Scalar Field Interaction Theory: A New Proposal for Photon BehaviorDOI: 10.4236/jhepgc.2025.112024, PP. 284-290 Keywords: Scalar Field, Deterministic Quantum Mechanics Theory, Copenhagen Interpretation, Photons as Pure Particles Abstract: The Scalar Field Interaction Theory offers an alternative view of the wave-like properties of photons. Rather than invoking an inherent wave-particle duality, this approach explains photon wave-like behavior via interactions with a locally oscillating scalar field whose average value remains zero ( ). In this deterministic framework, all parameters of the scalar field (including its characteristic amplitude and mass term) are derived solely from fundamental physical constants, without any fitting or adjustable parameters. Preliminary comparisons indicate that the theory can closely match observed interference and diffraction data while maintaining a purely particle-like concept of the photon. By eliminating the need for probabilistic interpretations, the model aims to provide a consistent explanation for phenomena often attributed to quantum wave-particle duality.
