Quantum Jump Model

This document summarizes a theory proposing that motion occurs through a series of discrete "quantum jumps" rather than continuously. It begins by discussing issues with the foundations of quantum mechanics and attempts to develop alternative theories. The proposed theory assumes motion is a sequence of appearances and disappearances of particles in space and time, rather than continuous change in position. This could resolve Zeno's paradoxes about the infinite positions of a moving object. The theory presents the concept of discrete "quantum jumps" rather than continuous motion as a way to understand phenomena like the particle in a box model.

The Theory of Universal Quantum Jump

Mazen Khoder∗
Lebanese University, Faculty of Engineering

This paper proposes a new model of motion that generalizes the concept of ”Quantum Jump”, so
we have been able to deduce the principles of quantum mechanics so that the oddity of the quantum
puzzles becomes easier to understand and interpret, and as a direct verification of this model, this
paper deduces the Lamb shift effect without the need to introduce the concept of vacuum energy
fluctuations.
