Eytan Suchard

Eytan H. Suchard has devoted his life to re-examining the deepest questions in physics and philosophy, with a conviction that science has not yet exhausted its ability to describe reality in full. Based in Israel, Suchard approaches research as an independent thinker—outside traditional institutional structures—yet with a rigor that places his work squarely within the ongoing debates in theoretical physics. His career reflects a rare blending of scientific creativity and philosophical reflection, always with the aim of uncovering the mathematical essence behind natural phenomena.

Unlike many researchers who follow the conventional academic track, Suchard has cultivated a truly interdisciplinary identity. His professional background shows a mix of engineering, mathematics, and software expertise, all of which inform his highly technical explorations in fundamental physics. This breadth gives him both the tools and the perspective to approach questions of gravity, electromagnetism, and quantum foundations from unconventional angles.

Research Focus: Electrogravity and the Chronon Field

A central theme in Suchard’s research is the concept of electrogravity, which seeks to unify electromagnetism and gravitation within a single geometric framework. In a series of papers published on Academia.edu and arXiv, he introduces the idea of a scalar field of time, sometimes referred to as a chronon field. Unlike traditional physics, where time is treated as a coordinate, Suchard reimagines time as a universal scalar field permeating reality.

Within this framework, electromagnetic phenomena do not arise as separate forces but rather as results of non-geodesic alignments of events in spacetime. Gravity, in turn, is reinterpreted through this event-based geometry, with electric charge acting differently from mass. While mass interacts with gravity through inertia, electric charge modifies the structure of spacetime via alignment vectors. This subtle but radical shift suggests new ways to think about how the fundamental constants of nature arise.

His works, such as Electro-Gravity Via Geometric Chronon Field and On a Scalar Field of Time and Electromagnetism, explore how field interactions may explain the fine-structure constant, mass ratios among elementary particles, and even the possibility of a fifth fundamental force. The implications of these explorations reach far into cosmology and particle physics, suggesting that the very scaffolding of physical law may be emergent from geometry rather than imposed externally.

Purpose and Philosophical Vision

Beneath Suchard’s mathematical models lies a deeper philosophical pursuit. He describes his life’s purpose in profoundly integrative terms:

“All physical phenomena can be mathematically described as the collapse of events, and the existence of forces—and thus of matter—is a result of non-geodesic alignment of these events.”

This vision frames reality not as a collection of isolated particles and fields, but as a dynamic collapse of events into patterns that we recognize as physical law. Forces and matter are not primary—they are consequences of alignment within the unfolding tapestry of spacetime.

He extends this idea further by arguing that every probabilistic system can be embedded in a deterministic object. This object, which plays the role of an observer, ensures coherence in the world of events. Yet, Suchard acknowledges that the true nature of such an observer lies beyond the reach of science. It cannot be dissected, measured, or contained by scientific methodology—but its existence, he asserts, is inevitable. This balance of mathematical description with philosophical humility sets his worldview apart.

Expanding the Boundaries of Physics

Eytan Suchard’s contributions are not merely theoretical curiosities; they represent a serious attempt to resolve some of the greatest puzzles in physics. By reframing the relationship between probability, determinism, and observation, his research resonates with questions at the heart of quantum mechanics and general relativity.

Quantum Foundations: His embedding of probabilistic systems within deterministic frameworks echoes the long-standing debates over hidden variables, determinism, and the interpretation of quantum measurement.
Cosmology & Gravity: His geometric approach offers fresh perspectives on the unification of gravity and electromagnetism, a goal that has eluded physics for over a century since Einstein’s own attempts at unified field theory.
Constants of Nature: By seeking mathematical structures that naturally produce observed mass ratios and coupling constants, Suchard addresses one of the deepest mysteries of physics—why these numbers are what they are.

Independent Scholarship and Public Sharing

One of the remarkable aspects of Suchard’s career is his commitment to independent scholarship. Without the resources of large laboratories or university departments, he publishes and shares his work through open platforms like Academia.edu and arXiv. This approach reflects both intellectual courage and a belief that transformative insights can emerge outside traditional institutions.

Through his writings, Suchard has contributed not only to scientific dialogue but also to the philosophy of science, challenging the community to consider whether current frameworks adequately reflect the nature of reality. His work exemplifies the spirit of scientific independence—bold, rigorous, and unapologetically speculative in the best sense of the word.

Legacy in Progress

Eytan Suchard’s research is ongoing, and his theories continue to evolve. While his ideas remain outside the mainstream, they invite deeper engagement with the foundational questions of physics. Whether or not his chronon field model achieves empirical confirmation, his commitment to uniting mathematics, physics, and philosophy reflects a broader legacy: that science progresses not only through experiments and equations, but also through the courage to ask radical questions.
