Hi Martin, Al, and all,

thank you all for your contributions.

_Regarding the size of the electron:_

As Al argued in his example of the sun: If the scattered object is 
passing by without touching, the angular distribution is independent of 
the size of the object (for the 1/r^2 case). But that changes if the 
scattered particle hits the body of the "ball". In a last experiment in 
2004 at DESY there was an experiment performed in which electrons were 
scattered against quarks (of a proton). The "common" size of both 
particles resulted in a bit less than 10^-18 m. This limit is given by 
the ratio of scattered events which react different from the 1/r^2 rule. 
- In this experiment it was also found that the electron is not only 
subject to the electric interaction but also to the strong interaction. 
I think that this is also important for assessing electron models.

This result of the size seems in clear conflict with the evaluation of 
Schrödinger and Wilczek using the uncertainty relation. Schroedinger 
made the following statement to it: "Here I have got the following 
result for the size of the electron (i.e. the Compton radius). But we 
know that the electron is point-like. So, I must have an error in my 
evaluation. However, I do not find this error." So also for Schrödinger 
this was an unsolvable conflict.

I think that if the electron would be point like on the one hand but 
oscillate far enough so as to fill the size of the Compton wavelength, 
this would be a violation of the conservation of momentum. Very clearly, 
a single object cannot oscillate. That was also obvious for Schrödinger 
and clearly his reason to call the internal motion "Zitterbewegung". 
This is a word which does not exist in the German vocabulary of physical 
terms. But Schrödinger hesitated (by good reason) to use the German word 
for "oscillation".

On the other hand, if the electron is built by two sub-particles, this 
solves the problem. The sub-particle is point-like (at least with 
respect to its charge), but both sub-particles orbit each other, which 
reserves the momentum law, and the orbital radius is the reduced Compton 
wavelength. - The argument of Martin that a model of two sub-particles 
is "refuted by the experiment" is often heart but not applicable to my 
model. The usual argument is that a sufficient effort has been done to 
decompose an electron by a strong bombardment. This was also done here 
at DESY. But in my model the sub-particles have no mass on their own 
(the mass of the electron is caused by the dynamics of the binding 
field). And in such a case one of the sub-particles may be accelerated 
by an arbitrary amount, the other one can always follow without any 
force coming up. A decomposition by bombardment is therefore never 
possible. - I have discussed this point with the research director of 
DESY who was responsible for such experiments, and after at first 
objecting it, he admitted, that my model is not in conflict with these 
experiments.

Martin: Where do I find your paper of 1997?

_Regarding dilation:_

There is a lot of clear indications for dilation. Two examples:
-  The atomic clocks in the GPS satellites are slowed down which has to 
be compensated for
-  In the Muon storage ring at CERN the lifetime of these Muons was 
extended by the great amount ca. 250, which was in precise agreement 
with special relativity.

Contraction, on the other hand, is in so far more a point of 
interpretation as it cannot be directly measured - in contrast to dilation.

Best wishes
Albrecht
