Coils, not Rings, Provide a Better Image for Particles and Make Inertia and Movement Feasible

Changing the picture of how rings interact and exist seem to remove many of the carbuncles and a few of the warts on the mnp Model.

The charge structure of an electron is seen as figments making one long filament with a fixed curvature based on two sets of opposition. Figments tend to maintain proximity to other figments of like axis and direction but resist getting too close and so form filaments. A filament tends to maintain a fixed curvature because the tendency to align axis is slightly forward looking and so maintains curvature and the tendency to resist being too close prevents collapse. Closing the smallest feasible 3d sphere may lead directly to quantization and a preferred size. When in a shell, the curvature of the filament may be a little different due to influences of charge and mediators (m's), so I am looking at pure "point" particles for now.

The long filament image also helps with movement and inertia, which was sketched earlier but was dependent on "fixed angular change." I had wondered how rings could maintain themselves when they appeared to need to make very fast angular progress when in the "retrograde" portion of movement and to have varying angles of "attack" and lateral movement and attraction. The drawings of rings with plane parallel to travel should be seen as sections of "coiled filament" rather than "ring" travel. I should not have seen the diagrams as elevations. If the figments in a filament have a uniform angle of travel to the axis of the filament, they will reinforce each others orientation and will move over the surface of the oblate spheroid. Length compression of the spheroid will follow. Changes and waves across the surface of the spheroid will propagate slower as the lateral velocity increases and the longitudinal velocity decreases, in keeping with the Lorentz transformation for measured time. Inertia comes from the angle of travel for each filament to the axis of the filament and the tendency to maintain that angle once achieved and uniform.

The filament model also obviates need for rings to attract each other to maintain the integrity of the electron and allows shell changes while maintaining the unified particle. This new image of a long "stiff" coil feels more in keeping with quantum mechanics and more ready to parasitize that good work.

Early calculations suggested a maximum change in one coil's rotation when on a sphere of radius just above 1.8 times the coil radius, but refinements and programmatic bug squishing have lost that local maximum, at least for one model of coil curvature.

Question:

Is there a measured maximum wavelength for light (and hence a minimum energy and mass for a photon)? A length and minimum mass would help scale the filaments by provided mass/length and lead directly to a filament length for the unit charge. From early numerical investigations of curved filaments over a sphere, it looks like huge numbers of "coils" rather than "rings" will be involved. Such scaling is not really needed now for early investigations but only in late stages of Model development.

Prediction:

Have the Shapiro experiments or in fact any of the light ranging/transit of a large mass experiments looked at occlusion? I suggest that if occlusion occurs when light is traveling near a mass, that it is seen earlier than relativity predicts when the occluding body is headed toward the mass and later than predicted if the body is somehow leaving the mass. (Solar flares are more likely than spaceships, I suppose) If the occluding body is moving transverse to the mass, it will need to be further from the mass to achieve occlusion. Of course, this is based on calculations of expected occlusion. The occluding object will be observed by light traveling the same path as the occluded object. Asked another way, do objects falling into a mass, when viewed from the side, appear to slow a little compared to predictions as they near the mass?

The mnp Model documentation has NOT yet been updated to replace rings with coils. The new terms Axis (Alignment) and Travel (Alignment) rather than the deprecated Spin and Proximity also remain to be folded in. Many of the basic concepts remain, including short distance interaction, recruitment, fields as non-random orientations in the "sea of random figments," rest mass as diminishing toward zero with increasing velocity, and the universal reference frame.

Adventure Awaits
