A binder of Phil's physics notes, with a table of contents dated 9.20.08 saying most items are quite old. Sections cover mechanics (tides, Hamiltonian basics, Goldstein notes of Nov 1977, car torque and acceleration, thermal loss in houses), quantum mechanics, special relativity (Thomas precession), and particle physics (PCAC, Goldberger-Treiman, g-2). It includes the 1981 Am. J. Phys. paper on the physics of sprinting by Igor Alexandrov and Phil Lucht. Many pages are handwritten and the OCR is badly garbled.

Pd 1Introductiona
s
Itiscommonly observed that under theinfluence ofaflow oftraffic, dirt
oads develop regular corrugations oflongitudinal “pitch,” orwavelength, .
between 0.5and1m,andamplitude upto50mm [1].Atfirstglance such an *
instability oftheroad surface might seem counterintuitive, asonemight guess
that aflow oftraffic would exert downward forces onthesurface which tend to
smooth and compact theroad bed, thereby suppressing pattern development
rather than promoting it.Yet irregular, rough roads donot infact. heal
themselves, but instead become progressively rougher and more corrugated
under aflow ofcars. Similar phenomena also oceur, though sometimes on
different length andtime scales, onpaved roads, onrailroad rails [2],and
| |
ontherollers used tocalendar paper [3].‘The purpose ofthis paper isto
investigate thisphenomenon using asimple, tractable physical model,» .3~
‘Anearly attempt atexplaining road corrugation isduetoRelton (4],- who proposed that theunderlying instability mechanism isa“relaxation
oscillation,” caused essentially bystick-slip dynamics. According tothis,
view, amoving wheel pushes grains ahead ofit.The grains pileupinfront
“ ofthe wheel and form aheap. When the heap grows large enough, the
wheel sticks momentarily, andthen slips, running over theheap andleaving
itbehind asaridge. Foragiven uniform speed, thisstick-slip process will
befairly periodic, andsowillgenerate equidistant ridges. ,
Adifferent picture wasprovided byMather [2],whoargued thattheorigin ‘7
oftheroad instability isthebouncing motion ofthewheel, caused byrandom
irregularities ontheground. When thebouncing occurs, thecarisprojected
upward along acertain angle andisairborne forabrief time. When itthen
strikes theground, thecarcreates acrater andthemotion then repeats ‘
itself. According tothis picture, itisnot thepiling upofgrains ahead of .
thevehicle that isresponsible fortheinstability, buttheimpact stress ofthe
vehicle ontheground. ‘The wavelength oftheresulting corrugations will be
e determined bythecompetition betweenthetypicaldistance thecarfliesover theground and thesize ofthecrater generated bytheimpact stress, which
should inturn depend onthehardness oftheground and therelaxation time
oftheejected grains. Mather’s picture issimilar toother surface instabilities
involving granular materials, inparticular theripple patterns inwind blown _
sand [5,6,7,8],where ejected grains arecarried away bythewind and
land inaplace farfrom theejection point. Insuch anonlocal model, what
setsthewavelength oftheripple istheratio ofthefluxofthegrains tothe
° appropriately scaled saltation length, i.e.,thedistance thatanejected grain
iscarried bythewind.
‘The model wepresent inthis paper builds onMather’s picture, butwe
ignore anynonlocal transport ofgrains along theroad, andweassume that,
‘the cars, and more specifically their wheels, generally donot lose contact. ‘with thexoad. Instead, wemodel thecars simply asmasses attached to
domped springs. Weassume that thedownward contact forces exerted on
theroad bythewheels causes apermanent downward deflection oftheroad
surface, byeither erosion orplastic deformation. Ineither case wemodel the
effect ofthe contact force onthe road asasimple proportionality between

