Reconsidering the Planck Area and Volume via Natural Geometry - v.20250328

Description

This paper reexamines the standard interpretation of the Planck area and volume, which are typically defined as the square and cube of the Planck length lP. We propose that if lP is interpreted as the diameter of a minimal disc or sphere in space, then the corresponding surface and volume should be calculated using the natural geometric formulas for area and volume of a circle and a sphere. Specifically, the Planck surface should be defined as (pi/4)* lP^2, and the Planck volume as (pi/6)* lP^3. This reinterpretation ensures a more accurate alignment with the geometry of physical space.
