I have difficulty with any declaration of absoluteness in various forms such as "...cannot exist independently." A little qualification and a bit more context should be permitted. Perhaps to date, quarks have eluded measurement, and so our knowledge to date about quarks is limited. The 1/3 and 2/3 charge business violates the good sense of whole numbers. Yet, normalizing charge to eliminate partial charge might have unintended consequences as is the case for other areas of physics. The changes in individual quarks suggest yet another level of building blocks below the elementary particle level. 
While from time to time - usually after about 20 hours working straight - I might entertain the idea of using a compound pendulum with suitable high-density carrier of momentum at one end in hopes that the resulting imperfect elastic collision to smash computer (or smart phone) into many byproducts that are for the most part identifiable, one reaches a point where the byproducts are below the threshold of measurement by the limits imposed by experimental design, instrumentation, and time. 
"What's inside the quark?" may be a worthy and valued investigation. However, such an investigation would need to extend from the natural context of the zero vacuum we know and love  and proceed into the negative vacuum. 
Then again we may find the quark to be nothing more than a topological Glauber state of the Lepton family.
Best

Your work makes it much easier to see and understand these issues.  Regarding field self-organization, Maxwell’s equations define a specific self-organization of fields, that is the nature of the equations, that is one of their purposes. But they do not define any spin.  We know that EM fields exist and that they are present in photons, and other particles. It seems a small step to assume we would need to extend Maxwell’s equations to also define the cause for spin.  We know that EM fields carry momentum.  It also seems reasonable to believe that spin must be acting against (perpendicular to) the field’s longitudinal momentum.  Starting with this simple basis leads us to a host of potential answers to puzzles.  So yes I am giving fields properties which go beyond those generally accepted for EM fields, we are all proposing things which go beyond those things generally accepted. We are doing that because it is evident to us, and to most physicists, that we still do not have all the answers. And we must explore beyond what we now know and currently accept.  It seems that the strong force may also be a mutual field force which is EM in nature. So I am not excluding the strong force in the assumptions.  With the proper extension to Maxwell’s equations we also find some surprises, like the Pauli Exclusion as John W. has pointed out.  With either the quantized field approach, or the TEQ approach, we still have a remaining problem.  We do not have an adequate definition for the photon.  If a photon can be one, or many, wavelengths long, but still only contain the energy of one photon, and still only have the spin angular momentum of one photon, neither the TEQ solution, nor the quantized-field based on energy-density solution, work to create the possible range of photon configurations.  If you feel that the TEQ is more fundamental than fields, instead of being made of fields, then I guess we have come to completely different opinions on this subject. I feel that if there is something more fundamental than fields, it is very small, and closer to John Macken’s model for space.  While you may be right, I currently feel that fields are more fundamental. Principally because it seems that quantized fields can supply the answers without the “energy quantum” approach.  Regarding: “It would be interesting to see this quantum mechanical result graphically animated and to also see if a plane wave generated by the circulating TEQ charged photon model would generate the quantum wave function for an electron.”  How can I help?  Any ideas on how to approach the modeling of this? It seems I always learn something from these models.  Now about quarks.  If you smash your computer with a very large hammer and a single blow, you are not likely to come to an understanding of the undisturbed organization of the components inside a computer. With enough energy you will rearrange the components and they will tell you little of the actual undisturbed configuration. Yes we can see a different organization of the energy after collision, which can provide some insight into the nature of space and particles, but probing particles in this manner has some serious limitations.  The actual organization of energy inside of a proton or neutron is probably different than high energy collision can disclose. As Martin has pointed out, the binding forces for the proton are of necessity, quite huge.  So trying to break apart these particles to see what is inside will manifestly destroy much of the configuration information. What can we say assuredly about quarks?  They are the result of high energy collisions, they cannot exist independently. We cannot say that precisely and only 3 quarks are what make up a proton. Despite current views, we may not even be accurate if we say that there are any “quarks” inside a proton??? What if the energy of collision, combining with the energy of the particles, is what creates quarks?  Chip

