Guide to Donut Chain Theory

Donut Chain Theory (DCT) developed from a many-decade causal mechanistic effort to understand the foundational structure of space. It progressed into much more. DCT provides the ratio of the gravitational force to electromagnetic force between two electrons (ggee) based solely on the value of the electron coupling constant. Indirectly, this leads to the current value of G, the Gravitational Constant, from alpha of 50 years earlier.

It is important to understand that the DCT theoretical ggee ratio does not have G incorporated in any manner, direct or indirect.

• Evolution of Donut Chain Theory
Describes the steps taken to develop DCT. It also describes the strengths and weaknesses of various conclusions. Evolution of DCT (pdf)


• Theoretical ggee Calculation
Provides the calculation details for ggee. This is the heart of why one would believe DCT. Theoretical ggee Ratio (pdf)


• Baryon Foundational Structure
Shows a visually and causally useful dynamic structure for each baryon in the baryon octet. This Donut Chain Theory structure determines: strangeness, color, charge, isospin, spin, hypercharge and fractional quark charge. It also shows the path by which the structural changes from the major decay routes occur. Baryon Foundational Structure (pdf)


• Thursday Thoughts
Provides a "weekly thought" development of the logic that leads to DCT. Each weekly thought requires pondering to understand its meaning or significance. If you don't understand a thought, feel welcome to ask about its meaning. Thursday Thoughts
