A new Theory of the Interaction of the fields of Massive Particles

POSTER

Abstract

The fields of massive bodies undergo Lorentz Contraction, when they move, or the Doppler Effect when they are massless. When a massive particle, such as a Proton nears the speed of light, the Proton flattens due to Lorentz Contraction. Einstein claimed that, the Lorentz Contraction of the Electron was proof that the Electron was held together by Gravity, as the Lorentz Contraction is not in Maxwell's Equations, but is due to the General Theory of Relativity. Special Theory of Relativity, also has the Doppler Effect, that was originally championed by Ernst Mach. Although Einstein took the Doppler Effect as being fundamental to Relativity, he did not, at least in any work that I am fimiliar with claim that the Electromagnetic Field underwent the Lorentz Contraction, as that would mean that Photons are held together by Gravity as well. So direct hits of particles on target are not necessary. Other fields may travel with the particle. This glancing effect is already seen in the production of positrons from surfaces. Also one could deduce that the reason the W particle is massive and may be flattened to a pancake. This is an exciting Theoretical breakthrough, in that it may be possible to accelerate W particles and through glancing generate hidded fields and perhaps the Higgs field.
