The question why refraction takes place at all seems not to be a scientific question. It seems to demand some kind of will from the part of the elementary particle of energy. However, if at the level of elementary particles of energy there are no fundamental forces that cause refraction, there must be a reason why the particles do not move in a straight line.
For quite a while I thought that this reason was that the particles are blocked from a linear path by a particle of energy in front of it, so it will veer off course just because there was something in front of it. This logic led me to assume that the direction of rotation for the particle of energy (dot) is to the opposite direction to where the dot in front of it is.
However, there’s just one problem in the logic: it isn’t true. This became evident when I was drawing arrows for the direction of movement for the dots, and when I turned the arrows facing the direction where I though their rotation was, the movement didn’t math the primary angle of refraction.
At first, I thought I had made a mistake in drawing the rest of the image, but the image looked just fine. So I started rethinking my initial assumption. Of the direction of the rotation and realized it didn’t make any sense.
So, getting back to basics, Newton’s third law of motion states:
To every action, there is always opposed an equal reaction.
In the case of dots, the dot should move in a linear path, unless there is something preventing this linear motion. And this ‘reaction’ comes from the dot in front of it and usually from the dot to the side of it. Except in the case of the first (bottom right) dot in the image, where the speed of the dot happens to be tangential to the axis of the secondary rotation. For the Higgs Boson, this happens only once (or twice, I’m not 100 % sure) during the orbit of a single dot. And this is not assuming there to be no thermal motion (temperature) or any other motion of the Higgs boson as a whole.
The almost silly question is, why won’t the dot then move in a linear path, once it has pushed the dot in front of it aside? Well, the dot in front of it is always in front of it, just at a different orientation to the center of the whole Higgs boson. The dot is trapped in a never-ending helical path, round and round, always at the speed of light.
The next thing for me to do, is not to try to write the equations of refraction without the movement vectors, but instead give an average movement vector to the pair of dots next to each other and determine the locations of the next pair based on the location of the first pair and the average movement vector.
And as an added bonus, I think this should make it possible to calculate the number of dots in a Higgs photon, as well as the diameter of the dot. Knowing the speed of light and the mass of the Higgs boson, it should then be possible to determine the relativistic mass of a single dot.
So, keep your fingers crossed. I’ll let you know how successful I am with this approach as soon as I get the results.
