| Description of the toroidino and its behaviour For clarity, the toroidinos in the drawings look like donuts or smoke rings and rotate like smoke rings around their circular axis. However, it may be more likely that they are individually almost spherical, since any *flowing* in of the surroundings would occur equally in all three dimensions. Also for clarity, the toroidinos are shown as appearing to be made of something tangible, the blue part, but of course they are nothing but tension and will extend well beyond the blue part, as indicated by the red *lines of force*. ![]() Although toroidinos are smaller than the Planck length and last no longer than the Planck time, they do have properties that will determine the characteristics of the space-time that is created by the process in which they take part. The first of these is that, being a toroid, with each doubling in its size, its surface area will increase four times. This, of course, means that the force of its attraction or repulsion will vary according to the inverse of the fourth multiple of the distance from it. This multiple may vary with how spherical the toroidino is. The second property of the toroidino is its vortex ring effect, that is, because one surface seems to be coming out of the hole and the opposite surface seems to be going in to the hole, it has the effect of making one side attractive and the other side repelling. ![]() One result of this is that one side of the toroidino appears to behave in way opposite from the other side and when it collapses both sides disappear. In other words it fits the description of a virtual particle and its antiparticle coming into existence at the same time and then annihilating each other. The second effect is that if two or more toroidinos come together face to back, that is lined up in the same way, they will be drawn together strongly (in proportion to the inverse of the fourth multiple of the distance). A similar effect occurs when bar magnets are lined up north-south. north south . . . ![]() Toroidinos that do not form these chains or "strings" will simply look and behave like virtual particles and their antiparticles until they disappear .
Perhaps this answers the question as to why there appears to be no long lasting anti-matter in the universe.

It should be appreciated that, even though the Planck time (@10-43s) is a very short time compared to the human scale, it is still a very long time compared with, say, 10-50s. In fact comparing 10-50s with 10-43s is like comparing one second with about 115 days, so you can see that it's still possible for much to happen even in what we as humans regard to be a vanishingly small time. ![]() Because of the rapid popping in and out of toroidinos, a process similar to oscillations, and the Casimir effect, the longer lasting toroidino strings will tend to clump together in oscillons, forming larger, longer lasting domains of energy, the form of which is now larger than the Planck scale and longer lasting than the Planck time. It is through this mechanism, level upon level of oscillons, that I am suggesting quarks may be formed. Remember, what we are seeing is a process, neither the toroidinos or the toroidino pairs last longer than the Planck time, even the first stage oscillons will last much longer but, like a lenticular cloud, they are a process as are the subsequent levels of oscillons, up to quarks and other particles, right up to protons, neutrons and electrons. That is, what we know as matter. In other words we ourselves are a process.
All this has been achieved without breaking the law of conservation of energy because we have not created anything that lasts longer than the Planck time.
Imagine moving a globule of treacle through the remainder of the treacle in a container, the stickier the treacle the more it will tend to 'hold on to' or resist the movement of the globule through it. Also, the larger the globule of treacle you try to move, the more effort will be required to move it. In other word, it behaves as if the treacle had inertia.
