Gravity as an Emergent Effect of Projected Radiation

  The preprint version is available on SSRN: Gravity as an Emergent Effect of Projected Radiation (August 08, 2026). http://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.7251340   Gravity as an Emergent Effect of Projected Radiation   Juliet Zhong Independent Researcher | London, United Kingdom | August 2026 ORCID: 0009-0006-5099-3671 Abstract This paper proposes that gravity is not a fundamental interaction but an emergent effect arising from the interaction between projected matter and a background radiation field within the SxD dimensional cascade. Drawing on a prior analysis of the matter-radiation classificatory inconsistency in modern physics, and on the mass-energy equivalence E = mc², it is argued that mass is condensed radiation and radiation is released mass. On this account, observable three-dimensional spacetime (S³D) is a structural projection from a six-dimensional primordial nucleus (S⁶D), and matter is a high-density condensation of the projected radiatio...

The Two Times of the Universe: Deriving the Radiation–Matter Dimensional Separation from Newton and Einstein

The preprint version is available on SSRN: The Two Times of the Universe (July 28, 2026). http://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.7197481   The Two Times of the Universe Deriving the Radiation–Matter Dimensional Separation  from Newton and Einstein     Juliet Zhong Independent Researcher | London, United Kingdom | July 2026 ORCID: 0009-0006-5099-3671   Abstract This paper derives the conclusion that the universe necessarily contains two ontologically distinct dimensional domains: a matter domain governed by relative time (τ > 0) and a radiation domain governed by absolute time (τ = 0). The derivation uses only two established sources: Newton's explicit textual distinction between absolute time and relative (clock) time in the Principia, and special relativity's own result that the proper time of light is identically zero while the proper time of all massive matter is strictly positive. The invariance of the speed of light, the axiom on which relativ...
