Quantitative description of orthopositronium anomalies achieved

Hypothesis of space-time defect restoration proposed

Connection between e--mu--tau universality and space-time quantization established

Abstract

The quantitative description of the orthopositronium anomalies ("isotope anomaly" in a gaseous neon for the "resonance conditions" and "lambda{T}-anomaly" in non-resonance conditions) is possible on the basis of a hypothesis about restoration of spontaneously broken complete relativity (A.F.Andreev, 1982) of the limited space-time "volume" ("defect" of the space-time) in a final state of the beta{+}-decay of nucleus such as Na-22, Ga-68, etc. This addition of the Standard Model in a final state of the topological quantum transition (non-steady-state, a generalized displacement current) supposes the description on the common basis timelike fundamental particles (locality) and spacelike fundamental structure (non-locality without causal paradoxes). One of achievements of expansion of Standard Model can be a substantiation of topological connection e-mu-tau-Universality with discrete structure (quantization) "defect" of the space-time.
