A Neoclassical Framework That Reunifies Modern Physics

The unity of classical physics was broken by quantum uncertainty on the micro level and curved spacetime on the cosmic level. In contrast, a novel neoclassical picture is presented*, which incorporates key aspects of quantum and relativistic physics, while maintaining deterministic local reality at all levels. This is based on the following principles:
1) Real rotating vector fields self-organize into soliton-like wave packets with quantized spin; these represent elementary particles.
2) Characteristic frequency and wavelength of these wave packets define time and space, and are modulated by gravity.
3) Wave packets maintain constant frequency for both massive and massless particles, reproducing relativistic trajectories.
4) Transitions are due to continuous interactions between wave packets that conserve total frequency, wavevector, and spin.
This approach maintains quantum discreteness without Hilbert space, and reproduces curved light without spacetime. But this also predicts sharp deviations from some simple predictions of orthodox quantum theory, such as the two-stage Stern-Gerlach experiment.
