> Furthermore, when it reaches the end of the line, and is only doing a single orbit for H[n=1/alpha], the group velocity of the electron is traveling at the speed of light, which is exactly what Mills predicts ... Well, there's the rub. At least according to the skeptics, and from day-one. Anything approaching this situation - (which can be restated as repeated doubling and redoubling of the group velocity of the electron)- would end up being endothermic, not exothermic. Therefore this cannot be correct, can it? ... since the electron has substantial mass; not only is pushing that much mass to lightspeed, or even close ... totally out of the question, since the electron would then have more mass-energy equivalent then the nucleus itself - but where would the energy required to do this - be coming from?
