Neutrino-antineutrino plasma defines spacetime and the vacuum

A plasma of right-handed neutrinos and left-handed antineutrinos fills the observable universe. The plasma defines spacetime and the quantum vacuum.

Neutrinos have spin and weak-force charge, so they have a magneto-weak moment similar to the magnetic moment of an electron. Early in the universe, the density of neutrinos and antineutrinos was high enough that their magneto-weak moments spontaneously aligned, roughly as electron magnetic moments spontaneously align when iron cools below its Curie temperature. This alignment released enough energy to make more neutrinos, kicking off inflation and filling space with right-handed neutrinos and left-handed antineutrinos at density ~10⁵⁴/m³. The process continues today as dark energy: weak-force potential energy between neutrinos transforms into more neutrino pairs. The magneto-weak binding energy of neutrinos in the plasma is so strong (~10¹⁶ eV) that they cannot mutually annihilate and we cannot detect them in today’s colliders.

This theory has surprising explanatory power. From properties of the plasma, it derives the values of c, G, ħ, Λ, m_Z, m_W, m_H, and m_top, the origin and nature of the Higgs field and dark matter, and why neutrinos appear to violate parity. It predicts testable upper limits on kinetic energy for astrophysical particles. It shows that Z⁰, H⁰, and W^± are composite particles and that gravitation is emergent rather than fundamental.
