1 THE SMALLEST PARTICLE IN NATURE AND THE ILLUSION OF THE BINDING FORCE Sing-Wang Cheng 43 Las Tunas, Dr. Arcadia, CA USA Date: September 3, 003 Abstract All elements in the nature are produced from two materials which are Tei and Tei-. They are both static mass: positron is produced from Tei, while electron is produced from Tei-; and atoms are constructed from positron and electron. Tei combine with Tei- will produce the smallest energy particle Tei0. Tei0 will accumulate and become big energy particles such as photon. There are four different types of force in nature: electric force, gravitational force, big force and magnetic force. These four different types of forces and the entire physical phenomenon in these forces are related to the characteristics of the dipole moment of the smallest unit energy particle Tei0/ether. This smallest unit energy particle Tei0/ether is continuously radiating from all substances. Normally the radiations of Tei0 are isotropic in all direction, and the repellent momentum of Tei0 line is balance in all direction. However, under certain condition the directions of the radiation will be interrupted by other coming Tei0 line, and the radiation will be un-isotropic. The repellent momentum of the mother body will be unbalanced and this mother body will have the tendency to move toward or away from the direction of coming Tei0 line. This phenomenon gives a false illusion of binding force exists in nature.

2 Introduction. From study in radiation of black body, Wien s displacement law states that the value of the wavelength associated with the energy maximum in the spectrum is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature, i.e., λ max T= constant. Thus, the wavelength λ max is a function of temperature T. An improved new relationship from emitting wavelength and associated temperature T can be written as 1 F( T ) = λn = μm (1) T 9 ( ) ( ) In order not to confuse with λ max, which is generally used with the calculated wavelength, we will use λ n as the maximum wavelength calculated from equation 1. A comparison of the calculated data λ n and the actual data λ max taken from the experimental data Ref 1 is shown in table 1. At the temperature absolute zero, molecular motion vanishes and the body will have no heat energy. However, when the body is close to absolute zero 0, it will have a last energy particle to eliminate from mother body prior to it seize any movement and reach the temperature of absolute zero. The wavelength of this last particle is x10 - m, which is calculated from equation 1. Hypothesis 1. Tei0/ether is neutral in charge; it is made from Tei and Tei-. The particles Tei and Tei- are static, thus they are static mass (Ms). Tei0/ether is a unit (particle) of momentum mass (Mo) or energy mass, it s always moving with an absolute speed of photon (light). a. Tei0/ether is neutral in charge, it is made from Tei and Tei-. The particles Tei and Tei- are static, thus they are static mass (Ms). They are stationary unless they are carried by momentum mass (Mo). b. Tei and Tei- when they are separated, they are both static mass. They will both keep in stationary without any movement. However, when they are combined into Tei0, the Tei0 will also bear the characteristic of momentum and will also become the momentum mass (Mo) which is similar to an energy particle with the energy keeping it in movement. c. Tei0 will have a characteristic of dipole moment; they are binding as fig 1. 1

3 d. Tei or Tei-; each of their mass is one half of Tei0 and they have positive and negative charge respectively. The mass of Tei is x kg with the positive charge of x10-9 C: the mass of Tei- is also x kg with the negative charge of x10-9 C. e. Tei and Tei- can combine to become Tei0. Tei0 can also reverse and break into Tei and Tei-. This reversible reaction is under some special condition. Tei0 Tei Tei- Hypothesis. From the wavelength of last radiation particle, the weight of the energy particle can be calculated. This particle should be the smallest energy particle. This smallest energy particle with its mass x 10-4 ev is corresponding to x kg. From hereafter, lets denote this particle as Tei Zero or name it to be ether and let the symbol to be Tei0. Tei0 is neutral in charge. This particle Tei0 bears two types of characteristics where one characteristic is Tei0 is a momentum mass with the characteristics similar to photon where it will move without rest; (photon has no momentum while Tei0 does have momentum). The characteristic of Tei0 does have momentum similar to the static mass (when it moves) because of its characteristics of dipole moment. Thus, Tei0 have both kind of natures, i.e., static and momentum mass. Rule of momentum energy: Static mass (Ms) will move if it is carried by momentum mass (Mo). Momentum energy of a static mass (Ms) is of the form Or M M C 1 M v M v o = s o () 1 v o C = M sv M o (3) where v is the velocity of M s and C is the speed of light. For particle traveling at a very high speed (or approaching speed of light), equation 3 is preferred with higher accuracy. For example, a proton under 500 Giga-eV, its calculated speed is C from equation 3. Compare this result with an actual experimental test data, where the speed of proton is % of the speed of light. REF

