Recent advances in string theory and inflationary cosmology have led to a surge of interest in the possible existence of an ensemble of cosmic regions, or "universes", among the members of which key physical parameters, such as the masses of elementary particles and the coupling constants, might assume different values. The observed values in our cosmic region are then attributed to an observer selection effect (the so-called anthropic principle). The assemblage of universes has been dubbed "the multiverse". In this paper we review the multiverse concept and the criticisms that have been advanced against it on both scientific and philosophical grounds.

We attempt here to calculate the particle masses for all known elementary particles starting from the Rydberg equation and from the Sommerfeld fine structure constant. Remarkably, this is possible. Next, we try to explain why this is possible and what the meaning of the approach seems to be. Thereby, we find some interesting connections. In addition, we realize that there are two different kinds of mass-charge binding energies in an elementary particle: The internal mass-charge binding energy and the external mass-charge binding energy. These two kinds of mass-charge binding energies can explain the higher masses of the highly charged brother particles in some of the heavier particle triplets (such as the charmed sigma particles).

This chapter examines the constraints coming from the symmetry properties of the fundamental interactions on the possible values of the masses of elementary particles. We first establish a relation between the range of an interaction and the mass of the particle which mediates it. This relation implies, in particular, that long-range interactions are mediated by massless particles. Then we argue that gauge invariant interactions are long ranged and, therefore, the associated gauge particles must have zero mass. Second, we look at the properties of the constituents of matter, the quarks and the leptons. We introduce the notion of chirality and we show that the known properties of weak interactions, combined with the requirement of gauge invariance, force these particles also to be massless. The conclusion is that gauge symmetries appear to be incompatible with massive elementary particles, in obvious contradiction with experiment. This is the problem of mass.

Abstract In a model in which the usual elementary particles (leptons, quarks, photons, weak bosons, gluons, and so on) are bound states of truly elementary fermions we present a method for the calculation of the masses of these bound states. The kinetic energy of this model contains derivatives of second order so that the four-fermion interaction becomes renormalizable. The method uses explicit representations for the Hilbert space vectors of bound states.

We try to solve three decades-old physics challenges. List all elementary particles. Describe dark matter. Describe mechanisms that govern the rate of expansion of the universe. We propose new modeling. The modeling uses extensions to harmonic oscillator mathematics. The modeling points to all known elementary particles. The modeling suggests new particles. Based on those results, we do the following. We explain observed ratios of dark matter amounts to ordinary matter amounts. We suggest details about galaxy formation. We suggest details about inflation. We suggest aspects regarding changes in the rate of expansion of the universe. We interrelate the masses of some elementary particles. We interrelate the strengths of electromagnetism and gravity. Our work seems to offer new insight regarding applications of harmonic oscillator mathematics. Our work seems to offer new insight regarding three branches of physics. The branches are elementary particles, astrophysics, and cosmology.
