Theoretical model predicts strong coupling constant behavior in quark interactions, suggesting electromagnetic basis.
A theoretical prediction of the strong coupling constant based on a non-perturbative framework derived from Bridge Theory (BT) application is presented, in which strong interactions emerge from electromagnetic dipole interactions (DEMS) between fractional charges. Without relying on Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) or renormalization group formalism, we derive a functional expression for as a function of energy scale , based on the spatial and energetic configuration of quark interactions. The resulting function exhibits asymptotic freedom at high energies and yields values of in close agreement with experimental data in the 91–4000 GeV range. The predicted behaviour matches the experimental running of across various particle production channels, including , , and heavy boson processes. The model provides a geometric interpretation of strong coupling as an emergent electromagnetic effect governed by the local structure of the dipole system, avoiding the need for additional gauge fields. These results suggest that the strong coupling constant may derive from universal interaction principles and that strong force dynamics could be reinterpreted within an electromagnetic framework. The method is fully predictive and does not rely on fitted parameters.
