Virtual ring and quantum elements of a classical particle

Abstract

The fractal equations of mechanics (quantum and classical) are clearly demonstrated to be definitions of an arbitrary potential on a fractal complex number valued surface. The developed approach helps us to show that a translational motion of any rotating compact object (point-like particle) can be equivalently represented by a specific rotation of a virtual ring described in terms of a fractal “wave function”, the model endowing the particle with a set of quantum characteristics including quantization of the ring’s space translation.

Quantum-Mechanical Problems Geometrically Represented within Virtual Ring Theory

Alexander P. Yefremov

Virtual Ring Theory implies replacement of a particle with a ghost ring endowed with certain standards that are used to measure distances and mechanical characteristics in integer numbers. This model is applied to three “classical” quantum-mechanical (QM) problems, 1D-box system, H-atom, and linear oscillator. It is shown that the relevant virtual geometric models entail the same energy levels as follow from the respective exact solutions of the Schrödinger equation.

The Quantum Mechanical State

David Hodgson

In classical physics, the ‘state’ of a particle, at any particular time, is taken to involve a definite position in space and a definite motion; and the state of a system of particles is taken to involve a definite position in space and a definite motion for each of the particles. The situation in relation to quantum mechanics is completely different. As in classical physics, calculations can be made concerning the position and motion of a particle. However, this representation is not by means of symbols for scalar or vector quantities: it is by a more complex mathematical object. This quantum state does not indicate or represent position or motion in any direct way: what it does in substance is to enable calculation of the probability of the particle in question being found to have a position or momentum if an appropriate measurement is made.

Mathematical models of quantum mechanical systems

Simon Ya. Serovajsky

The laws of quantum mechanics differ significantly from the laws of classical mechanics. The mathematical apparatus of quantum mechanics is based on the amazing Schrödinger equation. This is a specific partial differential equation with respect to a complex-valued function called the wave function. This characteristic allows, in particular, estimating the probability of finding a quantum mechanical particle in a given volume. We establish the Schrödinger equation for a free particle and for a particle moving in an external field. Then the problem of passing a potential barrier is investigated. It is shown that, in contrast to the classical case, even a relatively slow quantum mechanical particle is capable of overcoming a sufficiently high potential barrier. The Appendix considers the concept of a normalized wave function and analyzes the movement of a particle in a potential well with infinite walls.

Rotation

Peter Joshua Atkins, Julio de Paula, David Young Smith

This chapter focuses on the motion first on a circle and then on the surface of a sphere. It discusses the imposition of certain constraints on the wavefunction which shows how the energy and angular momentum of a rotating particle are quantized. It also examines the energy and the angular momentum of a rotating object which are quantized. The chapter reviews quantum mechanics and shows what they reveal about rotational motion. The chapter also considers a particle of mass m moving in a circular path of radius r in the xy-plane. It highlights translational motion which focuses on linear momentum, p and analogous angular momentum, J if rotational motion is considered.

Particle and Wave: Developing the Quantum Wave Accompanying a Classical Particle

C. L. Herzenberg

The relationship between classical and quantum mechanics is explored in an intuitive manner by the exercise of constructing a wave in association with a classical particle. Using special relativity, the time coordinate in the frame of reference of a moving particle is expressed in terms of the coordinates in the laboratory frame of reference in order to provide an initial spatiotemporal function to work from in initiating the development of a quantum wave. When temporal periodicity is ascribed to the particle, a provisional spatiotemporal function for a particle travelling at constant velocity manifests itself as an running wave characterized by parameters associated with the moving particle. A wave description for bidirectional motion is generated based on an average time coordinate for a combination of oppositely directed elementary running waves, and the resulting spatiotemporal function exhibits wave behavior characteristic of a standing wave. Ascribing directional orientation to the intrinsic periodicity of the particle introduces directional sub-states; variations in the relative number of sub-states as a function of angle in combined states lead to spatially varying magnitudes for the associated waves. Further analysis leads to full mathematical expression for all waves representing free particle motion. A generalization for particles subject to force fields enables us to develop a governing differential equation identical in form to the Schroedinger equation.

From the Newton's laws to motions of the fluid and superfluid vacuum: vortex tubes, rings, and others

Valeriy I. Sbitnev

Owing to three conditions (namely: (a) the velocity is represented by sum of irrotational and solenoidal components; (b) the fluid is barotropic; (c) a bath with the fluid undergoes vertical vibrations) the Navier-Stokes equation admits reduction to the modified Hamilton-Jacobi equation. The modification term is the Bohmian(quantum) potential. This reduction opens possibility to define a complex-valued function, named the wave function, which is a solution of the Schrödinger equation. The solenoidal component being added to the momentum operator poses itself as a vector potential by analogy with the magnetic vector potential. The vector potential is represented by the solenoidal velocity multiplied by mass of the fluid element. Vortex tubes, rings, and balls along with the wave function guiding these objects are solutions of this equation. Motion of the vortex balls along the Bohmian trajectories gives a model of droplets moving on the fluid surface. A peculiar fluid is the superfluid physical vacuum. It contains Bose particle-antiparticle pairs. Vortex lines presented by electron-positron pairs are main torque objects. Bundles of the vortex lines can transmit a torque from one rotating disk to other unmoved disk.
