Abstract

By representing the Earth as a black body radiation source of photons and muons, Planck’s constant and its newly discovered complement, the Muon constant are calculated near the Earth’s surface. A new Muon energy equation is presented to complement the Plank-Einstein formula. Using Thompson Cross Section scattering equation and the Lorentz Factor, it is shown that the elusive fine structure constant is a proportionator derived from the Flux Transfer Frequency of the Sun and Mercury. Permittivity and Permeability constants are calculated in the far field of the Earth. By expanding the Earth antenna to cosmic scale, it is shown that electromagnetic waves are constructed in the far field by combining electrostatic near field photons and magnetoquasistatic muons. The traditional electromagnetic wave as defined by James Clerk Maxwell is described in terms of quantum photons and muons. The mathematical relationship between the half-life of mass, dark energy and dark matter are explored. The paper concludes that Isaac Newton’s view that Mass and Light are transmutable is expressed in a new mass light equivalence equation.

History of the Photon and Muon

Max Planck empirically derived a formula for the observed frequency spectrum of black body radiation. At the beginning of the 19th century, he determined that black-body radiation could only change its energy, E, that was proportional to the frequency of its associated electromagnetic wave [1]. Planck was able to calculate the value of h from experimental data on blackbody radiation. His result, 55.6 10 J.s, −34 × was within an error of less than 1.2% of the currently accepted value of 6.62607015 × 10 m kg s −34 2 as published by 2018 CODATA [2].
