  "abstract": "Mills solves the hydrogen atom and molecule in exact equations that give the experimental observables of both. Uniquely, Mills predicts that in addition to the reciprocal integer squared excited-state electronic energy states of atomic hydrogen, hydrogen possesses integer squared electronic energy levels corresponding to 1/p replacing n in the Rydberg formula, corresponding so-called hydrino state of hydrogen. Hydrino, H(1/p), is any small form of atomic hydrogen with state energy En = -13.598/n2 eV, in which n = 1/p, and p is limited by the energy in the electric field of the proton to 126 whereafter the proton and electron decay. Electron transitions to a hydrino states involve an initial non-radiative energy transfer to a catalyst that serves as an energy hole or sink of a quantized amount of energy, 2mE1 (m is integer) to be transferred to a catalyst such as HOH, a free or nascent water molecule. Furthermore, hydrino atoms can react to form the corresponding diatomic molecule referred to as molecular hydrino H2(1/p). In contrast to molecular hydrogen (H2), the molecular hydrino (H2(1/p)) is paramagnetic with S = ½, the size is 1/p3 that of H2, the internuclear distance is 1/p that of H2, and the energies such as the rotational, vibrational, and total molecular energies are p2 those of H2. These aspects of H2(1/p) give rise to unique spectral signatures that are characteristic of and identify H2(1/p). The recording of unique gas chromatographic (GC), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, electron beam excitation spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) peaks of H2(1/4) formed by a high energy impact reaction of FeOOH that served as the source of H and HOH catalyst are reported wherein the observed peaks matched those predicted.",
