About the TSM2 Institute for Cosmology
The TSM2 Institute for Cosmology is a Public Company Limited by Guarantee, incorporated in Queensland, Australia, (Australian Company Number (ACN) 694 568 584). For the purpose of establishing and maintaining an independent, transparent, and standards-based registry for cosmological research.
The Institute was formed to address a structural gap in modern cosmology: the absence of a neutral, auditable system for recording, testing, revising, and preserving cosmological claims independent of institutional affiliation, narrative-driven review, or consensus-based filtering.
It operates as an infrastructure body — not as a journal, funding agency, or advocacy group.
Legal Status and Governance
The Institute is formally incorporated under Australian corporate law as a not-for-profit entity.
It operates under a Constitution that defines:
- Governance structure
- Director responsibilities
- Membership provisions
- Conflict-of-interest standards
- Transparency obligations
For full transparency, the following documents are publicly available:
- Certificate of Incorporation (PDF)
- Constitution (PDF)
Purpose
The primary purposes of the Institute are to:
- Provide a publicly accessible registry for cosmological submissions, including declarations of originality, theoretical frameworks, analytical papers, and empirical exhibits.
- Apply a defined, criteria-based compliance framework that distinguishes eligibility for structured testing from validation, endorsement, or acceptance.
- Preserve full historical provenance, ensuring that original submissions, revisions, upgrades, and rejections remain permanently traceable.
- Enable structured comparison between competing cosmological models based on logic, assumptions, defined mechanisms, scale consistency, and falsifiability.
- Support the evolution of cosmological understanding through correction, refinement, and clarification without penalizing revision or dissent.
Foundational Framework
The Institute’s reference framework is defined by the Core Tenets of the Thwaites Theory of the Cosmos
Core Tenets – TSM – Feb 2026
and supported by the Core Equations of TSM2.1
Core Equations – TSM – Feb 2026
.
These documents establish a mechanically governed cosmological model grounded in:
- Energy–mass density
- Thermodynamic regulation
- Universal Temporal Sequencing
- Orbital mechanics
- Closed-cycle energy dynamics
The Institute maintains these documents as reference standards while preserving space for competing and alternative submissions within the registry.
Institutional Position
The Institute does not determine truth.
It determines structural compliance.
All submissions are evaluated against defined analytical criteria and classified transparently.
The registry remains open to revision, challenge, refinement, and comparison.
