Derivation of the Fine Structure Constant from Hydrogen Atom Dynamics Using de Broglie Wave Mechanics.
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: We present a novel derivation of the fine structure constant α through analysis of hydrogen atom dynamics using de Broglie wave mechanics. Starting from the fundamental wave-particle relationship λ = h/p, we develop a framework connectingmomentum uncertainties, energy variations, and electromagnetic interactions to arrive at the dimensionless constant α= 2πKe^2/hc.
