[General] To Infinity and Beyond: zero phase index?

[Richard Gauthier]

Hi David,
  My internally superluminal photon model has a helically circulating energy quantum with longitudinal momentum Plong= h/lambda and transverse momentum Ptrans = Plong =  h/lambda with a helical radius of R = lambda/2pi . Its forward helical angle is 45 degrees for photons of any wavelength, and its z-component of spin is R x Ptrans = lambda/2pi  x h/lambda = h/2pin = hbar . To move forward at speed c (because it is a photon) at an angle of 45 degrees REQUIRES that the photon’s energy quantum’s speed along its helical axis is c sqrt(2) for photons of any wavelength. 
   An electron composed of a circulating internally superluminal photon would be internally superluminal also.
