With clear illustrations throughout and without recourse to quantum mechanics, the reader is invited to revisit unsolved problems lying at the foundations of theoretical physics. Maxwell and his contemporaries abandoned their search for a geometrical representation of the electric and magnetic fields. The wave-particle dilemma and Bose-Einstein statistical counting have resulted in unsatisfactory non-realistic interpretations. Furthermore, a simple structure of the hydrogen atom that includes hyperfine levels is still wanting.Working with the latest experimental data in photonics a proposed solution to the wave-particle dilemma is suggested based on an array of circular-polarized rays. The Bose-Einstein counting procedure is recast in terms of distinguishable elements. Finally, a vortex model of a 'particle' is developed based on a trapped photon. This consists of a single ray revolving around a toroidal surface, and allows a geometrical definition of mass, electric potential, and magnetic momentum. With the adjustment of two parameters, values to 4 dp for the hyperfine frequencies (MHz) of hydrogen can be obtained for which a computer program is available.

Excerpt from Treatise on the Motion of Vortex Rings: An Essay to Which the Adams Prize Was Adjudged, in 1882, in the University of Cambridge The subject selected by the Examiners for the Adams Prize for 1882 was "A general investigation of the action upon each other of two closed vortices in a perfect incompressible, fluid." In this essay, in addition to the set subject, I have discussed some points which are intimately connected with it, and I have endeavoured to apply some of the results to the vortex atom theory of matter. I have made some alterations in the notation and arrangement since the essay was sent in to the Examiners, in so doing I have received great assistance from Prof. G. H. Darwin, F.R.S. one of the Examiners, who very kindly lent me the notes he had made on the essay. Beyond these I have not made any alterations in the first three parts of the essay: but to the fourth part, which treats of a vortex atom theory of chemical action, I have made some additions in the hope of making the theory more complete: paragraph 60 and parts of paragraphs 58 and 59 have been added since the essay was sent in to the Examiners. I am very much indebted to Prof. Larmor of Queen's College, Galway, for a careful revision of the proofs and for many valuable suggestions.

The book is divided into two parts. The first part consists of seven chapters, in which are included var-ious problems and amusements of the kind usually called mathematical recreations. The questions discussed in the first of these chapters are connected with arithmetic; those in the second with geometry; and those in the third relate to mechanics. The fourth chapter contains an account of some miscellaneous problems which involve both num-ber and situation; the fifth chapter contains a concise account of magic squares; and the sixth and seventh chapters deal with some unicursal problems. The second part consists of five chapters, which are mostly histori-cal. They deal respectively with three classical problems in geometry—namely, the duplication of the cube, the trisection of an angle, and the quadrature of the circle—astrology, the hypotheses as to the nature of space and mass, and a means of measuring time.
