The concept I have is based arround the postulation that annihilating
electrons and positrons are not totally destroyed but they lose their
properties of charge and mass when they cancel each other. There existance
afterhaving been annihilated is to lie dormant in the vacuum until the are
restaored to existance by the process of pair creation. Were the pair
created or were they separated from each other? I take the view that they
were separated from a bound existance to exist again as separate particles.
In this bound state they have no mass and no charge when the separation
distance is zero.
The opposite so to speak would be when the separation distance is sufficient
to allow the charge on the positron and the electron to restore its full
charge. When the particles are at a separation distance inbetween these two
distances then I describe them as being partially separated and having
partial mass and partial charge. Now I can here you scream what about the
quantities? What sort of distance are you talking about?
Well in order to arrive at the figures you require we must venture into the
realms of the speculative. Some years ago I was challenged to model the
strong force using electromagnetic forces only from which I came up with a
model of a proton which can be described as a positronium Bucky Ball. The
bond energy of the particles that make up an atom of deuterium has been
measured experimentally. This bond energy between a neutron and a proton is
measured at 2.224 Mev and according to my ideas of the structure of a proton
this should represent a hexagonal section of the proton surface joining on
to a hexagonal section of the neutron surface. This in turn means that 6
electron - positron pairs will annihilate to form the bond. Therefore, no
less than 12 x .511 Mev of energy is used which equates to 6.132 Mev of
energy for the bond.
The proton structure is postulated to be constructed from partially
annihilated electron - positron pairs but as I was not sure of the level of
the partial annihilation. By considering the deuterium bond energy, which
must only be one bond between the two particles, and assuming for now that
the adjacent e-p pairs to the bond forming pairs, contribute little to the
energy of the bond, we can say that the energy of the bond of 6.132 Mev is
formed from resultant charge of the leptons after forming the proton
BuckyBall. The residual charge of the leptonic structure is 2.224/6.132 =
0.363 which is coincidentally very near to that magic 1/3 rd that everybody
seems to be looking for ! Which means that 2/3rds of the lepton energy
contributes towards the binding energy which holds the strong force itself
together.
If we consider the BuckyBall model for the proton structure then we can say,
to the first level of approximation that if the charge and mass of a lepton
are proportional, and if the mass of the proton pellicle is 1836 x the mass
of a lepton then there are 1836/ 0.362 = 5062.2086 leptons in the pellicle
which as the result has to be integer equates to 5062. The difference in
charge between the leptons that are part of the electron positron BuckyBall
structure of the proton and those of the real physical world means that the
two can not react because there will always be an excess of charge when they
do. Therefore annihilation of the particles in the proton BuckyBall by
ordinary leptons is not possible. So ordinary leptons will not react with
the "strong force", however a similarly structured particle such as a
neutron will be able to almost complete the annihilation of the reduced
charge particles.
Now that we have the number of particles making up the mass of the proton
and the value of their charge at the distance they are at. As a first
approximation we can assume they are all evenly distributed over the surface
in a regular square pattern. I calculate the closest distance to be
0.0398596837fM. Now we have a second point namely a separation distance of
0.399 fm leaves the lepton presenting a charge of 0.363 of a whole unit of
charge. If we assume the relationship is linear then the gradient equates to
9.11.
therefore using y=mx+c where c= 0 as both axes cross at the 0,0 point.and
assuming unit charge.
1= 9.106874 x Distance = 0.10980716fM which is the distance at which the
particles reach full charge and mass.

What we are looking for is a glow in the phosphoescent coating when in a
dielctric of a capacitor subject to alternaing charge and discharge
conditions. If we see a glow then we are saying there is charge movement in
between the plates. I am quite happy to go it alone with just a magnetic
field measurement indicating a current flow.
