A Unified Hypothesis for Matter Stability, Aging, Time Emergence and Cosmological Phase Transitions

This work presents a speculative theoretical framework proposing that all material systems possess internal conjugate states coexisting in dynamic equilibrium with observable matter. These states are not identified strictly with standard antimatter, but represent a broader internal structure whose energetic phases govern material stability, aging, degradation, radioactivity, and large-scale cosmological behavior. In this model, energy does not create the conjugate states but induces transitions between their energetic regimes. Material aging and the arrow of time are interpreted as emergent consequences of irreversible conjugate-state activation rather than fundamental primitives. The framework naturally extends from microscopic matter to planetary, astrophysical, and cosmological systems, offering reinterpretations of radioactive decay, black holes, and the Big Bang as manifestations of energetic phase transitions. The proposal is formulated to remain compatible with established principles of thermodynamics, quantum field theory, and observational cosmology. It is presented as a phenomenological and conceptual contribution, providing a unifying interpretation and testable indirect predictions rather than a finalized or experimentally confirmed theory.
