Lorentz proposed a classical model of electron in which electron was assumed to have only 'electromagnetic mass'. We modeled electron as charged anisotropic perfect fluid sphere admitting non static conformal symmetry. It is noticed that…
This is an attempt to construct a classical microscopic model of the electron which underlies quantum mechanics. An electron is modeled, not as a point particle, but as the end of an electromagnetic string, a line of flux. These lines…
A model is proposed for the classical electron as a point charge with finite electromagnetic self-energy. Modifications of the Reissner-Nordstr{\o}m (spin 0) and Kerr-Newman (spin 1/2) solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations are…
The classical unified theory of Weyl is revisited. The possibility of stable extended electron model in the Einstein-Weyl space is suggested.
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…
We examine the spatial distribution of electrons generated by a fixed energy point source in uniform, parallel electric and magnetic fields. This problem is simple enough to permit analytic quantum and semiclassical solution, and it harbors…
Well over a century after the discovery of the electron, we are still faced with serious conceptual issues regarding precisely what an electron is. Since the development of particle physics and the Standard Model, we have accumulated a…
We provide new exact solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell system of equations which are physically reasonable. The spacetime is static and spherically symmetric with a charged matter distribution. We utilise an equation of state which is…
Within the framework of General Relativity a model approach to a description of spherical gravitating static fluid balls with an electric charge is considered. The metric interval is written in Bondi's radiation coordinates. The total…
LEP experiments indicate that the charge of the electron is distributed over a small radius $\sim10^{-20} $m. By incorporating this information in spinning sphere model of electron we arrive at a new interpretation of charge as the…

It is argued that electron can be treated as an anyon which carries a charge (-e) and a magnetic flux $\pm \frac{\Phi_{0}}{2}$ in the presence and absence of a uniform external magnetic field. This flux is shown to arise due to the spin of…
We propose a model of ion-electron plasma (or nucleus-electron plasma) that accounts for the electronic structure around nuclei (i.e. ion structure) as well as for ion-ion correlations. The model equations are obtained through the…
This paper is devoted to the analysis of the divergence of the electron self-energy in classical electrodynamics. To do so, we appeal to the theory of distributions and a method for obtaining corresponding extensions. At first sight,…
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…
The electron, which has been pictured as an elementary particle ever since J.J. Thomson's e/m-measurement in 1897, and the relativistic motion of which is described by the Dirac equation, is discussed in the light of the recent progress…
We show that the traditional concept of the uniform electron gas (UEG) --- a homogeneous system of finite density, consisting of an infinite number of electrons in an infinite volume --- is inadequate to model the UEGs that arise in finite…
A classical model of the electron based on Maxwell's equations is presented in which the wave character is described by classical physics. Most properties follow from the description of a classical massless charge circulating with v\,=\,c.…
Relativistic dynamics of distributed mass and charge densities of the extended classical particle is discussed for arbitrary gravitational and electromagnetic fields. Vector geodesic relations for material space densities are consequences…
A non relativistic electron with a spin is described by Pauli's equation. It has been shown that this system can be interpreted as a vortical fluid which has both similarities and differences with classical ideal flows. Moreover, it was…
