No, not relativistic. This is an interpretation of Miley, with respect to Lawandy.
It is a dimensional thing. Dense hydrogen only accumulates in two dimensions. After it accumulates, it may move in 3-space as a bound unit, but the effect would be similar to the way Mills' describes the 'orbitsphere' which is 2D but encompassing 3-space as a "wrap-around", essentially. Now let me backtrack - it is possible that time itself is also distorted in 2D, but that is not part of picture, at least not so far. It is fair to ask why an proton can be considered 2D while an H2 molecule is 3D. The best I can tell, this relates to freedom of movement. Lawandy seems to be saying that the proton which is about 1.6 fm in diameter, is essentially 2D since its attachment to a dielectric is via a mirror charge in the dielectric and not "really" atomic at all. Miley takes this further with IRH where electrons do intersperse with protons but NOT in orbitals. It would be helpful if he had used the term 'deflation', but if he did - I missed it. In contrast the Bohr radius is 53 pm, which in effect makes a molecule "thicker" by a factor of 50,000 or far more, depending on orientation. Yes - technically speaking even femtometers is not 2D, since there is some thickness, but apparently it is close enough for practical applications [snip]Based on what is admittedly "too little evidence" my feeling is that first you want "densify" or convert molecules to "pycno" or the "inverse Rydberg state" which is even denser. For some strange reason the molecule does not permit this, but the monatomic atom does permit it and at the normal ground state. Go figure.[/snip] Jones, are you talking relativistic? If molecular bonds oppose conversion to pycno but monatomic atoms do permit the formation of pycno molecules then the only way it could accomplish this and still "remain at the normal ground state" would be from a local perspective in an equivalent relativistic environment. I happen to agree with that interpretation but if you really meant the atom remains at normal ground state from any perspective then I would counter that the pycno or dense molecules are also at normal ground state from their local perspective.
