Physics - the study of the constituents of the Universe and their interactions.
For things to interact it is necessary for there to be a mechanism of engagement between them.
Photons, that is discrete packets of energy, interact with 'matter'.
What is the nature of this interaction?
What characteristics of these things allow them to engage in such a manner as to influence their behaviour?
In an attempt to reverse engineer physical reality I speculated upon the characteristics necessary to potentially enable a photon to interact with matter at an 'atomic' level.
I considered a photon with mass and charge enabling it to engage with the mass and charge of other matter.
I then considered characteristics enabling such a photon to behave as observed in all known circumstances and experiments.
Imagine a photon emitted with high energy as an undetectably small PHYSICAL particle possessing a related equally minute mass and charge.
Imagine such a particle of almost zero mass being accelerated by the relatively large energy of its emission.
In this thought experiment the inertial mass and related charge of the accelerated body are seen to increase rapidly until a point at which no further energy is available and therefore no further acceleration is possible.
At this point the mass and charge of the speculated photon have progressively accumulated to a maximum. Subsequent to this time of exhausted energy and cessation of acceleration, the mass, charge and energy of the particle revert to initial states, with the minute particle being accelerated once again under the influence of its associated energy.
Such a process could be seen to repeat continuously until the photonic particle materialises sufficiently within proximity of a second charged object, at which point the masses of the objects will be attracted or repelled by their charges and be deflected from their paths as determined by normal mechanical principles.
Meaningful progress in Man's comprehension of the Universe will not be made until it becomes clearly understood that identical mechanisms are at play at all scales.
I repeat: there is no mechanical difference between interactions of entities at the Micro and Macro scales of reality.
A more comprehensive understanding of reality cannot occur until a grasp of the nature and behaviour of photons of all energy levels is attained, at which stage many of the perceived mysteries of reality will be unravelled with little effort.
