Re: Ghost Electron Orbital & Compton Scattering question

Hi,

Before measurement, electron doesnt exist as particle in
the atomic orbital but more like ghost. Only in measurement
does the electron materializes as particle. This is what
Schroedinger, Born and the Grandfathers of Quantum
Mechanics discovered that formed the Copenhagen Interpretation.
In compton scattering, photon collides with the electron in the
atom. How can this occur when the electrons are ghosts and
photon is a particle? Unless it's more photon colliding with
probability? Or probability colliding with probability? Is
this the proper way to think of it?

After reflecting on this. I think this is what happens. When
the photon enters the environment of the atomic orbital
in compton scattering, the matter wave of the electron
detects intrusion, and itt suddenly materializes the electron.
When a photon out of the millions hit such materialized
electron in its designated location, then it signifies a compton
scatter event. is this correct?

But something perflexed me. When the atomic orbital
is not disturbed and there is no electron, just matter
electron wave, how does the wave store the charge
characteristic of the electron? Can a wave store a
charge?
