However, as long as one is "tapping in the dark", one shouldn't keep
claiming that one's ideas can explain all about that topic!!!!! As you
keep doing!!!!!

Yes. I did it quantitatively. You did, too. Your calculation was wrong.

You still haven't told me why the distance should be
     d = sqrt(E/2)^2 + (E/2)^2),
BTW.

Not necessary. Quite elementary geometry. See my post.

Wrong. As I pointed out, the distance is two times the
height of the triangle in my figure here:
<http://www.rzuser.uni-heidelberg.de/~bfeuerba/triangle.jpg>

The result is:
   d = 2 * x/sqrt(3),
and that is approx. 1.15 * x. For x = 2 A, you get
   d = 2.3 A.
Not 1.5 A.

> and the tripple bond (while 3 legs are touching)

Wrong again.

That distance is, as I pointed out, 2 * a/sqrt(24) (where
a is the side length of the tetrahedron now, not the side length
of the cubic cell), which gives together with x = sqrt(6) * a / 4:
   d = 2 x / 3,
i.e. d = 1.33 A for x = 2 A.

Could you please try learning some elementary geometry?

Right. Which you fooled up.

We can't read your mind. Be a bit more careful with what

Not your "findings". Your *assertions*.

Huh? How should they do that?

Could you please stop the "say" and give some specific
numbers to which you stand, for a change?

And again, not "find", but "assert".

Err, this "smearing" is indeed observed in experiments which
measure the electron density.

Einstein was shown to be wrong on this. Live with it.

In contrast, you have 200 percent self confidence...

Who are you to doubt the findings and opinions of several
hundreds of thousands of physicists?

Is everyone beside Einstein simply a parrot?

Yes, indeed.

The results which are obtained agree with the experiments. How is that
hand waving?

What do you mean when you say "describe and calculate an element"?
The spectra of all the elements are well-known and can indeed be
calculated by QM, AFAIK.

You still rely on something which someone (Franz, IIRC) told you
long ago and which you totally misunderstood.

No, the "excuse" is: we don't need it.

Says the one who doesn't understand QM.

And you are not aware of how much *was* achieved by QM.

ROTFL!!!!!

Projection,, I would say.

Please explain how the observations fit your model of the electron.

Please explain what mistakes were made.

Please explain what was taken for granted.

Err, he talked about the *density* (the charge density), not about
positions.

Electron densities can also be measured e.g. by X-ray scattering.

Yes, for example.

No. The resolution would be too bad.

Huh??? "wvwn"????? "deviate the positions"?????

What trajectories?????

Huh?????

No, because no one says that there should be ones.

We *have* tools to measure the charge density. The results contradict you.

Wrong.

There are no "92 pure element lattices". What on earth do you mean?

The 14 bravais lattices which Lothar Brendel mentioned are all the
lattices which are *possible* in nature (due to geometry).

> not on their endless compounds

No one mentioned any compounds here. What on earth are you talking about?

> do we speak about the same thing ??

Yes.

> please give me examples of those 14 structures

They can be found in any book on solid state physics. Or simply Google
for the term. This gives e.g. this result:
<http://www.york.ac.uk/depts/chem/course/studhand/bravais.html>

These 14 unit cells give all the lattices which are possible in nature.

Yes.

Too lazy for a simple Google search yet again, I see.

What was that above about "we have to study it first"? Why didn't you
follow your own advice?
