Elementon

In Elemental Field Theory (EFT), the Elementon is a fundamental unit of energy representing an excitation in an elemental field. There are 14 elementons described in literature so far, each representing their respective elemental fields.

 Primary Elementons 

The Fire, Air, Water, and Earth Elementons constitute the primary elementons. They each represent a local field excitation in their respective fields. For example, a fire elementon is a packet of energy in the fire field. In Quantum Elemental Theory (QET), each of the four primary elementons are identical with the exception of their elemental angular moments. This means that all four primary elementons can simultaneously occupy the same quantum state. QET provides the leading explanation for the formation of the Elemental and Shadow elementons.

 Secondary and Tertiary Elementons 

Secondary and tertiary elemental fields are formed during higher degrees of excitation of a primary elementon. Vibration of the Fire elementon at its second energy level generates the electric field. Vibration of the Fire elementon at its third energy level generates the Star field. Paul Kit and others describe the stability of the Electric and Star elementons as indicative of stable Electric and Star fields in a closed system.

An alternative interpretation set forth by Dirac Kit considers that the Fire, Electric, and Star fields are modes of excitation in a more generalized Enthalpy field. Work by the Magic Academy has verified the force constants predicted by Dirac Kit's model in the Enthalpy field. Further work by Bose Fin has yielded similar results, describing the Water, Ice, and Crystal field states of the Entropy field. Asymmetries in the force constants between Enthalpy and Entropy field strengths as well as differing angular momenta of the Fire and Water elementon signify the lack of a unified Enthalpy-Entropy field description.
