Richard Feynman On The Fine-Structure Constant
![]() |
| Fine-structure_constant another Number |
Richard Feynman, one of the originators and early developers of the theory of quantum electrodynamics (QED), referred to the fine-structure constant in these terms:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine-structure_constant#Numerological_explanations_and_multiverse_theory)There is a most profound and beautiful question associated with the observed coupling constant, e – the amplitude for a real electron to emit or absorb a real photon. It is a simple number that has been experimentally determined to be close to 0.08542455 (My physicist friends won't recognize this number, because they like to remember it as the inverse of its square: about 137.03597 with an uncertainty of about 2 in the last decimal place. It has been a mystery ever since it was discovered more than fifty years ago, and all good theoretical physicists put this number up on their wall and worry about it.)
Immediately you would like to know where this number for a coupling comes from: is it related to pi or perhaps to the base of natural logarithms? Nobody knows. It's one of the greatest damn mysteries of physics: a magic number that comes to us with no understanding by humans. You might say the "hand of God" wrote that number, and "we don't know how He pushed His pencil." We know what kind of a dance to do experimentally to measure this number very accurately, but we don't know what kind of dance to do on the computer to make this number come out*– without putting it in secretly!

My comments:
* it comes out of the sign-flip algorithm I developed in the early 1980s at University of Cincinnati
The roots of the characteristic equation (Full Rydberg Equation) from the simultaneous solution of the Bohr and SchrΓΆdinger atomic models for a single electron hydrogen atom at 0K gives the fine-structure constant as one of the roots and it can be calculated to any desired precision.

Speed of Light 1900 - 1984 Plus 2022 Ideal Plot
From: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_5sLs_6OR4Aukz0C_BZvikHfNcKEsy9Yzwmd9EOGNTA/edit?usp=sharing
![]() |
| Speed of Light (km/s) vs. Year 1900-2022* *2022 value is from this work, shown for comparison |
In 1983, the speed of light (km/s) was set to:
| 1983 | 17th CGPM, definition of the metre | 299792.458 (exact)[89] | exact, as defined |
Ideal value, c, based on this work:
299779.058km/s <~ 1991 this work (1991 - 2022)
299792.458km/s <~ 1983 decreed / consensus value
So, as shown on chart above, the speed of light just needs to decrease a little.
The meter definition and time reference (cesium atoms? or whatever) one or the other or both can be adjusted to agree with the analysis. (Simultaneous Bohr/SchrΓΆdinger atom solution, lowest energy, single electron hydrogen - using 0˚K hydrogen as a reference).
This can be extended into mass definitions, however, after a little homework...
Note: 13,400 m/s is how much the speed of light has to be reduced to be the ideal theoretical value. This is less than 25% 0f the 90,000 m/s differene between the speed of light in a vacuum and in air due to the index of refraction. Therefore, the correction is 25% of what one would do to correct for air vs. vacuum.
Just saying.
Constants by decree works if there is solid logic behind the decree, practical logic. More thinking required to determine if this work would be a better target for the decree...

The SchrΓΆdinger Wave Equation for the Hydrogen Atom

| See equation 11.10.9 & 11.10.10 in link below. |
See equation 11.10.9 & 11.10.10, the Bohr model and SchrΓΆdinger model are same for lowest energies and single electron hydrogen atom. It’s useful to see both equations- related Bohr Rydberg coefficient to quantum mechanical model (SchrΓΆdinger model):

Will add others later. Have to use 1970+ data since that when they "finalized" the standard model and the trend should match my prediction, the trend appears to agree with h, the Planck constant.
Planck's constant was fixed by decree in 2019 having to do with the mass definition:

So far we've checked 3 of the constants and the trends agree with our prediction/analysis.

5 of 8 have agreed with prediction. Even though h, the Planck constant was set by law (decree) in 2019, scientific forces will be changing that. It was done for defining mass. Now that more is known, mass can be defined using these values and their timebase, if still needed (very likely as I haven't address time, yet).

* need to re-think #9 & #10 since I added those two are based on the others...
Addendum:
"Instead, he believes that physicists should focus on dimensionless quantities, such as the fine-structure constant." from: https://physicsworld.com/a/can-gps-find-variations-in-plancks-constant/
Also, dimensionless proton to electron mass ratio which comes out correctly with this work that addresses the proton radius puzzle and includes the proton radius in the solution...

More about final values later... ...(need to do a little more checking before replacing NIST/CODATA)
“Fundamental physical constants cannot be derived and have to be measured. Developments in physics may lead to either a reduction or an extension of their number: discovery of new particles, or new relationships between physical phenomena, would introduce new constants, while the development of a more fundamental theory might allow the derivation of several constants from a more fundamental constant.
A long-sought goal of theoretical physics is to find first principles (theory of everything) from which all of the fundamental dimensionless constants can be calculated and compared to the measured values.”
Also see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_constantLooks like they might have to update their information.
Comment on the solution (which was derived and discussed in previous posts and papers):
The constants are the roots of the Full Rydberg polynomial - for a single hydrogen atom. Do not reduce the "two wave/particle" system into simply examining the electrons like Feynman did in QED or like Squalid-State (Solid-State for those in Rio Linda)
"The characteristic roots (roots of the characteristic equation) also provide qualitative information about the behavior of the variable whose evolution is described by the dynamic equation.", from:
*modified to print out ALL intermediate values instead of simply the error and final results (see link)
