Converts matter into energy? You mean matter transforms that amount of energy? Matter is not converted into energy.
{sigh} Yes, matter can be converted into energy, and energy can be converted into matter. Because matter is a form of energy.
If matter is only "transforming" (your word, not mine) energy, what is it "transforming" that energy
into? It's already energy. That's a gaping hole in your pet theory you've got there.
There are two methods... annihilation (with antimatter) and fusion. Fission only releases the binding energy of atoms, but even in a fission reaction, some of that matter is converted into energy... where do you think the EMP comes from in a nuclear explosion? Now answer this... where does the EMP come from in a conventional chemical explosion... no nuclear binding energy was released, and yet we know that Flux Compression Generator bombs work, converting mass into an EMP. I presented the same argument to Ken Wheeler, and he tucked tail and ran. Wouldn't even respond to me.
>:DPerhaps you didn't know that "In all interactions, there is a loss of mass, equal to 1/c
2 times the amount of energy released." That's
ALL interactions. This has been known for more than a century. We knew about nuclear reactions first, because they're more energetic, but the same applies to every energetic interaction.
Please explain where the huge amount of energy expelled from the sun is coming from, if not from matter-to-energy conversion... keeping in mind that physicists tried more than a century ago to account for it via all means chemical, and came to the conclusion that the sun should have already burned out if it was a chemical interaction.
Also keeping in mind that scientists have done
photon-photon collisions which resulted in... matter. That's direct conversion from energy into matter, and proof of E

As to your included video, it's referring to Pilot Wave Theory, postulated by Max Born in 1926, expanded upon and presented by Louis de Broglie in 1927. David Bohm picked it up in 1952 and expanded further upon it, and it was thereafter known as the de Broglie-Bohm Pilot Wave Theory.
It just so happens that I subscribe to the de Broglie-Bohm Pilot Wave Theory, as it is deterministic and completely quashes the Copenhagen Interpretation's "shut up and calculate" insanity.
And given that I've studied deeply the de Broglie-Bohm Pilot Wave Theory, I can tell you that you're misinterpreting its premise.
:DAs for your Langmuir double sheaths... you might want to learn about magnetic pinch. In metal, the protons cannot flow, so only electrons mediate the current flow. In a plasma, both protons and electrons can move... and in so doing, they exhibit a magnetic field. This magnetic field 'pinches' (in fact, a
z-pinch) the current flow in upon itself (the same phenomenon you see in the 'fingers' of arcs coming off a Tesla coil), which results in filaments of current. Because electrons, being lighter than protons, can move faster, the two streams separate. In fact, unless the plasma is in a vacuum, thermal ions can create a third sheath.
I can see your analogy... you're attempting to analogize vacuum polarization with plasmic z-pinch. It works, to some extent. Except the Quantum Vacuum Zero Point Field is a scalar cold plasma of pure energy... no electrons or protons mediate it.
A more accurate analogization would be that of energy gradient around the nucleus.
