Time Field Theory (VII): Derivation of the Fine-Structure Constant from Fundamental Conservation

Key Points

This research aims to derive the fine-structure constant from first principles using spacetime conservation concepts.
Utilized the axiom of spacetime velocity conservation
Applied theoretical frameworks from Time Field Theory
Analyzed the implications of the derived constant
Demonstrated that the fine-structure constant is approximately 1/137
Revealed that α is determined by cosmic spacetime conservation
Established α as a minimal observable tilt of the time field

Abstract

This is the seventh paper in the Time Field Theory series. Based on the spacetime velocity conservation axiom, the fine-structure constant α ≈ 1/137 is derived from first principles. The theory shows α is not a universal constant but the minimal observable tilt of the time field, determined by cosmic spacetime conservation.
