Space Resonance

This illustration of the Space Resonance wave of an electron lets you imagine  vividly what an electron looks like if it were big enough to see.  For a more detailed description of the Standing Wave and how it works, visit the page Seeing an Electron at this site.

The physical structure of the charged particles involves inward and outward spherical  quantum waves.  At the center, spherical rotation* changes in-waves to out-waves.

The simplest resonance is the electron whose mathematical physical structure is exactly  known. Electron waves (comprising all charged particles) extend to infinity serving as the  'communicator' of the natural laws. In contrast, the hadrons exist in a closed, high  density region of high-frequency waves analogous to waves inside a drum or a hollow  sphere.  No one is sure.  It is thought that the many modes of possible  vibration in the closed space correspond to the many types of hadron particles.  All  the qualitative properties point to this conclusion.  But no mathematical solutions of these 3D wave modes have been investigated.  Mathematicians, please rise to the  challenge!

The Spherical Wave Concept of Matter solves Quantum Theory Enigmas

Four thousand years  ago, Democritis created the point particle of mass to represent the fundamental elements  of matter.  This concept was satisfactory until about 1900 when quantum  properties of matter were found. Then, puzzles, problems, and paradoxes appeared because  most properties of matter derive from the wave structure of particles.  Democritis  couldn't know this and until recently few persons challenged his embedded concept.   Nevertheless, Schroedinger, deBroglie, Dirac, and Einstein, the founders of quantum  theory, preferred a wave structure of matter, and in the last decades researchers have  validated their intuition.

The Space Resonance concept – matter structured of spherical wave centers – avoids and explains the paradoxes and problems of point particles. In hindsight it  is simple; since mass and charge substances do not exist in nature, removing them from  particle structure also removes their problems.  In their place, the wave centers  possess the properties of mass and charge which we observe in a human-sized laboratory,  but without the problems of finding mass points which do not exist!. One of the  fascinating puzzles explained below by this new structure is the former mystery—the spin of the electron! The overwhelming proof of the Wave Structure of Matter is the discovery that all the former empirical natural laws originate from the wave structure. The probability  of a coincidence is infinitesimally small.

New Insights.  A simple spherical wave structure of  the particles leads to new exciting insights, including:  1) the origin of the  natural laws, and 2) the relationships between the smallest things—particles—and the largest, the universe itself.  These insights are breath-taking in their  scope and potential.  This structure appears to agree with and predict experimental observations.

Origin of the Laws.  The origin of the natual laws are basically concerned with the behavior and  forces between two particles.  Using Democritis' static particle model, there  was no way  to understand how forces, locations, or directions could be communicated  between the particles.   Now the inward and outward spherical waves of the two particles provide that infomation continuously.  The origin of the natural laws are described in a book,  “Exploring the Physics of the Unknown Universe”, available at Amazon.com.

The Particle vs. the Universe.  The relationships between particles and the entire universe are interacting with each other through their inward and outward waves.  Thus they become joined into one ensemble of waves which determines the behavior of the individual particles.  The simplest example is Mach's Principle, which proposed (1890) that all the matter of  the universe determines the law of inertia (F=ma). This and other relationships are discussed in the paper “The Eightfold Way of the Universe”.
