hi,
when an electron stays in the same electronic orbitals with principal quantum number n, with a constant energy and momentum, are there still virtuals photons that are permanently exchanged between this electron and the nucleus?
I believe that the electromagnetic field is equivalent with virtual photons. So since the electromagnetic field is always constant and permanent, there should be permanently virtual photons that are exchanged. Am I right?
