Part 0102 - Graviton Properties

ARGUMENT 0102-01

PRECEDENTS
  • CURRENT PARADIGM:     The principal properties of the 24 elementary fermions are mass, spin, and charge.
  • 0101-01:     That each type of elementary fermion consists of a minimum of two gravitons.
PARAMETERS
  • Consider that the graviton is the least substantial object that can currently be assumed to exist.
  • Consider that the graviton has no selfevident properties.
  • Consider that properties of the graviton can be inferred using profiling to extrapolate properties out of the elementary fermions.
  • Consider that mass is a property common to all 24 elementary fermions.
  • Consider that spin is a property common to all 24 elementary fermions.
  • Consider that rejectivity is a property common to all 24 elementary fermions.
  • Consider that charge is a property common to 18 of the 24 elementary fermions. 
REASONING
  • Because mass, spin, and rejectivity are properties common to all 24 elementary fermions, profiling allows the assumption that they are properties of the graviton.
  • Because charge is not a property common to all 24 elementary fermions, profiling does not allow the assumption that it is a property of the graviton.
  • Thus gravitons have mass, spin, and rejectivity and do not have charge.
CONCLUSION
  • That every graviton has these properties:   mass, spin, and rejectivity.


COMMENTARY:     REJECTIVITY

The Rejectivity Law is that:  one object cannot occupy a place in space and time already occupied by another object of the same type. The principle underlying the law is a simple one. If rejectivity is a property of an object (say, an elementary fermion) it will react when colliding with another. If rejectivity is not a property of the object, it will not react when colliding with another.

The Rejectivity Law is not found in the Current Paradigm but it should be because so many of the Paradigm's presently unresolved conundrums are immediately resolvable with its use. As things stand, the nearest the Current Paradigm has to the Rejectivity Law is the Pauli Exclusion Principle  but this is narrowly applied and has some way to go.

Slotting the Rejectivity Law into the Current Paradigm is easy enough but there must be doubt that it could happen quickly, not least because a substantial element of the physics community is devoted to working on hypothetical objects which cannot exist if the Rejectivity Law is applied. 

For more information on the place of the Pauli Exclusion Principle within the Malta Template, see Selfproof 0108.

COMMENTARY:     PROFILING

Profiling is a reasoning technique in which universal facets of the known are assumed to be facets of the appropriate unknown. It is a technique that has been formalised over the years and is now beneficially used in many disciplines and professions. It doesn't appear to be used in the rigorous sciences and certainly not under the name "profiling". Nevertheless examples of its use can be found. Mendeleev's Periodic Table is profiling in all but name. So is the Quark Model. Many lesser examples are there to be found. 



AUTHOR'S NOTE:

When this Argument was first constructed, it seemed correct to me that the graviton should have just three identified properties. Subsequently, I have realised that there are actually four or, perhaps, even five. This is because all 24 elementary fermions also have a vector measure - that is:  speed plus direction. Or more precisely:  all 24 elementary fermions have measures of speed and direction.

The omission makes little difference to the outcome of the Malta Template. Nevertheless, it irks me. When time becomes available, I will rewrite the argument and make the necessary amendments to Part 0104.
