Abstract

Abstract A free electron moving with velocity v≪c is enveloped in the electron positron lattice (epola) by an accompanying wave (AW), which has the de Broglie wavelength ΛB = h/mev, and also a channel diameter ΛB. There are 1043 m−3 allowed discrete values of ΛB and v in the epola. In solids, due to the strong interaction of the conduction electrons with the lattice, the conduction electrons have only one allowed state per atom, or 1029 m−3. Hence, between two allowed states in the solid there are in average 1014 allowed epola states. Interactions between certain AW's and the solid lattice may open some of these states to the conduction electrons. They then become free as in the epola and unrestricted by space charge as in the ionic matrix of metals. Conditions are discussed for the occurrence of such superconductive transitions in different classes of solids.
