Hello Albrecht and All,

I have attached a one page addition that I will make to my book. It is a
preliminary explanation of my model of the spacetime field.  It has been
very helpful to me to interact with this group because I now understand
better the key stumbling block for some scientists to accept my thesis.
Therefore I have written the attached introduction to ease the reader of my
book into my model.  

Albrecht:  I appreciate your email.  We agree on several points which
include the size of the electron and there is a similarity in the
explanation of gravity.  The key points of disagreement are the same as I
have with the rest of the group.  Your explanation of a fundamental particle
is not really an explanation.  You substitute a fundamental particle such as
an electron with two “basic particles”.  Have we made any progress or did we
just double the problem?  What is your basic particles made of?  What is the
physics behind the force of attraction between the particles? What is the
physics behind an electric field? How does your model create de Broglie
waves? How does your model create a gravitational field (curved spacetime)?
Can you derive the Coulomb law and Newtonian gravitational equation from
your model?  

These might seem like unfair questions, but my model does all of these
things. All it requires is the reader accept the fact that the vacuum
possesses activity which can be characterized as a type of energy density
that is not observable (no rest mass or momentum).  This is no different
that accepting that QED calculations should be believed when they assume
vacuum energy or that zero point energy really exists.  

Albrecht, perhaps I have come on too strong, but I have decided to take a
firmer stand.  You just happen to be the first person that I contrast to my
model.  I am actually happy to discuss the scientific details in a less
confrontational way.  I just wanted to make an initial point.

Dear John Macken,

I would like to answer a specific topic in your mail below. You write "...
would have particular relevance to the concept that the Higgs field is
needed to give inertia to fermions".

We should not overlook that even mainstream physicists working on elementary
particles admit that the Higgs theory is not able to explain inertia.  I
give you as a reference: 

>Steven D. Brass, The cosmological constant puzzle, Journal of Physics G,
Nuclear and Particle Physics 38, 4(2011) 43201< ,

which has the result that the Higgs field, which causes inertia according to
the theory, is by at least 56 orders of magnitude too small to explain the
mass of the elementary particles. (Another weakness is the fact that the
Higgs theory does not tell us the mass of any elementary particle even if
all other parameters are known.)

As you may remember, in our meeting I have presented a model explaining
inertia which does not only work as a general idea but provides very precise
results for the mass of leptons. The mass is classically deduced from the
size of a particle.  It also explains the mass of quarks, but here the
verification is more difficult, due to the lack of measurements. In addition
I have shown that the model also explains the (dynamic) mass of photons, if
the size of a photon is related to its wavelength. 

You may find details in the proceedings of our San Diego meeting, but also
on the following web sites:

www.ag-physics.org/rmass <http://www.ag-physics.org/rmass> 
www.ag-physics.org/electron <http://www.ag-physics.org/electron>  .

You may also find the sites by Google search entering the string "origin of
mass". You will find it on position 1 or 2 of the list, where it has
constantly been during the past 12 years.

If you have any questions about it, please ask me. I will be happy about any
discussion.

With best regards
Albrecht Giese

Martin,

I wanted to remind you that I think that you should update your article
“Light Is Heavy” to include the mathematical proof that confined light has
exactly the same inertia as particles with equal energy.  Accelerating a
reflecting box causes different photon pressure which results in a net
inertial force.  I already reference your Light Is Heavy article in my book,
but expanding the article would be even better.  An expanded article would
have particular relevance to the concept that the Higgs field is needed to
give inertia to fermions. The Higgs field is not needed to give inertia to
confined light.  Furthermore, confined light exerts exactly the correct
inertia and kinetic energy, even at relativistic conditions.  I have not
seen a proof that the Higgs field gives exactly the correct amount of
inertia or kinetic energy to fermions.  Any particle model that includes
either a confined photon or confined waves in spacetime propagating at the
speed of light gets inertia and kinetic energy from the same principles as
confined light in a reflecting box.

Dear all,

My recent (and old) work can be found on Researchgate:

https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Martin_Van_der_Mark/publications

In particular you will find the most recent work:

*	On the nature of “stuff” and the hierarchy of forces
*	Quantum mechanical probability current as electromagnetic 4-current
from topological EM fields

Very best regards,

Martin
