Friends,
I have been taking part in various sci.physics discussion forums on
usenet for almost a decade now. Even though I found these discussions
quite useful, still I failed to communicate my viewpoint to most of
the readers. Perhaps, communication of a certain viewpoint in bits and
pieces cannot be expected to 'stick', to have any permanent
impression. On the suggestion of a well wisher, I have now compiled
all the bits and pieces of my un-orthodox viewpoint into a new book
titled, "Fundamental Nature of Matter and Fields". Keeping in view
the nature of contents, I want to get it reviewed by the competent
readership of the usenet forums, before getting this book formally
printed. I also want to get suitable feedback for improving the
presentation and readability of this book.

You may kindly download 1.8 M pdf file of the book from,
http://www.fundamentalphysics.info/m...and_fields.pdf
or

However, for getting a brief over-view or introduction before
downloading the book (or any of its chapters) kindly visit the
website,

(For removing Ads on right, kindly click on '' at top right)

Therefore, I earnestly request all readers to kindly spare a little
time to review and suggest improvements for better presentation and
readability of the said book. Specifically, the following
shortcomings, if noticed in the book, may please be pointed out.
(a) Logical, mathematical or typographical errors if any.
(b) Inconsistencies in presentation of the viewpoint, if any.
(c) Faulty assumptions or faulty deductions, if any.

On the other hand, if you appreciate any aspect of this presentation,
kindly let me know. Suggestions are also welcome on my e-mail
address.

With sincere thanks in advance.

I found nothing regarding one of my primary areas of interest. In
the electron-beam version of Young's two-slit diffraction experiment,
we understand that the matter waves of the electron(s) interfere with
each other just as do the wave aspect of photons in the light beam
version of the experiment, which makes sense as mass is not quantized;
however, electric charge _is_ quantized and does not lend itself to
self-interference. Yet as we see, the charges of individual electrons
_do_ behave like waves and give us no "which way" information in one-
electron-at-a-time experiments.

How do you address this?

Yes, I have not discussed the electron diffraction phenomenon in this
book.

In my opinion, the fringe pattern in the electron beam diffraction
experiments is a consequence of diffraction from sharp edges (or the
electron biprism) and not a result of mutual interference of matter
waves of electrons. And I don't think quantization of mass or charge
has anything to do with this phenomenon. Even in the interference of
photons, there is no question of 'self-interference'.

Regarding your observation "the charges of individual electrons _do_
behave like waves", let me reproduce a relevant part from chapter 18
(The Electron Structure and Coulomb Interaction) of the book.

Based on the spherically symmetric solution of equilibrium
equations in the Elastic Space Continuum, we have introduced a new
model for the structure of the electron core and its wave field. The
mass of electron, as of any other particle, is shown as the inertial
equivalent of the total strain energy content ‘locked up’ in the
oscillating strain bubble. The sign of charge of positron / electron
has been associated with the direction of propagation, outwards or
inwards, of the strain phase waves linked with the oscillating core.
The ‘intrinsic spin’ of electron is shown to be the result of
rotation of the displacement vector U at a characteristic angular
frequency kc. The Coulomb interaction has been derived from the
superposition of strain wave fields of the interacting particles,
resulting in overall change in combined field energy. Among salient
parameters, the electron and positron core radii are found to be 1.61
x 10^-15 m. Beyond this core boundary of 1.61 fm radius, the strain
wave field of the electron extends to infinity and accommodates about
35 percent of its total mass energy.

Regarding the mutual interference of photons, let me quote a relevant
portion from chapter 19 (The Photon Wave Packet and Neutrinos ) of the
book.

The photon may be viewed as a sinusoidal pulse of electromagnetic
field Ep & Bp with exponentially decaying amplitude and ‘significant’
spatial extension of just about one wave length in all directions.

The Photon Interaction. Here it may be appropriate to point out
that just like computation of Coulomb Interaction, mutual interaction
of two or more photons separated by distance ‘d’ along any Cartesian
coordinate axis, can be easily computed. This is done by superposition
of the strain tensor components of two interacting photons separated
by distance d along any coordinate axis and referred to a common
Cartesian coordinate system. The strain energy of the superposed or
combined field can then be easily computed. The computation results
show that the interaction energy for two photons of same frequency
depends on functions of the type 2hf.exp(-k.d).cos(k.d). That is,
any two photons of same frequency f, will tend to get mutually
coupled at certain optimum separation of the order of ‘odd number of
half wave lengths’. Their interaction energy will change from
negative to positive if their separation along any coordinate axis is
changed by about one half wave length, resulting in their mutual
repulsion. This may account for the conventional interference and
dispersion effects encountered in a stream of photons of the same
frequency.

Fundamental Nature of Matter and Fields
---------------------------------------

In this book I have presented a bold un-orthodox viewpoint that
demonstrates the feasibility of representing whole physical phenomenon
involving matter and fields in the form of orderly 'space-time'
distortions or dynamic deformations and strains in the space
continuum.

Through the study and analysis of dynamic deformations and strains in
the space continuum it is shown that all natural physical phenomenon
as well as the shape and size of all matter particles can be brought
within our mental grasp and mental visualization.

Whereas the metric scaling property is only associated with coordinate
space, the physical measurable properties of permittivity eps_0,
permeability mu_0 and intrinsic impedance Z_0 are only associated with
physical space.

Just like the intrinsic impedance Z_0 = sqrt(mu_0 /eps_0 ) , the speed
of strain wave propagation c = 1/sqrt(eps_0.mu_0 ) is a measurable
property of physical space.

I have shown that an absolute fixed reference frame, like the
International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF), can be constructed in
any closed volume of space with finite matter content. The concept of
absolute reference frame is extended to the Universal Reference Frame
and I have outlined an experimental technique for practically
establishing the same just like the ICRF.

The exchange theory of interaction which is the founding postulate of
the SM, is fundamentally invalid due to the absence of any suitable
physical mechanism for prior exchange of required information.

Part II of the book mainly covers the hitherto unexplored field of
space-time distortions to analyze the shape, size, internal structure
and mutual interactions of elementary particles. A detailed analytical
study of dynamic deformations in the physical space continuum, through
the time dependent displacement vector field U provides a more
fundamental level of investigation into the workings of Nature, in
comparison to the fields currently employed for the purpose.

The detailed study of any deformed or the stressed region of the
Elastic Space Continuum primarily involves the detailed solution of
the equilibrium equations subject to appropriate boundary conditions.

A closed region of the Elastic Space Continuum in a permissible
strained state, satisfying the equilibrium equations and boundary
conditions, may be termed a strain bubble provided the total strain
energy content in this closed region is time invariant constant.

We have obtained particular solutions for the strain bubbles that
correspond to well known stable particles namely electron, positron,
proton, neutron and the photon. Strain bubble solutions that
correspond to neutrinos and some of the unstable particles like
mesons, have also been discussed.

The fundamental nature of the matter particles and their associated
fields, as brought out in this book, represents only the proverbial
"tip of the iceberg". Tremendous amount of further research work is
called for in this direction.

If that were the case a double-slit pattern would be the simple
linear sum of the individual slits' patterns, but that isn't what's
seen.

And I don't think quantization of mass or charge
has anything to do with this phenomenon. Even in the interference of
photons, there is no question of 'self-interference'.

I see no room for any other interpretation of the one-photon-at-a-
time, two-slit version; an interference pattern slowly builds up, but
there's nothing for any given photon _to_ interfere with except
itself. Again if it were simple diffraction the double-slit pattern
would be the simple linear sum of the individual slits' patterns, but
it isn't.
