A Numbers-Based Approach to a Free Particle's Spacetime
2020
A possibility is proposed to define the proper spacetime of a free nonzerorest- mass m_0 particle based on the connection of its lasting proper time to an open sequence of natural numbers counting de Broglie time periods (h/c^2)(m^(-1)_ 0 ) [see R. Ferber, A Missing Link: What is Behind de Broglie's" Periodic Phenomenon"?, Foundations of Physics Letters 9, 575 (1996)]. It is suggested to define a set of twodirectional intervals of the particle's proper space (proper distances) following the construction of positive and negative integers from the ordered pairs of the natural numbers, which belong to the sequence 1, 2, ..., n defining the elapsed interval of de Broglie time t_n.
