Nature Has Orbits

From the post "Spin First Run Later" and "Photon Emission After Absorption" dated 15 Jul 2015, for 0x<xz

d2xdt2=1mψcuψc+u1eu(e2u1)1/2(dxdt)2

and for x>xz, where ψ(xz)=ψmax,

d2xdt2=1mψc+uψc+u1eu(e2u1)1/2(dxdt)2

Although,

d2xdt2=0 is trivial in most cases, it is not so here, especially in the latter equation where,

0=1mψc+uψc+u1eu(e2u1)1/2(dxdt)2

(dxdt)2=v2=1mψcψc+uueu(e2u1)1/2

which means v=dxdt is complex and is perpendicular to x, the radial line joining the particle and the center of the ψ cloud.

In that expression,

ψc=ψnψmax

u=ln(cosh(xxa2))

which suggests that for each value of x there is a corresponding value of v by which the particle orbits about the center of the particle cloud at radius rorbit=x.


The centrifugal force,

F=mv2x

This force is provided for by the difference in ψ between the orbiting particle and the ψ cloud.  This force points in the direction of higher ψ towards ψmax at x=xz.

ψnψ(x)=F=mv2x

which leads to,

ψnψ(x)=F=mv2x=1xψcψc+uueu(e2u1)1/2

ψn{1+1xψc+uueu(e2u1)1/2}=ln(cosh(xxa2)+ψmax{1+1xψc+uueu(e2u1)1/2}

{ψnψmax+ln(cosh(x12xa)}{1+1xψc+uueu(e2u1)1/2}=0

which is true as,

d2xdt20+1mψ(x)=1mψn

implies,

ψnψ(x)=0

ψnψmax+ln(cosh(x12xa)=0

We have just verified the possibility of d2xdt2=0 for x>xz.  When d2xdt2>0, d2xdt2 points towards the origin and acts to provide for the centrifugal force.  v2 is negative, v is complex,  iv is in the direction perpendicular to x.  The particle is in orbit around the origin.  Orbiting around the center of the particle ψ cloud is the natural thing to do.

For the former case, 0x<xz, d2xdt2=0 just implies that the particle can instantaneously experience zero acceleration.

Note: First we verify the possibility of v changing direction to iv at d2xdt2=0 then assert that when d2xdt2>0, d2xdt2 provides for the centrifugal force and the particle is thus in circular motion.  For x>xz, where ψ(xz)=ψmax, the force on the particle is towards ψmax, as such in the negative x direction.
