Abstract:
Herein is a summary of the results we obtained at all scales from our Universal Matter Architecture (abbreviated as UMA), whose development and the underpinning of the related ubiquitous transformations is to the credit of the first co-author. UMA is a foundational framework asserting that the mass, spatial size, period of time and internal energy of any quantum-bound system are intrinsically linked through a scaling principle. The present work, while bringing in new elements of systematization and making new predictions, summarizes our past work on UMA, and demonstrates that the said scaffolding successfully classifies entitites across scales − from nuclear decays and molecular vibrations to cosmological acceleration − providing a unified, quantum-mechanically consistent description without ad hoc parameters. In the case of, say, a vibrating diatomic molecule, the mass of concern happens to be (µ0me)1/2, with µ0 being the reduced mass of the atoms making up the molecule and me being the electron mass. The said motion gets structured in a space measuring the average distance between the atoms making up the diatomic molecule. The period of time points to the vibrational periodicity of the molecule. The whole motion takes place on a given energy basis and, for the case at hand, this is the electronic energy delineated by the electrons that form the molecular bond. Be that as it may, mass, spatial size, period of time, and energy to be associated with the internal dynamics of any quantum mechanical entity should, while already at rest and far away from any fields, be interrelated in a unique way insofar as satisfying the requirements of the Special Theory of Relativity (STR) if the entity were brought to a uniform translational motion, or those of Quantal Theory of Gravity (QTG) (Annals of Physics, Volume 454, 2023, 169346) if the given entity were embedded in gravity, or in any field it can interact with. Wide-ranging outcomes of the UMA framework at different levels – i.e., nuclei, atoms, molecules, gases – are recapitulated, with particular emphasis on our discretization of the second law of thermodynamics. UMA furthermore allowed us over a decade ago to predict the cosmic acceleration, quantitatively, which is extraordinarily endorsed by recent data from DESI and Planck Collaborations, and JWST.
Biography:
Prof. Tolga Yarman is a graduate from Institut National des Sciences Appliquees de Lyon (France) in Energy Engineering, with a degree equivalent to B.Sc. and M.Sc. (1967) Institute of Nuclear Energy at Istanbul Technical University (ITU, Turkey), with a degree equivalent to M.Sc (1968); and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT, United States) with a Ph.D. Degree in Nuclear Science & Engineering (1972). Worked at the Nuclear Engineering Department of Cekmece Nuclear Research and Training Center (Istanbul) between the periods 1972-73 and 1975-77. Became faculty member at the ITU Institute of Nuclear Energy as Associate Professor in 1977, and as Professor in 1982. Appointed as Dean to the Graduate School of Sciences of Anadolu University (Eskisehir) in 1983. Enrolled as a Visiting Professor in the Engineering & Applied Science Faculty of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech, USA) in 1984. Was a member of the Nuclear Regulatory Committee (1975-1982) and the Advisory Board (1978-1982) of the Turkish Atomic Energy Commission (TAEK, Ankara). Gave invited lectures atla Faculte des Sciences de l' Université Libre de Bruxelles (Belgium). Has taught several courses in Energy Engineering, Nuclear Engineering,Nuclear Sciences, Thermodynamics, Fundamentals of Physics, Quantum Mechanics, and Atomistic & Physical Chemistry at the ITU Department of Chemical Engineering, besides the Institute for Nuclear Energy of Middle East Technical University (ODTU/METU), as well as Bogazici University, Anadolu University, Istanbul University, Isik University and Galatasaray University. He moreover delivered advanced courses at the Armed Forces Academy (Istanbul) on Nuclear Arms Race, Defense Industry, Advanced & Critical Technologies and Technology Transfer. Is author or co-author of several publications in national and international journals, as well as numerous invited papers presented at national and international meetings. His academic life-time approach on bridging the end results of the General Theory of Relativity with Quantum Mechanics, thusly bridging the atomistic world and the celestial world, that he developed further with the participation of his colleagues through articles he published along this line in prestigious journals, continue to attract growing attention from the world scientific community. Is also author of numerous books on Energy, Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Reactor Theory, relativity, Quantum Mechanics, along with Nuclear Arms Race and Defense Strategies, as well as a paperback on universal ethics. Currently enrolled as a faculty member in the Department of Energy Systems Engineering of Istanbul Okan University (Turkey).
