The Origin of Mass - A Fundamental Mechanism — •Albrecht Giese — Taxusweg 15, 22605 Hamburg

The origin of mass is one of the basic questions in our understanding of physics. The great attention being paid to the Higgs theory is an indication of it. However, the Higgs theory does not really work. Aside from its great complexity, the necessary Higgs field is contradicted by astronomical observations and the necessary Yukawa coupling needed to determine any actual mass is not provided by this theory. - On the other hand, there is a very fundamental solution for inertia based on classical physics. If two objects are bound to each other in such a way as to maintain a distance from each other, then this configuration necessarily has inertia, even if the two objects do not have any mass.

If this model is used to determine the mass of the electron, for example, then the results conform precisely to the actual measurements. For this evaluation, the size of the electron is determined by classical means from its magnetic moment. - This calculation also works for the other leptons, as well as for quarks. And it covers the relativistic behavior of mass, including Einstein's famous relation between mass and energy.

It can be shown that no other mechanism is needed in physics to explain inertia.