Weexpect that thesoftness parameter, and also thediffusion coefficient ifit

cffoct, narrowing theparameter range inwhich corrugations occur
Since wearemodeling thecars, which inreality arecomplicated mechan-
icalsystems, bysimple damped harmonic oscillators, thequestion quickly
arises astowhat. theappropriate natural frequency might be. Given the
observed pitch ofroad corrugations of0.5to1m,andthepresumed speeds

that therelevant mode may bethat ofthewheel attached tothesuspension. .
Alternatively. theimportant oscillation may beanelastic deformation ofthe’
wheel itself [9].‘This could account foranobserved difference inthepitch of+ corrugations produced byhaxdandsofttires[1].

small amplitudes, and then integrate theequations onaninterval oflength
2n/k with periodic boundary conditions. Wethemonitor theamplitudes
and phase velocities ofHand Zostime passes. The logarithmic derivative
oftheamplitudes with respect totime gives theinstantaneous exponential
growth rate o(t).
For thenon-constant acases weusethesimple ansatz

Thus thegrowth rate ofthecorrugation amplitude becomes small atlong
times inthismodel, butthecorrugation does notreach atrue steady state.
Itisclearly ofinterest todetermine whether restabilized steady states
exist. However, such states would depend onahost ofnonlinear effects
which areomitted inthemodel embodied inEqns. (4)and (5). While we
donotbelieve ourmodel aspresented iscapable ofpredicting steady states,
wehave observed aremarkable feature insome ofour numerical calculations.
‘Wehave investigated cases inwhich aand Aareconstants. ‘These cases

Such adetachment infact does occur inreal situations, and has been
termed_“bouncing” {9].Inalaboratory experiment involving tworotating
disks that areincontact with each other under static compression, thetwo
disks lose contact and bounce against each other when theamplitude ofthe
corrugation along theperimeter ofthedisks exceeds about 1/3thestatic
compression. Inthecase ofacarmoving onacorrugated surface, such
bouncing will kick thecarinto theair, but thecarwill quickly land ina
different place, amechanisin suggested byMather [2]. Such abouncing
motion should involve alocal flux ofthe cars and asaltation function that
relates thelanding position tothestart-off position, asinthecase ofwind-
blown sand {5,6,7].Wenote thatsuch anonlocal behavior would bedifficult.

bythelinear stability analysis intheabsence ofsuch aforce removal, and
that thisreduction ingrowth ratemay besufficient togenerate steady states

thevelocity curve forthesmallest aused (0.0040). The step fimction inthe
compactivity hasforced thephase velocities to“collapse” sothat they seem
toliealong ornear asingle curve inthe k—cplane. Examination ofthe
quasi-steady state velocities onafiner scale, asshown inFig. 8b,indicates
apersistence ofthekind ofvariation ofphase velocity with softness wehavetypically soen(thatis,thesoftertheroad,orequivalently thelargerais,the
greater thephase velocity, allother things being equal), though thisvariation
exists onamuch finer scale inthesteady state case than inthecase inwhich
thestep function isnotinvoked.
Even though wehave identified interesting steady state behavior inthe
solution ofthedifferential equations inthis limiting case ofabeing constant,
wemust reiterate that setting atoaconstant iscertainly unphysical, and
that many nonlinear effects have been omitted from ourmodel equations,
Moreover, our model does not account carefully forwhat happens when con-
tact with the road and cars islost; itmerely turns offthe coupling between,
cars androad intheequation ofmotion forH(,2), andfurthermore as- .

