Abstract
|
||
Our previous papers and book explain the essentials of the Aether Physics Model in sufficient detail. In this paper, we show the Aether Physics Model’s structure and logic for deriving a complete-periodictable ground state electron binding energy equation. There remains a very small arbitrarily induced quantity in the present formulation, but we are confident a physical quantity will soon replace it. This paper demonstrates the capacity for significant progress in understanding quantum structure and quantum mechanics using a completely new quantum paradigm.
|
||
|
||
1. Introduction
|
||
Scientists have attempted to quantify the electron binding energies of atoms. Lindgreni reports on probabilistic methods for deriving the electron binding energies using the Koopmans Theorem, ∆SCF, many-body perturbation (MBPT), Coupled-Cluster Approach (CCA), Greene’s function, and the density functional theory (DFT) approach. Whitneyii iii uses a new two-step variant of special relativity theory to uncover an underlying similarity between all elements and Hydrogen, and algebraically characterizes all variations from that norm. The present work bases on a new discrete physical model for quantum structure, and results directly in an accurate binding energy equation predicting all ground state electrons.
|
||
|
||
The Aether Physics Model is a discrete model of quantum structure. Up to now, the Aether Physics Model only quantified quantum structure, as opposed to quantum mechanics. Despite the properly quantified Unified Force Theory contained within the Aether Physics Model, the model has not yet received significant attention from physicists and mathematicians. This lack of interest is partly due to the necessity of learning revised definitions for the dimensions, understanding that electrical units should always be expressed in dimensions of distributed charge (charge squared), and understanding the two distinctly different manifestations of charges. Further, the Aether Physics Model is a paradigm of Aether/angular momentum, as opposed to the mass/energy paradigm presently in use.
|
||
|
||
The significance of the Aether/angular momentum paradigm is that it shows the relationship between environment (Aether) and matter (angular momentum). The environment and matter quantify geometrically, as well as with dimensions and values. The geometrical quantification of Aether and matter allows for a discrete understanding of quantum structure in five dimensions (three dimensions of length, two dimensions of frequency), and a more precise understanding of charges and their mechanics.
|
||
|
||
The discrete and precise quantum structures allow for the development of the electron binding energy
|
||
equations. We will lead the reader through each step of the process, but assume some familiarity with our white paperiv and bookv, which provide the foundation for the Aether Physics Model.

