A model for intermediate quasi-molecular state and variants of chemical element synthesis

Abstract

In the present work, the simplest quasi-classic model of intermediate quasi-molecular state (IQS) is discussed. From the one hand, the model is based upon Bohr’s idea about a binding electron orbit of hydrogen molecule having a round form with the orbital plane orthogonal to the section connecting the nuclei. From the other hand, the model permits coupling of electrons (with opposite spins) owing to non-potential contact interaction that had been introduced in hadronic mechanics of Santilli. In order to underline the specifics of the results of such interactions, term “isoparticles” is used in hadronic mechanics. Using a pair of bivalent oxygen ions, it is shown that the simplest model allows drawing the nuclei together until critical distances Rc ≈ 10-13 m. In the discussion of the results, an additional possibility of element synthesis for IQS is noted. This possibility is connected with exchange of virtual isopositron-isoelectron pairs between the near-coming nuclei. The upper level of such interaction radius [Rint]max corresponds to Rc ≈ 10-13 m in the case of exchange of virtual positroniums (with rest energy ≈ 1 MeV), while the lower level [Rint]min ≈ 10−15 m is realized in the case of virtual π0-mesons interchange. As soon as in hadronic mechanics π0-meson is interpreted as a bonded state of isopositron and isoelectron (with rest energy ≈ 135 MeV), the offered mechanism of exchange naturally allows the existence of virtual pairs with energies ε in the interval 1 MeV < ε < 135 MeV. Therefore, by achievement of IQS, the channel for new elements synthesis opens and does not require decomposition of the initial nuclei till α-particles with their following synthesis at opposing motion towards common center of attraction.