sumes theevolution ofZ(2,t) remains well described byEq. (4).Thus we
cannot expect that ournonlinear calculations willspeak tothebehavior of
real roads. Nonetheless, wefind itremarkable that simply setting a=0
when 1+H(z.) —Z(2,t) isnegative seems tocontain thegrowth ofthe
unstable modes.
5 Conclusions and Prospects
Inthis work, wehave explored theorigin ofthecorrugation instability of
dirt roads subjected toaconstant flux ofcars. Wehave presented asimple
phenomenological model fortheevolution oftheroad surface and carried
outalinear stability analysis touncover thegross features oftheinstability.
{From ourapproximate stability analysis and itsnumerical verification, we
find that thedynamical processes ofdiffusion andcompression inaroad bed
aresufficient togenerate instabilities that, cangiverisetopattern formation.
Small-amplitude corrugations ontheroad surface grow when thediffusion
parameter A/c and thehardening parameter 8/a liebelow thestability
boundary(fortheappropriate dampingcoefficientI’forthecars)shownin 6 Figure 3.From thedefinitions (6)ofaand Ainterms oftheoriginal,
dimensional softness anddiffusion coefficients a(H) andD(H), weseethat
thedimensionless combination A/a’is inversely proportional tothesquare of
Uz,thehorizontal speed ofthecars across theroad. Thus wefind that there
isacritical carspeed above which theflatroad surface isunstable. Also,
since a(/) isproportional tothefluxofcars, there isacritical flux forany
given speed, above which theflatroad isunstable. Both diffusive relaxation
and hardening ofthesurface arestabilizing effects. The wave number ofthe
most rapidly growing mode isgiven implicitly indimensionless terms by(17),
which isplotted inFig. 4.
Our model isclearly schematic; aquantitative theory ofroad corrugations
would need toincorporate anumiber ofeffects weleftout:ofourcalculations.
Wehave notattempted toaccount, forinstance, forthegeometric distinction
between Gh/Gt and thenormal velocity oftheroad surface asitcompacts,
norforthefact that theforce exerted byamoving caronacorrugated road
surface isnot purely vertical. For these reasons alone wehave notcarried
outany nonlinear analysis onourmodel ~themodel isexplicitly notvalid
beyond linear order intheamplitude oftheincipient corrugation. Wehave
also ignored alldetails ofthephysical processes bywhich theroad compacts,
15
50itisnotclear how well onrphenomenological picture ofcompaction being
proportional toapplied vertical force orimpulse candescribe thedynainics
ofareal road, Our model forthe cars isthe simplest possible, neglecting
themultiplicity ofoscillation modes ofreal cars and theHertzian nature
ofthecontact force between thetires and theroad. Inparticular, thefact
that realvehicles have twoormore pairoftires separated byfixed distances
may introduce anew, relevant length scale into theproblem. Finally, a
quantitative theory would have toincorporate distributions ofvehicle sizes,
weights, oscillation frequencies, speeds, andthelike,
Despite thefact that most: nonlinear effects areomitted from ourmodel,
wefind particularly interesting themunerical result that simply setting the
contact force tozero when theequations would make itnegative canlead to
anapparently steady state. Atleast this results inadrastic slowing ofthe
dynamias once acertain road configuration hasbeen established. Continuing
work will focus ondetermining theselection mechanism ofsuch ‘frozen’
states,andtheirresponsetolocalperturbations. /

Istarted into this subject bylooking atthe Utah handbook and also atDave
Andrews computer program. The first thing you learn isthe definition of"R" :

Insulating materials are rated bytheir Rvalue. “For example, awindow is“approximately
Rel" while 3.5-inches ofbatting isR=11. You quickly learn that books and technical
materials are inSIunits, soyou have another similar equation,

Inthe case that the thermal resistance iscaused simply bythe conduction
through anon-convecting substance, you can relate Rtothe thermal conductivity k

as follows: ™

For example, consider the 3.5" batting asifitwere just air. Then you can
compute asfollows:

Wecompute 18,buttheactual value is11.Presumably becuase thebatting contains solid
material which conducts much better than air, airishumid, etcetc. Ball park OK.

