Point particle singularityover the years…

Abraham(1903)-Lorentz(1904)-Poincare(1906): Electron is a sphere whose rest mass is of electromagnetic origin.

Einstein(1919,1935): Gravitational fields play an essential part in the structure of the

elementary particles of matter.

Wheeler(1955):Classical, divergence free, Newtonian concept of the body is realized by gravitational-

electromagnetic wave (Geon).

Dirac(1962): Electron and Muon are different energy excitations of a conducting surface with

surface tension in Electromagnetic field.

Dirac’s Variation Principle

The variation of the action with respect to embedding vector of the surface is not linear and therefore is not correct.

InOut

The surface of the electron must not deformed during the variation.

Conclusions

• In the framework of brane gravity we extend Dirac’s "Extensible model of the electron" to include gravitational field. The effective potential for the bubble radius which we derive possesses a global minimum and at the same time permits arbitrary small radius and arbitrary small mass without fine-tuning, thereby avoid the problem of classical radius of the electron.

• Local stability with respect to perturbation of external fields.