Subject: Re: [General] Electron Torus  Chip,    I appreciate that what we are doing here can be approached from multiple directions. But to me it seems to be oversimplifying to think that “all forces required to create particles are EM forces", since you seem to be excluding strong nuclear forces and their associated particles like quarks and gluons by this statement. And what about gravitons (if they exist)? Also if you grant “self-organizing” properties to EM fields, you seem to be giving them properties that go beyond those generally accepted for EM fields (or not?). I don’t know if an energy quantum would be self-organizing or would require inputs from an even deeper sub-quantum level.     One reason I feel quite strongly that an energy quantum may be more fundamental that an EM field is that in my generic model for the electron, the circulating charge photon (no specific photon model is implied here) sends off plane waves corresponding to its momentum, directed along its helical trajectory. The mathematical component of these plane waves along the longitudinal direction of the charged photon’s helical motion is found to generate the quantum mechanical wave function for a free electron, with both the electron’s de Broglie wavelength and the electron's non-physical faster-than-light phase velocity c^2/v.  This is described in my article “The electron is a charged photon with the de Broglie wavelength”  at https://www.academia.edu/10740682/The_Electron_is_a_Charged_Photon_with_the_de_Broglie_Wavelength in Section 14: "Derivation of the quantum wave function for a free electron". This implies an interpretation of quantum mechanics (if this result holds for bound electrons and electrons influenced by force fields also) that the charged photon and its hidden wavelength h/(gamma mc) is “behind” quantum mechanics in a way that has not been previously proposed. Now there may be (certainly will be) other models for an energy quantum than my transluminal energy quantum model. But the idea that a helically circulating energy quantum for a charged photon (in the generic relativistic electron model) generates the quantum mechanical wave function for a free electron seems to me quite a fundamental result and worth further investigation. It would be interesting to see this quantum mechanical result graphically animated and to also see if a plane wave generated by the circulating TEQ  charged photon model would generate the quantum wave function for an electron.       Richard

In that respect they would then become energy quanta naturally.  If we start with the “energy quantum” as the foundation, then we will have to ask “what is an energy quantum?”, but if we start with fields, we define the energy quantum while solving the problem, it seems.  This, and the lack of definition for spin in Maxwell’s equations, have led me to believe that the simplest solution requires extension of Maxwell’s equations in a manner similar to John W’s work. Once this is done then the definition for the energy quantum is provided, as well as an understanding of field topology and motion.  With this approach we can see how and why energy is quantized. With such an approach we can understand the energy quantum and the particles it creates. Whether we choose to use the nomenclature “energy quantum” or we choose to refer to quantization mechanism and fields, we are describing the same thing in principal. However it is good to view this puzzle from many perspectives because that method allows us to better find any flaws in our reasonings. So I am not suggesting that you change your perspective, on the contrary, I am suggesting only that it is compatible, and synonymous in many ways, with other perspectives communicated in the group. To use an analogy, we can describe a building by starting with a brick as the most elementary part of that building, or we can describe the clay and sand and how the brick is formed and fired as the starting place. Each approach provides significant advantages in analyzing the complete picture. In the group we each have our own perspectives, we sharpen each other by challenging assumptions, and contributing ideas. But the multiple perspective are rich in helping us to have a better system view. One item that seems important is the binding force for the electron.  This issue has been a problem for more than a century in trying to understand this simple, stable, and important particle. I now think that the binding force is completely described by the correct set of field equations.  Starting from first principals and a very simple photon model, which has spin, we can see that the required forces are present but not accounted for in Maxwell’s equations. If this is the case, then it means that all forces required to create particles are EM forces, even if we do not now recognize them as such.  It also seems to show that inertia is completely an EM caused phenomenon. So when we talk about fields, and assign a finite velocity to field propagation, we arrive at a spiral structure for the spinning fields in particles.  <image001.jpg>The core of the spiral seems to be very compact, with an energy density which is much higher than other areas of the field.<image004.png> I can’t help thinking about your energy quantum when I look at these illustrations. If we consider two different spin modes for these fields we can show a topological source for charge. As John W., Martin, Vivian and I have done. The simplified transverse spin mode for a photon would be similar to:<image005.png>Where the center of spin is at the junction of the negative and positive ends of the field lines.The longitudinal center of motion is the spin axis. The “transport radius” is zero.But the simplified spin mode for a charged particle would be more like:<image006.png>Where the “transport radius” is not the same as the spin axis, but is offset so that the point of junction between the positive and negative ends of the field lines is displaced significantly from the spin axis. When we consider the momentum of the fields, and the assumed forces acting on the fields, we can see that it is possible that both of these spin modes are supported. They give the appearance of an uncharged photon and a “charged photon”. But it may be more precise to drop the photon nomenclature for the charged version because it is really no longer a photon.  Chip From: General [mailto:general-bounces+chipakins=gmail.com at lists.natureoflightandparticles.org] On Behalf Of Richard Gauthier

