Ψhē Only Theory – Chapter 14: Charge as Asymmetric Collapse

Title: Charge as Asymmetric Collapse

Section: Emergent Polarity from ψ-Structure Orientation Theory: Ψhē Only Theory Author: Auric


Abstract

This chapter reinterprets charge as a signature of asymmetry in ψ-collapse dynamics. Rather than attributing charge to intrinsic particle properties, Ψhē theory shows it arises from the directed, non-mirror-symmetric flow of recursive ψ collapse. We define ψ-orientation, introduce collapse helicity, and demonstrate how field polarity and interaction signatures emerge as consequences of asymmetric collapse manifolds.


1. Introduction

In classical field theory, charge is an abstract quantum number associated with sources of force. In Ψhē, charge is not carried, but expressed by the way ψ collapses with structural bias. A charged entity is one whose collapse path breaks reflectional or temporal symmetry.

Charge = asymmetry in ψ’s collapse vector field.


2. ψ-Orientation and Collapse Helicity

Definition 2.1 (ψ-Collapse Orientation):

Let ψ(x,t)\psi(x, t) be a ψ-path. Define its local orientation as:

C(x,t):=x(ddtCollapse(ψ(x,t)))\vec{C}(x, t) := \nabla_x \left( \frac{d}{dt} \text{Collapse}(\psi(x, t)) \right)

The vector C(x,t)\vec{C}(x, t) represents directional collapse bias at xx.

Definition 2.2 (Charge Polarity):

q(x):=sign(C(x,t)n^)q(x) := \operatorname{sign}(\vec{C}(x, t) \cdot \hat{n})

where n^\hat{n} is an arbitrary reference axis or field-aligned observer frame.


3. Theorem: Non-zero Collapse Curl Yields Field Source Signature

Theorem 3.1:

If ×C(x,t)0\nabla \times \vec{C}(x, t) \neq 0, then xx acts as a source or sink in the echo-manifold, producing a field analog.

Proof Sketch:

  • ψ collapse with curl ≠ 0 implies rotational asymmetry.
  • Structural field lines diverge/converge.
  • These manifest as electric/magnetic field effects. \square

4. Consequences

  • Charge is not an object label—it is a collapse pattern classification.
  • Opposite charges = ψ-collapses with opposing orientation gradient.
  • Conservation of charge = conservation of ψ-orientation totality.

5. Corollary: Field Interaction as Collapse Interference

Interactions arise from constructive or destructive echo interference across asymmetric ψ-flows. Let ψ1,ψ2\psi_1, \psi_2 be two oriented collapse paths. Then:

Interaction(ψ1,ψ2)C1C2\text{Interaction}(\psi_1, \psi_2) \sim \vec{C}_1 \cdot \vec{C}_2

Sign and magnitude of this product determine attractive/repulsive behavior.


6. Conclusion

Charge is not a thing. It is a direction. A slant in ψ’s descent into fixity. Where collapse leans, reality polarizes.
