Aetherions, preons, and the aether: A unified theory of the presently known

We propose that freed aetherial quanta become elementary particles named aetherions, and that the preons of the ABC Preon Model are constructed from the aetherions. We further propose that the aetherions have at least two components: One of unit-spin and another of half-integer spin. The unit-spin component and orbital angular momentum of the aetherions are proposed to be strongly coupled to the aether, and the resulting twisting of the solid aether leads to the force of preonic and nuclear binding. As a result of these proposals, all material particles are seen to consist of aetherions, and the nuclear, electromagnetic, and gravitational forces are all recognized as simple aetherial phenomena. This framework unifies all currently known physics by describing it in terms of aetherions and their interactions, bindings, displacements, and flows.
