That's one of the cool characteristics of the epo vacuum lattice that I am proposing. The smaller the scale, the more nonlinear the propagation medium will be. Thus, the smaller the wavelength of the photon, the more nonlinear the medium and the smaller the soliton. On Sat, Oct 21, 2017 at 10:44

Too bad that Don Hotson is now deceased. It would be wonderful to get his thinking on these questions. While I described a vacuum lattice comprised of epos, each having an elementary magnetic dipole and a freely polarize-able electric dipole at a right angle, I didn't describe the effect of the m

The photon cannot be stretched out too far, or an atom would be unable to absorb its energy in an acceptable time. The problem with the other speculations about soliton being a description of a photon is that the soliton is only a solution in a NONLINEAR propagation medium - the solution solution

Hi Eric, I think Hotson suggests that epos have 0 mass. As I understand it, only positive energy charges have mass. According to Hotson, protons and neutrons are comprised of electron and positron lattices - perhaps in a stabilized positronium-like cluster. Each of the electron and positron has

Greetings Vorts, For some time I have been trying to understand some of the implications of Hotson’s hypothesis for the epo as a solution to Dirac’s equation. Here are some fundamental observations which may prove to be too simplistic (but they are fun to think about): - When a free electro
