In your defense I have to say you're sometimes, probably
accidentally, amusing.

Like I said all you have is books eric.

In quantum mechanics, particle momentum is
(roughly) inversely proportional to the separation
between closest maxima of
the wave function. So, when particle moves faster,
the wave function shrinks. When particle moves slower,
the wave function expands. When particle stands still,
the wave function does not oscillate in space.

Only one problem, how does a particle stand still?

All real matter is in motion. That is what Einstein said:
There is no absolute stillness.

It may not oscillate in relative stilness. It would be a
standing wave.

Ha!

You are right, motion depends on observer. For one observer
the particle stands still, for another observer the particle is moving.
Therefore, the wave function describing the particle state depends
on the observer too. Each observer describes the same particle by a
different wave function. An observer co-moving with the
particle will see a wave function without regular oscillations in space
(for example, it could be a Gaussian shape function).
An observer moving with respect to the particle will see a wave
function that is

psi(x) = Gaussian * exp(ipx)

where p is particle's momentum.

Eugene.

A point that I like to make is that
you can have relative stillness
of more than one thing when they
are moving together through space.
This movement though is absolute. T
hat again is a reason behind what
Einstein had to say: There is no
absolute stillness.

All matter is moving through space in
some way and this is the reason for
space-time contraction. It is
not relative in the sense that it is
not reciprocal: only fast moving
objects experience the effect.

This is a departure from Einstein
I know. He went to far. The reciprocal
appearence has nothing to do with
physics. Physics shouldn't be about
an appearence but rather universal
laws.

Eric you have pointed to a book on relativistic quantum FIELD theory
which is *different* from relativistic quantum MECHANICS.

Eugene, for instance, is working an example of relativistic quantum
mechanics, where one studies the full dynamics of *particles* not only
scattering processes in the infinite past and infinite future for
supposed fundamental fields -that nobody has measured-.

Our own formulation of the topic is called quantum relativistic
dynamics.

A technical explanation of this approach will appear in the research
zone in brief.

Our theory has been already generalized to gravitation -showing why
Einstein General Relativity is not a correct approach to gravity- and I
am now working in the quantization. We have already derived a
theoretical expression for the computation of the full quantum metric
g_munu. No other quantum gravity approach has done this still:

- Discrete approaches focus on spacetime structure but without full
explicit result far from some recent -not very convincing- simulations
(e.g. triangulations).

- Geometrodynamics and its loop extension are simply wrong. In fact,
even ignoring details, today, the WdW equation does not compute quantum
metric g_munu.

- String theory is at the best an insane discipline. See recent
criticism on sci.physics.strings "String theory is not a TOE by Juan
R."

Joao Magueijo said the Plack Length must be absolute, not subject to
Lorentz contraction.
