Description
Summary:We present a quaternion representation of quantum mechanics that allows its ontological interpretation. The correspondence between classical and quaternion quantum equations permits one to consider the universe (vacuum) as an ideal elastic solid. Elementary particles would have to be standing or soliton-like waves. Tension induced by the compression and twisting of the elastic medium would increase energy density, and as a result, generate gravity forcing and affect the wave speed. Consequently, gravity could be described by an index of refraction.
