Alternate atomic models - have you heard of the cubic atomic model

[Franklin Hu]

I found your website: https://structuredatom.org/sa-sam quite interesting.

I also think that electrons are not orbiting an atom and that the atoms are solid combinations of electrons/protons and neutrons.

Please have a look at the model I propose in my paper:

https://franklinhu.com/NPA20CubicAtomicModel.pdf

This is based upon the simple concept that an electron and proton will join together like oppositely charged lego bricks.

This builds up a squarish cubic structure which ends up in an octahedral shape.

I haven't had a change to read your book, if you could send me a copy, I would appreciate it.

Based on my initial impressions, I'm not sure how your model really explains bonding angles. In my model, the exposed electrons form clear bonding angles. For example oxygen presents 2 bonding sites at 90 degrees. It's not clear how spherical packing accomplishes this.

I don't know if you also try to explain ionization energies which have specific patterns of 2, 4 and 8 (see page 7). This more strongly correlates to an octahedral structure rather than a spherical one. Also, most large atoms like gold will form a natural octahedral shape which is likely indicating the actual atomic shape.

Your model explains asymmetric fission, but does require that pieces be separated and recombined. Please have a look at how I handle this problem as a central core for the atom with 4 arms arranged in an X pattern which explains some of the same things.

I am glad to see there are others who are taking seriously a new atomic structure that doesn't involve the notion that electrons are flying about a tiny nucleus. We should be open to as many ideas as possible to fit all the available data, so I would curious to see if you can fit the other data I have mentioned.

Please have a look at my other related papers at:

Of particular interest would be my explanation of why the neutron is a required component of the atom and how it works:

I also explain that the neutron is really just a positron/electron dipole and there are no quarks:

Please let me know what you think.
