A fresh concept of space and a cosmological model based on these premises was formulated by C. Radhakrishnan by 1987. In that year, he presented these ideas before an audience of faculty and students in the Department of Physics at the Cochin University of Science and Technology (CUSAT).
1. Unity of Space-Matter Manifestations (1988)
In 1988, C. Radhakrishnan prepared an eight-page monograph entitled Unity of Space–Matter Manifestations, which he mailed to researchers working in the areas of field physics and quantum gravity, thereby initiating broader discussion. In this work, C. Radhakrishnan elaborated several foundational characteristics of what was described as “space with unique properties.”
2. Stuff and Style of the Universe (2002)
One of the suggestions that emerged during discussions surrounding the monograph was that a more comprehensive exposition of the concept would be valuable. In response, C. Radhakrishnan proceeded to develop a popular-science version of the work, which was published in November 2002 under the title Stuff and Style of the Universe.
In this book, new terms were introduced to clarify and refine the conceptual framework. The explanations were substantially expanded, and the author also ventured into broader philosophical discussions concerning life and the universe, enabled by this widened perspective.
The first Indian scientist-president, Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, expressed appreciation for the work done, and the model attracted wide attention.
3. Science India Articles (2012)
A physics article by C. Radhakrishnan containing related ideas was also published in ‘Science India’ (ISSN 0972-8287) in two issues, which came out on September 2012 and October 2012 (Vol. 15 No. 9 and Vol. 15 No. 10 respectively).
4. The Secret behind the Universe (2016)
Even after the publication of Stuff and Style of the Universe, substantial scope remained for further elaboration and refinement of the original ideas, as well as for resolving any possible inconsistencies. These ideas were all-encompassing in nature, with implications extending across every domain of physics.
From this point onward, Dr. Gopal K. R., the son of C. Radhakrishnan, joined with his father in systematically developing and corroborating the original framework through multiple branches of physics. The earlier concept of “S”— the material that space is composed of and that goes into the making of all materials —was subsequently described as the “Fabric of Space” for improved conceptual clarity in 2016. The Secret behind the Universe was published in July 2016 and incorporated the central findings of the earlier book. A second major section of the book was devoted to an in-depth study of Eastern philosophy, thereby presenting a holistic perspective on life and the universe.
Since this volume incorporated the key results of Stuff and Style of the Universe, the earlier book subsequently went out of publication.
5. Avyakta: The Fabric of Space (2017)
An article entitled “Avyakta: The Fabric of Space”, jointly written by C. Radhakrishnan and Gopal K. R., was published in January 2017 in the Prespacetime Journal (ISSN: 2153-8301), Volume 7, Issue 16. This article presented a condensed version of the physics-related content of the book The Secret behind the Universe. The entire article is available online to read or download from the journal website.
6. The Fabric of Space: Unraveling the Mysteries of Physics (2026)
Ongoing research culminated, after several years of sustained effort, in the present volume: The Fabric of Space: Unraveling the Mysteries of Physics. Drawing upon the article titled “Avyakta: The Fabric of Space,” as well as the conceptual foundations laid in earlier works, this book seeks to address the major enigmas of contemporary physics through the Fabric of Space (FS) framework. Through the FS Wave Model, explanations are advanced for spin, charge, quantization, quantum electrodynamics (QED), and quantum chromodynamics (QCD). The Higgs field and electroweak unification are also reinterpreted with new physical insights. This work presents a unification of forces and fields and bridges relativity and quantum theory within the FS framework, thereby positioning it as a Theory of Everything. The Big Bang, cosmic creation, and the early universe are retold through the FS concept, with clear explanations offered for matter-antimatter asymmetry, black holes, dark matter, and dark energy. The future evolution of the universe is likewise outlined.
In view of these substantial advances over the earlier book, The Secret behind the Universe was discontinued. As C. Radhakrishnan had authored other extensive works on Indian philosophy, the philosophical section was omitted from the present work, making this book exclusively focused on physics.
