On Stability of Atomic Orbitals and a New Theory of Nuclear Forces

Résumé

Quantum mechanics (QM ) only gives a partial explanation of the stability of atomic orbitals. QM saysthat the electrons in an atom exist only in stable, discrete, allowable orbits. But it doesn‟t tell us how theelectron enters such stable orbit in the first place and how it stays there indefinitely. The stability of thenucleus is also one of the unsolved mysteries in physics. What is the force holding protons together in thenucleus, overcoming the tremendous electrostatic repulsive force between them? The strong nuclear forceand the weak nuclear force, two of the supposed four fundamental forces in the universe, have beeninvented to explain nuclear forces. This paper reveals a new theory on how protons can exist together inthe nucleus without invoking any kind of new „force‟. The „weak force‟ naturally arises from the newexplanation for the „strong force‟.
