There are plenty of mysteries in the universe and so no need to invent questions that don't need answering; as I said before there is no experimental evidence that there is an internal structure to the electron and no theoretical reasons to suppose that it does. > > Electrons have a size and a mass. > An Electron has a mass but there are no experimental or theoretical reasons to suppose it has a size. It's true that you can plug in some numbers from classical physics and get a figure of 10^-15 meters for the radius of the electron, but the problem is there is no experimental evidence that the electron actually has that radius and that shouldn't be surprising because classical physics is wrong, especially at such small scales. As far as we can tell the electron is a point particle, it's radius is not 10^-15 meters it's ZERO. > When electrons and positrons are destroyed at least two photons are > produced (my model says there are three photons produced). > Then there is solid evidence your theory is wrong. The mass of the electron (and the positron) is 9.1 *10^-31 kilograms, and from E=MC^2 we can figure out that's equivalent to 511kev of energy. Gama ray photons of exactly 511kev have been detected in electron positron experiments performed in particle accelerators and they have also been found radiating from the center of our galaxy. This indicates that 2 photons were produced when electrons and positrons annihilate each other; if it were three we wouldn't see that, we'd see Gamma rays of 341kev because (511+511)/3 = 341.