4 Hypothesis 3. Tei0 can accumulate to be any size of a big sand ball like particle, or any size of energy particle at special condition as accumulated on the surface of the static mass. Any energy ball can be accumulated by the surface of static mass. Energy particle are trapped around the static mass in a similar way as satellites orbiting around the Earth with different heights and will continue to travel with the speed of photons restless. The densities of trapped energy particles on the surface of M s can be indicated by the temperature of that substance. The hotter the temperature is, the higher the density of energy particle is accumulated. When the sum of the vector of the movement of this energy particle is zero, the density of the energy particle will indicate the temperature. Where the sum of the vector of the movement of the particle is not zero, the unbalanced vector of energy particle will indicate its momentum energy. There are four kinds of forces between two static mass. I. Electric force q1q F e = K (4) L Static mass always radiate Tei0, Tei0 is a dipole unit, e radiates the positive side of Tei0 in front while e- radiates the negative side in front as shown in fig. The nature of different front side will show the positive or negative electric field In nature, there are no mechanisms for binding. There are no binding forces. Any static mass will radiates Tei0 continuously and isotropically in all directions. The amount of radiation will be constant but its direction of radiation will be influenced by another coming Tei0 radiation line which radiated from another static mass. Thus, the radiation of Tei0 will not be uniform in all directions of mother body because of uneven radiation of Tei0 in all of the direction. The resultant repellent momentum of Tei0 will be anisotropic and the mother body will have tendency to move due to the uneven repellent momentum which created by uneven directional radiations of Tei0 radiated from the mother body itself, which is similar to the air jet pushing the mother body to move. The direction of the radiation of Tei0 will be influenced by other coming Tei0 radiation line. 1. When a positive charge static mass radiates positive front Tei0 line, it will be influenced by coming negative front Tei0 line causing the positive front radiating to be more concentrate to parallel to coming Tei0 line. Thus, the radiation of Tei0 will concentrate to one direction (the direction is opposite of the coming mother body), and the momentum of Tei0 will not be 3

5 balanced in all directions of the mother body. This unbalanced of momentum of Tei0 will cause the mother body to have an unbalanced repellent momentum with the tendency for the mother body to move toward the mother body of the coming Tei0 line. This is the illusion that a binding force exists between two mother bodies.. When a positive charge static mass radiates positive front Tei0 line encounters a coming positive front Tei0 line, it will cause the emitting of the positive radiating front Tei0 line on the opposite side of the coming mother body to disperse away from original direction. This again causing the momentum to be unbalanced and the repellent momentum to be in a less than an uniform conditions, which creates a tendency for the mother body to move away from the mother body of the coming Tei0 line. This gives the illusion that repellent force exists between two mother bodies. 3. When the negative charged static mass radiates negative front Tei0 line encounters a negative front Tei0 line from another mother body, it will act similar to the situation indicated above and causing the mother body with the tendency to move away from the mother body of the coming Tei0 line. 4. When the negative charged static mass radiates negative front Tei0 line encounters a positive front Tei0 line from another mother body, it will act similar to the situation 1 stated above and causing the mother body with the tendency to move towards the mother body of the coming positive front Tei0 line. II. Gravitational force m1m F g = G (5) L Since there are no binding mechanisms for any force, gravitational force is similar to the four type of repellent momentum in the electric force. When the repellent momentum with tendency for mother body to move toward the mother body of the coming Tei0 line (situations I and IV) is larger than the repellent momentum with the tendency for mother body to move away from the mother body of the coming Tei0 line (situations II and III), the difference of the repellent momentum will have the tendency for the two bodies to move towards each other which will give a illusion of binding force between the two body. This illusion of binding force is what we called the gravity. 4

6 B Gravitational field is a combination of positive electric field and negative electric field. Both the positive and negative electric field will coexist; they will not eliminate each other. The density of complex field will show in gravitational field as shown in fig. Gravitation field of many particle of static mass in one space, the density of its absolute gravitational field is a summation of all of them without considering their vector nature. When a photon travels through this space, its index will depend on the density of complex gravitation (i.e., the complex of electric field). The density of absolute gravitation is higher; the speed of photon will be slower. Although, the nature of the absolute gravitation will consider its density of complex field without consider its vector. However when calculating gravitational force, we should consider the balance of their vector. As photon travels thru glass, water, or permutable substance, its velocity will be slowed down because its density of absolute gravitational field is higher. Thus, a photon travels in the outer space should be faster than on the surface of earth, because the density of absolute gravitation field in outer space is much less than that on the surface of earth. III. Big force: When two mother bodies are very close to each other, where the energy particle (or Tei0) accumulating zone surrounding the mother body overlapping from one another, tei0 will not be emitted in the overlapping zone. This affect causes the radiation of the tei0 to be anisotropic which will create an unbalanced repelling momentum. This unbalanced repelling momentum will cause both mother bodies with the tendency to move closer to each other. This tendency for the two mother bodies to move towards each other is much larger than in the case of gravitational force. Hypothesis 4. Big force is related to a constant K B and both of the mass of their particle and reverse of 4.8 power of its distance: m1m F = BF K B 4.8 L (6) Where K B B is a constant for Big force: KBB= X 10-9 Nm 4.8 /kg IV. Magnetic force: Hypothesis 5. Tei0 is produced from both Tei and Tei- and it will have characteristics of dipole moment as fig 1. 5

