The Fine and Hyperfine Structure of the Atom
The aetherspace manifests as atomic space.
This leads to the fine any hyperfine structure of the atom.
Bohr’s Quantum Theory Of Line-Spectra Part 2 Section 3 explains the “fine structure” which is based on Sommerfield.
This fine structure explained the splitting of spectral lines in atom from when different energies are applied to it.
This is different from the orbital model of the atom that was accepted before.
That model was based on Newtonian gravity creating orbits by centripetal forces.
Material Superphysics, which is derived from Descartes’ Physics, explains that the splitting of spectral lines is from the property of the aetherspace to separate identities.
The different energy levels changes the states of the aetherspace.
These states follow the 1st Law of Descartes which we call the No Void Rule.
This is why the electron around a nucleus follows different dynamics from planets around a star.
- the planets follow the dynamics of virtual space particles
- electrons follow the dynamics of the aetherspace
The Aetherspace Versus Spacetime
Inside the atom, local motion gives way to true motion due to the lack of spacetime particles which are replaced instead by aetherspace particles.
These replace orbits with quantum levels that rely on state. These are consistent with Descartes’ “superficies” which were called gravitational territories in spacetime. In the aetherspace, Physics are called shells.
We can make an analogy with planetary orbits:
| Attribute | Star-Spacetime | Atom-Aetherspace |
|---|---|---|
| Slave | Planet | Electron |
| Slave Action | Rotation Speed from Spacetime | Spin Direction (vortex rotation) from Aetherspace |
| Path | Orbiting Speed from Spacetime | Orbital Speed (Angular Momentum) from Aetherspace |
- The “fine” structure is the relationality* of the electron’s vortex rotation and its orbital speed in the aetherspace.
- The “hyperfine” structure is the relationality of the electron’s vortex rotation, its orbital speed, and the vortex rotation of the nucleus in the aetherspace.
| Structure | Relationality |
|---|---|
| Fine | electron vortex : electron orbital speed : |
| Hyperfine | electron vortex : electron orbital speed : nucleus vortex rotation |
Superphysics Note
Descartes explained spin as the 1st Element (electrons) being vortices manifesting as corkscrews. These can become longer and larger depending on energy. This creates magnetism when they are all aligned, and tunneling in stars (explained in The World Chapter 9).
Lastly, the emission of hydrogen lines as radiowaves or light is a consequence of the wave-particle nature of the 1st Element which Descartes compared to solid grapes and liquid grape juice.
- The more energy is applied to a bunch of grapes, as feet crushing it, the more it will become liquid juice moving away.
- The less energy, the more it becomes solid grapes staying together.
These then dictate how the electron will jump its shells.
