The video discusses an model for the internal structure of the electron that is not aligned with the opinions and views of main-stream physics. 0:00 intro 01:43 what if particles are made of light? 02:35 Issues with the electron as a point entity 05:22 Compton wavelength 10:24 Circular polarization of light 10:50 The WvdM electron model 20:00 Calculation of charge from EM energy 22:37 Point interaction (de Broglie harmony of phases) 28:05 Mechanism of self-confinement 33:00 Some additional random questions for the Universe Download link to the main paper by Williamson & Van der Mark: Some of the images used in the video are taken directly from the paper. John Williamson wrote several additional papers on the subject: The Quantum Bicycle Society website showcases many of the work done on this model, including the more recent developments. Some of the images shown in this video were taken from their website with permission. Special thanks to Arnold Benn for additional explanations Link to the Quantum Bicycle Society website: Not all views in this video might alight with newer model developments The field animations of linear and circular polarization were shown with permission of Grant Sanderson of 3Blue1Brown Link to 3Blue1Brown YouTube channel: @UCYO_jab_esuFRV4b17AJtAw Link to the video on circular polarization: A very good video on Compton scattering / wavelength was presented by @PhysicsExplainedVideos : The end of the video contained a duet version of Laufey's "Questions to the Universe". Unfortunately I had to remove the audio due to a copyright claim. I had re-recorder the piano/string parts part myself and had just used 2 sentences of Laufey's voice in the song. So I thought it would be okay, especially it being a bit of a parody. But apparently it wasn't okay with Warner. Since publishing companies always claim the complete video revenue and take control over it (even though it was just 1 minute of the total 34 minutes of video material) I changed the ending. This is the reason for the awkward silence at ending. Anyway, check out the original song at: or check the modified (unlisted) version at: Please contact me in case I forgot to mention something / someone here.
