Mass is Electromagnetic Change

Scientists throughout the 20th century pondered Unified Field Theories that considered the Electromagnetic Field to be the final irreducible constituent of all physical reality. Such theories do explain how all physical phenomena are directly related. They also explain that property of mass that causes mass to be massive.

Scientists discovered over a hundred years ago that there was a direct link between mass and energy. Henri Poincare used E = mcc in 1900 to explain the momentum of pulses of light. Einstein later showed that E = mcc applied universally to all of mass and energy. That equation can also be restated and simplified as m = hv / cc where m is mass, h is Planck's constant, and v is electromagnetic change stated as frequency. Electromagnetic change is the only variable in the equation.

Thinking in terms of a unified field, the property of mass that causes it to be massive quickly becomes obvious. It is the frequency of electromagnetic change within the mass and it cannot possibly be otherwise. Mass is electromagnetic change.

Planck's constant sits in the equation and represents the

An electron consists of a photon trapped in a resonant pattern. The shape of the pattern is determined by its fields and the pattern will need to distort to accommodate motion. We can guess how the distortion might be but work needs to be done here to make our guesses more likely to represent reality.

positive and negative limits of the electromagnetic change of each quanta of energy in the mass. We don't usually think of Planck's constant that way but that is what it has to be.

It can be shown that space has a saturation property for electromagnetic radiation. A point in space can support electric and magnetic amplitude between positive and negative values limited by that property. All electromagnetic change, once started, will go to saturation unless interrupted in the process by other electromagnetic change.

That saturation property is the fundamental cause of the quantum nature of photons, and through photons, all of mass. Plancks constant derives from that saturation property of space.

So that property of mass that causes mass to be massive is electromagnetic change. Simply stated then, we can say that mass is electromagnetic change. The measure of mass is m = hv / cc, the classic equation for energy and mass.

 And that leads to What is Gravity?
