This doesn't make a lot of sense to me. I would expect the electron to accelerate, not the heavy particle, unless...the electron happens to be located precisely between two heavy particles. I think Horace has covered this extensively in previous posts. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/project.html
