Evolution of the Periodic Table as We Know it?

Abstract

The inversion of the Periodic Table to accommodate spatial variation of atomic energy levels relative to the nucleus has subsequently been underwritten by Quantum Field Theory’s U(1) x SU(2) x SU(3) group symmetry and Clifford Algebra resulting in a one-to-one mapping between the Roberts-Janet Nuclear Periodic Table and the Quantum Mechanical Table. A coherent sketch of scientific commentary is attempted in the form of two cycles within the Roberts-Janet Table. Mechanisms of superposition, entanglement, tunnelling and decoherence abound but the pathways of causality remain elusive; whether testable as telescopes and artificial intelligence evolve. Mass number is no longer a fundamental property. It appears unique to each supernova explosion as the ratio of isotopes varies in the nth decimal place as radioactivity proceeds. Goodbye a unique Periodic Table. Hello a large number of Periodic Tables underwritten by the Roberts-Janet mechanism where mass number is merely a by-product. The first cycle reignites radioactivity by mergers between neutron stars and black holes - radioactivity having been extinguished temporarily in the ebb and flow of production of white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Nuclei with large mass numbers and low atomic numbers result; rapidly decaying to nuclei with large atomic numbers. By further decay elements familiar to the Periodic Table appear from higher atomic numbers. Various sizes of black hole production suggest a hierarchy of outcomes which not only produce a reignition of radioactivity but potential creations of other universes from explosions of larger and supermassive black holes as the Planck length is approached and energies increase to a scale giving rise to periods of inflation and condensation that predate the production of quarks. This implies universes can be superimposed on previous universes explaining why some supermassive black holes appear in subsequent universes nearer than current theoretical models. The second cycle indicates a path through abiogenesis, water and trace elements to form life ultimately to be extinguished by the Sun’s expansion thus merging with the first cycle’s production of stars.
