No John... You really ought to learn the difference
between an electron and a density wave in a spiral
galaxy.

Gee, Thanks for the official reference, Sam. Are you sure you don't
have any literature from the "electron promotion society" you can try
to pass off as a scientific paper?

But now I've got another problem. I can't figure out what this thing
electrons have called "charge" is!


From: socratus on
More than ten different models of the electron are presented here.
(!!!)
More than twenty models are discussed briefly. (!!!)
Thus, the book gives a complete picture of contemporary theoretical
thinking (traditional and new) about the physics of the electron.

All of them are problematical.
So, why we call an electron a simple
elementary particle if it looks not very simple ?

Density wave meaning a cloud of suns?
Suns are matter factories.
The HEPs coming from AGN jets
coelesce as suns, and are steadily fused back into matter,
with the release of neutrinos.
The old burnt-out suns fall back into the
center and are separated into HEPs with the absorption of neutrinos.
