First of all, as an example, consider a photon traveling all the way from a
far-away star. According to the traditional theory, the quantum cannot but
diffuse, be diluted beyond measure and end up disappearing.
[Suppose a photon is traveling in the z-direction. If x and y components of
the momentum of the photon are both absolutely zero (xy-spectrum width = 0),
the wave packet of the photon is already unlimitedly spread (plane wave).
Otherwise (xy-spectrum width is not zero), the wave packet will spread even
further.]

So, a kind of cohesive force like surface tension or the like is considered
to be essential in each quantum field.

[According to the traditional interpretation of quantum physics, one may
assume that, as soon as the photon is detected, the existence probability of
the photon completely vanishes at all points including those millions or
billions of light-years away. However, any theory has its own applicability
limit. I cannot but judge the above assumption ignores the limit.
The problem may be which is acceptable, the above mystical assumption or
introduction of unknown cohesive force.]

A free and isolated elementary particle is considered to substantialize as
a finite-sized wave packet (having finite length and width) and to have
specific energy and momentum (if not, conservation laws cannot but be invalid).
According to the traditional theory, however, finite-sized wave packet and
specific energy-momentum are not compatible. Introduction of the cohesive
force makes them compatible.
[So, in my perspective, the Kennard (not Heisenberg) inequality fails.]

However weak the cohesive force is, Feynman diagrammatic calculation method is
to be fundamentally changed and I wonder if renormalization is still needed.

These techniques are basis of modern quantum physics theories such as QED, QCD,
and quantum gravitation theories including the superstring theory.

Then, can we believe in these theories?

Thank you.
