The Axis Model Research Program


Can gauge structure be derived rather than postulated?


A peer-reviewed result (AIP Advances, 2026) shows that an SU(2) gauge connection emerges from internal geometric coherence, with a computable link between microscopic response and the Yang–Mills coupling.


This result is part of a broader multi-paper program developing a scalar-coherent effective framework for particle physics, gauge structure, and emergent gravity. It is realized within a BRST-consistent scalar-coherent effective field theory with renormalization-group control, anomaly consistency, and testable predictions.

The Axis Model organizes Standard Model particles and interactions through a constrained internal geometry, with gravity appearing as an environment-dependent emergent limit.

A Foundation for Gravity and the Standard Model 

The Standard Model and General Relativity are extraordinarily successful yet they rest on incompatible foundations.   The Axis Model addresses a narrower question: whether key gauge and gravitational structures can be organized within a single scalar-coherent effective framework that reduces to Standard Model and GR behavior in the appropriate limits.

The program develops a BRST-consistent effective field theory in which observable gauge and gravitational structures arise from scalar-coherent projection of internal degrees of freedom. Within scalar-coherent domains, the framework yields a one-loop Einstein–Hilbert term and a local effective gravitational coupling Geff(x). Across the stated EFT validity window, the construction is designed to respect standard quantum field theory requirements, including anomaly cancellation, renormalization consistency, and controlled matching at the ultraviolet threshold.

The Framework in Brief 

The Axis Model is developed as a modular effective program rather than a single unifying manuscript. Each paper addresses a specific sector—fermion structure, gauge construction and normalization, quantum consistency, or emergent gravity—within a shared scalar-coherent framework and an explicitly stated EFT window.

The unifying thread is structural rather than speculative: on coherent domains, observable gauge and gravitational structures and their normalization, matching, and response properties are fixed by constrained geometric and kernel interfaces, with the gauge connection set by projector geometry. The suite is designed so that individual results can be read, checked, and tested independently, while still fitting into a coherent overall structure.  

What follows is a guided map of the papers, their scope, and the computational artifacts supporting them.
