The Chronokinetic Particle Hierarchy: Quantizing Rest-Mass Energy as Internal Temporal Phase Expenditure, Metabolic Tempos, and Phase-Inertia Scaling Factors
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We synthesize macroscopic relativistic kinematics and microscale quantum mechanics under the unified Principle of Chronokinetic Conservation (). Expanding upon the invariant 4-velocity budget where spatial propagation velocity () and internal temporal processing rate () represent orthogonal allocations of the invariant ceiling (), we re-evaluate rest-mass energy () not as an isolated scalar property, but as the operational energy required to sustain 100% internal temporal phase evolution (). By quantifying this internal phase cycle in discrete coordinate Planck ticks (), we establish a rigorous quantitative Chronokinetic Particle Hierarchy. We demonstrate that a subatomic particle's Planck-second cycle count () acts as its fundamental metabolic heartbeat, directly determining its spatial footprint (Compton wavelength), thermal vulnerability, decay stability, and a phase-inertia scaling factor that governs acceleration dynamics and temporal rate modulation. Furthermore, we map the continuum of this hierarchy to establish precise theoretical target windows for undiscovered or hypothetical phase states (such as sterile neutrinos and warm dark matter candidates) along a rigid inverse-linear logarithmic slope.
