<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Martin,<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">   Thanks for sending an advance draft of your first paper. I have a few comments:<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><![if !supportLists]><span style="mso-list:Ignore">1)<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">     
</span></span><![endif]>Near the end of the paper (p.10), referring to quarks in the proton you say “<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRomanPSMT","serif"">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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:red">Very good question. First of all I am taking the point of view of conventional physics here, and hence I must be ignorant about quarks themselves perhaps being like light-speed knots as well. But since that notion
 is seeping into the paper through the abstract and earlier sections, you are right and I also have to explain it from that point of view. Now there are two possibilities:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2"><![if !supportLists]><span style="color:red"><span style="mso-list:Ignore">a)<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">     
</span></span></span><![endif]><span style="color:red">The quark is like the Williamson-van der Mark electron, it is not knotted and may interact in a point-like fashion as indicated in the 1997Ann Fond L De Broglie paper. Then it will show the behavior you
 indicate: for its head-on interaction it seems to have shrunk to a small size.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2"><![if !supportLists]><span style="color:red"><span style="mso-list:Ignore">b)<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">     
</span></span></span><![endif]><span style="color:red">The quark is a knot of light. Now it there will be extra stresses when one lobe will be pulled in head-on interactions and no point-like interaction will occur. A proton has a real size associated to it:
 its charge radius, so then will the quark have a real size. This size will not scale as that for a photon, so this ruled out.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-18.0pt;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2"><![if !supportLists]><span style="color:red"><span style="mso-list:Ignore">c)<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">     
</span></span></span><![endif]><span style="color:red">The quark is just a lump of some mostly non-electromagnetic basic stuff. Then its interaction doesn’t scale like that of a photon either. Ruled out.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:red">All of these possibility a), b) and c) are already excluded in the paper based on the ratio of kinetic energy and total energy, but suppose I made a mistake in my estimate and there is still just enough energy left
 to make possibility a) true. Then you should realize that relativity does not realy make things shrink, it only makes things look to have shrunk in your frame, in the direction of motion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:red">What I mean is best illustrated in the following way. Consider a quite heavy nucleus with many protons and neutrons together. Their distance
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_force">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_force</a></span><span style="color:#1F497D">
</span><span style="color:red">in a nucleus is quite similar to the charge radius: 0.7-1.0 fm, which I call the size of the proton. Now if the quarks would be a 100 times larger, the proton would be too, and so would the nucleus have to be. In possibility a),
 only a head-on interaction process would make them look small. This interaction between quarks of one nucleon and another is not taking place, see  the remark on the bag model of the nucleus and non-fusion of the nucleon membrane.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:red">In relativity, objects do not really shrink, and usually do not even show it laterally to the direction of motion. It is all a matter of perspective (pun intended).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:red">You see, it is not easy or obvious, it takes quite some text to explain. This means, at least in this case, that it is a good question you posed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:red">I am not sure how to improve the paper regarding this point… leaving out the remark about the Compton wavelength size is one possibility….<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">2) On the top of page 4 you write “  <span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRomanPSMT","serif"">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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:red">Yes I agree that this may be confusing since  De Broglie came later than Bohr. I should formulate this a little better. Bohr just postulated the stability, then
 came the explanation. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">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 .<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:red">This is what I thought too, originally, but the equations tell another story, I will look at it again to make sure I didn’t make some mistake though…..can you find it? It doesn’t matter for the message of the paper
 but whatever I say, it should be correct.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Protons and electrons are built from a continuous light-speed circulation of energy. That energy must take part in at least the electromagnetic interaction. Perhaps it is just  knotted light? In any case, quarks, gluons, strings, super-symmetrical particles,
