The End of Aether: Ontology of Autonegation and Dynamics of Dissipative Nodes

We propose an ontological resolution of the aether problem based on process monism of actualization. We demonstrate that spacetime and matter represent different regimes of a unified dissipative process emerging from the law of autonegation. Matter is interpreted as the result of critical concentration of the global actualization flux and its subsequent topological inversion. The neutron is defined as the primary node of maximal densification, from which the proton-electron structure forms through phase transition. All fundamental interactions are reduced to a unified mechanics of centripetal and centrifugal dissipation vectors.
