This article is a revised follow-up to Beyond Einstein: non-local physics (6th ed.). It presents an alternative to the nuclear model of the atom. It proposes that all particles (photons, atoms, etc.) are composed of pure space and time relationships, specifically "intrinsic rotation" (spin) in a setting of non-locality. The concepts are simple, intuitively accessible, and implied by the Periodicity of the Periodic Table and various facts from modern physics. Only the bare concepts are presented here with no detailed development. There are no mystery particles, no bottomless explanations, and (apparently) no show stoppers. The Expansive Ether is reviewed in greater detail. Structural concepts for the 4 pi, 2 pi and photon spin systems are presented along with a speculative suggestion for the structure of charge. Some musings about unusual practical applications are presented. The history of physics implies that much of this information has already been published in unrecognizable forms and in obscure places.

The positron is the acknowledged anti-particle of the electron. Electrons are plentiful, particularly in metal conductors, and can readily be generated by an electron gun or by the Photoelectric Effect. Positrons, on the other hand, are relatively rare in Nature, and high-energy processes are required to generate useful quantities. The mystery around positrons started with their discovery as a by-product of radioactive decay, and they were called positive beta particles. That label remained for 34 years until they were re-discovered in cosmic particles by Carl Anderson in 1932.Because pair-production, the main mechanism put forward for the creation of electrons and positrons, create them in equal numbers, why are electrons more plentiful and readily available? Why do electrons, defined as a structureless point-form monopole particle, have an electric charge of -1e and positrons a charge of exactly +1e? How do positrons relate (if at all) to ‘normal’ matter? With positive charge carriers required to fully explain semiconductor current generation, is it possible that positrons are mobile positive charge carriers rather than the static cations referred to as ‘positive holes’? These are some of the questions associated with the mystery that surrounds electrons and positrons as explored in this paper.

In this paper, we compare Maxwell’s formula of the speed of light with the traditional formula and our formula of the speed of light in atomic units, they are c=1/(μ0ε0)^(1/2), cau=1/α and cau=1/(α1α2)^(1/2) respectively. The traditional theory supposes that there is only one α which is the fine-structure constant, but our theory demonstrates that there are two α (α1 and α2) along with their geometric mean αc which could be called the integrated fine-structure constant. Our formula is consistent with Maxwell’s formula essentially, and hence should be reasonable and correct. We present our previous formulas of the fine-structure constant, the speed of light in atomic units and the anomalous magnetic moments of electron, muron and tauon to demonstrate the existence of α1, α2 and αc. We also propose a valuable research topic for mathematical physics to deduce our formula from Maxwell’s formula and provide some reasons for it. As for the fine-structure constant and the anomalous magnetic moment of muon, the relationships between their measured and calculated values are illustrated. In the end, the physical meanings of αc are explained.

This article presents a philosophy about the properties of the electron and proton, in combination with the hypothesis that exclusively and only these two particles form the ultimate building blocks of universe.
