A Modified Born-Infeld Model of Electrons Leads to a Modified Zitterbewegung of Electrons

Authors: Martin Kraus

Recently, a classical model of electrons has been proposed, which represents the peak of a rotating field solution of a modified Born-Infeld field theory by a point-like particle of half the mass of the whole field solution. While this model is consistent with many features of electrons, it does not include the theoretical frequency of an electron's Zitterbewegung, which is a central part of many other models of spinning point-like electrons. In an attempt to explain the absence of this frequency in the new model, this work hypothesizes that the Hamiltonian of a free electron in Dirac's theory of electrons could be modified by halving the electron's mass when describing its spin motion. This leads to a modified frequency (equal to the Compton frequency), which is consistent with not only the modified Born-Infeld model of electrons but also de Broglie's internal clock hypothesis.
