“…xxx Firstly, we suspect, but not with sufficient insight to attempt to calculate from von Neumann's postulate suggesting that speed of collapse of the quantum wavefunction [20] could be applied to explain the marked improvement between Chantler's initial two decades of experiments on hydrogen and the 2012 NIST experiment on Helium-like titanium with a 5 statistical standard deviations improvement [16,17]. Is it possible that the difference in radius of electron orbits between hydrogen and 2-electron titanium ions could play a part in explaining the QED violation effect or provide indicia of hidden XD/LSXD?…”

“…QED tests are often based on X-ray spectroscopic measurements. Recent results along these lines come from a program by Chantler [16][17][18]. Several tests of diverse forms over 10 to 15 years produced many possible discrepancies in QED theory; initially, interpretation problems and critical views of possible experimental error generally left those results ignored by the physics community.…”

A radical, albeit pragmatic protocol for experimental access to putative String/M-theoretic, Einstein Unified Field Mechanical (UFM) additional dimensionality (XD) of the brane-bouquet bulk is presented. If successful, results demonstrate the existence dimensionality beyond the metric of observed physical reality provided by the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics and Cosmology. Quantum Mechanics (QM), as well-known is incomplete and further, should no longer be considered the basement of reality; meaning, Locality and Unitarity – the fundaments of quantum theory are an insufficient basis for extending the representation of reality. A seminal model of Tight Bound States (TBS) below the lowest Bohr orbit in the hydrogen atom, proposed by Vigier, is extended to a Kaluza-Klein-like (KK) cyclical tier of XD hyperspherical cavities defined within a manifold of uncertainty (MOU) of finite radius up to the semi-quantum limit, predicting, within its domain, new spectral lines in Hydrogen. The proposed protocol for this process, with phase modifications, provides efficacy of large-scale additional dimensionality (LSXD) of the brane bulk; XD-LSXD incursion duality accesses nonlocal Einsteinian UFM phenomena, leading to myriad new classes of technological innovation.

“…The body of experimental literature, arising from many different groups across a range of elements and using quite different experimental excitation and detection methods, is consistent with the approximately Z 4 deviation that we report here. Other authors have considered experimental measurements of QED to deviate from the theories of past work, or have raised questions about specific values of Z [1,35,40,41], but these conjectures have sometimes been reversed in subsequent reports [17,21], reflecting the scarcity of all-Z data and large uncertainties at the time. Here, both by increasing the accuracy of our own measurement and by performing a meta-analysis of the global data set, we postulate and present statistically strong and systematically consistent evidence for a functional dependence that may relate to specific correlation and Feynman diagrams.…”

p ) found a major discrepancy with quantum electrodynamics (QED) and independent nuclear size determinations. Here we find a significant discrepancy in a different type of exotic atom: a medium-Z nucleus with two electrons. Investigation of the data collected is able to discriminate between available QED formulations and reveals a pattern of discrepancy of almost six standard errors of experimental results from the most recent theoretical predictions, with a functional dependence proportional to Z n where ≃ n 4. In both the muonic and highly charged systems, the sign of the discrepancy is the same, with the measured transition energy higher than predicted. Some consequences are possible or probable, and some are more speculative. This may give insight into effective nuclear radii, the Rydberg, the fine-structure constant, or unexpectedly large QED terms.

“…The experiment if successful would demonstrate a violation of QED. The timing for theoretical acceptance is good because QED has recently been violated in Titanium atoms to a discernible degree [3]. Such preliminary experiments in the history of physics often start as tiny cracks in a theory that have to be repeated and extended many times to produce sufficiently salient effects.…”

“…Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) sacrosanct for the past 50 years is now summarily being violated [2][3][4]. QED, the relativistic quantum field theory (RQFT) of electrodynamics describes the interaction of light and matter; and was the first theory to mesh full agreement between quantum mechanics and special relativity.…”

Physics has been slowly and reluctantly beginning to address the role and fundamental basis of the 'observer' which has until now also been considered metaphysical and beyond the mandate empirical rigor. It is suggested that the fundamental premise of the currently dominant view of 'Cognitive Theory'-"Mind Equals Brain" is erroneous; and the associated belief that the 'Planck scale, 'the so-called basement level of reality', as an appropriate arena from which to model psycho-physical bridging is also in error. In this paper we delineate a simple, inexpensive experimental design to 'crack the so-called cosmic egg' thereby opening the door to largescale extra dimensions (LSXD) tantamount to the regime of the unified field and thus awareness. The methodology surmounts the quantum uncertainty principle in a manner violating Quantum Electrodynamics, (QED), a cornerstone of modern theoretical physics, by spectrographic analysis of newly theorized Tight-Bound State (TBS) Bohr orbits in 'continuous-state' transition frequencies of atomic hydrogen. If one wonders why QED violation in the spectra of atomic hydrogen relates to solving the mind-body (observer) problem; consider this a 1 st wrench in a forthcoming tool box of Unified Field Mechanics, U F that will soon enough in retrospect cause the current tools of Classical and Quantum Mechanics to appear as stone axes. Max Planck is credited as the founder of quantum mechanics with his 1900 quantum hypothesis that energy is radiated and absorbed discretely by the formulation, E = hv. Empirically implementing this next paradigm shift utilizing parameters of the long sought associated 'new physics' of the 3 rd regime (classicalquantum-unified) allows access to LSXD of space; thus pragmatically opening the domain of mental action for the 1 st time in history. This rendering constitutes a massive paradigm shift to Unified Field Theory creating a challenge for both the writer and the reader!
