Abstract

This paper presents recent results of the GEMS (Gravity-Electro-Magnetism Super) unification theory which unifies the
four forces of nature. The GEMS theory was an unexpected development of an effort to unify only the two long-range
forces of nature: gravity and electromagnetism (EM). The two long range forces gravity and electro-magnetism are first unified,
and out of this unification also proceeds the unification of the short range weak and strong nuclear forces. They are unified
under the two postulates that: 1. Gravity fields are an array of electromagnetic Poynting cells and 2. The separate appearance of
gravity and EM fields from each other is correlated with the separation of protons and electrons from each other as they emerge
from the Planck scale with the appearance of a compact or hidden dimension. In the Standard Model all massive particles are
charged and move freely at short distances and even photons spend time as charged particles. The quark-electron split occurs
based on the asymmetry in dimensionality between space and time, with 3 quark colors representing space and the electron
representing time. The theory can be thought of as presently, a Bohr model of field unification, rudimentary but useful. The
theory is primarily geometric, and the classical radii of charged particles plays an unexpected role in physical calculations. The
proton, with its three interior quarks is born with the same effective radius as the electron- the electrostatic classical radius,
with the gluon-photon separation also occurring. The theory produces the value of G: the Newton gravitation constant, and
the proton mass accurately from the Planck scale with no free parameters. The theory produces the values of the masses,
charges and spins for the pions of the strong force and the W and Z bosons of the weak force as quantum Mie scatterings off
the compact dimension structures associated with the proton and electron masses. The Higgs boson mass follows from similar
formalism. The GEM theory extends the Standard Model to include gravitation and a detailed correspondence is shown with
electro-weak theory. The theory predicts a short lived, neutral spin 0 particle will be found at rest mass-energy approximately
22 MeV, and that a basic GEMS parameter σ=42.8503, occurs throughout the standard model in ratios of particle masses.
