river of magnets flowing through the person and on into the planet. The person is dragged along and his body is attracted to the earth with a force that is directly proportional to his mass and the mass of the planet. He also attracts some magnets from the earth to his body, but this attraction is much less, because he has much less mass. And that friends is what gravity is and how it actually works.

This is just the beginning. Using this view of the universe I have uncovered the answers to MANY of the mysteries we have in the universe today. From the sub atomic to the galactic, using this basic theory we can unveil the universe and see it for what it truly is. And the things we will discover will both amaze and terrify us. More of this to come. Please let me know what you think.