Subject: Re: [General] Electron Torus Chip, Martin, John D and others,   I suspect that the fundamental quantities of both spacetime and particles/fields are frequency (directly proportional to the energy of a particle and inversely proportional to time) and wavelength (inversely proportional to the  momentum of a particle and directly proportional to space). Spin is related to energy-momentum topology. Electric charge seems related to topology.  Particles with rest mass are composed of charged photons and related speed-of-light particles like charged gluons (normal gluons are electrically uncharged but have color charge while quarks have both electrical charge and color charge.) And I suspect that the energy quantum (composing both speed-of-light particles and rest-mass particles) is the unifying link between spacetime and particles/fields (and therefore quantum mechanics/QED/QCD/quantum gravity) and may be the precursor as well as the sustainer of both.     Richard

Chip: I’m blue, you’re black: As all of you know, after Relativity was introduced and adopted, the popular belief for a while, was that space was empty, and that a media of space was not required.  Now however it seems that most physicists have accepted that space is a media, with quantum attributes, and some level of energy density.  That popular belief was a cargo-cult false belief, because Einstein made it clear in his 1920  Leyden Address that space was the “aether” of general relativity. He made it clear that space was not some emptiness, but instead was a thing that is “conditioned” by a massive body such as a star. If space is a media, what would we perceive which is different from space being empty? That popular belief was a cargo-cult belief, because Einstein made it clear in his 1920  Leyden Address that space was the “aether” of general relativity, and space was not empty. Some would say there is no perceptible difference. But is that precisely true? No. Like Einstein said in 1929, a field is a state of space. If space is a media, it implies a preferred reference frame in space.  This is an item which would be difficult, or perhaps impossible to detect, but for one item. If space is a media with a preferred reference frame, then clocks in that reference frame would be the fastest clocks possible in the universe.  There’s also the CMB reference frame. It’s preferred in that it tells you your speed through the universe. And whilst it isn’t an absolute frame in the strict sense, the universe is as absolute as it gets. One thing which would alter the ability to test this is a gross frame dragging of space around massive bodies or concentrations of mass. See the asymmetric Kerr metric as a source of CP violation. It’s to do with galactic frame-dragging. If space is a media, and if frame dragging does occur It’s a popscience myth that it isn’t a medium, electromagnetic waves do not propagate because an electric wave creates a magnetic wave and vice versa. I’m confident that frame dragging does occur, and that the electron electromagnetic field is a fierce example of it. A definition of TIME is the underlying objective of this line of questions.  For I see two possibilities, one is that time is an inherent property of space and, as the current relativity teaches, a fourth dimension in our “spacetime”.  The other is that time is simply the rate at which particles can interact, caused by the fact that fields can only propagate at a finite velocity, and that we are made of particles which are circularly confined fields. I feel the first explanation is less likely because it does not show cause, it does not tell us why time is part of space, just that it is.  The second explanation is the one I currently prefer because it is a simple consequence of the nature of space and particles, it shows cause. I prefer it too, and so did Einstein. See Time Explained and A World Without Time: the forgotten legacy of Godel and Einstein.  Is time truly a fourth dimension at the lowest level of analysis of space? No. We live in a world of space and motion. Our time dimension is derived from motion. It’s a dimension in the sense of measure, not in the sense of freedom of motion.  RegardsJohn D From: General [mailto:general-bounces+johnduffield=btconnect.com at lists.natureoflightandparticles.org] On Behalf Of Chip Akins

