Tractatus de Originismo Relativo - Time, Boundary, Atomic Structure, and the Reordering of Measurable Reality

Abstract

This paper does not aim at compression but at ordering. Its purpose is not to present a final closed system, but to reorganize a sequence of conceptual developments, thought experiments, mathematical definitions, corrections, and bridge variables into a single generative-projective framework. Within this framework, measurable values are not treated as self-sufficient first terms, but as posterior surface-values through which deeper prior structures may be cautiously traced. On this basis, the paper reorders time, boundary, atomic structure, geometry, measurement, and cosmological description under the broader grammar of Relative Originism.

The first major task of the paper is to reopen the question of time. Atomic time is not treated as time itself, but as a standardized counting-form. From this starting point, time is reinterpreted as a matter of density and volume of experienced existence rather than as a merely linear axis. This leads to the hydrogen-electron thought experiment, in which the question is not what the smallest ultimate particle is, but what may count as a minimally capturable, minimally stable unit of existence within the presently accessible dimension of measurement and cognition. On that basis, the paper introduces the relative temporal ratio as a first comparative variable between outer standard time and inner experienced time, and develops a comparative framework using protium, deuterium, and tritium as structurally related but non-identical isotopic cases.

The second major task is to reopen the double-slit experiment. Rather than treating it as the already-given interference of an already-given wave in a neutral space, the paper interprets slit structure as a boundary-form and screen intensity as the surface-distribution of capture-density. Dark fringes are therefore not read as ontological zero, but as near-zero residual regions governed by non-capture grammar. On this basis, phase is repositioned as a posterior comparative value rather than a first ontological principle, and slit lifetime is introduced as the duration through which the same boundary-form remains effectively reproducible.

To connect these two axes, the paper adopts a modified instrumental use of a Smolin/LQG-inspired discretizing intuition without accepting geometry-first ontology. Minimal units are reinterpreted as capture-cells rather than ultimate blocks of reality, and this leads to a set of mathematical bridge-definitions including the minimal time-capturing unit, temporal event-volume, atomic spatial sum, spatial residue, temporal residue, and redistribution-time difference. These definitions are not presented as final physical laws, but as cautious bridge structures between measurable posterior expressions and deeper generative order.

The paper argues that the hydrogen framework and the double-slit framework are not separate theories but two surfaces of the same grammar: the former addresses inner temporal distribution, while the latter addresses outer boundary segmentation. This shared structure further permits a reintegration of atomic theory and cosmology. The nucleus is reinterpreted as a locally stabilized generative center, the element as a spatio-temporal-existential complex, and cosmology itself as a hypothetical ordering of posterior observables rather than a completed view from outside the world. In this sense, the difference between the atomic and the cosmological is treated not as an absolute ontological rupture, but as a difference of observational position and focal scale.

The paper finally maintains that its own developmental process must remain visible. Because its central concepts emerged through staged correction, reordering, and conceptual refinement, the path of formation is part of the theory rather than an expendable draft history. For that reason, the work presents itself not as a final doctrine, but as an open ordering. Its conclusion is therefore not closure, but a structured opening toward further comparison, formalization, and measurement.
