ABSTRACT: I consider a statistical mechanical model for black holes as atoms of spacetime with the partition function sum taken over area eigenvalues as given by loop quantum gravity. I propose a unified structure for matter and spacetime by applying the area eigenvalues to a black hole composite model for quarks and leptons. Gravitational baryon number’s non-conservation mechanism is predicted. Argument is given for unified field theory based on gravitational and electromagnetic interactions only. The standard model of non-Abelian gauge interactions is briefly discussed.
