The main goal of this article is to investigate the origin of spontaneous emission radiation by applying a new method. In this method, the vibrational Hamiltonian of hydrogen-like atoms (HLAs) is first constructed in accordance with the Hamiltonian of a simple harmonic oscillator. The Hamiltonian is then used to derive the vibrational motion equations of HLAs in a Heisenberg picture. The Langevin equation will ultimately be formed by adding the dissipative term and fluctuating (Langevin) force according to the fluctuation–dissipation theorem. The solution of the Langevin equation provides the exact data on the fluctuations that occur for the electron position during its rather fast vibrational oscillations. On the other hand, the fluctuations in the position of the oscillating electron, in turn, lead to the fluctuations in its potential and kinetic energies so that the appearance of the potential and kinetic noise fluxes is vulnerable. It is finally demonstrated that the potential and kinetic noise fluxes commonly act as an internal source of producing the external noise flux emitted from HLAs in the form of spontaneous emission with a Lorentzian profile. In contrast with all previous procedures, no ambient effect has been involved to describe the forming mechanism of spontaneous emission for the first time.
