New Paper: Predicting the Binding Energies of the 1s Nuclides with High Precision, Based on Baryons which are Yang-Mills Magnetic Monopoles

Dear Friends:

I wanted to let you all know that I just posted a new paper, which you can review at the link below:

http://vixra.org/abs/1212.0165

The abstract is as follows:

We employ the thesis that baryons are Yang-Mills magnetic monopoles to predict the binding energies of the alpha ⁴He nucleus to less than four parts in one million, of the ³He helion nucleus to less than four parts in 100,000, and of the ³H triton nucleus to less than seven parts in one million, all in AMU.  Of special import, we exactly relate the neutron–proton mass difference – which pervades all aspects of nuclear physics and beta decay – to a function of the up quark, down quark, and electron masses, which in turn enables us to predict the binding energy for the ²H deuteron nucleus most precisely of all, to just over 8 parts in ten million.  The thesis that Baryons are Yang-Mills magnetic monopoles thereby appears to have ample, indeed irrefutable empirical confirmation, establishes a basis for finally “decoding” the mass of known data regarding nuclear masses and binding energies, and may lay the foundation for technologically realizing the theoretical promise of nuclear fusion.

I have also submitted this for journal publication, and hope that this will become my second journal-published paper.  The first one as I have advised previously has already been accepted and will be released any day now.

I welcome your comments, as always.

Time to go party!  Happy new year to all!

Jay
