Having known why there are quantum states applied in quantum chemistry

The dynamic mechanism making photons get their speed from electron emitting them
------------------------------------------------ by Bingcheng Zhao

All the professional people working in the area of quantum chemistry must have known quantum mechanics (QM), simply because quantum chemistry is an application of QM; they are also familiar with the fact that QM does not and cannot solve the fundamentally important problem of why there are quantum states (as a matter of fact, QM does not and cannot know why there are quantum states ---- being a well-known and undeniable fact). As a result, many insightful and pondering professional people working in the area of quantum chemistry may often ask the fundamentally important questions as following. (1) Can we discover the physical law that ultimately solves the problem of why there are quantum states by revealing the quantum mechanism of why and how photons get their velocity from the electron emitting them? (2) After discovering this physical law, can we have essentially much better quantum chemistry? (3) After discovering the physical law that ultimately solves the problem of why there are quantum states, will there be an essential revolution in quantum chemistry? Those fundamentally important questions have been answered in the newly discovered and verified law of orbiting electron periodic impulse emitting photons (OEPIEP law) for the first time in the history of physics and science (P. 193 ~ 214, Ch.2A, reference #1).

The law of orbiting electron periodic impulse emitting photons (OEPIEP law): the newly discovered OEPIEP law dynamically reveals the mechanism of why and how the entire motion of a photon-emitting electron consists of two simultaneously existing composite movements, orbiting and periodic impulse closely around its equilibrium orbit position (i.e., an orbiting electron simultaneously undergoes periodic impulse — alternately and closely passing inside and outside the position of its equilibrium orbit). The dynamics of OEPIEP law reveals: over one complete period of an electron impulse, there is one moment at which the instantaneous maximum velocity of the electron is equal to the speed of light c in vacuum at the sharp turning point on its path closely inside its equilibrium orbit, where a photon is emitted from the electron. As a result, photons inherit the instantaneous maximum velocity c from the electron emitting them, maintaining and moving away at velocity c (P. 193 ~ 214, Ch.2A, reference #1). The newly established core dynamic equation of OEPIEP law is on P. 203 as Eq (2-18) (2.4.3, Ch.2A, reference #1).

The newly discovered OEPIEP law has been systematically verified from different aspects (P. 256 ~ 258, 3.4.3, Ch.3A; P. 272 ~ 273, 3.6.2, Ch.3A; P. 280 ~ 282, 3.7.3, Ch.3B, reference #1).

The fundamentally profound implications of OEPIEP law: OEPIEP law solves the most fundamental problem in quantum physics, why there are quantum states, by revealing the quantum mechanism of why and how photons get their velocity from the electron emitting them. OEPIEP law also discovers the dynamic mechanism behind the speed of light c, and reveals the mechanism behind Einstein’s famous assumption that “photon remains localized in space as it moves away from the source with a velocity c”.

The profoundly fundamental roles of OEPIEP law: OEPIEP law is the fundamentally indispensable foundation for establishing the essentially important electron-photon work-energy relation (equation) (P. 252 ~ 258, 3.4, Ch.3A, reference #1), crucially important electron-photon momentum relation (equation) (P. 258 ~ 271, 3.5, Ch.3A, reference #1), and practically important electron-photon wavelength relation (equation) (P. 271 ~ 273, 3.6, Ch.3A, reference #1). OEPIEP law dynamically thus mechanistically and essentially unifies the wave-particle dual natures of light by revealing the dynamic mechanism behind its dual natures (P. 218 ~ 222, 2.7, Ch.2B, reference #1).

The great applications of OEPIEP law: OEPIEP law reveals the mechanism and essence behind high-temperature superconductivity (thus solving the long-term unsolved mechanistically important problem of high-temperature superconductivity) (P. 229 ~ 231, 2.9.2, Ch.2B, reference #1). OEPIEP law reveals the dynamic mechanism behind photoelectric effect for the first time in the history of physics and science (P. 227 ~ 229, 2.9.1, Ch.2B, reference #1).
