“BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATE: ANOTHER ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF MY ATOMIC MODEL.”


“Our observation of nature must be diligent, our reflection profound, and our experiments exact. We rarely see these three means combined; and for this reason, creative geniuses are not common.” [Denis Diderot]
One introductory word before we get into a highly demanding imaginative exercise:
To make things easier for you in the understanding of what I’m going to “prove” [in theoretical terms naturally] I strongly suggest you to read [and if you already has it then go back and revise once again] my article “Rediscovering the atomic model (part II). It is imperative the understanding of harmonics and their [theoretical “infinite] projection in space.
It’s origin.
The original work of an Indian physicist named Satyendra Nath Bose and the later participation of Einstein in the expanding of his original calculations favored the prediction of what we call today “BEC.”
The original view of the phenomenon was that if few atoms ware cooled to very low temperatures [a few millionth of as a degree above absolute temperature] we would see no difference in their behavior as independent atoms, instead we would see them acting as one. In other words, the vibrations observed between them will cease to exist once heat was removed from the equation.
I don’t want you to get confuse with what I’m going to say next so read it slowly as I’ll try to write it at the same speed. Since back then Einstein and Bose merely spoke about stopping the chaotic movement between atoms of the batch [molecules], many other interpretations have been included into the original arguments. Such interpretation is that all the atoms in the batch will acquire the exact same quantum mechanical characteristics. This specific detail will be discussed later on in this article so let’s continue with the mysterious anomaly.
In 1997 [after a series of previous experiments done in the field] three physicists, Steven Chu, Claude Cohen-Tannoudji and William Phillips were awarded with the Noble Prize in physics for the develop of a technique to obtain a BEC.
I will resume what I read in the book titled ‘Recent advances and issues in physics’ written by David E. Newton. [Mr. Newton had received a doctorate in science education from Harvard University].
According to his article, atoms in the batch were cooled as they were “bombarded” with laser beams. So far so good! Now this is the part I want you to pay close attention to, I quote:

“A laser beam consists of photons that, because of their motion, have a certain momentum. When a photon strikes an atom, it transfers some of that momentum to the atom. If the photon and atom are traveling in the same direction, the collision increases the speed of the atom. If the photon collides with the atom head-on, it decreases (slows down) the speed of the atom.” [End of quote].

Can you see the NEWTONIAN-“macro-world”-like-absurd type of ANALOGY written here?
Could you make a different between this sort of discussion and the one [highly criticized by me] in “Rediscovering the atomic model (part III) when I revisited the Compton effect?
Is this kind of argument a true quantum mechanical one?
The so-called vibration between atoms and molecules of different atoms is the result of HARMONICS well beyond “electronic orbital”! Since I described quarks, protons and electrons as spinning harmonics with a same origin [I don’t recall ever putting an “end” to those energy projections beyond electronic levels]. A similar dichotomy is observed in the spectrum of the hydrogen atom. The energy levels get closer together as we get far away from the so-called “ground state” but it never touch each other. I don’t know if you are able to see the “connection” between the nature of “tunneling” (as I had previously depicted) with the origin of those “far-projective harmonics.” Anyway! Atoms find a clever way to assume their lower energy state while trying to achieve couplings with neighboring atoms, an issue we all know about. But the true reason of those “vibrations” is hidden in the imbalance between lower energy harmonics moving across atoms in the coupling in higher radius. It’s pretty easy to see, let me try again! We know that the bonding between atoms occurs between couplings within the SCALE of “electrons.” If we assumed the existence of yet another SCALE that spreads way further than those “electronic harmonics” then, what would be the result of such confrontation?
Obviously an overlapping of energies existing in two different SCALES will take place in both bonded atoms as a result. It is this anomaly and not an [unexplained] alleged “dynamic energy,” what’s responsible for those vibrations. Phonons are the direct product of those overlapping harmonics occurring between atoms and the corresponding “modulation” of heat taking place inside them.
THIS IS LADIES AND GENTLEMEN A QUANTUM MECHANICAL DESCRIPTION OF REALITY!
It wasn’t a series of “head-on” collisions what eventually “stopped” the process of vibrations between them, but the absorption of E-M energy from the photons traveling on the laser beam what finally did it. As E-M energy from those photons was taking place inside those harmonics, both HEAT and MASS were replaced by ENERGY. Atoms were obtaining an external ENERGY that would eventually render unnecessary further couplings between them. Since the ENERGY of laser photons is one and the same, every atom participant of the batch was assuming the same quantum mechanical characteristics.
Allow me to quote again the author’s words to make you see my point:

“… In addition, each laser was “tuned” to the frequency of the atoms in the sample. That is, the frequency at which an atom was traveling was exactly matched by the frequency of the laser beam. In this way, the atom absorbed all the energy carried by the laser beam, causing it to slow down as efficiently as possible.” [End of quotation].

SEE IT? 40-millionth of a degree above zero was obtained just with laser cooling alone! Heat as mass are part of MATTER as the only way “available” for ENERGY in the avoidance of the PERFECT VACUUM.
If they managed to substitute ENERGY for the spinning MASS AND HEAT present in the coupling, a new form of MATTER [never seen on Earth before] will be artificially created! However, the universe was not cheated this time either. The RULE was never violated! The perfect VACUUM was never reached!
When I speak about the perfect vacuum I’m referring to a place in space where absolutely no ENERGY, MASS or HEAT (in any possible manifestation of them) ought to be present. BEC is the achievement of an atomic structure with the absence of MASS AND HEAT inside it. A great experimental result followed by a gross theoretical misunderstanding.
