together with relativity require the wave equation for an electron moving in an arbitrary …

A theory of electrons and protons

A new classical theory of electrons

PAM Dirac - Proceedings of the Royal Society of London …, 1951 - royalsocietypublishing.org
In the theory of the electromagnetic field without charges, the potentials are not fixed by the
field, but are subject to gauge transformations. The theory thus involves more dynamical …

The new quantum mechanics, when applied to the problem of the structure of the atom with
point-charge electrons, does not give results in agreement with experiment. The …

An interpretation of Dirac's theory of the electron

G Breit - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1928 - National Acad Sciences
Dirac's' theory of the electron starts out with the following premises:(a) The wave-

On quantum-electrodynamics and the magnetic moment of the electron

J Schwinger - Physical Review, 1948 - APS
TTEMPTS to evaluate radiative corrections to elec-tron phenomena have heretofore been

A new classical theory of electrons. II

PAM Dirac - Proceedings of the Royal Society of London …, 1952 - royalsocietypublishing.org
An analysis is made of the motion of a stream of electrons obeying Lorentz's equations of
