Abstract
A fractal particle is a three-dimensional, standing-wave pattern. This paper examines how fractal particles can become shorter in wavelength ? and vibrate faster ? with the passage of time. ?Absolute? time is defined independently of particles, and hence is unchanging. ?Relative? time is based on the period of oscillation of fractal particles; it changes relative to the age of a fractal universe. In this paper, a simple, elegant equation is derived to correlate these two time standards, and calculate the age of our universe. I show here how particle interactions are possible: the standing wave around a source particle interacts with the maximum energy density at the core of a test particle, resulting in a redirection of energy, i.e., a force. For a test particle starting at rest, this electrostatic force increases the kinetic energy of the test particle. Repulsion between like-particles and attraction between unalike-particles is explained by the cylindrical or spherical symmetries of fractal particles. Gravitational attraction occurs because, as particle wavelengths become shorter with time, a portion of the energy stored around the test particle gradually is released in a way that causes an attractive force.
