Electron Clouds and Pilot Waves

In my blog post on the Pilot Wave Theory, I pointed out how well this idea fits the ideas laid out in my book on physics. The way I explain the Double Slit Experiment fits the Pilot Wave Theory exactly.

However, the Double Slit Experiment is not the only phenomenon that the Pilot Wave Theory can explain. The curious shape of the electron clouds around atomic nuclei can also be explained by this theory.

Electrons bouncing off of a nucleus will have a pilot wave accompanying them, just as much as a free electron moving through the ether. However, the pilot wave accompanying a bouncing electrons is not merely a disturbance. The ether surrounding the electron will oscillate in harmony with the bounce of the electrons. The atom, and its surrounding ether becomes an oscillating whole.

The electron clouds are not the electrons themselves, but the electrons and their surrounding oscillating ether.

For large atoms, with multiple layers of surrounding electrons, we get a complex hierarchy of oscillating, mutually repelling clouds, that are all attracted to the positively charged atomic nucleus.

An ether made up of low energy neutrinos and photons, as suggested in my book, would explain all of this.

Such an ether can explain the electrical force, the magnetic force, the double slit experiment and the electron clouds around atomic nuclei.
