Abstract

An elementary particle is described as a spherically symmetric solution of the Klein-Gordon equation and the Einstein equations of general relativity. It is found that it has a mass of the order of the Planck mass. If one assumes that the motion of its center of mass is determined by the Dirac equations, then it has a spin of 1/2.
