New perspectives on fundamental electromagnetic relationships and their implication for fathoming physical reality

A study of fundamental, electromagnetic relationships pertaining to the structure of the cosmic vacuum space and the electron is presented. A Symmetrical MKS System of units is proposed that relates electric charge to mechanical variables. Charge squared has units of angular momentum. The fine-structure constant α is observed in relations not previously recognized. A vacuum space of electron-positron pairs is considered and the space between elementary charges is determined to be 606 fm. A model of the electron is derived, which unlike the classical electron model, can correctly accommodate the large angular spin momentum of h / 4 π . The radius of the electron is found to be 1 / 2 α times larger than the classical radius. The space polarization around a free electron is calculated, and the naked charge of the electron is shown to be e / α 1 / 2 = 11 . 706   e   J 1 / 2 s 1 / 2 . The study also unifies inertial and gravitational mass in a system of reduced units of space and time only. A new form of Newton's Gravitational Law shows the universal gravitational constant as being simply related to the speed of light. Much of this work supports Tewari's theory of the electron as a space vortex.
