TDFT Foundational Papers (2015–2025) Particle Physics and Dark Matter — Early Formulation
Authors/Creators
Description
This paper inaugurates Volume 2 of the Temporal–Density Framework (TDFT) series.
It reformulates the invariant triad in fully dimensionless form, revealing Newton’s constant $G$ as the SI projection of temporal stiffness rather than a fundamental coupling.
From this foundation arise new definitions of particle mass as contained temporal energy and a causal-locking origin for dark matter.
Volume 2 extends TDFT from gravitational–electromagnetic unification into the microscopic and cosmological domains, completing the dimensionless groundwork for a unified field theory.
A final Testability Outlook introduces empirical pathways—running of gauge stiffness, dark-matter coherence bias, scalar-field limits, and boundary-stress predictions—establishing TDFT as a fully testable alternative to the Standard Model of cosmology and particle physics.

Series information
Version 1.0.1 — Update Notes
Minor content revision of the original release (v1.0).
This update adds the Testability Outlook section and refined “Notes for Further Development,” completing the empirical roadmap of Volume 2.
The document now incorporates final structural polish and closing reflection, establishing Volume 2 as the definitive dimensionless formulation of the Temporal–Density Framework.
Scientific content and equations remain consistent with the original release; metadata and layout have been standardised for series continuity.
The canonical DOI for citation remains 10.5281/zenodo.17582953.
