Vacion Theory: From Electron to Universe - A Unified Fractal Framework for Mass Generation, Cosmology, and Vacuum Structure

We present a unified theory where all massive particles emerge as bound states of fundamental vacuum excitations called vacions. The electron, rather than being elementary, is a resonant mode with fractional binding number m≈0.35 in the 23-channel structured vacuum (V₂₃). The observable Universe exhibits exact self-similarity with the electron at scaling factor 23³⁰, predicting the total cosmic mass M_U = m_e × 23³⁰ ≈ 10⁵³ kg with zero adjustable parameters (matches observation). The Hubble constant emerges geometrically as H₀ = c/R_U ≈ 54 km/s/Mpc, where R_U = λ_e × 23³⁰. Cosmological redshift is reinterpreted as vacion de-excitation through vacuum grain interactions: z = exp[αd/(23λ₀)] - 1, eliminating the need for metric expansion. The cosmic microwave background (CMB) represents thermal radiation of the vacion field scaled to cosmic dimensions, predicting T_CMB ≈ 2.0 K (observed: 2.725 K). We derive the fundamental vacuum wavelength λ₀ independently from:- Atomic physics (icosahedral geometry): 1.2×10⁻¹⁰ m- Cosmology (Hubble constant): 1.9×10⁻¹⁰ mThe ratio 1.58 ≈ π/2 arises naturally from helical channel geometry (arc length vs. chord), confirming vacuum structure rather than indicating error. The theory unifies particle physics, cosmology, and vacuum structure under a single geometric principle with zero free parameters, resolving the Hubble tension, cosmological constant problem, and mass hierarchy through fractal self-similarity. Five falsifiable predictions are provided, testable with current technology:1. Casimir force correction factor (1 - 1/23)2. Icosahedral CMB anisotropy at 63.43° with amplitude ~4%3. Gamma-ray burst spectral cutoff at ω ≈ 10¹⁹ Hz4. Supernovae luminosity distance: d_L(z) = (c/H₀)(1+z)ln(1+z)5. Effective vacion mass m_vac ≈ 10⁻²³ kg detectable in precision QED
