Interference states of electron in local space

Abstract

The use of the dielectric approach proposed by Tamm and Frank makes it possible to describe the states of the electron in both macroscopic volumes and in large orbits of a hydrogen-like atom in terms of the general principle with allowance for interference. A result of this consideration is the explanation of the existence of large Rydberg orbits in a condensed medium. At the same time, the sewing of the macroscopic and microscopic scales allows the use of the results of description of certain systems for insight into other systems. In particular, a signature of a decrease in energy loss by an electron in the interference state is the narrowing of the loss line, and the complete absence of the energy loss by the electron is possible if another independent condition—spatial resolution of the size of a travelling charge—is imposed on the interference conditions.
