Nassim Haramein

Nassim Haramein was born in 1962 in Geneva, Switzerland. Haramein’s father was a scholar at the University of Geneva completing a thesis under the guidance of the notable Jean Piaget, considered one of the fathers of child psychology. Although offered a position at the prestigious Piaget Institute, his father choose to accept a position at the child psychology department of the University of Montreal becoming the director of the orthopedagogy department. As a result, Nassim Haramein grew up in the Canadian environment and wilderness most of his childhood leading to an early successful career in the ski and mountaineering industry affording him a significant amount of time to observe and ponder the mechanics of the natural world. Starting in the early 1980’s, Haramein developed a significant interest in sciences and philosophy, specifically in physics and the nature of the material world. This led him to a deep and dedicated self-study of both the foundation of general relativity and quantum theory. After some ten years of intensive study and exploration, Haramein started lecturing in various contexts both in Canada and the USA. This resulted in a first physics paper published in 2004 with co-author, prominent physicist, Dr. Elizabeth Rauscher "The Origin of Spin": a consideration of torque and Coriolis forces in Einstein’s field equations and grand unification theory. Eventually Haramein published a seminal paper entitled “The Schwarzschild Proton” which described the proton as having equivalence energy and force structure to a mini-black hole due to quantum vacuum fluctuations. With the event of the holographic principle in physics, Haramein eventually published a series of papers describing the source of mass and the confining forces of subatomic particles being related to quantum vacuum fluctuations in a formalism dubbed the holographic mass solution. This peer-reviewed paper entitled “Quantum Gravity and the Holographic Mass”, published in 2013, employed a generalized holographic principle, relating the proton's charge radius and mass, and predicting a radius differing from the Standard Model by 4%. This proton radius was later validated through experiments at the Paul Scherrer Institute and is now the official CODATA value. From 2013 to present, Haramein publishes multiple papers addressing the nature of the electron and the so called missing mass issue in cosmology as well as a first paper on biophysics relating the structure of spacetime to the biological organizations of the brain entitled “The Unified Space Memory Network: from Cosmogenesis to Consciousness”. In September 2023, Haramein et al. pre-published a paper entitled “The Origin of Mass and Nature of Gravity” detailing the correlation functions related to the dynamic of the quantum vacuum and demonstrating that the mass and confining forces are the result of a screening mechanism of the density of the vacuum at the Planck scale. This initial paper is the first in a series that set the foundation for the unification of forces and physical constants which will follow.
