The founder of QED, Paul A. M. Dirac gave his Nobel Lecture on December 12, 1933. In this lecture he described concisely how he derived the relativistic quantum mechanics of the electron and positron. However, paragraph 9 also described his discovery of some surprisingly unexpected phenomena concerning the two motions of the electron. Incidentally, he informed the audience that these phenomena have already been fully worked out by Schrödinger. What both found is that an electron moving slowly also has a superposed lightspeed oscillatory motion of high frequency and small amplitude. This cannot be directly verified by any experiment because of the small amplitude (maybe in the order of Planck length) but indirectly responsible for the scattering of photons by the electrons. Many believed this is the turning point for a quantum field theory of the electromagnetic radiation. Nowadays, it is given the name quantum electrodynamics (QED), the most experimentally accurate physical theory ever created by the human intellect.

Today, it can be hypothesized that these two motions implicitly suggest that the electron is a composite particle and only at low energy interactions can it appear as an elementary indivisible particle. At high energy the electron can be separated into distinct space-time charges of 1 H-plus and 7 H-minuses, each with absolute value of 1/6 and +1/6-1/6-1/6-1/6-1/6-1/6-1/6-1/6=-6/6=-1 giving the electric charge of the electron. Likewise, the positron (7 H-pluses and 1 H-minus) is +1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6-1/6=+6/6=+1. Since high energy interactions of electrons and positrons produce 2 photons of high probability, these suggest that the photon is also a composite particle made of 4 H-pluses and 4 H-minuses. Similarly, the color quarks are also composites. 5 H-pluses with 1 H-minus for the up quark and 1 H-plus with 3 H-minuses for the down quark giving their respective electric charges as +2/3 and -1/3. Higher resonances imply higher oscillatory frequencies corresponding to smaller amplitudes with space-time charge configurations remain the same. These apply all to muons, tauons, strange, charm, bottom, and top quarks as well as the 3 species of neutrinos.
