Atom model of thermally excited Helium

The common thread running through the here presented work may be compiled as physical characterisation of materials, delivering extraordinary basic methods and theories. It concerns different levels of viewing: In the first, fundamental part A, an alternative theory about quantum mechanics is presented, suggesting – analogously to Bohr’s atom model for the Hydrogen atom – well-defined electron trajectories instead of the diffuse ones of the orthodox theory, which is based on Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle. This theory is applied on the Hydrogen molecule and on the Helium atom, delivering empirically verified results. In the second part B, surface characterization methods are described which are relevant in particular for galvanic layers. And in the third part C, the interaction between light and matter is studied, be it with respect to coloured solids or with respect to gases. Initially, in view of the climate change, the interaction of thermal radiation with air and with CO₂ was considered. As a result, the CO₂-related greenhouse theory has to be questioned, not least since pure air warms up by thermal radiation nearly to the same extent as CO₂. As a consequence, an alternative approach is suggested, regarding the colour-dependent light absorption by the Earth surface, in particular by dark roofs and facades in cities. Furthermore, the thermal radiative behaviour of noble gases was explored, delivering the evidence for the quantum mechanical computation.
