All Things are One Thing

This simple equation is the most profound scientific statement about the universe we live in that you will ever learn. With it Einstein takes all existence and reduces it to one thing, energy-mass which composes all matter. Energy-mass is transmutable at a ratio defined by the speed or velocity of light, which is an absolute of our reference frame, multiplied by itself. This means that one gram of mass contains about 90 trillion grams of energy, quite a ratio. Nuclear weapons are a disturbing proof that this ratio is true, as are the fusion reactions that power our local star, the sun. Everything tangible that exists including galaxies, planets, you and me, which are made of cells, made of molecules, made of elements, made of atoms, is made of energy-mass. Everything made of one transmutable substance.

Definition of Charge

Fundamental charged particles come in two types, negatively charged like the electron or positively charged like the proton and the positron, the electrons anti-matter counterpart. If both are made of energy-mass, it would be logical to assume that some process occurs to form negative particles and some variation of that process occurs to form positive particles, at least in the cause and effect universe we inhabit.

The Author assumes this to be true and assumes directionality of polarity. Energy-mass changing in a direction toward mass, as mediated by C2 will have a positive polarity and energy-mass changing in a direction toward energy will have a negative charge. If viewed as a spectrum with mass at one end and energy at the other, charged particles, like the electron and positron are seen appearing at various stable positions in between. When electrons and positrons meet they annihilate each other in a violent release of energy. This would be expected because they epitomize each others direction of change on the energy-mass spectrum. It is observed in nature that opposite charges attract, like or same charges repel. The negatively charged electron should be attracted to and annihilate with the positively charged proton, as it does it's positively charged opposite the positron, but it doesn't. Under extreme conditions of temperature, pressure and velocity when an electron encounters a proton it changes that proton to a slightly more massive, charge-less neutron. The nuclei of all atoms, in every element larger than hydrogen, need neutrons to exist. There are no elements from helium on up that don't have neutrons
