On the emergent origin of the inertial mass

TL;DR

This paper explores how inertial mass may originate from emergent quantum mechanics principles, offering new interpretations of inertia and deriving the energy-time uncertainty relation.

Contribution

It introduces a framework where inertial mass emerges from quantum mechanics, providing novel insights into inertia and fundamental quantum relations.

Findings

Proposes an emergent origin of inertial mass.

Provides an emergent interpretation of the law of inertia.

Derives the energy-time uncertainty relation from the framework.

Abstract

In the context of a particular framework of emergent quantum mechanics, it is argued the emergent origin of the inertial mass of a physical systems. Two main consequences of the theory are discussed: an emergent interpretation of the law of inertia and a derivation of the energy-time uncertainty relation.