Subject: Re: [General] Electron Torus Hi All We are working on the foundations of physics.  Studying and trying to decipher the result of experiment in a causal manner. As we do that it keeps bringing me back to the nature of space itself.  John M has made some good points about starting from the makeup of space and working our way up from there.  John D has communicated a solid and basic approach to many of the issues.  Many of us have proposed models, field formulations, and a host of other possible explanations for what we observe. As we reflect on what we have done and what we still need to do, there are some things which may still need to be addressed and answered before we can make progress in certain areas. For example, the nature of space and time, are fundamental to understanding physics.  Some of us feel we have a reasonable handle on this, and it is a very basic part of what we are doing, but I am thinking that we do not yet have it quite right. For the endeavor we have undertaken, I think close is not good enough. First I want to state clearly that I do not yet propose to have the answers to the nature of space, all I have is conjecture so far. As all of you know, after Relativity was introduced and adopted, the popular belief for a while, was that space was empty, and that a media of space was not required.  Now however it seems that most physicists have accepted that space is a media, with quantum attributes, and some level of energy density. However many of the subtle suggestions engendered during that time when it was perceived that space was empty, and much of the “foundation” of relativity is still based on there being no media which constitutes space. If space is a media, what would we perceive which is different from space being empty? Some would say there is no perceptible difference. But is that precisely true? If space is a media, it implies a preferred reference frame in space.  This is an item which would be difficult, or perhaps impossible to detect, but for one item.If space is a media with a preferred reference frame, then clocks in that reference frame would be the fastest clocks possible in the universe.  All clocks in all other inertial frames would be slower. One thing which would alter the ability to test this is a gross frame dragging of space around massive bodies or concentrations of mass. It seems that relativity has been tested with regards to the slowing of clocks with relative velocity to a precision of about 1.6% to 10% depending on which experiments you prefer. But of course these tests are at low relative velocities and only represent a narrow prat of the spectrum of tests which would be required to absolutely validate the entire curve. And an error of 1.6% is still a substantial error for this type of validation. If space is a media, and if frame dragging does occur, again it would be difficult to verify the existence of the media using clocks, depending on how much frame dragging there is. If space is a media, how can we calculate the frame dragging and quantify it? A definition of TIME is the underlying objective of this line of questions.  For I see two possibilities, one is that time is an inherent property of space and, as the current relativity teaches, a fourth dimension in our “spacetime”.  The other is that time is simply the rate at which particles can interact, caused by the fact that fields can only propagate at a finite velocity, and that we are made of particles which are circularly confined fields. I feel the first explanation is less likely because it does not show cause, it does not tell us why time is part of space, just that it is.  The second explanation is the one I currently prefer because it is a simple consequence of the nature of space and particles, it shows cause. One thing I think we must remember as we construct a physical model is that we are dealing with the fundamentals and foundations, the building blocks so to speak, and in that endeavor we will probably find instances where a phenomenon like the definition of time, or the definition of charge, or the definition of spin, is not the same at the micro level as it is at our macro observable level. If we do our job well we will discover the causes and sources of many of these types of phenomena. At levels below the causal level for any of these phenomena, the macro rules no longer apply in full. After saying that, a question would naturally arise, if time as we measure it is merely the result of the interaction of particles, how and when do we incorporate the dimension of time in our calculations? Is the development of time at such a low level that we should include it in all calculations, just as relativity teaches? Or does time come into play only at the particle level, and the finite velocity of light predominates at lower levels? Is time truly a fourth dimension at the lowest level of analysis of space? Or does it just appear to be that way from our perspectives due to the nature of our particulate construction and measurements? Any and all opinion and argument is eagerly appreciated. If you could please let me know your take on this and the reasons you feel that way I will be grateful. Chip From: General [mailto:general-bounces+chipakins=gmail.com at lists.natureoflightandparticles.org] On Behalf Of John Williamson

