I have a few comments:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">1) Near the end of the paper (p.10), referring to quarks in the proton you say “<span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT; font-size: 10pt;" class="">We have
already concluded that they can only fit within the proton if moving very fast, and that may be true for their De Broglie
wavelength and orbital motion, but what about their own size, their Compton wavelength size? Too light, hence too big,
and the proton would have to be a hundred times larger than it is."</span> But the radius of the quark would also decrease with its speed, probably as 1/gamma, just as the electron does as seen in high energy electron scattering experiments. If the quark's speed is 0.999c as you say, this gives a gamma of about 22.4. Quark masses in a proton are on average 3MeV each or 6 times the electron mass, so the Compton double-loop radius Rq of a resting quark, inversely proportional to the quark’s mass, would be 1/6 that of the electron’s characteristic size Ro=1.9 x 10^-13m, i.e. Rq= (1.9 x 10^-13) / 6 or about 30 x 10^-15 m for a resting quark. And for a speeding quark, R= Rq/gamma = 1.3 x 10^-15 m— nearly the proton size, so a high speed quark could probably fit (with a somewhat higher quark velocity than 0.999c, say 0.9995c with gamma=32) comfortably inside a proton.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">2) On the top of page 4 you write “ <span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT; font-size: 10pt;" class="">Historically, in 1913, the quantization using De Broglie waves was the answer to Bohr’s
postulated stability of electron orbits in his model of the Hydrogen atom."</span> De Broglie gave his integer Bohr orbit de Broglie wavelength calculations in a journal article I believe in 1923 and again in his thesis in 1924.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">3) You say on p 7 last paragraph, that the kinetic energy in a hydrogen atom is shared equally between the proton and the electron. This is I think mistaken. Their momenta and de Broglie wavelengths are equal, but the electron will have much more of the total KE based on KE = 1/2 mv^2 .</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Also there is a typo above equation 5 on page 7: “where" not “were"</div><div class=""> </div><div class=""> best regards,</div><div class=""> Richard</div><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Jul 2, 2015, at 8:44 AM, Mark, Martin van der <<a href="mailto:martin.van.der.mark@philips.com" class="">martin.van.der.mark@philips.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">David,<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">As promised, my paper.
