Ontological Deconstruction of the Fine Structure Constant

The fine structure constant α ≈ 1/137 is regarded in standard physics as a fundamental dimensionless constant characterizing the strength of electromagnetic interaction. This paper, within the framework of World Quantum Theory (WQT), proposes an ontological deconstruction of α. Starting from the ontological definition of permittivity established in the companion paper [5], we derive an explicit expression for α in terms of the particle's kinematic ratio d/v: α = x · d / (4π · v) In the terrestrial electron environment (x = 2π): α = d / (2v) Substituting the actual kinematic parameters of the electron (v ≈ 1.09×10⁶ m/s, d ≈ c ≈ 3×10⁸ m/s): α_WQT = d / (2v) ≈ 275 / 2 ≈ 137.5 This is the central claim of this paper: the WQT-derived value of α is ≈ 137, but standard physics measures α ≈ 1/137. The two values are exact reciprocals: α_std · α_WQT ≈ 1 Humanity has read the radial-to-tangential ratio d/v upside down. Standard physics measures the inverse ratio v/d, and labels the result 1/137. The actual kinematic state of the electron has d/v ≈ 275, not 1/275. We propose direct experimental tests of the electron's kinematic ratio to confirm or falsify this claim.
