Discovery of a Low-Frequency Gravitational Background Mode ( 0.06 Hz): Structural-Informational Model of Space-Time

Abstract: A previously unknown low-frequency pulsation of the metric structure of space–time with a characteristic frequency of approximately 0.06 Hz is theoretically and experimentally detected. This pulsation manifests itself as a stable background mode that uniformly affects the dynamics of particles and macroscopic objects in different locations and under various observational conditions. It is shown that this phenomenon has a gravitational nature and is caused by variations in the energy density of space–time itself. A two-level structure of space–time is revealed, characterized by fundamental pressure: at the fundamental level, a background structure is formed that is responsible for gravitation and nuclear interactions, whereas at the local level, in the presence of matter, it transforms into a normal cellular structure responsible for electromagnetism. The postulated phenomenon unifies classical mechanics, gravitation, quantum theory, fundamental interactions, and cosmology within a single structural–informational description of space–time. On this basis, a direct link between general relativity and quantum mechanics is established, and the structural nature of gravitation is revealed. An alternative wave model of the proton with respect to the Standard Model is presented, leading to a structural explanation of confinement. Elementary particles are interpreted as stable localized oscillatory states of the background medium. An alternative to the Higgs mechanism of mass generation is demonstrated, in which mass arises as a purely structural property of space–time determined by the volume and energy density of the background cells. The pulsation of the space–time of the Universe is shown to be capable of modulating the dynamical frequencies that govern the physical properties of particles and macroscopic systems.
