Exploratory Note on Weak-Decay-Like Topological Fracture in Concentric Shell Theory (CST)
This exploratory note investigates whether a non-linear quantum vacuum, governed by Concentric Shell Theory (CST), can support metastable mass-like attractors and spontaneous geometric transitions. Using Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) 1D simulations of an asymmetric Sine-Gordon field, higher-generation particles are represented, in the toy model, as highly compressed, unstable oscillons. Results suggest that these topologies can exceed the elastic limit of the spatial tensor, undergoing a structural fracture. The system relaxes toward the nearest stable topological attractor, dissipating excess energy as a neutral, weakly interacting radiation channel. While this toy model does not replace the full electroweak sector of the Standard Model, it proposes a qualitative geometric analogue for weak-decay phenomenology and neutrino-like emission.
