Source abstract

Abstract 1. The conclusion reached in this paper is that the mass m of an elementary particle (proton and electron) is given by the quadratic equation 10m2 - 136mm0 + m02 = 0, m0 = h/2πc √N/ρ, N being the number of such particles in the universe, and ρ being the radius of curvature of an empty region equal to √(3/λ) where λ is the cosmical constant.