Subject: Re: [General] Electron Torus John D., Chip and Andrew,    Isn’t it the case that in standard physics (experimentally confirmed) the measured spin of an electron is relative to the motion of the observer of the electron, just as the observed momentum of an electron is relative to the motion of the observer of the electron? If an observer moving west to east with a relativistic velocity v1  passes a “stationary” electron (in some reference frame) , the electron has an observed momentum (when it measured) going west, and a spin either up or down (when it is measured) in the east-west direction  and a de Broglie wavelength corresponding to the relative velocity v1, while when an observer moving relativistically south to north with velocity v2 passes a “stationary" electron , the electron has an observed momentum (when it is measured) going south, a spin that is up or down (when it is measured) in the north-south direction, and a de Broglie wavelength corresponding to its relative velocity v2. (In QM,  velocity, spin and de Broglie wavelength probably can’t all be measured at the same time).  The relativistic energy-momentum equation for the electron E^2 = p^2 c^2 + m^2 c^4 applies to the electron described above when observed by two observers with two different relativistic velocities compared to the electron. I showed in my article “the electron is a charged photon with the de Broglie wavelength” that the same relativistic energy-momentum equation applies to a helically moving double-looping photon that may compose an electron, where E is the energy of the photon (the same as the total energy of the electron composed by the photon), p is the longitudinal momentum of the helically moving photon (the same as the momentum p of the electron being modeled), E/c is the total momentum of the photon along its helical path, and mc is the transverse momentum of the helically moving photon, which contributes to the electron’s spin up or spin down value hbar/2 in the case of a slow moving electron (modeled by the double-looping photon). So every electron observed to have a momentum p will in this view also have a spin hbar/2 up or down in the direction of its momentum.  Also, when a photon is Doppler shifted-due to relative motion of the light source away from or towards the observer, the observed wavelength of the photon is lengthened or shortened accordingly. Doesn’t this imply that the length of the whole photon (if it consists of a certain number of wavelengths) is also lengthened or shortened accordingly? Richard

Subject: Re: [General] Electron Torus Dear Chip,I learn something new every time. However, it may not be true.If I interpret your images properly, the fastest electrons are the longest. However, relativistic shortening should shrink the length. I had expected the electron to 'pancake' in the direction of motion. You show the opposite. Is the pancake only in the electron's frame and the appearance from our frame is one of an extended structure? If both, do they cancel and, in reality, it is still spherical?Andrew On Thu, May 21, 2015 at 7:36 PM, Chip Akins <chipakins at gmail.com> wrote:
Hi Richard So it is a bit more difficult to visualize exactly what is going on from the graphics with velocity. We increase the velocity is in steps from zero through 0.9988c. From the Z axis the illustration looks like:<image008.jpg> Showing the reduced radius with velocity. But when we look at the model slightly off axis (Z axis) we see this: <image009.jpg> So this is a set of nested electron models with different velocities, each starting from the same point (upper right of the illustration). These are drawn from an external observers frame and are not shown in the electron’s reference frame.  In the electron’s reference frame we would see closure to the trajectory, but in this reference frame, the trajectory (since it is moving) is not closed. Chip From: General [mailto:general-bounces+chipakins=gmail.com at lists.natureoflightandparticles.org] On Behalf Of Richard Gauthier

Subject: Re: [General] Electron Torus Chip,   Please correct a couple of typos in my last email. The TEQ (transluminal energy quantum) moves on the surface of a torus, not a helix. Also the first helical radius mentioned should have been Ro sqrt(2) = 1.414 Ro , not Ro sqrt(2)/2 = 1.414 Ro since sort(2)/2 = 0.707 not 1.414 .  Thanks.    Richard

