Abstract
Model-based experimentations with globally oriented classical and semi-classical methods have retained a viability in the microphysical realm, despite the prevalence of the abstract methods of contemporary quantum physics. In chapter VIII, these model-based methods were found to emphasize the electron’s purely electromagnetic origin. While the Lorentz electron was purely electrostatic, the energy of the Dirac electron was purely magnetic, yet nature’s electron, by contrast, appears to be a blending of the two. The joint presence of electric and magnetic energy was found to relate to the magnetic moment anomaly.