Ifthis were the actual resistance of window, you would beinreal trouble. Lucklly
the main resistance comes from the convection layers oneach side ofthe glass, in
particular onthemorecontrolled inside layer. (Handbook waysRabout 1forwindow...)
Convection Layers .
According tothe quoted equations ofO'Callahans book, here are the equations for
theeffective Rvalue (inmeters, K,watt units) ofavertical convection layer:
Ly). as is R=(BF) fomiar funichn ckOT) =6

= g(Ly R=.6Gz)> dwlosteat
Thefirstthingyounoticeisthattheresistance decreases asthetemperature difference e increases! (Totally unlike conduction where R=indep oftemperature roughly). Luckily
the power isaweak one. For 65Finside and 25F outside, you have dT=40F =25¢.
Aso windows are about Imhigh (this isL). Thus, folow isturbulent which means
slightly lower R.For25getdT**1/3 =2.9, for100get2.0socall it2.5, no3.0.
Thus, yougetR=.6/3 =.2SIunits forasingle layer. InBritish units multiply
by5.27 toget R=1,asclaimed! So,with aOF degree difference, you getRel for
asingle window. You should regard this asresisteance between isothermal inside
window surface and the bulk air temp ofthe room.

‘The convection layer isperhaps only 1cmthick. Wehave assumed natural convection.
Ifsomething actstomakethisnotso,eg,aheatventblowsdirectly onaglass e window, you have forced convection and resistance decreases, perhaps alot! One
assumes that there isawindy exterior soyou cannot assume alayer onthe outside
ofthe window. Nevertheless lets compute it:
Convection layer oneach side ofwindow. Iftotal temp diff is40F, then only 20F
drop ineach convection layer, sodT=12C for each layer. This gives R=.26 rather
than .20 for each layer, sototal isR=.52 and R=2.5 inBritish units. You have
more than doubled Rbyhaving aIpyer oneach side. Unfortunately you cannot really
control the external layer due towind.
Storm window. (wide) Lets assume that storm window isthick enough that youhave
“bulk inbetween soyou can treat asseries stuff:
Ee aefi) Iseiy=?©
Now you have not one but three surface convection layers and abulk still air layer as
well. Ifthe central area isonly afew inches, you may not have any “still air" in
there but rather asingle cell asshown inred for convection. Inthis case you cannot
really include acentral bulk air insulator. Solets assume that isthe case. Then
roughly youget8Cacross each layer which means R=.3foreach layer soR=0.9 for
total system which means R=5roughly for the combined storm window. Ifthere are
large leaks where air can flow from the room into the air space, then you are really
back tothe single window again, and the second layer has hoeffect, ie, both sides
are atthe same temperature. Thus Ithink itisimportant toseal storm layers.
Curtains: really the same asthe storm window analysis except you have tomake sure
nogaps attop and bottom and air cannot flow through them! Otherwise much less effect.
(We have not yet done radiative effects).

®AirGapwindows: letsassumegapissosmallthatconvection cannotoccurinside
the window. Assume a0.25" gap ofair. Air insulates about 40times better than
glass (seeKvalues), sowewould getR=1.3from thegap. (British). Addtothis
R=1.3forroomside convection layer sothat R=2.6British forwuch awindow,
ascompared to1.0for single window. Iamnot sure what commercial double glass
airgaps are. Ifitisonly 1/8th inch gap, then yougetR=2.0fordouble glass.
This agrees with Utah book and Andrews program, more orless.

