Abstract

Electromagnetic standing waves in a resonant box provide a simplistic but useful model of matter, and the resonator's dynamics are analyzed using Newtonian time, the actual speed of light, and an extension of Maxwell's equations for free space. The model offers a unifying rational basis for many of matter's dynamic characteristics including those that are often referred to as "relativistic".
