Electrons Don't Spin

I didn't even know that the speed of light had a nature! Please elucidate!

This reminds me of a certain physics lecture in college. At some point, the professor said: "and therefore, obviously...". Unfortunately, I was either too timid, or too stupid, or both, to stand up and say: "NO sir! It is NOT obvious!".

Very little of the above video was "obvious", to me...

Loop the video and watch it a few more times, maybe something will occur to you...How might this relate to dark matter? Photons, duality, a particle and a wave...It's a thinking exercise, our thoughts need not be the same....the more angles we can get, the more opportunity to advance...

"..the more angles we can get, the more opportunity to advance...'

Well, we have 720 degrees for one 'spin count' of an electron. In how many angles can we divide that?

Relation to dark matter? Not much I would think...

The latest kids on the dark matter block are classical phonons* created in superfluidity of some unknown, lightweight particle.

* A phonon is the quantum of sound in the form of coherent density waves...

...and an aspirin is a good remedy for a headache...

I somehow have the impression (or read it somewhere) that, like "charm" and "color" for quarks, "spin" is an arbitrary term that doesn't exactly imply ordinary rotation.

The video has it backwards. The electrons do spin, but they do not orbit a nucleus. They are set and positioned in the nucleus just like the proton and neutron.

They spin at a angular velocity of c, but you can not calculate that velocity or the momentum, because the rotation is NOT a pi rotation. But it can be calculated from the rpm of rotation....which is the DC frequency of the spin. That DC F has a wobble, and that wobble gives the rpm. The rpm sets and controls all the properties one can measure from a charge. And being that the circumference of the spin is at constant c velocity, the circumference has to change length, in order to change that rpm. Faster rpm, the higher energy, but the smaller the size of spin is. Less energy, bigger size spin. TO KEEP constant c. Unlike macro objects, particles balloon out and balloon in with energy.

If one to put a detector at the side of the spin, every rotation of the charge, is one e of current. Even though the charges are equal e's.......the electron would measure about 17-18 amps. The proton would measure about ~30,000 amps.

Both with one e of charge.

The speed of light comes from that constant V of c. IF the charge spun at a different V, the EM propagation would have that V.

And visi versa......if the V was higher the c.....then the propagation V would be too.

The circumference of any charge, can only be set at certain lengths. This simple mechanical property, is where the "quantum" fairy tale comes from.

When a particle expands or contracts at these certain radii, they do it at a rate of 2 times c. Because, each half of the spin, changes at the same time. This cuts the spinning field from the charge and cast them straight out...causing an emission. For longer waves than x-ray, particle dipoles are needed. For longer fields.

Instant intermittence. Not continuous like media waves.

An antenna is not a speaker, it's more like an inverted ignition coil. It instantly collapses out......instead of in.

That's my thinking of it.

I know that many of the things I learned about physics ≈60 years ago have been proven inadequate or even wrong, but I find most of this post nonsensical!

If the electrons were in the nucleus, how would you explain discrete electron energy levels?

I understand c as a value measured in units of distance over time; it says nothing about rotation or spin. It says nothing about any angle or angular velocity unless referring to an object revolving about a point outside the object.

What is a DC frequency? By definition, DC has no frequency.

Etc...

What can this tell us about the nature of the speed of light?

The only connection I saw to the speed of light was that an electron's magnetic moment cannot be explained as a physical spinning of a charged object. If it were a spinning charged ball, its "surface" would move faster than the speed of light. So it has an intrinsic angular momentum, or magnetic field, but not because it is physically spinning.

The Stern-Gerlach experiment seems to affect electrons in a similar way that a calcite crystal affects photons of light. It acts not only as a detector of spin, but also a generator. The electrons (or silver atoms) coming out of the G-S device are spin aligned up or down, just as photons coming out of the calcite crystal are completely polarized into two perpendicular directions, say horizontal and vertical.

It's the way Quantum Physics works in that when you measure the spin angle of an electron or the polarization of a photon, you have to pick a direction first and then the answer is yes or no. And then, when it exits the device, the electron or photon is aligned with the direction you selected, erasing whatever it's previous alignment was.

It all boils down to the illogic of the wave-particle duality. A light wave polarized at an angle of θ with respect to a polarizer detector axis would have it's electric field reduced by cos(θ) and energy reduced by cos²(θ). Considered as photons, each photon would randomly pass the polarizer with a probability of cos²(θ). If it does pass, it will be polarized in the direction of the polarizer axis.

Whenever theory and model A,(Parson's Magneton) can physically explain the "innate" properties and constants of theory and model B(the standard model and QM)........theory A has the supremacy.

That's called science. But there has not been any standards in science for many decades.

Parson's Magneton, the zenith of classical physics. The physical understanding of mass and matter.

And from that, the true understanding of light.

Time and length are constant everywhere all the time.

The answer is 42⁴.

I couldn't give a flip. It doesn't tell us anything about the speed of light and not much about the electron.
