Abstract
Based on strict validity of Maxwell’s equations in vacuum, concepts of field velocity v, rest field, basal electromagnetic (EM) field etc. are defined. Their properties lead to flow equations that have the same structure as those of fluid dynamics and thus in fact describe an EM fluid whose flow velocity is equal to v. For a photon a model is presented whose inner structure consists of such an EM fluid and exhibits all known photon properties. The corresponding model of an electron is sufficiently complete to analyse its dynamic properties, which turn out to be as required by classical relativity. The (time-independent) Schrödinger equation is obtained within the frame of the present theory.
