It is the nucleus that is trapped in the \(B\) orbits. Not the electron being pulled and restricted by the nucleus.
The electron will not collapse to a lower orbit because of the light speed limit. Drag provides the centripetal force not electrostatic attraction.
This means electrons can be in orbit without a nucleus momentarily. And it is the \(B\) orbit that captures and hold a nucleus.
I think I have the whole picture. Of covalent bonds and ionic bonds, stable 8 configurations...
The next electron that enters the picture fills up the torus! 8 electrons. After which electronic shells begin to form and as a whole behave like a partially charged nucleus. Then the torus configuration starts over again.
The spherical electronic shells form ionic bonds. For the torus, the electron's orbit chain up and form stronger covalent bonds.
I have got it! Nobel prize!