Ihave been thinking about glass fireplace doors asa"fix" for damper leakage.
lets try tomake quantitatice cost analysis ofdoing this. Weknow that our
cold months therms useisabout 7therms/day. Roughly atherm costs $20/month.
Insummer, youuseabout 1therm/month forhotwater andgasdryer use, that is
why summer bill isabout $20/month. Inwinéer this rises to$140/month inthe
woxst few moths. Lets think only about these months.
The entire house leaks 7therms/day onone ofthese months. IfIwere
toleave thedamper open allthe time, andifdowndraft isabout 10cm/sec (move
your finger toseethat this isreasonable) or4inch/sec, andifdamper is
100square inches area, then you would lose about 1/3therm/day inthis way.
That isfully one third the complete loss through the ceiling, orfloor. That
represents anadded $7/month onwinter bill. Even inthis case, you would have
togoalot ofyears topay back a$1000 glass screen.
With the damper closed, yes there isleakage. Ihave eyeballed itnow. Itis
roughly the area shown onright edge ofthis page, its intwo pieces along one
edge ofthe damper. Icall it1/4" by12"=3square inches. This is100times
enller than when damper i6open! Thus, loss ismaybe 7¢/month. Truly this
issomething weneed not worry about. Yes, there will beaslight draft. Candle
shows how draft is mich more when damper is open.
General conments about heat loss of457 house 1.24.87
@ First,thebigpicture. Backgroua ‘gas‘tse forhotwateranddryerseems tobeabout'l therm) day.Thisis100,000 BTU/day. Thisgasusescosteabout.$20
per month. Nearly all ofthis ishot water use, mainly for showers. Dryer is
25000 BTUgason,soonehour/week at15000 BTUmeans 15,000 BTU/week or1/50 therm
day, completely negligeable. Hot water heater holds 40gallons and recovers at33.6gecntons/hour ‘for100Fandfiresat40000BTU,soyoumightsayittakes50000 BTU toheat up40gallons. Iwould guess than myshowers almost use the
whole tank, somaybe 1shower =0.4 therm. The rest iedishes and cleaning and
other hot water use, laundry, dishwasher, etc. All inall, Iprobably use about
1therm/month hotwater +gasdrier andthis gives abill of$20/month or
$21,0/year.
Now, total gasbill isabout $700/year. Youmayconclude that theheating
bill istherefor about $460/year. Roughly the heating season isNov thru April
or6months. Average monthly heating bill istherefore $77.
Consider that $460/year heating bill. Wethink weknow how that heat "leeks"
outofthehouse. House isabox. Top=15%, floor =15%, walls =35%including
draped windows except IRandK,15%thru front LRglass, and 10%thru kitchen
glass.
Crude estimate: ifyou were toreplace entire IRglass, you would raise
Rfrom 1to2,andheat loss would becutfrom 15%to7%,saving about $35/year.
However, cutthis inhalf because Ihave plastic on2/3ofthis glass andcurtainuse,80maybesaveabout$i5/year.probablyeachwindowis$200,ortotalwall ewould be$2000 including sliding glass door. Pay back time isthen about 133 years!
Room would bealittle warmer, but Ijust can't see the economy ofdoing this!
Much ofthe cost isofcourse labor toinstall those new windows. Its like factory
airversts installed airinacar. Itmight beworth doing inanew house, but
not asaretrofit. Ifyou want itwarner inthere, just upthe heat.
Mytopthree plastic sheets probably save 5%oftotal geating bill or$23/year,
0itdoes pay for itself.
Ithink this 100 year payback time istypical for awindow:analysis. Goodman
said $200 forabig window installéd, and Ithink you only save $5/year atmost,
socall it40year payback, not worth it.
The fireplace doesnt even register! With damper closed, Ifigured 7¢loss in
worst winter month. Definitely glass $1000 deal there not worth itfrom that point
ofview. While fire isactually burning, there can beadifference, but not really
much.
SoOKhereistheconclusion. Youhaveinherited anenergy non-efficient house. Walls are not very good, nor isceiling, nor are windows. The cost ofreally upgrading
the whole thing isprobably onthe. order of$5000-$10000. You might save $230
per year, for pay back of20-40 years. Iwould rather some other owner worried
about this and not me. Jwill just pass iton. Probably cheapest thing you could
doisdouble attic insulation. This would cut maybe 7%or$35 orr annual bill and
would cost maybe $300, so7year payback. Even that ismarginal. Morover, heating
e costsarenowdropping. ~“ ?fasticundally)<2|

4.Forair, 1mole =26grams (nitrogen)

