[En] Here it is made a comparative analysis between the classical and the quantum expressions for the energy of electromagnetic radiation (ER). The comparison points to the possibility of the quantization of the magnetic and the electric…
We give a critical overview of various attempts to describe gravity as an emergent phenomenon, starting from examples of condensed matter physics, to arrive to more sophisticated pregeometric models. The common line of thought is to view…
A four-vector field in flat space-time, satisfying a gauge-invariant set of second-order differential equations, is considered as a unified field. The model variational principle corresponds to the general covariance idea and gives rise to…
The Standard Model of elementary particles is a theory unifying three of the four basic forces of the Nature: electromagnetic, weak, and strong interactions. In this paper we consider the Standard Model in the presence of a classical…
The energy and momentum densities of the fields of a free electron in a plane electromagnetic wave include interference terms that are the classical version of the ``dressing'' of the electron the arises in a quantum analysis. The…
Molecular structure is often considered as emerging from the decoherence effect of the environment. Electrons are part of the environment of the nuclei in a molecule. In this work, their contribution to the classical-like geometrical…
This paper deals with QED-particles and the interaction between them on a classical level. The Maxwell-equations are used mainly. (Proofs are not used in a mathematical but intuitive sense.) In the first step the main statements are…
The free electromagnetic field, solution of Maxwell's equations and carrier of energy, momentum and spin, is construed as an emergent collective property of an ensemble of photons, and with this, the consistency of an interpretation that…
Recent advances in condensed matter theory have revealed that new and exotic phases of matter can exist in spin models (or more precisely, local bosonic models) via a simple physical mechanism, known as "string-net condensation." These new…
Quantum Electrodynamics can be formulated as the theory of an antisymmetric tensor gauge field. In this formulation the topological current of this field appears as an additional source for the electromagnetic field. The topological charge…
It is shown that the photon, the quantum of electromagnetic field, allows the consideration in the framework of the scheme which in some aspects is typical for the phonon, an excitation of the crystal lattice of a solid. The conclusion is…
The electromagnetic theory is, to a large extend, metric independent. Before the metric is introduced, it is called premetric electrodynamics. Metric enters the constitutive relation. We consider this relation for the Friedman model of an…
The recent literature shows a renewed interest, with various independent approaches, in the classical models for spin. Considering the possible interest of those results, at least for the electron case, we purpose in this paper to explore…
Motivated by recent experiments where interference patterns behind a grating are obtained by accumulating single photon events, here we provide an electromagnetic energy flow-line description to explain the emergence of such patterns. We…
In this paper we discuss in detail the interface between Classical Electrodynamics and Quantum Theory, which shows up as well known unphysical phenomena at the Compton scale in both the theories and argue that the photon of the…
A new approach to the geometrization of the electron theory is proposed. The particle wave function is represented by a geometric entity, i.e., Clifford number, with the translation rules possessing the structure of Dirac equation for any…
The answer to the title-question is affirmative. The analysis of the geometry of continuous and differentiable curves in three-dimensional Euclidean space suggests that the point represents the location of the center of charge of the…
Electronic transport through a quantum wire sandwiched between two metallic electrodes and coupled to a quantum ring, threaded by a magnetic flux $\phi$, is studied. An analytic approach for the electron transport through the bridge system…
The power spectrum formula of the synchrotron radiation generated by the electron and positron moving at the opposite angular velocities in homogenous magnetic field is derived in the Schwinger version of quantum field theory. The…
We consider a lattice model in which phonons scatter with pairs of electrons. All eigenvalues and eigenvectors can be obtained analytically. For a suitable choice of parameters the ground state consists of a Fermi sea of non-interacting…
