Abstract
This work introduces the M‑Depth equation (T‑E‑P‑T‑H depth equation) as a candidate unifying relation connecting the large‑scale standing‑wave structure of the universe, observer‑dependent effects, and gravitational phenomena. The equation is constructed to describe the breakdown and collapse of a cosmological standing wave in response to changes in an effective observer parameter, and to allow, in specific regimes, for modifications of local gravitational acceleration. A preliminary experimental concept using two toroidal objects counter‑rotating at four revolutions per minute is outlined as a potential testbed for gravity‑modification signatures and for probing possible anti‑gravity–like behavior. The aim of this paper is to define the equation, clarify its physical assumptions, and propose measurable predictions that could be subjected to independent verification.

1. Introduction
   Modern physics contains several deep open questions concerning the unification of gravitation with quantum theory, the role of the observer in physical measurement, and the global structure of the universe. The M‑Depth equation is proposed as an attempt to address these questions in a single mathematical framework. The intention is not to replace general relativity or quantum field theory in their tested domains, but to suggest an overarching relation that reproduces known limits while extending them into regimes involving cosmological standing waves and observer‑dependent boundary conditions.
2. Definition of the M‑Depth Equation
   In this section, the M‑Depth equation is presented explicitly, with all symbols, constants, and variables clearly defined. Each term should be related to a specific physical quantity, such as metric components, energy densities, effective observer parameters, or standing‑wave amplitudes. The dimensional analysis of the equation is provided to ensure internal consistency, and limiting cases are derived to show how the equation reduces to familiar expressions in appropriate regimes.
3. Conceptual Framework
   The conceptual basis of the M‑Depth equation is the idea that the universe can be modeled as a global standing wave whose stability and collapse are influenced by an effective observer value. Within this picture, observation is treated as a physical interaction that can alter boundary conditions on the standing wave, leading to transitions between quasi‑stable configurations. The equation is constructed so that changes in the observer parameter modify the effective gravitational potential and can, in principle, generate regions where the net gravitational effect is reduced or reversed relative to standard expectations.
4. Experimental Proposal: Counter‑Rotating Toroidal System
   To explore potential gravity‑modification effects predicted by the M‑Depth equation, a specific experimental configuration is proposed. The setup consists of two toroidal masses or field‑generating devices mounted coaxially and driven to rotate in opposite directions at approximately four revolutions per minute. The relevant parameters of the system, including mass distribution, radius, rotational speed, and spacing, are chosen to maximize the predicted effect according to the equation. A measurement protocol is outlined in which local gravitational acceleration is monitored with high‑precision sensors before, during, and after rotation, with careful control of vibration, electromagnetic interference, and thermal drift.
5. Predicted Signatures and Validation Strategy
   The M‑Depth equation yields quantitative predictions for how the effective gravitational field should change in the vicinity of the counter‑rotating toroidal system. These predictions include the expected magnitude and spatial profile of any reduction or reversal of apparent weight, expressed as deviations from standard gravitational acceleration. Additional cosmological predictions related to the timing and nature of standing‑wave breakdown and universal collapse are described, along with how these might be constrained by existing astronomical observations. Validation requires that the model reproduce established results in well‑tested domains while providing clear, falsifiable deviations that can be targeted experimentally.
6. Discussion
   The implications of a successful validation of the M‑Depth equation would be profound, affecting the understanding of gravitation, cosmology, and the role of the observer in fundamental physics. At the same time, extraordinary claims necessitate stringent experimental standards, detailed error analysis, and independent replication by multiple groups. Potential alternative explanations for any observed anomalies, such as unmodeled mechanical, electromagnetic, or environmental effects, are considered and strategies for ruling them out are proposed.
7. Conclusion
   The M‑Depth equation, introduced here by Marcus Hoyt Smith Jr., is put forward as a speculative but testable framework aiming to link observer effects, cosmological standing waves, and possible gravity‑modification phenomena. By clearly stating the equation, its assumptions, and concrete experimental tests using counter‑rotating toroidal systems, this work is intended to enable critical review and empirical assessment by the wider scientific community.
