Generalization of the Particle Spin as it Ensues from the Ether Theory
In previous papers we generalized the ether waves associated to photons, to waves generally denoted , associated to Par(m,e)s, (particles of mass m and electric charge e), and demonstrated that a Par(m,e)s is a superposition of such waves that forms a small globule moving with the velocity of this . That, at a point near to a moving , the ether velocity , i.e., the magnetic field H, is of the same form as that of a point of a rotating solid. This is the spin of the Par(m,e)s, in particular, of the electron. Then, we considered the case where e=0 and showed that the perturbation caused by the motion of a Par(m,e)s is also propagated in the ether, and is a propagating gravitational field such that the Newton approximation (NA) is a tensor Guobtained by applying the Lorenz transformation for Vm,o on the NA of the static gravitational potential of forces Gu,s. It appeared that Gu is also of the form of a Lienard-Wiechert potential tensor Au created by an electric charge.<br />In the present paper, we generalized the above results regarding the spin by showing that the ether elasticity theory implies also that like the electron, the massive neutral particle possesses a spin but much smaller than that of the electron, and that the photon can possess also a spin, when for example it is circularly polarized. In fact, we show that the spin associated to a particle is a vortex in ether which in closed trajectories will take only quantized values.<br /><br />