Unique to the Aether Physics Model is a new system of quantum measurement units. The quantum measurement units contain both dimensions and quantum values. Except where the quantum measurement already defines in modern physics, a four-letter acronym represents each unit. This new notation necessarily differentiates the new unit system from other systems.
|
||
|
||
2. Strong Force of the Electron
|
||
In our paper, A New Foundation for Physicsvi, we demonstrate the Casimir equation is actually a form of the strong force equation for the electron.
|
||
|
||
π ⋅h⋅c 480 ⋅ λC4
|
||
|
||
λC 2
|
||
|
||
≈
|
||
|
||
Au
|
||
|
||
e2 emax λC 2
|
||
|
||
(2.1)
|
||
|
||
The slight difference in value is consistent with the Casimir effect experiment by Steven Lamoreauxvii.
|
||
|
||
Since quantum structure composes from quantum measurements, and the Compton wavelength empirically demonstrates as the quantum length, we can determine the quantum energy of an electron during one cycle of the quantum frequency (the duration of one cycle of quantum frequency is a quantum moment) is equal to:
|
||
|
||
enrg
|
||
|
||
=
|
||
|
||
Au
|
||
|
||
e2 emax λC
|
||
|
||
(2.2)
|
||
|
||
Interestingly enough, the quantum energy of the electron is also equal to the mass of the electron times the speed of light squared:
|
||
|
||
enrg = me ⋅ c2
|
||
|
||
(2.3)
|
||
|
||
However, mass is not matter and no physical meaning is attributed to “velocity squared,” therefore there is no physical interpretation for mass times velocity squared in the Standard Model. In the Aether Physics Model, we discretely define quantum energy as the Aether (environment) imparting a quantum strong force through the electron over a range of one quantum length.
|
||
|
||
Although the electrons are bound to the nucleus due to electrostatic attraction, almost all the binding energy action takes place because of the strong force between electrons.
|
||
|
||
3. Meaning of Kinetic Energy
|
||
|
||
All energy transactions occur in two parts. There is the source of the energy and there is the receiver of
|
||
the energy. To put it in common language, there is cause and effect. Whether an electron is seen being acted upon, or doing the acting, it is only half the energy transaction. Therefore, the binding energy equation will represent only half the energy transaction. Our book, Secrets of the Aetherviii, explains the two-part energy transaction in detail.
|
||
|
||
4. Toroidal Structure of the Electron
|
||
|
||
While researching the evidence for electron radii, we came upon the research of David McCutcheon and his Ultrawave Theoryix, which gave an interesting view of the classical and Bohr electron radii:
|
||
|
||
2π re ⋅ 2πα0 = λC2
|
||
|
||
(4.1)
|
||
|
||
It is likely others have noticed this relationship, but such work was not located. The above relationship reveals that a toroid with a minor radius equal to the classical electron radius and major radius equal to the Bohr radius has the surface area equal to the Compton wavelength squared.
|
||
|
||
Further, Planck’s constant easily demonstrates the quantum of action (for the electron) is equal to the mass of the electron times the Compton wavelength squared times the quantum frequency.
|
||
|
||
h = me ⋅ λC2 ⋅ Fq
|
||
|
||
(4.2)
|
||
|
||
We used the above quantum analyses in developing the Aether Physics Model. It turns out the electron models as a toroid, which can have variable radii as long as the quantum surface area remains the same. Therefore, the electron is not a fixed-point particle, but is a flexible toroidal entity. The flexibility is possible due to the Aether, which gives the electron its structure. As detailed in Secrets of the Aetherx, the Aether is a quantum unit of rotating magnetic field. Ontologically, the Aether unit pre-exists matter and contributes to the material structure of the angular momentum encapsulated by it.
|
||
|
||
5. Hydrogen Electron Binding Energy
|
||
|
||
Because of the relationship between the classical and Bohr electron radii, the proportion of the two is equal to the electron fine structure constant squared.
|
||
|
||
re = α 2 α0
|
||
|
||
(5.1)
|
||
|
||
An equation, once posted on a Vanderbilt University philosophy pagexi, and by David McCutcheon, expressed the hydrogen 1s (ground state) orbital electron in terms of the electron fine structure and kinetic energy of the electron:
|
||
|
||
H1s
|
||
|
||
=α2
|
||
|
||
me ⋅ c2 2
|
||
|
||
= 13.606eV
|
||
|
||
(5.2)
|
||
|
||
In the Aether Physics Model, this would interpret as the ground state, unbound ratio of the electron radii times the strong force of the electron at the range of one quantum length:
|
||
|
||
H1s
|
||
|
||
= re α0
|
||
|
||
Au
|
||
|
||
e2 emax
|
||
2λC
|
||
|
||
= 13.606eV
|
||
|
||
(5.3)
|
||
|
||
(Electron volts express energy above, although the same value written in quantum measurements units is 2.663×10−5 enrg .)
|
||
|
||
6. Helium Electron Binding Energy
|
||
|
||
Due to the nature of curved Aether (space-time), when multiplying charges the square root of each charge is used. If there are two electron strong charges involved, then the strong force between them is equal to:
|
||
|
||
Au
|
||
|
||
2eemax ⋅ 2eemax λC 2
|
||
|
||
= F
|
||
|
||
(6.1)
|
||
|
||
We could similarly calculate the kinetic energy as:
|
||
|
||
Au
|
||
|
||
2eemax ⋅ 2eemax 2λC
|
||
|
||
= Ek
|
||
|
||
(6.2)
|
||
|
||
In our book, Secrets of the Aether, we have a section about Aether Structuresxii. The steps involved in building Aether structures involve quantifying the spin differences of matter and Aether. Although the quantum Aether unit has 2-spin, subatomic particles only inhabit one fourth of the Aether, or half spin.
|
||
|
||
The “spin” of the subatomic particles is a direct result of the two dynamic frequency dimensions of the Aether. One of the dynamic frequency dimensions manifests as forward/backward time, the other manifests as right/left spin direction. There is actually a third “static” frequency, which results in positive/negative electrostatic charge.
|
||
|
||
All matter in our observed Universe exists in only the forward time direction. This observed matter further divides into matter and antimatter, depending on which half of the spin direction cycle it exists. Matter also divides into positive and negative charge depending on which half of the static charge cycle it exists.
|
||
|
||
The primary angular momentum composing subatomic particles can only spin in either the forward or backward time direction, and either the right or left spin direction, and exist in either the positive or the negative of the static charge dipole. Since static charge is not part of the dynamic two-spin structure of the Aether, and angular momentum only exists in half the forward/backward time frequency and half the right/left spin direction, matter appears to have half-spin.
|
||
|
||
Therefore, when half spin subatomic particles bind they are missing the backward time direction, yet the Aether sees this backward time direction. The result is that subatomic particles do not pair exactly opposite or adjacent to each other, as square building blocks seem to do at the macro level of existence. Instead, the subatomic particles (being curved toroidal structures to begin with), build up in a twisted pattern.
|
||
|
||
This twisted construction affects the minor and major radii of the toroidal electrons. As electrons bind to each other and fill the Aether spin positions around an atomic nucleus, the effect is additive.
|
||
|
||
In the case of the electrons, the minor radius increases with the number of electrons (which is equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom). Designating the number of protons as Z, the minor radius decreases in steps of half spin.
|
||
|
||
Z2 +1−1 2
|
||
|
||
(6.3)
|
||
|
||
The major radius increases in steps of half spin:
|
||
|
||
Z2 +1+1 2
|
||
|
||
(6.4)
|
||
|
||
The above stepping patterns are the phi and Phi numbers. In the case of the first binding, where there are two electrons, we get:
|
||
|
||
22 +1 −1 = phi = .618...
|
||
|
||
2
|
||
|
||
(6.5)
|
||
|
||
22 +1 +1 = Phi = 1.618...
|
||
|
||
2
|
||
|
||
The above numbers are the Golden Ratio (Phi) and its reciprocal (phi).
|
||
|
||
With the increase in the number of protons in the atoms, there is an increase in the number of electrons. The total electron radii deform accordingly. As the minor radius shrinks and the major radius grows, there is a deformation as the Aether units stretch and thus the distance between them shrinks. The distance empirically induces in terms of the quantum length as (the nth root is a capital Z squared):
|
||
|
||
λ C 2 Z 2
|
||
|
||
(6.6)
|
||
|
||
There is no electron strong force binding in the neutral hydrogen atom because there is only one electron, but when we look at helium and all other neutral atoms, the electron binding energy equation for the 1s “orbital” electron becomes:
|
||
|
||
re Z1s =
|
||
α0
|
||
|
||
Z 2 +1 −1
|
||
|
||
2 Z2 +1+1

