Guys, a few things may be coming together here, first I must admit I was thinking more like hydrino orbitals not Robin's explanation where the proton orbits the electron for IRH... this was new to me BUT a good lesson, I went looking for info on IRH and trying to imagine what Robin meant by a "stuck electron" to allow this proton to perform orbitals around it.. I found the below paper that defines IRH as only becoming possible beneath a certain critical distance to metal surfaces and I thought back to my own posits of relativistic hydrogen atoms where the nucleus is displaced on the temporal axis allowing the orbital to close smaller and smaller "behind" the nucleus... what if this "displaced" smaller orbital does become captured in the metal surface while the well down to the proton persists? Would this give you both the "stuck" property and force the proton to twist around in an orbital because the electron becomes fixed?- The dynamical properties of a Rydberg hydrogen atom between two parallel metal surfaces* http://iopscience.iop.org/1674-1056/20/3/033401
I could see this state persisting for as long as the electron is anchored but would expect a normal orbit to return once the electron escapes from the metal surface or the proton break away as an ion. I guess if a pair of these IRH formed a compound while escaping the metal surfaces that caused this state they might persist with electrons bound in a covalent knot and the protons keeping each other from returning to normal but I still wouldn't expect it to be permanent and would expect it to disassociate easier than a normal molecule.

All this is fine, but what does it have to do with what I wrote here below? (BTW I'm no great believer in IRH, I just wrote my opinion of how it might work, if it turns out to be correct.) > > >On Thu, Aug 8, 2013 at 6:32 PM, <mix...@bigpond.com> wrote: > >> In reply to Roarty, Francis X's message of Wed, 7 Aug 2013 18:23:01 +0000: >> Hi Fran, >> >> In IRH, the proton orbits the electron. >> >> The vastly larger mass of the proton is why the orbit is much smaller.
