Just trying to understand this theoretical model... The term "CH" implies, at least to me, that the individual hydrogen atom must still posses a single electron shell regardless of what "ground state" that electron shell is conjectured to exist as. Otherwise it's just a proton - and therefore C would have to "transmute" to the next element in the periodic table: Nitrogen. I guess one of the 64 dollar questions might be: exactly WHERE is this altered hydrogen atom residing in this theorized model. Is it theorized to reside really close to the 12C nucleus, or perhaps farther out, hanging about near one of the electron inner orbital shells. I would imagine that at present most traditional physicists would not bother to give any of this conjecture the slightest bit of attention.
