Abstract

 
 
 This article proposes that an unexpected approach to the mathematics of a Schro ̋dinger wave packet and Quantum Electro-Dynamics (QED), could vastly simplify how we perceive the world around us. It could get rid of most if not all quantum weirdness. Schro ̋dinger’s cat would be gone. Even things that we thought were unquestionably true about the quantum world would change. For example, the double slit experiment would no longer support wave particle duality. Experiments that appeared to say that entangled particles can communicate instantaneously over great distances, would no longer say that. Although the tiny mathematical change is counterintuitive, Occam’s razor dictates that we consider it because it simplifies how we view Nature in such a pervasive way. The change in question is to view a Schro ̋dinger wave packet as part of a larger Elementary Wave traveling in the opposite direction. It is known in quantum mechanics that the same wave can travel in two countervailing directions simultaneously. Equivalent changes would be made to QED and Quantum Field Theory. It is known in QM that there are zero energy waves: for example, the Schro ̋dinger wave carries amplitudes but not energy.
 
 
Highlights
Under certain specialized circumstances a Schrődinger wave packet would pop out from inside this plane wave, and move to the right.[Boyd 2012 through 2020c; Little 1996, 2000 & 2009] Such a plane wave that carries within it a trigger mechanism for the sudden emergence of a Schrődinger wave packet https://rajpub.com/index.php/jap moving in the opposite direction, is called an “Elementary Wave” which we denote by the letter Æ
When we look at the target screen in a double slit experiment, what are we looking at? According to Theory of Elementary Waves (TEW) we are looking at a picture of wave interference in proximity to the particle gun
This article presents a new way of thinking about the mathematics of a Schrődinger wave packet and Quantum Field Theory (QFT)
Summary
Https://rajpub.com/index.php/jap moving in the opposite direction, is called an “Elementary Wave” which we denote by the letter Æ (pronounced “ash”) With the Æ the Schrődinger wave packet is usually absent, so we normally would see only a one dimensional plane wave moving to the left. Usually involving collision with a particle, a Schrődinger wave packet abruptly emerges from inside the Æ and carries the particle to the right. In this model there is no wave particle duality. If Schrődinger waves are zero energy waves, we are expanding the boundaries of that concept to include a plane wave moving in the opposite direction. His friends view this author as a cartoonist, not as a serious mathematician
