Appendix A: Electron spin-orbit coupling splitting
The electron spin-orbit coupling splitting is vigorously pursued within the study of quantum electrodynamics (QED). Its pinnacle of success is attributed to the description of the lamb shift when compared to the Dirac field theory (
Figure A1b). The lamb shift refines the value of the fine-structure constant,
α to about less than 1 part in a billion [
46] and it quantifies the gap between the fine structure of the hydrogen spectral lines. It offers a measure of the strength of the electron and its interaction with the electromagnetic field by the relationship [
34,
35],
In high-energy physics for protons-protons collisions at near lightspeed, a nondimensional system is used with the boundary,
= c = ℏ = 1, so Equation 20 is reduced to the form,
The
α then provides powers to the perturbative expansion of the anomalous dipole moment of the electron with respect to its
g-factor in the form,
The historical ambiguity towards establishing a firm path of calculating the
g-factor still remains today, while there is a level of general consensus to about 10 decimal points [
47]. But how such information gets translated to the physical world remains ambiguous, while the reciprocal of
α for the value of 137 has often left physicists quite mystified of how our universe is fine-tuned.
In this study, it is not one of its purpose to quantify
g-factor to a higher level of accuracy but to demonstrate how free parameters like
,
, ℏ,
and so forth can be intuitively related to proposed model as discussed so far. Likewise, diagonal coupling of rotating BOs and
would produce intrinsic properties of
or the spinor in units of ℏ (
Figure A1a) into Minkowski space-time (
Figure 1b). The transition from the Bohr model to hydrogen spectral lines and their fine structures defined by the lamb shift (
Figure A1b) are somewhat comparable to the degenerate states of BOs. Thus, at zero-point energy at position 0, energy absorption activates the BOs from
n = 1 to
n = 2 for the spin-orbit coupling of 2P orbital (e.g.,
Figure 7c(i),(ii)). The reduction of the Dirac fermion of four-component spinor field to spin ±1/2 states for the pair of light-cones is of time invariant to the helical property of the model (
Figure 3a).
At position 1 of Minkowski space-time (e.g.,
Figure 1b), the total angular momentum,
, provides the values,
and
for
p orbital at
n = 2,
l = 1 with respect to BOs in degeneracy. Similarly, the Clebsch−Gordon series for the total orbital angular moment,
and total spin,
are applicable to the BOs into
n-dimensions. For example, the magnitude [
29],
is assumed for triangulated geometry at positions 0, 2 and 3. The shift in position is dictated by Einsteinian gravity with respect to the arrow of time of a clock face (e.g.,
Figure 2). These relationships portray the dynamics of the MP model.

Appendix B: Application of Dirac field theory
In
Figure A1a,b, the applicability of Dirac field theory and hence, QED to the MP model is demonstrated. How this could actually accommodate the Dirac field theory is explored next. The theory is very well developed and is more complex with numerous literatures available. In here, certain aspects of the field theory [1,
2,
10,
11] are copied here in order to demonstrate their relevance to the transformation of the electron to Dirac fermion (e.g.,
Figure 3a,b) as shown in this study. Thus, the discussions that follows are generally referenced to both the figures and postulates of the conceptualized model as offered in the main text.
Dirac field. Lorentz transformation of the electron to the fermion field of spin ±1/2 is applicable to the MP model. These are denoted
ψ(
x) in 3D space and
ψ(
x,t) in both Euclidean and Minkowski space-times (
Figure 1a,b). The Dirac equation for the fermion field is given by,
where
are the gamma matrices related to the shifts in the electron position of time reversal due to gravity. The exponentials of the matrices,
are assigned to positions, 0, 1, 2 and 3 of BOs (
Postulate 2).
relates to arrow of time in asymmetry at position, 0 for a monopole field and
variables to Dirac matrices in 3D space. These are all incorporated into the famous Dirac equation,
where the lightspeed,
c acts on the coefficients A, B and C and transforms them to
and
. Alternatively, the exponentials of
are denoted
i, where
is off-diagonal Pauli matrices at
and
with respect to the pair of light-cones in Minkowski space-time (
Figure 1b). This is defined by,
and zero exponential,
to,
is applicable to intersections of the BOs along the electron path for the anticommutation relationship,
of the Lie algebra group (
Figure 1a). The matrices, 0 and 1 of Equation 25b is relatable polarization of the model.
