Description

Conceptual insights from the density functional theory have been enormously powerful in the fields of physics, chemistry and biology. A natural outcome is the concept of “energy density” as has been developed recently: drop region, spindle structure, interaction energy density. Under external source of electromagnetic fields, charged particles can be accelerated by Lorentz force. Dissipative force can make the state of the charged particles stationary. In quantum mechanics, the energy eigenstate is another rule of the stationary state. Tension density of quantum field theory has been formulated in such a way that it can compensate the Lorentz force density at any point of space–time. This formulation can give mechanical description of local equilibrium leading to the quantum mechanical stationary state. The tension density is given by the divergence of stress tensor density. Electronic spin can be accelerated by torque density derived from the stress tensor density. The spin torque density can be compensated by a force density, called zeta force density, which is the intrinsic mechanism describing the stationary state of the spinning motion of electron.
