His poor stretched brain trying to recover from the rigourous tests to which it was subjected yesterday. To keep myself amused while the poor man recovers I am cleaning the kitchen and re-reading de Broglies thesis.<br><br>I though you might like me to share this with you (not the kitchen bit I suppose).<br><br>You can find an English translation here:<br><br><a href="http://nonloco-physics.0catch.com/ldb_the.pdf">http://nonloco-physics.0catch.com/ldb_the.pdf</a><br><br>This was not available until relatively recently in English, but if you can find a copy in French and have enough fluency to read it, I would recommend that you do so. This translation is ok on the maths, but does not do the beauty and poetry of de Broglies French any justice at all. His French is scrumptious, self-deprecating and yet magnificent. There is a huge amount of the subtlety "lost in translation". I had a look for a french copy but did not find one. If any of you do please copy me a link!<br><br>In this you will see, to your lasting enlightenment and utter joy, the story of where quantum mechanics was forged from a proper consideration of the theory of relativity.<br><br>For the initial, central statement of teh problem to be considered look at Eqs 1.1.6 and 1.1.7 For an analogy of how to visualise the phase-wave harmony see the top of page 10. Do not take this analogy too literally, however, as the analogic system absolutely does not transform relativistcally properly. It is a good place to get started with envisagind the two waves, one "slower" than lightspeed "one "faster" than lightspeed but both doing this precisely because, in one frame and one frame alone (their proper frame), they are both precisely lightspeed.<br><br>This stuff is absolutely gorgeous. It was crafted 97 years ago. If I had my way it would be taught in every undergraduate degree in first year, after relativity but before quantum mechanics. Indeed- i would teach it at school instead of the low level and boring stuff they do at the moment. My six year old asked (he asks I lot) I answered. Now if I try to talk about it he says "I know dad I know". It should be mothers milk for physicists -Instead it is lost as it is taught virtually no-where. Even the French CERN guys had not heard of it. Oh dear! <br><br>If he can get it so can all of you.<br><br>Just look at the way de Broglie treats experiment as well. As something to be explained and understood. Currently, QCD asks experiment to parameterise the values of the starting point of its (many) parameters. To "verify" not to test. QCD, and the quark-parton model on which it is based (See O'Fallon and Krish in earlier email). Sails on unperturbed. This is because the theory IS Non perturbative (i.e.cannot calculate anything useful). The (most excellent and best and brightest of Europe) are reduced to slaves of the theory, working, not on physics, but on some small element of a simulation of QCD, or on developing the machine, or dealing with the data aquisition - each perorming a tiny fraction of the total task and all thinking - this is not what I came into physics for. I know - I was there. I got out.<br><br>Read further ... after some maths he gets to pretty much the only thing that survives of this magnificent work in the minds of most practicing physicists. Eq 2.6.13 - the de Broglie relation. The point where quantum mechanics was created.<br><br>Read and enjoy!<br><br>John.<o:p></o:p></span></p><div><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:center'><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'><hr size=2 width="100%" align=center></span></div><div id=divRpF443722><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black'> General [general-bounces+john.williamson=glasgow.ac.uk@lists.natureoflightandparticles.org] on behalf of Mark, Martin van der [martin.van.der.mark@philips.com]<br><b>Sent:</b> Saturday, March 14, 2015 9:30 PM<br><b>To:</b> Nature of Light and Particles - General Discussion<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [General] Velocity of the Coulomb Field</span><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Hi all, </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>in addition to what I said before about the weak and strong force and topology, I should put it into a little more context.</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>In QED, the electromagnetic force is carried by photons which are exchanged.

The reason is that it is rest massless. It’s statistics are special too, and depend on the kind of light source you are looking at, for example: blackbody radiation, laser beam or entangled pair. <i>A coherent state, as output by a laser far above threshold has Poissonian statistics yielding random photon spacing; while a thermal light field has super-Poissonian statistics and yields bunched photon spacing.

