On the existence of independent wave energies that are devoid of particles

ORAL

Abstract

A perfect mirror, experimentally and theoretically, has been shown to reflect a photon with probability 1, but transmits part of its wave energy; this paper shows a photon to lose 1/8 of its energy out of a 50:50 beam splitter, hence impacting interferometry and quantum communication, by refining our previous proof (APS April Meeting, 2020) of the energy ratio 3:1 between particle and wave of a quanton: A closed electromagnetic wave ball B of radius R has its energy densities, for all r in (0,R], in one spin cycle, move radially toward the ball center OB from r to r/e, by the zero sum of the radially released potential energy and the rotational kinetic energies, with the integral of the divergence of the gravitational force produced by the wave energies in B yielding a point energy at OB that is 3 times as the wave energy; i.e., B is a vortex of spiraling wave energy with OB as the sink creating a point particle.
