Linear Dependence of Electron-Decay Maximum Energy on the Mass Number A Along Isotopic Chains For Z<47

We investigate the systematics of the maximum Electron-decay energy E as a function of the mass number A along isotopic chains with a fixed proton number across Z<47. By making use of the available curated nuclear data, we find that, for each fixed Z, the decay energy can be described to excellent accuracy by a linear dependence on A, provided that even-A and odd-A isotopes are treated separately. This yields two straight-line trends for each element, which are characterized by the slope and intercept parameters that can be systematically tabulated across the studied range. The corresponding fits are remarkably accurate, where the coefficients of determination are typically almost unity. Such an element-by-element empirical regularity does not appear to have been previously tabulated in a compact systematic form in the nuclear physics literature. We hence provide a simple and compact parameterization of Electron-decay energetics along isotopic chains with respect to our stated scope, whereby the approach at hand may prove useful for the analysis of decay-energy evolution, behavioral classification, and preliminary estimates of Electron-decay properties. The broader theoretical motivation that initially led us to search for such a regularity is discussed only after the confirmation of our results through experimental data is established.

Mossbauer experiments in a rotating system: The so-called "synchronization effect" to explain the extra energy shift between emitted and absorbed radiation constitutes a complete failure

We show that a new attempt by C. Corda to once more rehash his so-called "synchronization effect" in order to account for the origin of the extra energy shift between emitted and absorbed radiation in Mossbauer rotor experiments (C. Corda, Int. J. Mod. Phys. D, doi: 10.1142/S0218271819501311) is yet again erroneous, just as were his previous attempts (Ann. Phys. 355, 360 (2015); Ann. Phys. 368, 258 (2016); Int. J. Mod. Phys. D 27, 1847016 (2018)). The correct approach presented herein with regards to the calculation of the energy shift between emitted and absorbed radiation in a rotating system leads to, as a matter of fact, no specific "synchronization effect".

Concerning Moessbauer experiments in a rotating system and their physical interpretation

We shortly review different attempts to interpret the results of Moessbauer rotor experiments in a rotating system and particularly we show that the latest work on this subject by J. Iovane and E. Benedetto (Ann. Phys., in press), which claims that the outcomes of these experiments can supposedly be explained via "desynchronization of clocks" in the rotating frame and in the laboratory frame, is inapplicable to all of the Moessbauer rotor experiments performed up to date and thus does not have any significance.

Force law in material media and quantum phases

We show that the known expressions for the force on a point-like dipole are incompatible with the relativistic transformation of force, and in this respect we apply the Lagrangian approach to the derivation of the correct equation for force on a small electric/magnetic dipole. The obtained expression for the generalized momentum of a moving dipole predicts two novel quantum effects with non-topological and non-dynamic phases, when an electric dipole is moving in an electric field, and when a magnetic dipole is moving in a magnetic field, correspondingly. The implications of the obtained results are discussed.

Laws of conservation of momentum and angular momentum in classical electrodynamics of material media

We analyze the laws of conservation of momentum and angular momentum in classical electrodynamics of material media with bound charges, and explore the possibility to describe the properties of such media via a discrete set of point-like charges of zero size (as imposed by special relativity), and via continuous charge/current distributions. This way we put a question: do we have to recognize the infinite fields at the location of elementary charges as the essential physical requirement, or such infinite fields can be ignored via introduction of continuous charge distribution? In order to answer this question, we consider the interaction of a homogeneously charged insulating plate with a compact magnetic dipole, moving along the plate. We arrive at the apparent violation of the angular momentum conservation law and show that this law is re-covered, when the electric field at the location of each elementary charge of the plate is taken infinite. This result signifies that the description of electromagnetic properties of material media via the continuous charge and current distributions is not a universal approximation, and at the fundamental level, we have to deal with a system of elementary discrete charges of zero size, at least in the analysis of laws of conservation of momentum and angular momentum.

Conservative relativity principle: Logical ground and analysis of relevant experiments

We suggest a new relativity principle, which asserts the impossibility to distinguish the state of rest and the state of motion at the constant velocity of a system, if no work is done to the system in question during its motion. We suggest calling this new rule as "conservative relativity principle" (CRP). In the case of an empty space, CRP is reduced to the Einstein special relativity principle. We also show that CRP is compatible with the general relativity principle. One of important implications of CRP is the dependence of the proper time of a charged particle on the electric potential at its location. In the present paper we consider the relevant experimental facts gathered up to now, where the latter effect can be revealed. We show that in atomic physics the introduction of this effect furnishes a better convergence between theory and experiment than that provided by the standard approach. Finally, we reanalyze the Moessbauer experiments in rotating systems and show that the obtained recently puzzling deviation of the relative energy shift between emission and absorption lines from the relativistic prediction can be explained by the CRP.

