Free Fall and the Contraction of Space in GMWT
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: Two test bodies released at the same point with the same initial velocity follow the same trajectory in a vacuum. How can Earth’s mass determine their acceleration when their own masses cancel from the calculation? Gravitation–Matter–Wave Theory (GMWT) distinguishes the matter that emits waves from the matter that responds to the field. The theory assigns both energy and a geometric component to protonic waves. This explanatory article focuses on free fall and the spatial contraction mechanism proposed by GMWT, using two markers to clarify the physical meaning of a temporary shortening. The construction identifies the assumptions that connect a single wave to a collective effect[1–4].
