mso-ansi-language:EN-GB">This is the semi-classical calculation from the (now more than 20 year old) model. The fact that a semi-classical calculation is so close - and assuming (as it does that) the electromagnetic
field is all concentrated at precisely the eye of the torus (which it most certainly is not) - is amazing. As I say in the latest paper this is the MINIMUM charge. As one moves from a line distribution ( still a singularity – though not as bad as a point singularity)
to something more extended it increases (quite slowly) through the charge observed. Fine .. one could presume it expanded as a Gaussin about the eye and use this to FIX the size but, as Martin said in an earlier thread – so what? IT cannot be a Gaussian as
there is simple more room outside the eye than inside .... To get this properly right one needs to calculate what that distribution should be -that requres a solution of the full set of coupled linear differential equations - numerical modelling as in the
Maxwell equations - but harder. Numereical modelling of the self-confined field equatuions Field equations which make their own box – which one also has to calculate self-consistently. This is not easy and one cannot look it up in a book- yet! Remember there
was over a decade, with all the worlds best scientists on the problem, from the Bohr model to solutions of the hydrogen atom in quantum mechanics. To get the simplest corrections took the whole of them another decade or so. Some of the greatest minds alive
are still trying to puzzle through some of this a century later.</span><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman";

color:blue;mso-ansi-language:EN-GB">Dear Chip. Thank you. I have always been at least a little
bit wrong, and always will be. Let us say we are both a little bit wrong huh? I am sure that there remain things that are "wrong" with the new theory as well - just not the things you are currently worried about. In particular I think that the underlying maths
should be left and not right handed. I fear the only way to find out is to do a couple of hundred years man years of work. A couple of hundred years, that is, where the "men" are the calibre of Einstein and Dirac (and Schroedinger and de Broglie and so on
...) all those guys who started to piece together the solutions to (the far simpler) quantum mechanics in the (decades of the) early years.

color:blue;mso-ansi-language:EN-GB">Even on simple old QM everyone is still arguing (mostly
ignorantly) about "what it means" a hundred years later! Just look at the recent threads! All of those arguments I have seen a hundred times before, reflected in many published papers. If you want to scare yourself on the subject of the major discussion on
this forum recently just look at the wider literature ( Richard Gill is a good starting point on non-locality for a critique of nearly everyone else – but his base understanding is no better – was at Utrecht, now at Leiden). Everyone in this field cites poor
old dead Bell (justifying this or that contradictory position as coming as works from the oracle-master), but he was a mystified as the rest too. Just try reading it in the original! I agree with Al here – most of the discussion is just uninformed. I do not
think any of it really matters anyway – experiment does what it does and we will only get through it when we REALLY understand QM – at which point the whole field becomes redundant anyway. My impression is that most workers in the field do not even get ordinary
QM properly.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Times;mso-bidi-font-family:

all the answers. It is not so that one refines and refines, writes and re-writes possible routes to the truth of the basis equations and then Eureka – once one has them (I hope!), all the solutions fall out like hitting the jackpot. It is easy to write down
things hard to solve using Newton’s laws (the three-body problem!). At the moment there are still only me and Martin working on this - and we have to squeeze this in around day jobs that take most of our time (and more and more of, in my case). I am no mathematician
- I have little or no skill in even analytic methods, let alone in finite element methods (the kind of thing needed to find particular SOLUTIONS of the new equations - with the distributions – needed to calculate such things as the charge exactly). This is
hard and I am getting old. It has taken decades of my life just to get to this point. I need help!</span></p>

It has the same structure as the Dirac equation, but fixes the problems with it to do with the mass and the (too simple) introduction of a merely U(1) electromagnetic field. It derives, and underpins the basis of QED. Given this, I must say I am surprised
(and a bit disappointed) there has been little or no discussion about this, but just some chat about long-standing problems rooted in simple relativity and quantum mechanics.

</span><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif; color:black"><br>
At the same time, this won't happen from the photonic electron but require an understanding of quarks and perhaps neutrinos and gluons. And that conjecture is based on the assumption that we know the essentials of elementary particles to do so.

The simple fact is that under certain conditions E and M are closely coupled. There are two views that are possible: EM and E&M. EM is one, united and inseparable. The other is that E&M are to be treated as separable and closely coupled under certain conditions

Yes they both can. Magnetic monopole is energetically excluded (it just decays to an electric monopole). Also the Dirac equation says nothing about either charge or magnetic monopole charge (where my new equations do). Have you studied the Dirac model? Physical

of a ToE. The comment was trying to suggest that the inability of a model to explain an experiment within the domain that the model is supposed to apply is cause for rejection. A “null” result is a “no test” done result. For example, Galileo tried to find
parallax in stars to support the heliocentric model. He had a null result that resulted in some trouble with the Church. More accurate equipment in the 1830s finally saw parallax and heliocentricism was accepted. The same is true in the case of the Michelson–Morley<b id="yiv6145355034yui_3_16_0_1_1447009445155_2570">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif; color:black">(see also John W comment where he agrees with David) The deviations from expectaion in experiments have lead to finding several emergent properties of
nature. Indeed, deviation for expectation causes the postulate of hidden variables rather than suggesting lack of a proper model. Further, the finding of data that is poorly explained is an indication of the need for a new model. Sometime the new data is so
radical, a complete rethink is needed. Until that is done, ad hoc additions are made such as Dark Energy, Dark Mass, inflation, etc and models become very complex. So, I suggest, simplification is needed but simplification usually requires redefinition of
what is basic. </span></p>

don’t “guide”. However, I suggest (and I think Bohm does, too) the the pilot wave is real and the \Psi ^* \Psi is a characteristic of the pilot wave and not a probability function. The nest step is to suggest what the \Psi^* is in reality. Photons need a property
of coherence for diffraction to occur. The nature of coherence is unknown. I suggest the Bohm interpretation is suggesting photons do require guidance to the screen if an interference pattern is noted. At least in my model pilot waves exist (are real) for
both electrons and photons. </span></p>

time. At any special point there could be scalar or vector or tensor values mathematically. However, I like the scalar model because the forces can be vectors (tensor) through divergence. The electromagnetic comments beg the question “What are the basic constituents
of the universe? Simpler but yet complete is better. I suggest a continuous and matter like Bohm. What are your basic? I’m left with explaining electromagnetism with the interaction of the 2 components.<span class="yiv6145355034">