Thomas-Wigner rotation and Thomas precession: actualized approach

We show that the explanation of Thomas-Wigner rotation (TWR) and Thomas precession (TP) in the framework of special theory of relativity (STR) contains a number of points of inconsistency, in particular, with respect to physical interpretation of the Einstein velocity composition law in successive space-time transformations. In addition, we show that the common interpretation of TP falls into conflict with the causality principle. In order to eliminate such a conflict, we suggest considering the velocity parameter, entering into expression for the frequency of TP, as being always related to a rotation-free Lorentz transformation. Such an assumption (which actually resolves any causal paradoxes with respect to TP), comes however to be in contradiction with the spirit of STR. The results obtained are discussed.

Bending of light caused by gravitation: the same result via totally different philosophies

We offer a concise and direct way to derive the bending angle of light (i.e. as generally called, gravitational lensing), while light grazes a star, through the approach suggested earlier by the first author, which is fundamentally based on the energy conservation law and the weak equivalence principle. We come out with the same result as that of the general theory of relativity (GTR), although the philosophies behind are totally different from each other. We emphasize that in our approach, there is no need to draw a distinction between light and ordinary matter, which makes our approach of gravity potentially compatible with quantum mechanics. Furthermore, our equation that furnishes gravitational lensing, also furnishes the result about the precession of the perihelion of a planet. The results obtained are discussed.

Pure bound field corrections to the atomic energy levels and the proton size puzzle

Reinforcement of the puzzle about the proton charge radius r, stimulated by the recent experiments with muonic hydrogen induced news discussions on the subject, and now some physicists are ready to adopt the exotic properties of muon, lying beyond the Standard Model, in order to explain the difference between the results of muonic hydrogen experiments (r=0.84087(39) fm) and CODATA-2010 value r=0.8775(51) fm based on electron-proton scattering and H spectroscopy. In the present contribution we suggest a way to achieve a progress in the entire problem via paying attention on a logical inconsistency of fundamental equations of atomic physics, constructed by analogy with corresponding classical equations without, however, taking into account a purely bound nature of electromagnetic field generated by electrically bound particles in the stationary energy states. We suggest eliminating this inconsistency via introducing some appropriate correcting factors into these equations, which involve the requirement of total momentum conservation in the system of bound particles in the absence of electromagnetic radiation. We further show that this approach allows not only eliminating long-standing discrepancies between theory and experiment in physics of simple atoms, but also yields the same estimation for the proton size in the classic 2S-2P Lamb shift in hydrogen, 1S Lamb shift in hydrogen, and 2S-2P Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen, with the mean value r=0.841 fm. Finally, we suggest the crucial experiment for verification of the validity of pure bound field corrections: the measurement of lifetime of bound moun in meso-atoms with large Z, where the standard calculations and our predictions essentially deviate from each other, and some of the available experimental results (Yovanovitch, Phys. Rev. 117 (1960) 1580) strongly support our approach.

On Lorentz and Einstein-Laub forces in material media

As a continuation of the discussion started in (M. Mansuripur, Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 193901 (2012)), we show that the approach based on Lorentz force law in material media, like Einstein-Laub expression for electromagnetic force, gives relativistically consistent results, when the contribution of hidden momentum is properly accounted for. An expression for the torque on point-like electric/magnetic dipole is derived, which is compatible with both the Lorentz and Einstein-Laub approaches.

Pure bound field theory and structure of atomic energy levels

We continue the analysis of quantum two-particle bound systems we have started in (Kholmetskii, A.L., Missevitch, O.V. and Yarman, T. Phys. Scr., 82 (2010), 045301), where we re-postulated the Dirac equation for the bound electron in an external EM field based on the requirement of total momentum conservation, when its EM radiation is prohibited. It has been shown that the modified expression for the energy levels of hydrogenic atoms within such a pure bound field theory (PBFT) provides the same gross and fine structure of energy levels like the standard theory. Now we apply the PBFT to the analysis of hyperfine interactions and show the appearance of some important corrections to the energy levels (the 1S-2S interval and hyperfine spin-spin splitting in positronium, 1S and 2S-2P Lamb shift in hydrogen), which remedies considerably the discrepancy between theoretical predictions and experimental results. In particular, the corrected 1S-2S interval and the spin-spin splitting in positronium practically eliminate the available up to date deviation between theoretical and experimental data. The re-estimated classic 2S-2P Lamb shift as well as ground state Lamb shift in the hydrogen atom lead to the proton charge radius rp=0.837(8) fm (from 2S-2P Lamb shift), and rp=0.840(24) fm (from 1S Lamb shift), which corresponds to the latest estimation of proton size via the measurement of 2S-2P Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen, i.e. rp=0.84184(67) fm. We also emphasize the universal character of PBFT, which is applicable to heavy atoms, too, and analyze 2S-2P interval in Li-like uranium. We show that the corrections we introduced provide a better correspondence between the calculated and experimental data than that furnished by the standard approach. The results obtained support our principal idea of the enhancement of the bound EM field in the absence of EM radiation for quantum bound systems.

