The Checkerboard Model (CBM) is a new proposed model of the structure of the nucleus. This model assumes that the nucleons are oriented on a 2 dimensional plane patterned like a checkerboard. This model explains the strong nuclear force as being a combination of flux coupling along with the simultaneous near approach of quarks of opposite charge at the perimeters of the nucleons. This model explains why the neutron has a magnetic moment. It predicts what the mass and velocity of the up and down quarks would have to be inside the proton and neutron in order to explain their magnetic moments, their masses, and their relative and absolute sizes. The mass of the up quark turns out to be 237.31 MeV/c2 and the down quark turns out to be 42.392 MeV/c2. Interestingly the relativistic deBroglie wavelengths of the up quarks circulating inside the proton based upon this model, agrees almost exactly with the theorized circumference of the proton in this model (0.519406 fm) and agrees well with actual data. This implies that the proton is a quantum vortex and the neutron turns out to be within a few percent of also being a quantum vortex. This model has some of the features of the Bohr atomic model, yet on a scale 100,000 times smaller. For more details see, "Checkerboard Structure of the Nucleus", Infinite Energy, Vol 5. Issue 30.
