Abstract

Knowing the magnitude of the energy flow inherent to zero-point radiation allows us to approach the question of its possible interaction with particles of matter. Its photons are not different from the rest, and must in principle be subject to the Compton effect and the Klein-Nishima-Tann formula for its cross section. On this assumption, it is shown here that zero-point radiation may be powerful enough to explain Poincaré's tensions and to supply an efficient cause for gravitation. This could be only the case if the classic radius of the electron measures 8.143375×10²⁰q_\la, where q_\la is the minimum wavelength for electromagnetic radiation, and if the wavelength of the most energetic photon in the actual zero-point radiation is 5.275601×10²⁷q_\la. To the first of these numbers there corresponds the energy 3.5829 ×10²³ MeV for the photon whose wavelength is 1q_\la. This gives also the relation q_\la=(2 π\al)^1/2L_P, where L_P is the Planck Length. Finally the relation between the force of gravity and the electrostatic force is explained by the equations obtained in this paper.