I don’t understand why the electric field lines appear closed in your diagrams.     In my original resting electron model the TEQ was a circulating negative electric charge which circulated on the surface of a helix. I called the circulating TEQ a photon-like object since it was similar to my TEQ model of a photon.  I was assuming at that time that the photon in my resting electron model had spin 1, even though I had adjusted the helical radius so that the circulating TEQ generated the magnetic moment of the electron of 1 Bohr magneton, requiring a helical radius for the TEQ of Ro sqrt(2)/2 = 1.414 Ro which created the spindle torus in my model . So this was actually neither a spin 1 photon (whose radius for a resting electron would have been 2Ro, or a spin 1/2 photon, whose radius for a resting electron would be Ro, as in the 3D models that you and I generated from the moving electron equations I proposed. Since I currently prefer the model of an electron composed of a spin 1/2 circulating photon, this doesn’t generate the electron’s magnetic moment of 1 Bohr magneton. But it generates a magnetic moment more than 1/2 Bohr magneton which would be produced by a charge circulating at light speed in a simple double loop of radius Ro. I haven’t done the calculation for the magnetic moment generated by my spin 1/2 photon model of the electron, but I suspect that it would be 0.707 Bohr magneton (just a guess at this point). The calculation of this magnetic moment from the TEQ trajectory equations for a charged TEQ in the spin 1/2 photon model is relatively straightforward though.     By the way, have you looked at the side view of the actual TEQ trajectory at various values of v/c of the electron in the spin 1/2 photon moving-electron model that I proposed (and that you programmed and graphed in 3D to show how the model size changes as 1/gamma at various values of v/c)? The side view of the TEQ trajectory for a moving electron contains some surprises, at least for me. I thought that at high values of v/c (say 0.99 or 0.999) the TEQ would just appear from the side view to rotate helically around its reducing and increasingly more linear helical trajectory  (whose trajectory reduces as 1/(gamma^2), with the TEQ’s helical radius reducing as 1/gamma. But that’s apparently not what happens. Could you check this with your 3D program?       Richard

Subject: Re: [General] Electron Torus Chip,   Perfect! It would also be good to have the pair of tori seen an an angle from above their ‘equator’ to get a more 3-D quality.      Richard

Subject: Re: [General] Electron Torus Hi Chip,  The radius of the circle in the horn torus (spin 1/2 photon model) should visually be (since it is actually) 1/2 of the radius of the circle in the spindle torus (spin 1 photon model) -- the spin 1/2 photon model is smaller than the spin 1 photon model. Thanks! And could you perhaps show the energy quantum trajectory in a different color that the torus background so the trajectory stands out better?    Richard On Mon, May 4, 2015 at 10:42 AM, Chip Akins <chipakins at gmail.com> wrote:

Subject: Re: [General] position Chip and all,   Here are some equations that relate to the modeling of a circulating photon as an electron. The second and third set include my own model of the photon. The first set doesn’t require a particular model for the photon, except as mentioned below. The first model is the one that generates the de Broglie wavelength as explained in my article mentioned below. 1. Here is the set of parametric equations for the helical trajectory of double-looping photon that models a free electron, and  whose circular radius for a resting electron is Ro=hbar/2mc. The speed of the photon along this trajectory is always c. The longitudinal or z-component of the photon’s speed is the electron’s velocity v along the z-axis. The frequency of the photon around the helical axis is proportional to the circulating photon/electron's energy E=gamma mc^2. The distance of the photon’s helical trajectory from the z-axis for an electron whose speed is v, is proportional to 1/gamma^2. This equation is in my article “The electron is a charged photon with the de Broglie wavelength”. This equation does not include a particular model of the photon, but assumes that the photon follows the relations c=f lambda, E=hf and p=h/lambda. Both helicities of the helical trajectory are given._______________________________________________
