Abstract
It is claimed that orthodox quantum mechanics (OQM) is not a scientific theory, but a set of computational recipes. Fundamental differences between the pilot wave interpretation (PWI) and OQM, and their experimental consequences are summarized. PWI is modified for a bound particle by accepting only real eigenfunctions of Schrodinger’s time independent equation, in which case the particle is stationary with the electrostatic and quantum force canceling each other. The effect of radiation damping leads to a nonlinear term proportional to ∂2 ln(Ѱ/Ѱ*)/∂ t2 in the first approximation. It is shown that the stationary states are stable with the resonant frequencies given by Bohr’s relation, ωnm = (en – em) /h.
