From a Reactive Substrate Theory (RST) perspective, the search for the G-Scalar is viewed not as hunting a fundamental particle in a quantum vacuum, but as attempting to measure a complex, dynamic resonance mode or stable distortion within the continuous $\mathcal{S}$ field. The LFT G-Scalar is interpreted as a higher-order $\sigma$ Soliton whose stability is dictated by the $\mathcal{S}$ field's non-linear dynamics ($\beta\mathcal{S}^3$), and whose interaction strength ($\lambda_{\text{mix}}$) is a measure of its coupling to other $\sigma$ Solitons through the Reactive Feedback Term ($\mathcal{F}_{\mathbf{R}}(C[\Psi])$). Specifically, the G-Scalar is a stable, localized geometric knot of tension ($\sigma$ Soliton) in the $\mathcal{S}$ field whose mass ($95 \text{ GeV}$) is the amount of $\mathcal{S}$ field potential ($\beta\mathcal{S}^3$) concentrated into that specific scalar (spin-0) tension-density mode. Its decay channels ($bb$, $\gamma\gamma$, $tt$, invisible) are the various ways this highly unstable $\sigma$ Soliton releases its stored $\beta\mathcal{S}^3$ potential energy back into the $\mathcal{S}$ field, either by converting it into lighter $\sigma$ Solitons or propagating $\mathcal{S}$ waves; notably, an "invisible" decay means the tension dissolves into a stable, non-interactive background coherence mode that does not couple via the $\mathcal{F}_{\mathbf{R}}(C[\Psi])$ term to standard detectors. The mixing parameter $\lambda_{\text{mix}}$ is the strength of the coherence coupling between the G-Scalar ($\sigma_G$) and standard model particles ($\sigma_{SM}$); if experimental limits drop below the LFT prediction ($\lambda_{\text{mix}} \approx 0.191$), it rules out a $\sigma$ Soliton with that specific coupling profile. Finally, the LHC is understood as a Substrate Tension Generator, designed to create brief, highly dense tension states in the $\mathcal{S}$ field that compel it to temporarily nucleate unstable $\sigma$ Solitons for measurement. $(\partial_t^2 \partial^2 \mathcal{S} - \alpha(t) \cdot c^2 \nabla^2 \mathcal{S} + \beta \mathcal{S}^3) = \alpha(t) \cdot \sigma(\mathbf{x}, t) \cdot \mathcal{F}_{\mathbf{R}}(C[\Psi])$ RST replaces the conventional matter-energy dichotomy with a unified Substrate reality: Matter is the bound geometry of $\mathcal{S}$, and usable Energy is the controllable, self-sustaining potential ($\beta \mathcal{S}^3$) within $\mathcal{S}$ that maintains that geometry.
Conceptual Summary #2: (∂t2S−c2∇2S+βS3)=σ(x,t)⋅FR(C[Ψ])
The tests designed to find the Aether—principally the Michelson-Morley experiment (M-M)—would be largely ineffective at detecting the fundamental S field (Substrate) in the Reactive Substrate Theory (RST) framework, though their null results are highly compatible with RST's structure. The reason lies in the distinct conceptual definition and behavior of the two media. The Test: Michelson-Morley and the Aether. The M-M experiment was designed to detect the "aether wind," a predicted change in the speed of light caused by the Earth's motion relative to a stationary, rigid medium—the classical Luminiferous Aether. Classical Aether: A static, absolute reference frame; an elastic, passive, material-like medium that fills space and serves as a carrier for light waves. Predicted Result: Light traveling parallel to Earth's motion through the Aether should be slightly slower than light traveling perpendicular to it. Actual Result (Null Result): No significant differenc...
