Quantum Atom Theory 2008 - 2026

 

This theory explains a simple three dimensional process of energy exchange that forms our ever-changing world. The Universe is a continuum with the mathematics of Quantum Mechanics representing the physics of time with Classical physics representing processes over a ‘period of time’ as in Newton’s differential equations. We can think of the atoms of the Periodic Table as standing waves in time, with the absorption and emission of light forming the passage of time. Whenever there is an exchange of light photon energy, our three-dimensional temporal world changes slightly. When this happens Photon energy transforms potential energy PE of what might happen into the kinetic Eₖ=½mv² energy of what is actually happening. Therefore we have light as a wave with particle characteristics as causality unfolds with an uncertain ∆×∆pᵪ≥h/4π future coming into existence moment by moment, quantum by quantum. The geometrical aspect of this process can be based on Huygens’ Principle of 1670, that says: “Every point on a wave front has the potential for a new spherical 4πr² wave” Each point on the curvature of the wave front forms the potential for a new photon ∆E=hf of energy, a new oscillation or vibration as the future comes into existence. We have to square the radius r² of the sphere 4πr² because the process in unfolding on the spherical surface. Therefore we have the speed of light squared c² we have the charge of the electron squared e² and the probability wave function is squared Ψ². In theoretical physics we have the Planck constant h representing a minimum quantity in the fabric of space and time. This is formed by the centre of the sphere being a constant, with the radius r² squared being a constant relative to the spherical surface. The 2π represents circular geometry that is formed by the spherical symmetry with a constant πr² relationship between the radius of the circle and its area. The interior of the sphere 4πr² is naturally three-dimensional forming our three dimensional space of everyday life. The two dimensional spherical surface forms a manifold for the movement of positive and negative charge. Our ever changing world is based on this manifold and it could be called the fourth dimension of time. Quantum entanglement naturally forms out of this spherical wave geometry. A potential photon would have the same polarization or spin for the whole surface of the light sphere therefore having opposite spin on opposite sides of the sphere. Photon polarization and electron spin share this same spherical geometry, indicating that light and matter or photons and electrons are two expressions of one process. In this theory I say that the outward momentum of light forms the inward force of gravity. This is because the surface of the light sphere forms a two dimensional manifold forming a boundary condition for momentum as the future unfolds quantum by quantum, moment by moment. Therefore the curvature of this two dimensional manifold can form a phase gradient and because these phase gradients are spherically distributed, gravitational acceleration naturally obeys the inverse-square law. In this Theory, a massive object does not form a force but a phase-delay field. The internal complexity of matter in the form of sustained photon–electron interactions slows phase propagation locally. This creates concentric spherical phase surfaces with increasing delay toward the center. Motion follows these phase gradients with objects accelerating toward regions of greater phase delay, producing what we observe as gravitational attraction. Gravity is therefore a secondary process, not a fundamental interaction. In uniform motion, a system carries its internal phase structure with it. With no external phase gradients imposed, no acceleration occurs. This forms Newton’s First Law: an object in motion remains in motion unless acted upon by an external interaction. Inertia arises as resistance to changes in phase structure.
