Theoretical proof of the constancy of the speed of light in a vacuum

TL;DR

This paper provides a theoretical proof that the speed of light in a vacuum is constant, linking it to quantum mechanics and the minimum energy of particles, and explaining matter-antimatter asymmetry.

Contribution

It offers a novel theoretical demonstration that the constancy of light speed is derived from quantum field theory principles and minimum particle energy conditions.

Findings

Constancy of light speed is tied to minimum particle energy.

Existence of particles and antiparticles is demonstrated.

Matter dominates over antimatter.

Abstract

The constancy of the speed of light (the maximum velocity of interaction) is the second postulate of Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity. Currently, there is no correct theoretical proof of this constancy in all inertial frames of reference. This paper presents such a proof, demonstrating that quantum mechanics (quantum field theory) can only be formulated under the condition of the constancy of the speed of light in a vacuum. It has been established that this constancy is determined by the minimum energy of the particles. When this minimum is reached, two identical solutions emerge -- one with positive and one with negative energies. Thus, within the framework of classical physics, the existence of particles and antiparticles is demonstrated. It is shown that matter dominates over antimatter.
