The Elastic Proton

This paper develops a geometric model of the proton in which its mass-energy is confined within a three-sphere, $S^3$. The model explores a set of geometric relationships that describe the proton as an elastic object. We find that the mass-energies of the lighter baryons follow this elastic structure.

Abstract

This paper develops a geometric model of the proton in which its mass-energy is confined within a three-sphere, $S^3$. The model explores a set of geometric relationships that describe the proton as an elastic object. We find that the mass-energies of the lighter baryons follow this elastic structure.
