• The claim that 'G-D's Physics' UNCIARE-JRH's MAI increases the values of space, energy, mass, and time annually contradicts the observed constancy of fundamental physical constants (fine-structure constant, Planck constant, gravitational constant) across multiple decades of precision measurements, yet the paper does not address how previously measured constant values reconcile with predicted annual increases in these four physical features.

  "G-D's Physics" New Paradigm's "Triumph": The New UNCIARE-JRH's MAI's UCF Explains Both Cosmic Acceleration & Four Physical Features' Values Increase! · 2026 · DOI

• The paper asserts that the Annual Minimal Increase (AMI) of 0.000968 km·s⁻¹·Mpc simultaneously affects microscopic quantum time acceleration and macroscopic relativistic spatial expansion, but does not specify experimental methods to measure time acceleration at quantum scales or detail how this dual-scale manifestation should be detected across different energy regimes.

• The paper proposes that space, energy, mass, and time all increase 'simultaneously' through the UCF computation during each JRH cycle, but does not specify how these four features can increase while maintaining consistency with established conservation laws (energy conservation, mass-energy conservation) or how the proposed increases in mass and energy are distributed across the observable universe's matter distribution.

  "G-D's Physics" New Twenty-First Century's ACC Paradigm Negates the Old "MCR" Paradigm's GRT "Big-Bang" & QM "Standard Model"! · 2026 · DOI

• The paper claims that the UNCIARE-JRH's Accelerated Time Rate explanation resolves Hubble's Tension through an annual AMI increase of 0.000968 km s−1 Mpc in the universe's expansion rate, but provides no comparative analysis of observational datasets from Type Ia supernovae surveys, Cosmic Microwave Background measurements, or baryon acoustic oscillations data that would test whether this specific acceleration rate matches empirical H₀ measurements from early vs. late-universe epochs.

• If validated, the Unified Attraction Theory could provide a conceptual stepping stone toward a complete Theory of Everything (ToE). Future work will focus on: Deriving explicit mathematical unification models from quantum field theory principles. Testing predictions in high-energy particle collisions and gravitational wave observations. Exploring the role of symmetry breaking in the emergence of different force modes. — Unified Attraction Theory Initial Assumptions. We assume the existence of a unified effective field whose effective exchange channels at low energies are given by three types of mediators (scalar, vector, spin-2) with complex masses and couplings. For matter, the currents are identical to the channels: scalar current, vector current, and energy-momentum tensor. The coupling vertices are written: Lagrangian of effective low-energy interaction. Lint = g0 c(0) ϕ J (0) + g1 c(1) AµJ (1)µ + g2 2 hµνT µν. 2 Amplitude calculation at tree-level diagram (leading order). When a mediator of type s is exchanged between two stationary bodies 1 and 2, the scattering amplitude in the quantum field theory framework at tree level takes the form: Ms(q) = Ss g2 s c(s) 1 (cid:0)c(s) 2 (cid:1)∗ 1 q2 + m2 s, Transforming the amplitude to static potential. The two-particle potential in the non-relativistic Born approximation is extracted via a three-dimensional Fourier transform: V(s)(r) = − (cid:90) d3q (2π)3 eiq·r Ms(q).
