Thomson 4/3 problem leads to nonlocal continuous charges with Poincaré radial stresses and zero electromagnetic inertia

Publication date: Available online 2 May 2019Source: Physics Letters AAuthor(s): I.E. BulyzhenkovAbstractInertia-free electricity in Maxwell’s equations is consistent with the elementary radial charge. The internal Poincaré stresses stabilize an extended electric charge and participate in zeroing its integral four-momentum. The global overlap of extended particles reinterprets classical physics in nondual terms of elementary material fields without areas of empty space. Measurements in macroscopic experiments can be explained by purely field carriers of electric energy. New probes beyond quantum nonlocality could falsify the point charge approximation and the empty space paradigm of dual electrodynamics.