Thus,R=.337BTU/m/deg and GC,=12Bru/a?/deg

Suppose inonehours timeIwanttocoolthisroom10°F. Thiswould require 350BTU/hr.
Example:Supposeworldwereat90°Fandmyofficewerecooledto70°F.Ifcobler @ sere turned off, Ibetroom would rise to75°F in5-10minutes. Suppose 5minutes.
‘Then ineffect heat in-flow rate is5°in1/12 hour or60°F/hour. Toexhaust this
heat flow would therefore require 2100 BTU/hor.
Cost estimate: tocool myoffice might take 2000 BTU/hor typically, sothis is
2500watt machine running half time which is4kwheach hour. At10hps/day that

Soforanoffice, aT=15°K andyoucould get300/15 =20=F. Butthat isonly

6 Messiah andthemeaning ofbrasandkets.1.More than once Ihave been ledback toQMandthequestion: what isaket,
- what isabra, what isamatrix element. This time Iwas trying toprove
the Wigner Eckart Theorem and came tothe conclusion that Idid not know
what Iwas doing. Ithink Messiah understands this stuff.
2.According toMessiah, page 246, aket isone ofthose abstract vectors
which span the Hilbert space. The space defined bythese kets isalinear
vector space over C,the complex numbers. This space has additional hot-
shot niceness properties which make itaHilbert Space. Alinear operator
takes any ket into some other ket. Asyet, these aspace has noscalar
product, nometric, nonorm, nonothin.
Abra isdefined tobeadifferent kind ofvector. Abra isafunction
whose argument isone ofthekets. Itissupposed tobealinear function.
Bach linear function you can think ofdefines abra. Any linear combination
ofsuch functions isalso alinear function, hence, abre. Thus, the
brasspanalinearvectorspaceoffunctions calledthedualspace.Note -@_that wecan speak ofafunction asdistinct from its value atsome point
(ie, onsome ket.) These bras are supposed tomap the kets into C.
Next, weare tosuppose that toeach ket there corresponds abra in
thedualspace suchthatthisbraofthatketisapositive realnumber.
This number is called the norm of the ket.
This correspondence between bra and ket issupposed tobeantilinear:
COeewaagale oA.abakSe eamreprnding" bra.
_ (= aly+ bl => Qa Sdil+ Vel
Note that ifyou defined aset ofkets asanorthonormal basis (in the
abstract), the above supposition would lead you tothe vector interp. for
"ss the“ket, and‘the transpose star forthe bra. Also, the above guarantees that
. the norm will bereal and positive. Finally, itguarartes that. the scalar
product will have the star reversal property.

You couldd prove rigorously that this new bra sodefined isanew linear

page 638 Messiah discusses antilinear operators, inwhich case the parenthesis
_does make adifference, but not here.
4. Inpassing, webhiould have itclear that complex conjugation isonly intro-
duced when you write the corresponding bra toaket. You donot get ithere:
GA =_2(AW) KL(eA) =&(<x\A)
5.What isthehermitiean conjugate ofanoperator A.?Consider thebra (a/A.
Since this isafter all abra, itmust have aconjugate ket. Wecan hopefully
obtain this conjugate ketbyoperating on/a)with some linear operator,
since conjugation ofket tobra orbra toket isantilinear. This linear

ePOAC: Goldberger Trieman Relation
This business isfairly complicated and there are leads ofcenventiens tethrew
you off what you're doing, The basic idea isthis:
1)weknew the width efthe weak pion decay. Wealso knew that the matrix element
ofthe hadrenic axial weak current between the single pion state and the
vacuum has avery simple form involving aconstant, the pion decay constant.
2)ifwemake theassumption that dyAY =¢pi, then itiseasytoshow that
the constant ¢iethe pion decay constant. Netice that this constant isdefined
differently beCommins and Adler.
3)Now consider the NNPI vertex for anoff shell pion. From the usual reductien
formulas wecan write the Smabrix element interms ofthe pion field sand-
wiched between the nand pstates. But wealso know this same matrix element
from lowest order field theory interms ofthe pion coupling constant gp.
Again, amost general form argument isused here.
:4) 4)NowusePCAC inthis matrix element andusethemest general form again to
bring inthe form factors gAand gP. Then weget afancy relatien relating
ry BA,aP,&rsfpiyandsomemasses. . 5)finally, you leok atq=0and get almost the GTR. The last step istoassume
asmoothness inthebehavier ofg,near small q®.This gives therelation.

