PBT Papers

Pressure-Based Theory (PBT) — later developed into the Hybrid Push-Aether Theory — models the universe as an infinite pressure vessel with hierarchical particle fluxes, where forces emerge from push effects due to shadowing and aether distortions. It unifies gravity, electromagnetism, spin, and entanglement mechanically, without invoking dark matter or singularities.

These fifteen papers (numbered 1–12, 14, 15, and 16) are presented in reading order — each builds on the last. Paper 5 appears here in its later revised form (quantum spin, entanglement, and higher-spin integration together); the original, less-developed version of Paper 5 has been superseded. Paper 13 is deliberately not published here — it’s held back as a marked boundary between this series’ original development (Papers 1–13, primarily Grok-authored, later independently audited) and Paper 14 onward, built collaboratively and audited as written rather than after the fact. See Paper 14’s own Introduction for the full explanation.

See also the Reference Guide for a summary of each paper’s key equations, and the Published Papers page for the two parts of this work with permanent, citable external identifiers: the original PBT synthesis on OSF Preprints and ai.viXra.org, and a separate strong-field spin-precession constraint paper on Zenodo (2026-11-09). The reference guide predates Papers 14–15 and the numbering gap they introduced.
