If there is someone more opposed to the "particle theory" at least in this forum... gentlemen that person [no offense!] is going to me: ME.
By the "belt level" [orange and green] I can imagine that you're relatively speaking... new here?
Not that it would be a problem at all... my concern is that you are putting words in my mouth that I never intended to say nor that I said it. Perhaps the other possibility is that you either misunderstood my analogies or simply didn't catch them properly and that wouldn't be a problem at all.
The analogy of the "little bright balls" around a circle was a hypothetical and easy-to-catch way for you to "see" that even considering the speed of light "the top velocity" any E-M radiation could "travel" [propagate its energy] its relative speed will depend in the density of the eather encountered in its path.
No one has said that light is a particle nor that is capable of spinning in a circle... (?)
My spinning analogy of a series or levels of energy-waves "circuling" "rotating" around a point was designed to make you [all the members included] what is actually happening inside the atom. Inside the atom there is no light! Inside the atom [at its very core] there is >>> as I have said both here and in my book more than 2 years ago already self-published<<< a structure of multi-layer of spinning patterns [I called it] "Standing Nuclear Waves" produced as the result of the mutual interaction (interference) of spherical waves scaterred from those energy-speks. Humans have detected Gamma rays in the cosmos and they have classified them as the greatest energy measured yet... I'm talking about the same level or deegre of energy only seen "in its naked state" during the "Big-Bang."
What I've stated [for a long time in more than one ocassion] is that energy ...the same energy believed to expand during the event that took place eons ago during the genesis-time is still in its original status... even today!
That huge and powerfull energy has been dispersed into infinitesimally small speks across the universe interacting with eachother and "looking for" a better and more stable state of "affairs." The result of that long process of INTEGRATION among those "energy-speks" I was talking about was done THANKS TO WHAT WE CALL: STANDING WAVES.
If you take a closer look to my thoughts all I have said is that MATTER or MASS is the "side effect" of that "active (life) interaction" that never stops. If you analyzed the complex structure of the pattern created during the physical phenomenon studied under the denomination of "standing waves" you'll find NO PARTICLES AT ALL! all you'll find is: A SPINNING [A THIRD ALMOST "VIRTUAL"] WAVE HIGHLY DEPENDENT FOR ITS EXISTENCE OF THE TWO THAT CREATED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE... Got it?
If you followed my advised and check the computer-animation of "standing waves" in any WEB PAGE chosen at your will, you'll see the spinning pattern I've mentioned to you here. You'll also realized that this is the only [plausible] reason, explanation for the assumed pairs of electrons "hanging around" "nucleons."

And see for yourselves... It would be sad to waste time and words in a misunderstanding.