|
||
|
||
2
|
||
|
||
2
|
||
|
||
(6.7)
|
||
|
||
In the case of the neutral helium atom, we can calculate the 1s orbital electron binding energies as:
|
||
|
||
re He1s =
|
||
α0
|
||
|
||
22 +1 −1
|
||
|
||
2 22 +1 +1

|
||
|

|
||
|

|
||
|
||
=
|
||
|
||
24.721eV
|
||
|
||
2
|
||
|
||
(6.8)
|
||
|
||
The empirically measured 1s “orbital” electron binding energy for helium is 24.6eV.
|
||
|
||
7. Lithium and All Other Binding Energies
|
||
|
||
As the bindings continue into complexity, it is clear another factor comes into play, which does not yet properly quantify. The elements lithium through neon comprise the second orbital layer around the nucleus. It may just be coincidence, but these eight out of the first ten elements calculate to eight tenths of their measured values. From sodium to uranium, the calculation variations are linear with respect to the measured electron binding energies indicating a simple physical explanation.
|
||
When a linear adjustment applies to the equation, the calculations are remarkably close to the measured values:
|
||
|
||
re Z1s =
|
||
α0
|
||
|
||
Z 2 +1 −1
|
||
|
||
2 Z2 +1+1

||

||

|
||
|
||
⋅ eemax
|
||
|
||
⋅ Z2 2 2λC
|
||
|
||
⋅ (.757 + .0028Z )
|
||
|
||
2
|
||
|
||
(7.1)
|
||
|
||
The above equation may be simplified, but it remains in its present form to remind the reader of its physical interpretation. The empirical data used in this paper draws from Gwyn Williams’xiii compilation of electron binding energies. Table 2 shows the measured and calculated 1s orbital binding energies in eV per atomic element and the deviation between them based upon equation 7.1. Figure 1 depicts the deviation of the calculations from the empirically measured electron binding energies of the 1s orbital position for each element for equation 7.1.
|
||
|
||
Table 3 lists the measured 1s orbital binding energies in eV per atomic element in comparison to the calculations of equation 6.8 (without the linear adjustment). Figure 2 shows the deviation of the unadjusted (equation 6.8) calculations from the empirical electron binding energies of the 1s orbital positions for each atomic element. The unadjusted data presents for those interested in discovering the final physical component of the 1s orbital binding energy equation.

9. Conclusion
|
||
|
||
The Aether Physics Model electron binding energy equations for the 1s orbitals are not exact, but very close, especially considering that all the elemental ground states are calculated from first principles. There is the possibility the data could be faulty, however it is more likely there are aspects of the Aether structure which the equation is not yet addressing. These aspects may surface as future modifications to the equation calculate the remaining electron orbital positions.
|
||
|
||
The electron binding energy equation is the first quantum mechanical expression of the Aether Physics Model and demonstrates the model is viable. Unlike the quantum mechanics of the mass/energy paradigm, the Aether Physics Model is discrete and devoid of probability functions and paradoxes, which should make it superior to the Standard Model when fully developed.
|
||
|
||
Now that the Aether Physics Model quantifies the quantum structure and we have produced our first set of equations, the analysis must develop further until it explains all aspects of the atom. We should then be able to quantify the structural aspects of associated molecules. We also need to quantify and explore the mechanics of light very thoroughly.
