[v23-published] - 2025-06-01 - "Publication Release"
Added
- Published on viXra.org at https://ai.vixra.org/
- New README.md with compelling Reddit-style introduction
- Expanded philosophical sections on spacetime emergence from spin
- Enhanced acknowledgments recognizing AI collaboration
Changed
- Final refinements to abstract emphasizing philosophical insight
- Updated introduction to better integrate the guiding principle
- Improved consistency of "atoms are balls" messaging throughout
- Clarified that gravity is the centripetal force of spacetime
Fixed
- Minor LaTeX formatting issues
- Reference formatting consistency

- Final proofreading corrections
[v23] - 2025-06-01 - "Atoms are Balls"
Changed
- Complete paradigm shift: Renamed to "Atoms are Balls: Why Three-Dimensional Rotation Explains Atomic Binding from Hydrogen to Gold"
- Multi-atom verification: Extended analysis from just hydrogen to H, He, C, Fe, Au
- Core message clarity: Emphasized 2D vs 3D atomic conceptualization as the key insight
Added
verify_atoms_balls.py
- Proves concept works across periodic table- Table showing 99%+ agreement for 5 different atoms
- Clearer connection to quantum gravity implications
- Executive summary document
Fixed
- Repositioned work as discovery rather than theory
- Made "zero free parameters" achievement prominent
- Clarified that electromagnetic force = quantum gravity at atomic scale
[v22] - 2025-05-27 - "Computational Honesty"
Added
- Systematic analysis of 8 open stellar clusters
- Galaxy rotation curve analysis showing framework failures
- Scale-dependent σ(r,M,ρ) function with three factors
- Unified Force-Energy world formula: E² = (pc)² + (mc²)² + E_spin + E_tether + E_bind
- Critical assessment section acknowledging limitations
- Computational validation plots and quantitative tables
Changed
- Modified σ from constant to σ(r,M,ρ) with mass and density dependence
- Updated abstract to be honest about failures from the start
- Reframed as "exploring connections" not "unified theory"
Fixed
- Acknowledged galaxy rotation curves fail (σ exceeds limits by 36-200×)
- Stated clearly: "cannot replace dark matter"
- Made limitations explicit throughout
[v21] - 2025-05-20 - "Modular Structure"
Changed
- Split monolithic document into modular .tex files
- Organized into: header, theory, examples, observations
- Created main_document.tex that includes all sections
Added
- README explaining file structure

Philosophy
This changelog preserves not just what changed, but HOW we arrived at these insights. The path from a dog walk to quantum gravity is as important as the destination.
