I’ve been reading several of Alexander Burinskii’s recent (2015 and 2016) published papers on his Kerr-Newman bag model of the electron (2 pdf’s attached). His approach integrates black-hole gravitational theory, Higgs theory and electromagnetism to produce a internally-light-speed model of the electron with radius hbar/2mc like John W and Martin’s, Chip’s, Vivian’s and my double-looping-photon electron models. Alexander's electron model is energetically stable, contains a circulating light-speed singularity (a photon?) in addition to an electromagnetic wave circling along its outer rim along a circular gravitational string, has g=2 (Dirac magnetic moment of magnitude 1 Bohr magneton), is a fermion and carries the electron’s charge. I think Alexander’s electron model has much to offer, coming from a different perspective than much of our group’s electron modeling. I request Alexander to give us a summary of the key features (and perhaps a brief history) of his electron model, emphasizing the nature of its stability (an important issue in circling-photon electron models.) I hope that this will stimulate a critical discussion of his approach in comparison with our various approaches to electron modeling, which could lead to better light-speed-based electron models coming up to the next SPIE “What are photons” conference in San Diego in August 2017.</div><div class=""> Richard </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""></div><br class=""><div class=""></div></div></body></html>