Weyl spinor. The Weyl spinor of the pair of light-cones is applicable to the precessing MP field at the four positions, 0 to 3 of BOs (
Figure 1a). This is represented as,
and it correspond to spin up fermion, a spin down fermion, a spin up antifermion and a spin down antifermion in Hilbert space at 720° rotation comparable to Majorana fermions (e.g.,
Figure 1a). By relativistic transformation, observation is reduced to a bispinor,
where
are the Weyl spinors of chiral form and are irreducible within the model (
Figure 3a). Parity operation
x →
x’ = (
t, ‒
x) for qubit 1 and −1 along the vertical axis exchanges the left- and right-handed Weyl spinor (e.g.,
Figure 3a,b) in the process,
The Weyl spinors are converted to Dirac bispinor,
diagonally at positions 1 and 3 of BOs (
Figure 1b). Normalization of the two-component spinor,
= 1 ensues by the orthogonal relationship,
and
for the full rotation of the sphere (e.g.,
Figure 1a).
Lorentz transformation. The Hermitian,
for the Dirac fermion transiting at positions, 0, 1, 2 and 3 of BOs is not Lorentz invariant for measurement into 1D space. These states are in superposition but are deterministic at observations (
Postulate 3). Thus, by Lorentz transformation, Weyl spinor of a light-cone depicts the relationship,
Equation 29 relates to Minkowski space-time for the spinor provided by the BOs of inertia reference frame (
Figure 1b). The corresponding Lorentz scalar of the BOs is,
and is referenced to time axis of the MP field of a dipole moment in asymmetry. By identical calculation to Equation 29, the Weyl spinor becomes,
for the complete classical rotation of the sphere at 360°. Based on the model, it is difficult to distinguish both Weyl spinor and Majorana fermion from the Dirac spinor by relativistic transformation at constant lightspeed.
Quantized Hamiltonian. The 4-vector spinors of Dirac field,
(
x) offers a level of complexity to observations such as for the Dirac belt trick. Only two ansatzes to Equation 23 are adapted as follow,
These are Hermitian plane wave solutions and they form the basis for Fourier components in 3D space (e.g.,
Figure 7c(i),(ii)). Decomposition by Hamiltonian then assumes the relationships,
The coefficients
and
are ladder operators, which are applicable to the BOs into
n-dimensions along the orbital paths. These are for
u-type particles and similar process is accorded to
and
of
v-type particles (e.g.,
Figure 5). With unitarity sustained, Hilbert space of the model can expand or contract from external light interactions, where both types of particles are incorporated. The terms,
and
are Dirac spinors for the two spin states, ±1/2 and
and
as their antiparticles. The conjugate momentum is,
Equation 34 is assumed by the electron in orbit of 3D space against clockwise precession of the MP field of 4D space-time (
Figure 4). The generated oscillations of lagrangian mechanics and its Hamiltonian in 3D space is given by,
The quantity in the bracket is the Dirac Hamiltonian of one-particle quantum mechanics as provided in Equation 3. With
z-axis aligned to time axis in asymmetry for a monopole field of a hemisphere (
Figure 3a), the V-A currents are projected in either
x or
y directions in 3D space (e.g.,
Figure 7a and b) by the relationships,
where
α and
β denote the spinor components of the
. The
independent of time in 3D space obeys the uncertainty principle with respect to the electron’s position,
p and momentum,
q, as conjugate operators. Their commutation relationship obeys the relationship,
Equation 37 incorporates both matter and antimatter, where observation is of linear time (
Figure 7a–c(i),(ii)). Thus, a positive-frequency is represented by,
In this way, Dirac strings are constrained with the model and its transformation to orthogonal duality of E and B of linear time.
Further undertakings. The above interpretations demonstrate the compatibility of the model to incorporate relativistic transformation of the electron to a Dirac fermion. Other related themes that can perhaps be pursued in a similar manner include Fock space and Fermi-Dirac statistics, Bose-Einstein statistics, causality, Feynman propagator, charge conjugation, parity, charge-parity-time symmetry and so forth. In this case, the boundary posed by the model could justify the removal of infinities to conform to measurements during renormalization process by assuming unitarity (Postulate 2).
