The Planck Constant Was Not a Universal Constant

According to traditional classical quantum theory, due to the prior existence of the Planck constant, considered a universal constant, it is thought that the energy of a photon can be determined if its frequency is known, and the wavelength of a quantum can be determined if its momentum is known ( E hν = and h p λ = ). In this paper, however, the Planck constant only comes into existence when e C m cλ is replaced with h. There is no problem with introducing h to simplify equations, but quantum mechanics is not affected even if there is no symbol h. The physicists at the beginning of the 20th century overestimated the Planck constant, and this gave rise to universal constants that do not exist in the natural world in itself.


Introduction
In 1900, when deriving a formula that derived an experimental value of black-body radiation, Planck proposed the quantum hypothesis stating that the energy of a harmonic oscillator with oscillation frequency ν would quantize at the integral multiple of hν . This was the first time that the Planck constant h appeared in physics theory [1]. Since this time, the Planck constant has been thought to be a universal constant defined in the realm of quantum theory, but the essence of this constant cannot be considered to be well understood. In this paper, using non-historic reasoning, the true essence of this constant is revealed.
Beforehand, let us verify the following points regarding fundamental physical constants and the Planck constant. Fundamental physical constants play an es-sential part in elementary formulas that describe natural phenomena and can be largely divided into universal constants and material constants.
Universal constants include the speed of light in vacuum c, Newtonian constant of gravitation G, and Planck constant h.
Material constants can be divided into micro material constants and macro material constants. Also, micro material constants can be divided into atomic and nuclear constants and electromagnetic constants.
Atomic and nuclear constants include the electron rest mass e m , electron's Compton wavelength C λ , and include such constants as the fine-structure constant α and the Rydberg constant R ∞ . Electromagnetic constants include the elementary charge e. The Here, α is the following fine-structure constant.
However, Equation (2) is a formula of classical quantum theory, and does not take into account the theory of relativity. When the theory of relativity is taken into account, the following energy levels can be derived [3].
The "re" in re E stands for "relativistic". Equation (4) is an elementary formula that includes only the principal quantum number n.
Here, let's examine the relationship between Equation (2) and Equation (4). If the part in parentheses in Equation (4) is developed as a Taylor series, From this, it is evident that Equation (2) derived by Bohr is an approximation of Equation (4) [4].
Incidentally, the quantum condition is not assumed when deriving Equation (4). If the quantum condition is necessary, the following quantum condition can be inferred from the derived Equation (4) [5].
However, it is difficult to predict and assume a complex condition like Equation (6) at the beginning. In Equation (6), the Planck constant doesn't seem to play an essential role for values of α or higher. Also, the Planck constant does not play an important role when deriving Equation (4). The author has shown that the following quantization procedure is more important than quantum condition (1) [6].
Equation (7) is built into Equation (1). Equation (7) is a mathematical procedure for shifting from the classical world dominated by continuity to the discrete quantum world.
Here, let's multiply both sides of Equation (7) If n v c n α = found from Equation (7) is used, then the energy levels (2) derived by Bohr are obtained. That is, Equation (4) can be derived from Equation (7) [7], but Equation (4) cannot be derived from Equation (1).
Incidentally, the following Rydberg formula is available for calculating spectrum wavelength.
Recently, the author has shown that Equation (10) is correct within the scope of classical theory, but it becomes an approximation when the theory of relativity is taken into account [8]. In this way, it has been shown that even the Rydberg constant R ∞ in Equation (10) cannot, strictly speaking, be regarded as a fundamental physical constant.
It has also been pointed out that there are ultra-low energy levels that cannot be predicted by quantum mechanics in the hydrogen atom. The incompleteness of quantum mechanics has also become evident [9] [10] [11].
Thus, the next section examines whether Planck constant can truly be called a universal constant.

Planck Constant Derived from Fundamental Physical Constant
Below is Einstein's formula expressing the equality of energy and mass [12].

. E mc
Meanwhile, Einstein's relational expression which applies Planck's quantum hypothesis to photons is as follows [13].
The photon's energy E is proportional to its frequency ν , and this constant of proportionality is known as the Planck constant. Equation (11) and Equation If we subsequently combine equals from Equation (13) and Equation (14), we obtain: Here, the left half is the energy contained within the electron. This energy is emitted as multiple photons when it is externally emitted. The right half of this equation is the sum of all of this photon energy as represented by the frequency of a photon when converted into a single photon. Fundamentally these two types of energy have different characteristics, but from a quantitative perspective, it is possible to combine them as equals.
Incidentally, an electron's Compton wavelength C λ is represented by the following equation. Incidentally, Equation (13) can be written as follows. Comparing Equation (17) and Equation (18), it is evident that 0 λ in Equation (18) matches the electron's Compton wavelength C λ .
Thus, if we call 0 ν the Compton frequency, and rewrite it as C ν , then Equation (18) becomes as follows.  At this time, the following relation holds. From Equation (21) and Equation (22) it is evident that all photon energies can be described using the following formula.

Discussion
We next substitute the following values for physical quantities in e C m cλ [14].   , naturally the modified version of this Equation (17) is true. When we logically rewrite the Planck constant from Equation (11) into Equation (12) to include the frequency of a photon, we notice that non-frequency components e m cλ are always constant, and this constant can be rewritten (defined) as h, a new constant.
While differing from historical development, we interpret (17) to mean not only that " e C m cλ and h are the same" but to mean that " e C m cλ is defined as h for sake of simplicity". Therefore, this paper does not claim the discovery of any relationship in Equation (17)

Conclusions
According to existing theory, Equation (11) and Equation (12) have been thought to have similar importance. However, according to our discussion, Equation (11) is the more fundamental of the two. Equation (12) is merely Equation (11) rewritten to also include frequency. The right side of Equation (19), the product of the physical quantities e C m cλ except for frequency, is a steady value.
In this paper, we conclude that, theoretically, the Planck constant h first comes into existence as a constant once we agree to name e C m cλ as h. However, we have historically overlooked this agreement (definition). Then, the energy of a photon was presumed from the beginning to be proportional with its frequency; this proportional constant was named the Planck constant, and was considered to be a mysterious universal constant that ruled over the micro-world which could not be explained by classical mechanics.
There is no problem with introducing h to simplify equations, but quantum mechanics is not affected even if there is no symbol h. Although it is bothersome, one can get by writing e C m cλ instead of h. If one wishes to retain the Planck constant as a physical constant, then h must be downgraded to an atomic or nuclear constant containing e m and C λ .
However, the purpose of this paper is not to drag down the Planck constant from its position as a universal constant. I put together this paper to sound an alarm among physicists because the tendency to treat the Planck constant as sa-K. Suto cred is too strong.
The physicists at the beginning of the 20th century overestimated the Planck constant, and this gave rise to universal constants that do not exist in the natural world in itself.
