QED classically - An intuitive approach

Abstract

This paper deals with QED-particles and the interaction between them on a classical level. The Maxwell-equations are used mainly. (Proofs are not used in a mathematical but intuitive sense.) In the first step the main statements are presented. The corresponding proofs are given in the second and final step. Main statements: I. An electron/positron is a sink/source of electromagnetic scalar quanta. II. These electromagnetic scalar field quanta should clearly be identified with photons. III. Charge-charge interaction is easily conceivable. IV. The magnetic vector field constitutes a flow of photons. V. It becomes clear, why a charged particle is deflected perpendicular to the magnetic field lines.
