Quantum theory of matter in bulk: Modern treatment

E. B. Manoukian

A systematic mathematical modern presentation is given, providing in a direct way the underlying technical details, to show how quantum theory, with the Pauli exclusion principle, has, over the years, solved the problem of why matter in bulk is stable and occupies so large a volume.

Why Matter Occupies so Large a Volume?

Edward B. Manoukian

The paper represents a rigorous treatment of the underlying quantum theory, not just in words but providing the underlying technical details, as to why matter occupies so large a volume and its intimate connection with the Pauli exclusion principle, as more and more matter is put together, as well as of the contraction or shrinkage of “bosonic matter”, upon collapse, for which the Pauli exclusion is abolished. From the derived explicit bounds of integrals of powers of the particle number densities, explicit bounds on probabilities of the occurrences of the events just described are extracted. These probabilities lead one to infer the change of the “size” or extension of such matter, upon expansion or contraction, respectively, as their content is increased.

What Does the Wavefunction Represent?

Spiros Koutandos

As was Einstein s original idea we suppose that the speed of light is altered in the presence of mass by a change in its dielectric susceptibility. Our explanation of the phenomena of quantum mechanics is a continuation of Einstein search for hidden variables. Mass induces a curvature in spacetime. This has two effects. New volume is created and this would mean that there is not exactly a point particle but matters in a way occupies some volume. Another result is that spacetime becomes cyclic and quantities like the action are quantized because they depend on angles through which the observer witnesses the events.
