dc.descriptionThis is an attempt to construct a classical microscopic model of the electron which underlies quantum mechanics. An electron is modeled, not as a point particle, but as the end of an electromagnetic string, a line of flux. These lines stretch across cosmic distances, but are almost unobservable because they condense into pairs--which form the ether. Photons are modeled to propagate on these line pairs, which act effectively as wave guides. These line pairs are also responsible for the force of gravity--which is electromagnetic in character.
dc.description60 pages, 19 figures; experimental comparisons with Standard Model improved; concise motivation starts introduction; possible relevance to standard string theory mentioned in abstract and introduction; cosmetic changes
