Structure of the carbon nucleus

POSTER

Abstract

In this paper, carbon nuclear structure is described geometrically, using the pyramidal cube theory of the static nucleus. This theory successfully described the iron nucleus. All other elements have been evaluated using the same sphere stacking rules that produced a new understanding of ferromagnetic phenomena. All elements heavier than boron have a cubic lattice of protons and neutrons in their centers. Outside of the cube, protons form lines of protons. The carbon nucleus has a cube of two protons and six neutrons. Four protons are positioned on the cube's surface in symmetrical locations. Carbon has three protons positioned to define one plane. The other three protons define a parallel plane. This is why graphite has planar crystals.
