Hi Richard

Thought you might find this video interesting.

I have been working on exploring the field (wave) structures which would yield the elementary charge and measured magnetic moment for the electron while exhibiting a spherical set of fields.  This is one of the forms which seem to fit this set of goals.

It is one Compton wavelength with a double loop, and rotating in the x, y plane at c.

Hello Al and Albrecht and all,

    Al’s paper No. 11 is a nice summary of several wave-related options for interpreting quantum mechanics: 

1) the Copenhagen complementarity/duality interpretation having abstract quantum wave functions that through Psi*Psi predict statistically the location, momentum and other observable attributes of a particle or particles, and having the de Broglie relationship for an electron built into these quantum wave functions to help predict statistically the particle's diffraction/scattering/interference/double-slit properties, 

2a) de Broglie’s original pilot wave approach that has a physical guiding pilot wave closely associated with and guiding a particle, and where the electron’s de Broglie matter-waves/phase-waves emanate from the kernel oscillator of the electron, 

2b) the later de Broglie/Bohm interpretation of QM which has  a localized particle closely associated with a non-local quantum potential that guides the particle’s motion using distant information (such as the location of 2 slits) found in the surroundings, and which predicts the same statistical particle properties as the Copenhagen description and 

3) the Stochastic Electrodynamics (SED) approach where background electromagnetic waves interact with a dipole (or multipolar) particle to produce a standing wave that, when in relative motion, generates the de Broglie wavelength by dipole-multipole/background-wave interactions. 

As Al describes,  approaches (1) and (2 a & b) are problematical -- in (1) because of the well-known measurement problem (how to describe the collapse of the quantum wave function for a particle if and when this collapse occurs),  in (2a) because it is not clear and sometimes contradictory quantitatively how the pilot wave can guide the particle, and in (2b) because the Bohm quantum potential guiding the particle (since it is derived from the Schrodinger equation) has as its main motivation the generation of the QM statistical predictions of the Schrodinger equation without the measurement problem associated with wave-function collapse in (1).

The approach describing the electron as helically circulating spin-1/2 charged photon generating the de Broglie wavelength is quite distinct from these above approaches as to how the de Broglie wavelength and matter waves are generated. In the charged photon approach, the charged photon’s speed, frequency, energy, wavelength and momentum relations are all associated with de Broglie's proposed relationship E=hf = gamma mc^2 for a moving electron and with E = hf,    p = h/lambda   and c = f lambda   for a photon. Unlike de Broglie’s approach where pilot phase waves having the relativistic de Broglie wavelength h/(gamma mv) are generated directly from the oscillating electron’s mass kernel,  the helically-circulating charged photon is proposed to first generate quantum plane waves with wavelength h/(gamma mc) as the charged photon helically circulates. These quantum plane waves intersect the helical axis (the path of the modeled moving electron) to generate the electron’s relativistic de Broglie matter waves, which in the non-relativistic Schrodinger equation picture correspond to the wave equation of a free electron. In the Bohm approach the particle associates with and is informed by the quantum potential to generate the electron’s diffraction properties involving the de Broglie wavelength, while in  the Copenhagen interpretation, the particle description is complimentary to the quantum wave-function description, and the source of the de Broglie wavelength is unspecified except mathematically in the formal QM equations. In the SED approach, it is the interaction with background electromagnetic waves with the particle oscillator that generates the de Broglie wavelength.

So the charged-photon approach to modeling the electron suggests a different interpretation for the generation of the de Broglie wavelength, which is fundamental to describing the wave-particle nature of particles with rest mass, and forms a basis of quantum mechanics.  Describing an electron as a circulating charged photon, suggests that the if the electron is a new variety of photon with many of a photon’s properties but some differences also, the problem of why the electron has wavelike properties may be nearing a solution, but the problem of understanding (rather than just postulating) why the photon has wave-particle properties still remains. 

with best regards,

     Richard

Hi Al,

thank you for the reference to your paper.  I think that it is an interesting contribution. However I need some more details in order to fully and correctly understand it.

1.) Is it correct that your deduction of the de Broglie wavelength is based on the understanding that there exists a background of EM-waves? And that it needs this understanding?

Al:  Yes, but I do not see that as an ontological fact as much as a convenient summary of the totality of interactions with the remaining charges in the universe.  (Maybe you've picked up by now that at a fundamental level I do not accept the concepts of "photon"  or "E&M" as valid final discriptions or models for the totality of all possible gaussian (1/r^2) WITH DELAY between ALL extant charges.  Photons and E&M waves are approximations, albeit very useful ones.)  If one choses to live with this assumtion, i.e., the existence of this background, which is, BTW, identical with that deduced from QM. as it stands, then the energy density at each point in space divergerges, just like "2nd QM "quantum vacuum"!  To get around this objection I have some ideas, still a bit raw and unwritten up.

2.) The sequence of your equations (1) to (4) is too compact for me to make it understandable, missing e.g. a definition of k0.  Any chance to have it more detailed?

Al: Don't over interpret it, just redo it yourself with whatever notation you like.  The description is meant to be definitive.  The math is atmospherics for the paper.  But, k_0  = omega_0/c where the omega is for the resonant wave in the particles rest frame.  It turns out, as argued lower in the paper, this does not really matter which omega, or how many (e.g., multipole interaction, etc.), even an infinite number (point charge), they all get modualted by the deBroglie wave.  Again, this is the final, average effect, not an ontologically precise deal.  QM, after all, is about averages, relabeled "expectations."  Thinking otherwise leadds to endless logic-traps.

Al: Hope this helps,  best Al

Thanks and best regards
Albrecht

Hi All:

In paper No. 11 on www.nonloco-physics.0catch.com <http://www.nonloco-physics.0catch.com/>   I published some ideas on the origin and nanture of deBroglie waves.  Seems to me some of the objections and obscurities mentioned below are delt with therein.  Take a look, see what you think.  

ciao,  Al

Hello Richard (and all),

thank you, Richard, for your informations. You find my answers and comments in your text.

However I see here two general problems which should be reviewed by all.

1.) The fact that the de Broglie wave regarding its definition and its use is not Lorentz-invariant. So it is incompatible with our physical understanding since 1905.

2.) If the photon is seen as the ingredient of the electron, we need a much clearer definition and understanding what the photon is and what its effects are in detail (like the wave front emitted). Otherwise there are too many insufficiently defined situations as visible in the discussion further down. -  And clearly we do not get any help from quantum mechanics for this, after Heisenberg has stated that it is completely useless to look into an elementary particle, and the physical community has accepted this since that time.
