Electromechanical Physical Model of the Photon
Daniel H. Deutsch
Keywords: photon, electric dipole, massless point charge, fine structure constant, electromagnetic mass, wave-part
A rotating dipole model of the photon is proposed with massless point charges (2![[barred aitch]](http://physicsessays.aip.org/stockgif3/barh-rm.gif)

distance apart. This model quantitatively accounts for the linear momentum, angular momentum, translational energy, rotational energy, total energy, and wavelength of the photon inside of Newtonian- Maxwellian mechanics and provides a physical mechanism for electromagnetic mass. In this model the photon has both particle and wave characteristics.
