“…6 Note, that the potential (Coulomb) charges behave like corpuscles, while the kinetic (Lorentz type) charges like waves [12]. This complementary double behaviour (formulated first by Bohr in 1927, then discussed in 1937 [46]) became subject of studies again (cf., [29]).…”

This paper is a continuation of the article "The Isotopic Field-Charge Assumption Applied to the Electromagnetic Interaction". It continues the discussion and consequences of the extended Dirac equation in the presence of isotopic mass and electric charges, and a kinetic gauge field. In compliance with the author's previous papers (Darvas 2009, IJTP 2011, IJTP 2013), there appears a second conserved Noether current in the interaction between two electric charges in the presence of isotopic electric charges and a kinetic field.This second conserved current involves the conservation of the isotopic electric charge spin, and that predicts the existence of quanta of the kinetic field (dions associated with the photons). It is concluded that with the discussed conditions, the electromagnetic interaction should be mediated by photons and their dion partners together. The conclusions give physical meaning, among others, to the electric moment and to a virtual coupling spin.

“…But along the current beginning of the 21 th Century the situation was changed, because the foundations of the Standard Nuclear Physics have been losing credibility face to several experimental findings, denying them, as for instance the discovery that even-even nuclei at the ground state have ellipsoidal shape, and this is impossible from its foundations. Besides, Bohr's Complementarity experienced a hard blow [18], invalidating the philosophical viewpoint that physical phenomena require different structures to produce them.…”

Abdus Salam and his co-workers proposed the concept of strong gravity in the 1960s, as an alternative to the young QCD, so that to solve the puzzles concerning to confinement and asymptotic freedom, not requiring, as occurs in QCD, to abandon the behavior of a force acting from the inverse-square law. At that time asymptotic freedom in QED was observed by some theorists, and by Gerard't Hooft in 1972, whose physical significance however was realized only one year later by David Gross, Frank Wilczek and David Politzer. They "rehabilitated" the Quantum Field Theory, because prior to their discovery it was under suspicion, since Coulomb interactions become infinitely strong at very short distances. But this approach has not so far led to a Grand Unified Theory. Then we are forced to think whether the "rehabilitation" is possible by other alternative, rather than by asymptotic freedom, because there are so many unacceptable puzzles in nuclear physics, that they oblige us to conclude that some of the fundamental principles of the nuclear theory are wrong. Therefore, if some principles of the nuclear theory are wrong, it is possible that the "rehabilitation" must be sought in the atomic nucleus, as proposed herein.

“…For instance, the shell model considers that all protons and neutrons are distributed in a shell, while other models consider that protons and neutrons are distributed in several layers around the center of the nuclei. In order to justify why the incompatible models can be applied in SNP without invalidate the philosophical aspect of the theory, the nuclear theorists use an argument based on the Bohr's Principle of Complementarity, because, according to their argument, thanks to Bohr's principle (Rabinowitz, 2013) incompatible models can be used in a theory. However, the year of 2012 was dramatic for the nuclear physics, and other new experiment invalidated the Bohr's principle Therefore, the SNP lost its philosophical coherence.…”

Re-evaluation of Fermi’s theory of beta-decay

Another published paper of the author proposes that proton and neutron radii have contraction inside the atomic nuclei, generating a discrepancy of 8s between the neutron lifetime measured in beam and bottle experiments. According to the present theory, the neutron radius in beam experiments dilates from 0.26fm up to 0.87fm during the initial 8s, after which begins the process of decay. The present paper proposes a new neutron model with quark structure d(u-e-u), with an electron sandwiched between two up quarks. It reproduces very well all neutron properties, as for instance the radial charge distribution, impossible to be reproduced considering the current quark model ddu. So, the radial charge distribution of neutrons (obtained from beam experiments, if measured in the first initial 8 seconds of their lifetime) has to exhibit a curve a little different of that measured in 2007 in the Jefferson Lab. Here is proposed to JLab to repeat the experiment under such new condition.