Planck’s constant and spin is a clear observable in the microscopic realm of EM fields. Can anyone show how Planck’s constant is fully defined in, or directly derived from, Maxwell’s equations? Even in the full set of 20 equations from the 1863 to 1865 publications? If not, then it follows clearly that the field equations are incomplete. Our task then is to suggest a complete version of the field equations. One that agrees with experiment.

I think I wore him out with a very long session last night. I will have a go at beginning to take the discussion forwards, and suggesting some places to look. <br><br>I'm please you think that this process (of discussing) "the photonic electron is the basis for "self-consistently redefining the foundations of modern physics." That is exactly what Martin and I have been trying to do for the last quarter century or so and it is so relaxing to have a few more of you to share the fun with. <br><br>We need to remember, in doing this, that there is much which is good in physics as it stands- and anything we come up with must be consistent with those existing theories which have served us well (which is what Martin was trying to say in his very terse message yesterday) - even if they have nor proven entirely consistent with experiment in every area.<br><br>If there is disagreement with experiment, any new paradigm should fix those disagreements AND show how this moves seamless to an agreement where those theories are valid.<br><br>Now this is really hard, of course. Free imagination- but strongly constrained by what we know to be right (the body of well-founded and well-understood experiment) and guided by what we alread know explains large areas of that experiment well- such things as relativity, Maxwell, QM, QED, NIW and so on ...<br><br>The currencies in the standard view (by which I mean within the standard model) is that the concepts of "fermion" and "boson" are so important, for example - that the fact that the proton is a fermion means that the quarks in quantum chromo-dynamics (QCD), of which it supposed to be composed, must also be fermions.<br><br>This view is, however, strongly challenged by experimental high energy physics. See O Fallon et. al. Phys. Rev. (1977). Yes 1977!. Also the, very accessible, explanation of this by the group spokesman, Krish, in Scientific american May 1979. This is an excellent article "on the spin of the proton". It shows, indeed, thath the quarks as they are in the standard model - as fermions, simply cannot exist. They are simply inconsistent with experiment. This situation, as of 2015, still stands. Please, everyone, have a look at these - especially the scientific american one as this gets properly to the underlying point. It has been a very long time since the fermionic and bosonic statistics ceased being a verb or an adverb and became seen as being an absolute noun. The Experimental evidence, however, is simply against "quarks" being fermions. Eat this!<br><br>Also, I have heard stated that the statistics of light in a laser is not Bose but Boltzmann. This is your field some of you guys .. true or false?<br><br>In HEP the photon is seen as being a boson, but a peculiar one it that it has only two states as a free particle (seen as left and right (but opposite - right and left in optics convention). What is it? Boson or 2/3 boson?<br><br>Discuss!<br><br>Cheers, John </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><div><div style='margin-bottom:10.0pt'><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:center'><span style='color:black'><hr size=2 width="100%" align=center></span></div></div><div id=divRpF775051><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black'> General [general-bounces+john.williamson=glasgow.ac.uk@lists.natureoflightandparticles.org] on behalf of Andrew Meulenberg [mules333@gmail.com]<br><b>Sent:</b> Saturday, March 14, 2015 9:21 AM<br><b>To:</b> Nature of Light and Particles - General Discussion; Andrew Meulenberg<br><b>Cc:</b> P.G.

So, if that is the only experimental basis, then I am not convinced. I believe that the neutron is a proton plus a deep-Dirac-level (DDL) electron that is stabilized by the presence of another proton and the exchange forces between them from the bound electron. [The DDLs are predicted by the anomalous solution of the Dirac equations and, if they exist, then the spin-spin coupling of the proton and DDL electron is so strong that the hyperfine splitting of these levels may be in the MeV range.] <br><br>If this is the case, then the deepest (but highest-energy) DDL, if populated, contains an electron that is orbiting within the proton and is strongly interacting with the proton's quarks and their EM fields. This of course leads to speculation of what quarks really are.
