Seven particle physics constants derived from 10-dimensional compactification geometry. Average accuracy: 99.5%.
The Standard Model of particle physics contains roughly 20 free parameters — masses, coupling constants, mixing angles — that are measured but not derived. Why the electron has its particular mass, or why the proton-to-electron mass ratio takes the value it does, has no explanation within the Standard Model.
The STF is formulated in a 10-dimensional spacetime that compactifies to the observed 4 dimensions. Using five inputs — ℏ, c, G, the STF field mass ms, and the fermionic structure of the SM (30 degrees of freedom per generation) — closed-form expressions are derived for Standard Model constants. The fine structure constant α = 1/137.036 is used as input (measured to 0.15 ppb precision), not derived.
| Quantity | STF Derived | Measured | Match |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mc | 18.54 M⊙ | 18.53 M⊙ (LIGO) | 99.9% |
Mc = √(50πℏc5/(G²α me)) connects quantum mechanics, relativity, gravity, electromagnetism, and particle physics through 10D geometry. This same chirp mass also emerges from the UHECR pre-merger timing analysis — see UHECR Pre-Merger Timing.
| Quantity | STF Derived | Measured | Match |
|---|---|---|---|
| me | 9.05×10−31 kg | 9.109×10−31 kg | 99.35% |
me = (2π/√30) × ms4/9 × MPl5/9. Exponents 4/9 and 5/9 reflect dimensional projection: 4 observable + 5 compactified = 9 spatial dimensions.
| Quantity | STF Derived | Measured | Match |
|---|---|---|---|
| mp | 1.676×10−27 kg | 1.673×10−27 kg | 99.78% |
mp = (2π/√30) × me × α−3/2. The proton emerges as a “QCD resonance” of the electron, scaled by the electromagnetic coupling.
| Quantity | STF Derived | Measured (Planck) | Match |
|---|---|---|---|
| ηb | 6.10×10−10 | (6.12 ± 0.04)×10−10 | 99.74% |
ηb = (π/2)(α/10)³. The Standard Model prediction is 10 orders of magnitude too small. This provides the first successful derivation of the matter-antimatter asymmetry from known physics, solving the baryogenesis problem.
| Quantity | Formula | STF Value | Measured | Match |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| αs(MZ) | 2π/(ℒ+10) | 0.1163 | 0.1179 ± 0.001 | 98.64% |
| αW(MZ) | 3/(2ℒ) | 0.03408 | 0.03395 | 99.62% |
| mp/me | (2π/√30)α−3/2 | 1840.3 | 1836.15 | 99.77% |
Here ℒ = ln(MPl/mp) = 44.01.
α = 1/137.036 is used as input (measured to 0.15 ppb precision). Mc is derived from α via 10D structure, then independently validated against LIGO observations — the gold standard of theory-first physics. The recurring factor 2π/√30 = 1.147 encodes the projection of 10D physics onto 4D observables through the 30-component fermionic Hilbert space.
If any derived constant deviates by more than experimental uncertainty + propagated STF uncertainty, the unification extension is falsified. The core STF framework (Levels 0–2) survives such falsification.
