Abstract

This paper investigates the spherical region of space that is bounded by the Schwarzschild radius. This is possible because the metric that describes this space-time is not the Schwarzschild metric and, therefore, does not have the Event Horizon and Black Hole pathologies. It is found that in the certain finite region of this space-time the time, as observed by a distant observer, slows down so much that it is possible to explain charge of an electron as frozen vibrations of electromagnetic field. The same effect may also explain the long neutron lifetime, the stability of typical nuclei, and the variations of radioactive nuclei decay rates that correlate with the Earth-Sun distance.
