contents <p>This booklet develops the structure of the proton within the ACORN curvature–closure framework.<br>The ACORN programme proposes that physical objects are not fundamental particles, but stable <br>closures of curvature in an intrinsic recurrence domain. Within this setting, quantities normally<br>treated as independent inputs—such as mass ratios, charge, and electromagnetic coupling—are<br>instead derived consequences of closure structure.<br>The present work focuses on the first nontrivial structured closure beyond the electron: the<br>proton.<br>Starting from the frozen ACORN Canon, we show that a specific closure configuration naturally<br>produces:<br>• the proton–electron mass ratio,<br>• the equality of electron and proton charge magnitude,<br>• the neutron as a defective near-closure,<br>• and the fine structure constant as a consequence of sparse cubic mode coupling.<br>The development proceeds entirely within the intrinsic ACORN domain, without the introduction<br>of external particle models or free parameters.<br>This booklet is part of the ACORN modular series. Each booklet follows a specific route through<br>the canonical framework, isolating one structural component of the overall theory.<br>Here, that component is the proton.</p>
