Abstract


New Proton and Neutron Models

This article extends the concepts developed in previous papers, alternatives to special theory of relativity, to generate magnetic forces of sufficient magnitude to replace the conventional concepts of the strong forces in nuclear physics.

The proton model consists of a spinning sphere of extremely small radius and extremely high perimeter speed, speed exceeding the speed of light. This speed is shown to be permissible in a sphere with constant rate of rotation. The result is a large magnetic flux and an intense magnetic field. This field provides binding force attraction between protons.

The proton magnetic flux induces a spin in an electron deforming the electron into a rotating ring. The rotating electron ring encircles the spinning proton to form a neutron. The magnetic force keeps the plus and minus charge apart.

This paper makes use of published values of spin angular momentum, magnetic moments, and beta decay energy. It also uses the classical laws of conservation of angular momentum and energy and the equivalence of mass and energy.