Quantum Mechanical Disclosure of the Classical Adiabatic Constancy of PVg for an Ideal Gas, and for a Photon Gas

Previously, we established a connection between the macroscopic classical laws of gases and the quantum mechanical description of molecules of an ideal gas (T. Yarman et al. arXiv:0805.4494). In such a gas, the motion of each molecule can be considered independently on all other molecules, and thus the macroscopic parameters of the ideal gas, like pressure P and temperature T, can be introduced as a result of simple averaging over all individual motions of the molecules. It was shown that for an ideal gas enclosed in a macroscopic cubic box of volume V, the constant, arising along with the classical law of adiabatic expansion, i.e. PV5/3=constant, can be explicitly derived based on quantum mechanics, so that the constant comes to be proportional to h^2/m; here h is the Planck Constant, and m is the relativistic mass of the molecule the gas is made of. In this article we show that the same holds for a photon gas, although the related setup is quite different than the previous ideal gas setup. At any rate, we come out with PV5/3 hc=constant, where c is the speed of light. No matter what the dimensions of the constants in question are different from each other, they are still rooted to universal constants, more specifically to h2 and to hc, respectively; their ratio, i.e. V1/3 h/mc, interestingly pointing to the de Broglie relationship's cast.

The Ideal Gas Behavior is in Fact Nothing, But a Macroscopic Quantum Mechanical Manifestation

This article mainly consists in the quantum mechanical study of an adiabatically compressed particle, in an infinitely high well, which we conjecture, can be considered as the basis of an ideal gas. Thus we prove that, all the compression energy is, as may be expected, transformed into extra kinetic energy of the particle. This result frames a quantum mechanical definition of an ideal gas. It further helps the elucidation of a paradox.

Mossbauer Experiment in a Rotating System on the Time Dilation Effect

We present results of Moessbauer experiment in a rotating system, which is induced by our recent disclosure (Phys. Scr., 77 (2008) 035302) and which consisted in the fact that a correct processing of Kundig experiment data on the subject gives an appreciable deviation of a relative energy shift dE/E between emission and absorption resonant lines from the standard prediction based on the relativistic dilation of time (that is dE/E=-v2/2c2 to the accuracy c-2, where v is the tangential velocity of absorber of resonant radiation, and c is the light velocity in vacuum). Namely, the Kundig result following the correction we brought to it, is dE/E=-(0.596+/-0.006)v2/c2. In our own experiment we carried out measurements for two absorbers with substantially different isomer shift, which allowed us to make a correction of Moessbauer data to a level of vibrations in the rotor system at various rotational frequencies. As a result we got the estimation dE/E=-(0.68+/-0.03)v2/c2. A deviation from the relativistic formula is discussed.

On a Link between Classical Phenomenological Laws of Gases and Quantum Mechanics

In this paper we find a connection between the macroscopic classical laws of gases and the quantum mechanical description of molecules, composing an ideal gas. In such a gas, the motion of each individual molecule can be considered independently on all other molecules, and thus the macroscopic parameters of ideal gas, like pressure P and temperature T, can be introduced as a result of simple averaging over all individual motions of molecules. It is shown that for an ideal gas enclosed in a macroscopic cubic box of volume V, the constant, in the classical law of adiabatic expansion, i.e.PV^5/3=const, can be derived, based on quantum mechanics. Physical implications of the result we disclose are discussed. In any case, our finding proves, seemingly for the first time, a macroscopic manifestation of a quantum mechanical behavior, and this in relation to classical thermodynamics.

Principle of Local Conservation of Energy-Momentum

Starting with Einstein's theory of special relativity and the principle that whenever a celestial body or an elementary particle, subjected only to the fundamental forces of nature, undergoes a change in its kinetic energy then the mass-energy equivalent of that kinetic energy must be subtracted from the rest-mass of the body or particle, we derive explicit equations of motion for two falling bodies. In the resulting mathematical theory we find that there are no singularities and consequently no blackholes.
