I must have stated that incorrectly if you came to that conclusion. The fine structure constant is very important as we have always accepted. My comment is toward Mills' theory and the emphasis on the 1/137 state. I want to understand why his theory truncates at 1/137 instead of the continuation toward 1/infinity. It would be beautiful if his orbitspheres continued in that manner and no special fractional state at 1/137 is anticipated.

I would much rather have the series continue indefinitely as I have been discussing. i.e. (1/2,1/3,...1/137,1/138...1/infinity) which would blend nicely with the other integer portion that we all assume is real. If the total series is found to be valid, then there is no special consideration needed for the 1/137 term. But, we must abide by natural laws and most times they do not care what we prefer. :( Dave -----Original Message----- From: Eric Walker <[email protected]> To: vortex-l <[email protected]> Sent: Sun, Jan 26, 2014 4:12 pm Subject: Re: [Vo]:Mills's theory On Sun, Jan 26, 2014 at 12:55 PM, James Bowery <[email protected]> wrote: The theory is a photon like zitterbewegung model describing states that retain locality in phase space with circular cycles of a trapped photon representing the usual eigenstates. The Maxwell quanta hbar(c) becomes a classical angular momentum quanta in phase space with quantum number 137 attached. Ah, gotcha. Thank you. Hence also the electron "becoming a photon" as it approaches the lowest level. Now we have to decide whether we can live with a series { 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, ..., 1/136, alpha(N) }. (Or something like that.) Eric
