Hi,
I believe I can make a case for Mills' Hydrinos not violating
Heisenberg's
Uncertainty principle.
The latter states:
delta p_x x delta x >= h_stripe / 2
The position is actually the position on the path followed by the
particle as it
follows it's momentum vector (as indicated by the "x" subscript
attached to the
"p").
For Mills Hydrinos, that path is around the circumference, not
radial.
The constraint applies in any dimension chosen.
True, but one is not free to choose the radial direction, because
that is
perpendicular to the path of the electron (and hence it's
momentum). IOW
whatever dimension one chooses, both momentum and distance must lie
along the
same vector, but there is no movement in the radial direction,
hence it is
trivially irrelevant.
If that were true then the de Broglie wavelength would be irrelevant
to any consideration and interference would be impossible because the
de Broglie wavelength existence would only be in the direction of
travel. Interference is due to the *lateral* wave extension, not
longitudinal.
The HUP limitations apply in any (i.e. every) direction you might
chose, and the de Broli wavelength extends in all directions. If a
particle is constrained to a small volume then it exerts a pressure,
so increasing the confinement results in increasing the pressure,
which requires energy, and since the situation is constrained by E*
(detla t) = h/(4Pi),
Correction: the above should say: "the time confined to a small
volume is energy limited unless some supply of energy is available to
create the state of confinement."
