26. My head hurts.

What did that say? I thought I understood this part:

This report is written with the aim of describing the basic architecture of Heim´s theory in mainly non-technical terms... the terminology of field theory is often replaced by less specific but more readily comprehensible expressions.


Then here's the abstact:

Heim´s Theory is defined in a 6-dimensional world, in 2 dimensions of which events take place that organize processes in the 3 dimensions of our experience. A very small natural constant, called a “metron“, is derived, representing the smallest area that can exist in nature. This lead to the conclusion that space must be composed of a 6-dimensional geometric lattice of very small cells bounded on all sides by metrons. The existence of metrons requires our usual infinitesimal calculus to be replaced by one of finite areas. The unperturbed lattice represents empty vacuum. Local deformations of the lattice indicate of something other than empty space. If the deformation is of the right form and complexity it acquires the property of mass and inertia. Elementary particles are complex dynamical systems of locally confined interacting lattice distortions. Thus the theory geometricizes the world by viewing it as a huge assemblage of very small deformations of a 6-dimensional lattice in vacuum. The theory also has significant consequences for cosmology.


Here's what I understood:

...


So glad that scientific terminology was replaced by "more readily comprehensible expressions"! :rofl:

God, I feel like a Far Side cartoon:

:rofl:
