Matter : Re-imagining Electrons as Mini-Universes

<p>How would the universe appear to an observer who is larger than it? A pulsating material body or an inflating balloon? In 1997 scientists were trying to find the amount of Dark Matter needed to slow down the expansion of the universe. Surprisingly comparing the brightness of the supernovae of the distant and nearby galaxies they found that the universe was actually inflating at an accelerated rate. It was guessed that there must be some Dark Energy that was pushing the galaxies from each other. The author interprets their observation in a reverse way by correcting a probable mistake and shows it as concrete evidence of the slowing down of the universe which speaks in favour of the presence of the Dark Matter that the scientists were initially looking for. By doing this he tries to re-establish the theory of the pulsating universe as conjectured by the scientists of the twentieth century and negates the concept of the beginning of time. He also extends this to a theory of pulsating electrons which leads to a new way of understanding the equations of Maxwell and Einstein and finally to the mode of existence of the material world as a whole.</p>
