Abstract

Using Newton’s universal gravitational law but with gravitational instead of rest masses, and the de Broglie wavelength equation, we show by computing from first principles their mass that the W+ and W− bosons correspond to relativistic e+−νe and e−−νe rotating pairs. This appears consistent with the fact that W+ and W− bosons are known to decay to e+−νe and e−−νe couples, respectively.The model contains no adjustable parameters and in addition to the computed masses, potential energies, decomposition temperatures, and lifetimes, are in good agreement with experiment. This agreement can be further improved upon considering, in addition to the relativistic gravitational force, the Coulombic charge-induced dipole interactions between the charged components (positrons or electrons) and the polarizable neutrinos.
