Thought-Particles

Thought-Particles (思考粒子 Shikō ryūshi), also known as God Particles, God Splinters or Un-Higgs Bosons by humans, are fundamental and elementary particles which act as bricks for the foundation of the universe and all of its dimensions. They are not to be confused with the human notions of "God Particles" or Higgs-Bosons, elementary particles which confer property only to the material planes together with photons, gluons, W and Z bosons. All of these are a derivative of the Thought-Particles who are the "True" God Particles.

Thought-Particles do not strictly follow the standard rules of physics nor the laws of the material planes. They are the tiniest fragments of the original deity who created the universe and make up all of reality including the material planes, the higher-dimensional astral planes, the Sacred Root, and all Sentinels. They are also and primarily the unseen moving force of the Eternal Cycle that keep the universe expanding.

Characteristics
Thought-particles have no mass just like photons and only carry a primordial form of energy known as the Thought (hence the name), also referred to as God by various civilizations. This type of energy is what gives the particles their miracoulous properties; it is an infinite power source which transcends the material planes.

Sentinels are the beings with the highest concentrations of Thought-particles, while mortal life forms are the lesser ones. By manipulating their large quantities of thought-particles Sentinels can manifest their essence through their Dogma. Dimensions and universes also have their own amount of thought-particles which can deplete or generate over time further feeding the cycle. Higher concentrations of thought-particles can form multiple quantum phenomena: from more understood ones such as black holes to more "supernatural" occurrencies such as spiritual possessions.

Thought-particles are also the parameters that describe the Infinity Equation, the mathematical representation of the universe.

Trivia

 * Human scientists of the NEXT nicknamed the particle as the Un-Higgs Boson because the formulation of theories that try to describe the particle do not rely on the standard models of physics as described by Peter Higgs.
 * Despite this, they still share the structure of the Bose-Einstein statistics theory, hence why they keep being referred as bosons.
 * Quantum Random Numbers Generators (QRNG) are able to point with varying degrees of accuracy the highest concentrations of thought-particles. Individuals with these powers are known by castelians as Diviners.
 * Magic, Spellcrafting and other powers are the result of control over large quantities of thought-particles.
 * Faith and Science are the most common ways of generating thought-particles.
