There are many regions for preferring the point model of the electron, in which the field
equations of empty space hold all the way up to the centre of the electron, to the Lorentz …

The Lorentz model of the electron as a small sphere charged with electricity, possessing
mass on account of the energy of the electric field around it, has proved very valuable in …

THE theory to be developed here is based upon the principle that the fundamental equation
of the quantum theory, which is the quantum equation for an electron in a gravitational and …

(3) The prescription: Whenever the force on one of the two systems due to the other is
required, choose the former as the passive one and calculate the force on it exactly as in the …

Existing attempts to apply the quantum theory to the electromagnetic field are open to
serious objections. Above all, the time is treated differently from the space co-ordinates; the …

It is shown that when a point charge is present in an electromagnetic field, the conservation
of energy and momentum does not in general lead to conservation of angular momentum for …

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 …

The difficulties of the classical theory of the electron are examined and methods to eliminate
them are given. It is shown that the whole theory can be derived from a division of the total …

The relativity quantum theory of an electron moving in a given electromagnetic field,
although successful in predicting the spin properties of the electron, yet involves one serious …

1. In a recent papers the present writer discussed Dirac's new formulation of the quantum
mechanics of the electron from the point of view of the wave theory. In the course of that work …
