Support Independent Research

You Are Funding Real Science

The Golden Physics Project is an independent research programme founded by theoretical physicist Daniel Toupin. There is no university department, no grant committee, no institutional budget. The work is funded directly by people who believe that independent science matters.

When you buy a research paper, a book, a physics gadget, or a consultation session from this store, that money goes to one place: keeping this research going.

What the Research Is

Daniel is working on a unified geometric framework — the Shadow Framework — that connects quantum gravity, scattering amplitudes, and the Riemann Hypothesis through a single mathematical structure: self-dual Haar measure on the Grassmannian Gr(2,4).

This is not speculative philosophy. The framework makes precise, testable predictions:

  • The dark energy equation of state (w₀ = −0.85, wₐ = −0.21) — derivable, not fitted, and consistent with current DESI data
  • The cosmic dipole anomaly across five independent surveys — explained by a zero-parameter formula
  • 357 independently verified numerical spectral tests across five sectors: amplitudes, Riemann zeros, Yang-Mills gap, Standard Model masses, and dark matter
  • The Yang-Mills mass gap from infrared S-matrix constraints — connecting a Millennium Prize problem to observable physics

Thirty research papers have been published. The work continues.

Why Independent Research

Modern physics funding channels research into narrow, institutional directions. Independent researchers can follow problems wherever the mathematics leads — without permission, without committees, without career pressure to produce fashionable results.

That independence has a cost. It runs entirely on direct support.

How to Help

  • Buy a paper. Each author's note is $5 CAD and comes with full access to the research. Thirty papers are available, each addressing a different facet of the framework.
  • Buy a gadget. The science instruments and physics gifts in our store are curated by a working physicist to be genuinely educational — and every sale funds the next paper.
  • Book a session. A 1-hour consultation with Daniel directly supports his time and research capacity.
  • Share the work. Pointing even one curious person toward goldenphysics.org or this store costs nothing and matters more than it seems.