Cosmological Hilbert Space

Abstract
AFockspaceof‘cosmological preons’—quantum-theoretic universe
constituents—associates toa‘Milne spacetime’ based ontheLorentz group andto
Gelfand-Naimark unitarygrouprepresentations. Lorentzinvariance ofMilne-universe e ‘age’accommodates ‘totalrelativity’. Two‘extra’dimensions ofthe 6-dimensional spaceoccupied bypreonsatcertainexceptional agesofthe universe define self-adjoint single-
preon operators thatinclude acanonically-conjugate pairrepresenting preon energy and
local time. Global spacetime divides into‘slices’ offixed macroscopic width inage,with
‘cosmological rays’ defined onslice boundaries. Self-adjoint-operator expectations at
such aboundary prescribe throughout thesubsequent slice anon-fluctuating ‘mundane
reality’—current densities ofconserved electric charge andenergy-momentum together
with electromagnetic andgravitational potentials, Therayatthelower boundary ofaslice
ispropagated totheupper boundary bycosmological branched Feynman paths across the
slice thatcarry (divergence-free) potential-depending action. Amacroscopically-stable
positive-energy single-preon wave function identifies either with aStandard-Model
elementary particle orwith agraviton. (Unstable negative-energy preon wave functions
remain tobeinterpreted.) Special relativity--Poincaré invariance~although inexact, is
accurate forlow-density regions oftheuniverse atspacetime scales which arefarbelow
that ofHubble and farabove that ofPlanck.

Introduction|r) Nonexistence ofunitary finite-dimensional Lorentz-group representations hasongbeensupposed topreclude, fordynamically-changing numbers ofparticles, aDirac-typequantum theory thatrepresents individual-particle properties such aslocation,
momentum andspinbyself-adjoint operators onariggedHilbertspace.‘TheStandard
Model, which employs asfoundation notparticles butquantum fields associated tofinite-
dimensional Lorentz-group representations andwhichrepresents actionbyill-defined | localfield-product operators withperturbative renormalization procedures tomanage
consequent divergences, hasfailed toaccommodate gravity. Problematic, furthermore, is
theStandard-Model description ofbound states (‘condensed matter’), perturbation theory
being unsuited tomacroscopically-stationary composite wave functions.
Thediscrete quantum cosmology (DQC) ofReference (2)andthepresent paper
introduces a‘cosmological-preon’ Fockspaceviaunitary (infinite-dimensional) 4representations ofthecomplex Lorentz-group. Anycosmological preon (henceforth oe
throughout thispapersimply called‘preon’) is‘lightlike’—in thesenseofhaving se
velocity candapolarization transverse tovelocity direction—and carries momentum,
angular momentum andenergy. However, only very-special preon wave functions
exhibit,throughexpectations ofself-adjoint operators, therelation between energy,
momentum, spinandspacetime location thatcharacterizes ‘ordinary matter’. ADQCFock-space ray,representing theentireuniverse, comprises sumsofproducts ofpreonWavefunctions whosedisertequantum numbers allow certain macroscopically-stable
positive-energy preon states tobeinterpreted aslepton, quark, weak boson, photon or
graviton.(Acosmological meaningisgivenbelowfortheadjective‘macroscopic’.) e Reference (2)specifies ‘creation-annihilation’ Feynman paths whose action includes
gravity aswellaselectromagnetism andweak-strong interaction.TheDQCFockspaceisbuiltfromPauli-symmetrized superpositions ofproducts
ofinvariantly-normed single-preon functions. Displayed inthispaper isasingle-preon
basis thatis‘6-labeled” bypreon energy, ‘momentum magnitude’, direction of
