Abstract

We suggest how quantum fields derive from quantum mechanics on intrinsic\nconfiguration spaces with the Lie groups U(3) and U(2) as key examples.\nHistorically the intrinsic angular momentum, the spin, of the electron was\nfirst seen as a new degree of freedom in 1925 by Uhlenbeck and Goudsmit to\nexplain atomic spectra in magnetic fields. Today intrinsic quantum mechanics\nseems to be able to connect the strong and electroweak interaction sectors of\nparticle physics. Local gauge invariance in laboratory space corresponds to\nleft-invariance in intrinsic configuration space. We derive the proton spin\nstructure function and the proton magnetic moment as novel results of the\ngeneral conception presented here. We hint at the origin of the electroweak\nmixing angle in up and down quark flavour generators. We show how to solve for\nbaryon mass spectra by a Rayleigh-Ritz method with all integrals found\nanalytically. We relate to existing and possibly upcoming experiments like\nLHCb, KATRIN, Project 8, PSI-MUSE and ILC to test our predictions for neutral\npentaquarks, proton radius, precise Higgs mass, Higgs self-couplings, beta\ndecay neutrino mass and dark energy to baryon matter ratio. We take intrinsic\nquantum mechanics to represent a step, not so much beyond the Standard Model of\nparticle physics, but to represent a step behind the Standard Model.\n
