Electron raceway — horizontal orbital section Side view of the electron's co-rotating raceway in its orbital path around the proton. The electron moves left to right along the raceway channel, surrounded by pilot wave envelopes and counter-rotating edge eddies. The proton nucleus is below, with a force vector showing the centripetal attraction holding the electron in orbit. p+ Substrate pressure imbalance (centripetal) Internal vibration Compton frequency: 1.24 x 10²⁰ Hz Oscillates rest mass into wave Pilot wave envelope Standing wave in the flow channel De Broglie wavelength: h/p Co-rotating raceway Substrate entrained by electron Self-reinforcing flow channel Edge eddies Counter-rotating at channel walls These produce the quantum potential Q Path memory Pilot wave records electron's history Constructive interference = stable orbit Proton (orbital center) Substrate flows inward toward nucleus Pressure imbalance holds electron in orbit Co-rotating pilot wave / raceway Counter-rotating edge eddies