7 For a flow of electric current, the surrounding electric field will fluctuate between the strong and weak electric field causing the Tei0 with dipole moment to spin as fig 3. If electric current is from right to left, the Tei0 will spin clockwise, at the upper position of the electric rope its torque will face down to the paper as fig 3. This torque will create magnetic field or itself is magnetic field. Tei0 has characteristic nature of dipole moment, its dipole moment P is: Radius of Tei- = x (1.094 x / x ) 1/3 = x m P = q x L = x 10-9 C x x x m = x mc T = P x E To study this torque, the phenomenon of magnetic force will be cleared A current of electricity which will cause magnetic mother body to radiate spinning Tei0, which will become the magnetic line. When the spinning Tei0 line of a magnetic mother body connects with other spinning coming Tei0 line, it will influent this mother body to radiate an unbalanced Tei0 radiation. This unbalanced Tei0 radiation will cause the tendency for the two mother bodies to move closer or repel away. P.S. energy particle of photon are combined particle of Tei0, particle which combine with more than two Tei0 will not have the characteristics of dipole moment. Hypothesis 6. Positrons and electrons are static mass produced from Tei and Tei-, both of them are similar in nature, therefore we will only discuss the situation of electron particle. Electron is formed from Teiparticles which combine like a sand ball. Big gravitational force is responsible for holding these Teiparticles together to become an electron. To construct electron, magnetic force is not exist. Normal gravitational force is too small without consideration. Because Tei- has negative charge, the repelling force Fe exists when forming the electron. Tei- also is a static mass and big force F BF is the mechanism to bind Tei- together to become this big sand ball electron. Electron is billion times of Tei-. The equilibrium of Fe and F BF can build the electron and limit the electron to be constant size. At the time Fe = F BF, the surface of the electron should be the equilibrium point with its radius (Re) is.81794x10-15 m, R Tei = x m. 6

8 B The electric repellent force between Tei- and e- is: Fe = Nm /c x 10 9 x x C x x 10-9 C / ( x ) m = x 10-9 N For big force, the binding force between Tei- and e- is Constant of K B = X 10 Nm /kg F BF 4.8 = K B B x Me x M Tei - x (1 / (Re R T ) ) = X 10-9 Nm / kg x x10-31kg x x kg / ( x ) 4.8 m 4.8 = x 10-9 N From above, electric repellent force and big force are equal. They are equal on the surface of the electron. It will be clear why electron is always kept in a constant size. It is further noted that the positron and electron always remain in a constant size when they are alone. However, if they are combined or bonded together, neither positron nor electron will keep its size in unity; where the amount of charge disappeared for both positron and electron when they are bonded or combined together is always equal. Thus, the charge of combined particle will always be in whole number. To further explaining the change of the size of the positron and electron when they are combined or boned together; lets take two positrons and one electron and combine them together where the net charge of the combination is 1. First take one positron and bond 1/3 with the electron. The size of positron and electron both reduces 1/3. Now take another positron and again bond 1/3 with the electron. Again, the size of both electron and the positron reduces by 1/3. Now let s look at the combination of the two positrons and one electron. The size of both positrons has reduced to /3 and the size of the electron has reduced to only 1/3 of its original size (refer to figure 4 and figure 5). The final result will give this combination a net charge of 1; i.e. (1-1/3) [-(1-/3)] = 1. Once this combination is formed, in order to break it apart, a sufficient amount of energy or Tei0 particle is required to add into the combination to break it back to its original size. How much energy or Tei0 is required to add into the combination is exactly equal to the amount of reduction each positron and electron has reduced. Once enough Tei0 is added into the combination, both positron and electron will regain its original size and break apart from each other to become two independent particles. This shows why in nature electric charge is always in a unity for all of the elementary particle from nuclear. This concept can be used to introduce to the structure of the proton, neutron, etc. In nuclear decay the elementary 7

9 particle might not be elementary. The known existing elementary particle may very well be just a chip of the proton. The Tei0 only can separate to be Tei and Tei- under very strong complex of positive and negative electric field. Electromagnetic wave is an energy particle carrying either Tei or Tei-, only with one unit of Tei or Tei -. The ratio of M Tei / Mo or M Tei- / Mo will decide the speed of the electromagnetic wave, frequency, and wavelength of this wave; thus the bigger the M T / Mo the lower the frequency of the wave. The speed of electromagnetic wave may be calculated from equation or 3. Since the photon is a sand ball of Tei0, it may decay gradually. Although its half-life may be very long, nonetheless, it will decay. The photon s half-life will be related to the density of the absolute gravitational field of the rout traveled. When the density is lower, the half-life of photon will be longer. The light coming from far planets that travels so many years and may change its size of photon particle and its frequency may decrease. So its line spectra may shift from short wavelength to longer one. Thus, the concepts of those planets are parting from earth base on the line spectra of light that came from far planets should be questioned. The concept above will clarify many of the current physical phenomenons. Reference: [1] David R. Lide 001 CRC Handbook of chemistry and physics 8nd edition (New York: CRC Press) [] Kenneth W.
