Unified Field Theory in a Nutshell Elicit Dreams of a Final Theory

G. G. Nyambuya1 1National University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Applied Sciences, Department of Applied Physics, Bulawayo, Republic of Zimbabwe∗ (Dated: July 24, 2014) The present reading is part of our on-going attempt at the foremost endeavour of physics since man began to comprehend the heavens and the earth. We present a much more improved unified field theory of all the forces of Nature i.e. the gravitational, the electromagnetic, the weak and the strong nuclear forces. The proposed theory is a radical improvement of Professor Herman Weyl [1– 3]’s supposed failed attempt at a unified theory of gravitation and electromagnetism. As is the case with Professor Weyl’s theory, unit vectors in the resulting/proposed theory vary from one point to the next, albeit, in a manner such that they are compelled to yield tensorial affinities. In a separate reading [4], the Dirac equation is shown to emerge as part of the description of the these variable unit vectors. The fields – i.e., electromagnetic, weak and the strong – together with the gravitational force field are seen to be described by a four vector field Aµ, which forms part of the body of the variable unit vectors and hence the metric of spacetime. The resulting theory very strongly appears to be a logically consistent and coherent unification of classical and quantum physics and at the same time a grand unity of all the forces of Nature. Unlike most unification theories, the present proposal is unique in that it achieves unification on a four dimensional continuum of spacetime without the need for extra-dimensions.

All that has been the NWG one obtains tensorial affinities from the done in [16] is to decompose the general metric gµν in a conformal terms of the metric (¯gµν = %gµν ). In the manner that allows us to apply Professor Dirac [17, 18]’s next section, we will present an important idea that prescription at arriving at the Dirac equation. is vital to the present unification, namely that the Riemann metric gµν can be decomposed in such a man- ner that is now contains four and not ten free parameters. Professor Dirac [17, 18]’s original equation is ar- rived at from the Einstein momentum-energy equation µ ν 2 4 ηµν p p = m0c where ηµν is the usual Minkowski µ metric, (p , m0) are the four momentum and rest mass DECOMPOSITION OF THE METRIC TENSOR of the particle in question respectively and c is the usual speed of light in a vacuum. In curved spacetime, we know µ ν 2 4 In the present section we justify one of the major ideas very well that the equation ηµν p p = m0c is given by µ ν 2 4 of the present unified theory. This is the idea that the gµν p p = m0c where gµν is the general metric of a metric tensor can – logically, be decomposed in a manner curved spacetime. If a curved spacetime version of the that allows us to write down an equivalent Dirac equation Dirac equation is to be derived, it must be derived from µ ν 2 4 in curved spacetime. The resulting decomposed metric the fundamental equation gµν p p = m0c in the same is central to the final unified theory, it is so central that way the flat spacetime Dirac equation is derived from the µ ν 2 4 without it, one can not envisage obtaining the required fundamental equation ηµν p p = m0c .
